in all my years studying psychology a gender difference that interests me the most is why men usually have terrible handwriting and women rarely do. same classes, same workbooks (cursive too), and yet i could not tell you one man i have ever known with good penmanship

This year when Karachi floods again during Moonsoon and it will, remember that this is what happens when your mayor celebrates projects that are build over river pathways. These are not natural disasters, these are disaster CREATED by @murtazawahab1, @SindhGovt1 and @PPP_Org.

No matter what anyone tells you, the problem with Pakistan is quite simple: there are working classes of this country on one hand and the rich, feudal lords, imperialists and their lackeys on the other. No progress can be made as long as these two co-exist #TumaranhiHumaraMulk

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

The only reason this city is functioning is because of the tireless labour of its working classes, warna Sindh government se tu aik road bhi nhi ban rhi #TumaranhiHumaraShehar

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

While Murtaza Wahab brags about creating expressways for the rich, this is the real Karachi for the majority of working classes. Yeh hai asli Peoples Party ka kaam. PPP are parasites to the people of Sindh and Karachi #TumarannhiHumaraShehar

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

Mayor Wahab's photography team has done more work in Karachi than the entire KMC, KDA and Sindh Government combined.

The 13,000 homes destroyed in Bari Imam are not just numbers, they are 13,000 mothers, fathers, sisters, friends, community members, memories and loved ones. They are 13,000 STORIES that are reduced to rubble through these supposedly 'sacred' anti encroachment laws.

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

The fact that @PakPMO halted @CDAthecapital from evicting an elite One Constiution Avenue building, but had no second thoughts demolishing 12,000 working class homes in Bari Imam shows that encroachment is a made up issue. Your 'legality' only matters when you have no money.

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

Sindh government competence level:

Completing projects like University Road project, providing clean water supply, electricity and drainage: ❌

Demolishing the homes of poor people in Pinyari and Gujjar Nullah to build yet another illegal road: ✅

Before I could ask what was wrong, I was already looking at her face.

The child sat in front of me. Her mother was beside her. She was small and very quiet. Her face was covered in red, swollen bites. There were too many of them. It seemed disproportionate, as if her face could not contain them.

I leaned closer.

The mother stopped me.

“That’s not the problem, doctor,” she said. “They are mosquito bites. It is like this every day.”

She said it without hesitation.

Then she explained why she had come. The child had severe diarrhea. It had started after drinking milk distributed by an international organization.

I wrote the prescription. The case itself was simple.

But I kept thinking about the face.

Not because of the bites, but because they no longer meant anything. They had lost their status as a problem. They belonged to the order of things.

The mother was almost surprised that I had noticed them.

It seemed that I was the one who did not understand.

There are places where suffering is no longer an event. It becomes a condition. Something continuous, like the air.

In such places, distinctions disappear. What should alarm us no longer does. What should be temporary settles into permanence.

A child can be covered in bites and it is nothing unusual.

Children sleep among insects and rodents. They fall ill from what is given to sustain them. Each day is organized around endurance.

No one calls this life. But it continues.

One adapts. That is perhaps the most troubling part.

Because adaptation gives the appearance of order. It creates the illusion that things can go on like this.

But there are limits that should not be crossed.

When they are, the world does not collapse. It simply becomes quieter.

And in that quiet, what is intolerable begins to resemble the normal.

Oil is the most Lovecraftian thing that actually exists. You're telling me that there's a black ichor under the earth, made from the ancient dead, whose burning can realize all the dreams of man but only at the price of slowly returning the earth to its primordial state?

[SRG @SanaRGondal]

Dear friends, did you know the mutasireen of Gujjar Nala are on their 4th consecutive day of protesting outside the Sindh High Court? Their homes were brutally and unjustly demolished 4 years ago. Their gov still owe them their dues. Please help amplify their struggle ♥️🙏🏽

[Karachi Bachao Tehreek @StopEvictionKHI]

We are extremely grateful to our comrades in media outlets who highlight local issues and show their solidarity with the affectees by holding the state accountable through their coverage.
