Tahap teruknya lelaki sekarang, setiap kali travel dan saya perlu berhenti untuk solat, saya lebih rela memilih solat di RnR atau petrol pump.

Jarang solat di masjid/surau sebab tempat wanita selalunya sunyi. Tandas pula kadang terlalu jauh. Kena akui sesetengah masjid/surau memang tak mesra wanita.

Kebiasaannya suami akan jemaah di masjid, saya tunggu dalam kereta. Nanti berhenti mana-mana petrol pump, baru saya pula solat.

Kalau sunyi, memang suami akan tunggu depan pintu.

Kita wanita kena sangat berhati-hati sebab ramai lelaki otaknya sudah rosak. Tempat ibadah pun mereka tak kisah.

A culture that wasn’t talked about enough. Selalunya lelaki yang nampak lembut, lemah akan jadi mangsa. Few of my male friends (BUKAN GAY) kena liwat (secara paksa obviously) kat asrama, sampai traumatised and keluar daripada asrama. Dan pelaku bukan students je, tapi warden juga

INDUSTRI KERETA DUNIA DIJANGKA AKAN IKUTI LANGKAH YANG SAMA

China Haramkan Pemegang Pintu Elektronik Benam Kenderaan EV Mulai 2027

BEIJING – Kerajaan China secara rasmi mengumumkan larangan penggunaan pemegang pintu elektronik sepenuhnya bagi kenderaan elektrik (EV) baharu bermula 1 Januari 2027, susulan kebimbangan keselamatan selepas beberapa kemalangan maut berprofil tinggi.

Reka bentuk pemegang pintu jenis ‘flush’ atau pop-out yang dipopularkan oleh Tesla menerusi model Tesla Model S sebelum ini menjadi ikutan meluas dalam industri automotif global kerana tampil moden dan aerodinamik.

Bagaimanapun, teknologi tersebut kini berada di bawah penelitian ketat selepas beberapa insiden dilaporkan melibatkan kegagalan sistem kuasa ketika kemalangan, sekali gus dipercayai menghalang pintu daripada dibuka dari dalam atau luar kenderaan.

Wajib Ada Pemegang Mekanikal

Di bawah peraturan baharu itu, semua kenderaan elektrik yang dijual di China perlu dilengkapi pemegang pintu mekanikal – sama ada di bahagian dalam dan luar – sebagai langkah keselamatan tambahan.

Pihak berkuasa memaklumkan, model yang telah diluluskan dan hampir dilancarkan diberikan tempoh lanjutan sehingga 1 Januari 2029 untuk mematuhi garis panduan tersebut.

Langkah ini dilihat sebagai usaha memperkukuh standard keselamatan, khususnya dalam situasi kecemasan seperti kebakaran atau kegagalan bateri selepas pelanggaran.

Isu Keselamatan Jadi Faktor Utama

Keputusan itu dibuat susulan beberapa kemalangan maut berprofil tinggi di China yang menimbulkan persoalan sama ada sistem pintu berasaskan elektronik boleh berfungsi ketika berlaku gangguan kuasa.

Dalam beberapa laporan media tempatan, terdapat dakwaan mangsa – termasuk kanak-kanak – gagal keluar dari kenderaan kerana pintu tidak dapat dibuka selepas sistem elektrik terputus.

Walaupun kebanyakan pengeluar menyediakan mekanisme kecemasan manual tersembunyi, pakar keselamatan berpendapat reka bentuk tersebut kurang intuitif dan tidak mudah digunakan ketika panik.

Kesan Kepada Industri EV

China merupakan pasaran EV terbesar dunia. Peraturan ini dijangka memberi kesan besar kepada pengeluar tempatan dan antarabangsa yang bergantung kepada reka bentuk pemegang pintu elektronik bagi menampilkan imej futuristik.

Penganalisis industri menjangkakan pengeluar akan kembali menekankan keseimbangan antara estetika, kecekapan aerodinamik dan ciri keselamatan fizikal yang lebih jelas.

Langkah China ini juga berpotensi mempengaruhi negara lain untuk mengkaji semula piawaian keselamatan kenderaan elektrik masing-masing.

“Can I bring my baby to the interview?”

The message came in at 11 PM:

“Hi, I have an interview with you tomorrow at 2 PM. My childcare fell through. Can I bring my 8-month-old? I understand if you need to reschedule.”

Old me would have rescheduled.
Unprofessional. Distraction. Red flag.

New me replied:
“Absolutely. See you tomorrow.”

She showed up with her baby on her hip.
She apologized three times before even sitting down.

Ten minutes in, the baby started crying.
She tried to soothe him while answering questions.
She apologized again.

I stopped the interview and said:

“Hey. You’re managing a fussy baby, answering complex questions, and staying calm under pressure. That’s literally the job. Handling chaos while staying professional. You’re already proving you can do it.”

Her eyes filled with tears.

We hired her.

She’s been with us for a year now.
The most reliable team member we have.

Why?

Because when you’re used to handling a screaming infant at 3 AM and still showing up to work the next day, workplace stress feels like nothing.

Working parents, especially mothers, are some of the most organized, efficient, and resilient people you’ll ever hire.

Yet we lose them because our hiring processes are built for people with zero caregiving responsibilities.

If your interview process can’t accommodate a parent facing a childcare issue, you’re not filtering for professionalism.

You’re filtering for privilege.

@KryssyLaReina I used to work at a country club and white people definitely get their daughters ready for this at a younger age. They’re raised to be housewives with degrees and that’s how the money keeps rolling.

At the airport:

“My dear, will you be kind enough to help me take this small parcel to my daughter in Birmingham”

Don’t do it. You will go to jail.

As a rule of thumb, you should never assist anyone to carry a bag at the airport no matter the circumstances.

My wife stopped saying "thank you" when I did the dishes.

I noticed.

I was offended.

"I'm helping," I thought. "Where's the gratitude?"

One night I said it out loud.

"I did the dishes. Again."

She looked at me like I'd asked for a medal.

"You live here too."

That's when it hit me.

I wasn't "helping."

I was living in my own house and acting like a guest who occasionally tidied up.

She didn't need help.

She needed a partner who stopped waiting to be thanked for what he should've been doing anyway.

Your wife doesn't need a helper.

She needs a man who stops keeping score.

breakups are okay. losing friends is okay. moving on is okay. healing is okay. saying no is okay. being alone is okay. what is NOT okay is staying somewhere you don’t feel happy, valued, loved, or appreciated.
