Khalistan drivel is the figment of imagination of a few with no meaningful base in Punjab - except an irrelevant fringe which is romanticised in Canada and the UK. But it’s ability to obfuscate and hijack conversations never ends.

Breaking Bad is trending because people are talking about how #GameofThrones failed to usurp it as the greatest show of all time, but people are forgetting about this magnificent gem.

The FDA approved the very first birth control pill 59 years ago today, and the world opened up for women.

Reproductive freedom is simply the foundation of women’s ability to achieve their dreams.

We have to continue defending it. #ThxBirthControl
