SUMMARY:Satire and the Anatomy of Authority
DESCRIPTION:Your phone is making you miserable. You already know this.  \nRachita Taneja\, aka Sanitary Panels\, wrote a book about it anyway. \nTouching Grass is sharp\, funny\, and quietly furious\, examining how algorithmic politics has reshaped our attention\, our outrage\, and our sense of agency. Without looking away from the forces that feed the machine\, the book traces how public discourse is increasingly filtered through platforms\, narrowing the space for meaningful citizenship.  \nGraphic novelist Appupen joins Rachita for a conversation around the harder questions the book raises: how to stay informed without being consumed\, how to move beyond cycles of doomscrolling and exhaustion\, and what it might mean to be genuinely useful in the world rather than merely outraged by it. \nAn audience Q&A and book signing will follow. \n
