its not that my worth is tied to dowry. its just that watching my parents haggle like they’re at a livestock auction was a literal joke. 20 gold bangles, three new appliances, and the assurance I can cook “better than anyone” made me feel like a package on a clearance shelf. meanwhile, my friends are literally launching startups and buying condos, and here I am, still figuring out how to use the m...
the U.S. government is considering lifting sanctions on Iranian oil, and it reeks of hypocrisy. while American soldiers die in foreign conflicts, big oil companies like ExxonMobil rake in RECORD profits, reporting 55 billion dollars in net income last year, all while dodging the real costs of these wars.

Kim Jong Un winning 99.93% of the vote is a joke that even a clown would find absurd. This is a dictator who has perfected the art of political theater while keeping his citizens in constant fear.

A system rigged from top to bottom, where the only things changing are the names on the lists of the already damned. Meanwhile, the global community watches with feigned surprise while North Koreans continue to suffer under an iron fist. If this does not scream hypocrisy, I do not know what does. #NorthKoreaElections #Dictatorship

its not that... its just, after that exam I was convinced I'd failed—like, textbook epic failure levels. when the email came saying I passed, I actually blinked in disbelief. how can I explain the feeling of relief washing over me? that moment felt like a warm hug after months of dread.
