iOS 26 Apple’s Next Big Leap in Mobile Experience.
A Fresh New Design: Liquid Glass One of the most talked-about highlights of iOS 26 is its “Liquid Glass” design. This fresh visual approach brings a modern, elegant look to the entire operating system. With soft, fluid elements and subtle transparency, iOS 26 looks more dynamic and alive than ever. Apple has applied the Liquid Glass aesthetic throughout the system, including areas like the Smart Stack, Control Center, and various app controls. The goal is to make the interface feel more expressive and delightful, yet still comfortable and recognizable for existing users.

🌪️ “When the Rope-Pulled Fan Stopped — and the Winds of Slavery Ceased” 🌪️
🕰️ When the British Came, the Winds of Slavery Began to Blow When the British first set foot on the rich soil of the Indian subcontinent, they didn't just seize its land, gold, and governance.

Picture this: It’s Sunday afternoon. The sun is shining, your pocket jingles with a few nickels, and all you want in this cruel, judgmental world, is an ice cream sundae topped with a cherry and a little hope. You stroll down to the corner soda shop, the bell jingles, and you ask the man behind the counter for two scoops of chocolate bliss.

Why We’re Still Obsessed with 90s Nostalgia
The 1990s: a decade of neon scrunchies, dial‑up tones, grunge music and VHS tapes. In 2025 it seems odd that today’s generation—born well after the 90s ended—are enveloped in nostalgia for an era they barely (or never) experienced. From reboots of Friends to resurgence of cassette tapes and flannel shirts, the 90s persist in pop culture. But why? Why does 90s nostalgia grip us so deeply—even two and a half decades later?
