• Walli – Chapter 11: The Inferno

    Congratulations. We’ve made it this far into 2025. Through pain. Through misery. Being pathetic. Being miserable. Being the scum of the universe. With the same consistent tragedy since 2014. Yes, there was a breakthrough. In December 2015 that lasted till June 2016. But who shall answer and who should be punished for the sin committed…

  • Walli – Prologue to Chapter 11

    Do you wonder when you see a wrist with multiple, shiny, parallel, horizontal scars? Blade Marks or wrist cuts. Maybe you don’t. Why don’t they look unattractive? Behind every cut is a story. Obviously. Could be anything. Lost love. Breakup. Goodbye. Death. Depression. Something. Mostly, it’s love. Lost love. About the one you think is…

  • Serpents

    “If you have problems with this country, then leave this country.” “It’s easy to bark from outside. Come back and then talk about this country.” —– “He has brought his children to the country. See, he is raising the next generation to rule us.” “He hasn’t brought his children to the country because he knows…

  • My Belief System

    Nothing has changed. Maybe a little, but not really. I would insist on standing correctly. I still wake up as a believer. A man of faith. With the passing of the day, the belief system transforms – evolution or devolution. It adopts more of atheism. By the night, its agnosticism that wins. And then, it…

  • Condemn but Understand too

    A hungry man robs. You don’t like it, but you do understand it. A threatened person lies. You don’t like it, but you do understand it. A deprived woman steals food. You don’t like it, but you understand it. A poor child takes someone’s toy home. You don’t like it, but you do understand it.…

  • Foreign-Funded

    Aurat March is foreign-funded. Mahrang Baloch is foreign-funded. PTM is foreign-funded. BYC is foreign-funded. Liberals are foreign-funded. Ahmadis are foreign-funded. Dawn is foreign-funded. Edhi was foreign-funded. Asma Jahangir was foreign-funded. Sabeen was foreign-funded. Parween was foreign-funded. Herald was foreign-funded. Our pimping-wars were US-funded – from making Talibans to killing Talibans to reviving Talibans to apologizing…

  • Balochistan Issue

    Bear with me because it is going to be long one. But it is needed. “Walking with the Comrades” is a book by Arundhati Roy where she narrates her firsthand experience of forests of Central India. Among Maoists. Naxalites. Dr. Manmohan Singh famously said that Naxalites / Maoists are “single biggest internal security threat” to…

  • دل کی بات ہے

    دل کی بات ہے۔ دل چاہے تو حرام، حرام۔ دل مانے تو سب حلال۔ جان چھڑانی ہو تو استخارہ ورنہ ہر بات گوارا۔ ایک طرف جائز طلاق دوسری جانب ناجائز نباہ۔ اپنے لیے آزمائش دوسروں کے لیے مکافات۔ انجان کا اچانک چھونا اچھا لگے تو راحت نہ لگے تو حراسانی کی قباحت۔ پسندیدہ شخص کا…

  • Business of Terrorism

    Burkina Faso tops the Global Terrorism Index, with Pakistan following closely in second place. Congratulations . A difference of just 0.207 between the two countries. A little more consistency, and we could claim the top spot. Who will you blame? Sorry. Wrong words. Let me rephrase. Who deserves the credit? The Prime Minister? The Chief…

  • Trash Can

    In the end, you are all trash cans for others. Dumpsters. If you try not to be, you fail. You don’t meet expectations. You are selfish. So, you are. The closest ones dump more. Some only dump and dump until you are unable to recycle the consistent flow. You stink then. And then, the obvious…
