Israel Strike in Qatar: Hamas Leaders Targeted During Ceasefire Talks
On September 9, the fragile diplomatic balance in the Middle East was shaken when Israel launched a precision strike in Doha, Qatar. The operation targeted senior Hamas leaders, including chief negotiator Khalil al-Hayya, at a time when ceasefire discussions were underway.

The Psychology of Regret: Why We Can’t Let Go of the Past
Regret is one of those emotions that almost everyone carries like an invisible backpack. It shows up in small ways—like wishing you had spoken up in a meeting—or in heavier forms, such as replaying a failed relationship or career choice over and over in your mind. Psychologists call regret a counterfactual emotion because it grows from imagining “what could have been” if only we had chosen differently. And while regret can be painful, understanding how it works in the human brain can help us learn how to move forward instead of getting trapped in endless “what ifs.”

We live in an age where connection has never been easier. A single tap can bring someone’s face onto our screen from across the globe. We scroll through lives, emotions, and stories at the speed of a swipe. Yet, paradoxically, loneliness is at its highest recorded levels.

The Secret Life of Everyday Objects
M Mehran Every morning, Liam made the same routine mistake. He poured cereal into a bowl, reached for the carton of milk—and discovered it was empty. Not because someone else had drunk it, but because he had forgotten, again, that yesterday’s carton was the last one.

What Came First: The Bible or Sausages?
If you're like me then welcome, curiosity must have gotten the best of you. We all know the infamous question "What came first, the Chicken or the Egg?" or "Why did the Chicken cross the Road?". These seemingly absurd questions keep me up at night. That is why, when I stumbled upon this question, I knew I had to know more. At first glance, it seems obvious that an ancient scripture such as the Bible must be far older than something as familiar to us as a sausage. But then, doubt begins to settle, and before you know it, curiosity takes over, and you end up clicking on a blog like this one to find out the truth. You're not weak, my friend, you are inquisitive.
