I hate how social media makes us forget that life has stages. It’s normal to be broke, to have broke friends or partners and yes it’s even normal to be unemployed at times. These are phases we all go through.
Some people are lucky enough to find good jobs at a young age and afford a certain lifestyle. Others take longer and that’s perfectly okay. We need to stop comparing ourselves and start accepting our journey. I just want all of us to be at peace with where we are in life while still working and striving for better.
Trust me saying this since I have delivered hundreds of patients who have conceived by ASSISTED REPRODUCTIVE TECHNIQUES (ART) in which IVF/ ICSI are a part of.
It’s very easy to give advice on egg freezing when you have crores in the bank.
IVF costs lakhs per cycle. Egg freezing costs lakhs upfront plus annual storage charges.
Most young women listening to you can’t afford even one attempt.
I deliver these babies.
I also see the couples crying through failed cycles - the injections, the disappointments, the mounting bills, the PTSD that lingers, mostly for ever.
Biology doesn’t care about your career timeline.
Fertility peaks in your twenties, declines in your thirties, drops sharply after 35. Freezing eggs isn’t a guarantee. It’s a gamble with modest success rates.
By all means, build your career.
But don’t sell young women the fantasy that technology is a safety net.
For most, it’s a last resort they’ll pay for with their savings, their mental health, and often their dreams of parenthood.
Privilege is thinking IVF is a backup plan.
Reality is watching patients break down recounting the trauma of going through it.
Do not be so insensitive, bordering on cruelty.
If there’s one thing I wish I had done differently when I was hit by a stroke last January, it would be to go to the hospital immediately, within the Golden Hour (<4.5 hours), instead of thinking I could just sleep it off.
This “nothing will happen to me” attitude is common, especially among those under 50. But the truth is, strokes are rising sharply, up to nearly 30% of all strokes in the last few years, among 30 to 50-year-olds.
When it comes to strokes, time is brain; every minute counts.
Thanks to @timesofindia for featuring this on World Stroke Day today.
In a new quantum experiment, scientists saw something that challenges everything we think we know about time. Instead of flowing forward like a river, time seemed to loop and fold back on itself. Particles behaved as if their future could affect their past, blurring the line between cause and effect in ways that defy ordinary understanding.
This strange behavior was observed through quantum entanglement a phenomenon where two particles remain mysteriously linked, no matter how far apart they are. When scientists changed how they measured one particle, it seemed to alter the history of its partner retroactively. It’s as if “now” and “then” exist together, constantly reshaping each other in a single, connected moment.
The findings hint that time may not be a one-way path but a flexible structure that bends and connects distant events. Your choices don’t rewrite your past, but on a quantum level, the universe might not follow the rules of linear order at all. Reality could be stranger than we’ve ever imagined.
If you pay attention to the patterns of your life, you’ll realise that everything always works out. Everything always takes you to a greater destination. You always grow, and the things you think you can't survive, you somehow divinely make it through. That's life. Remember that.
This might be the most disturbing AI paper of 2025 ☠️
Scientists just proved that large language models can literally rot their own brains the same way humans get brain rot from scrolling junk content online.
They fed models months of viral Twitter data short, high-engagement posts and watched their cognition collapse:
- Reasoning fell by 23%
- Long-context memory dropped 30%
- Personality tests showed spikes in narcissism & psychopathy
And get this even after retraining on clean, high-quality data, the damage didn’t fully heal.
The representational “rot” persisted.
It’s not just bad data → bad output.
It’s bad data → permanent cognitive drift.
The AI equivalent of doomscrolling is real. And it’s already happening.

TV in the 90s: you turn it on, you watch.
TV 2025:
- turn on, wait for it to load
- popup: TV wants to update, 1.5GB. No.
- scroll sideways, find prime video app or etc
- popup: now app wants to update, 500MB. No!!
- App launching... App loading…
- select account screen
- 🫠
@MehulFanawala That's such an encouraging approach.
I'm thinking of starting something and I keep wondering who will agree to come when I'm small!
This gives hope ☺️
