Pakistan is no Switzerland, but it's also not a hell on earth that Afghanistan has become under religious fundamentalists like T@liban.
The day Pakistan gets taken over by similar forces would be the day this country becomes completely unlivable.
Nationalists' untiring effort to ensure that the country doesn't forget its modernist roots, and the history is re-told to every generation, has kept it barely livable.
Otherwise, without a handful of sane influential people, it'd have turned into a hellhole a long time ago.
We Pakistanis are extremists by nature.
Every province has its own flavour of extremism. KP has Deobandi jihadi extremism, Punjab has Barelvi mob lynchers, Balochistan ethno-fascists, and Sindh class-based discrimination.
Primitive medieval people, zero law and order, discriminatory constitution, outdated educational system, dumb as fuck generals, useless and visionless populist politicians.
The world is shocked that we haven't imploded yet.
As a man I say, the world would’ve been so much better without men.
we have treated women too badly for centuries.
apologies to women on behalf of the men community.
Just blocked a female friend because she forgot she was just friend and started calling me "my love, etc." from past few days. Girls should know that if a guy is nice to you, doesn't mean he’s your bf, He hasn't allowed you to flirt. Not all guys welcome this cheapness!
my scientific heroes are not celebrities.
they are people who changed how humans see reality.
• newton → turned motion into mathematics. showed that the heavens and earth follow the same rules.
• faraday → saw invisible fields before the math caught up. pure intuition, experiments, and obsession.
• maxwell → unified electricity, magnetism, and light into one framework. insane compression of reality.
• tesla → thought in systems, energy, machines, and transmission. engineering imagination at full voltage.
• einstein → broke common sense and rebuilt space, time, gravity, and light from first principles.
• feynman → made hard physics feel alive. clarity, play, and deep understanding without fake seriousness.
• turing → showed that thought itself could be formalized into computation.
• von neumann → one of the rare minds who could move between math, computing, physics, and systems.
what they all had in common:
they didn’t just collect knowledge.
they saw patterns underneath reality,
compressed them into principles,
and gave humanity new tools to think with.
that’s the kind of mind worth studying.
