The Cry of the Deep Sea
(Part 1) As usual, we were preparing to go fishing. Me and my 15 fellow laborers, who work with me on the boat, were getting ready. Before dusk, we packed the nets, flashlights, food, and everything else, then set sail. Crossing the river, we slowly moved into the deep sea. The wind was cold, the stars twinkled faintly in the sky. The sea was calm, yet an unfamiliar emptiness seemed to linger in the air.

I Paid $10 for a ‘Haunted’ Doll on eBay—Now I Can’t Sleep
It started as a dare. My friend Dylan and I were deep into one of those late-night YouTube spirals—paranormal investigations, ghost hunters, creepy Reddit stories—when he turned to me and said, “I bet you won’t actually buy one of those haunted dolls.”

Can India and Pakistan de-escalate tensions after Pahalgam attacks?
India and Pakistan are in the middle of their biggest crises in years, after the terror attack in India-administered Kashmir, where 26 people—25 Indian civilians and a Nepali—were massacred while picnicking in a meadow near the town of Pahalgam on April 22, 2025. Both nuclear-armed nations have fired war rhetoric and hostile diplomatic offensives, shaking the stability of the region and the rest of the world, already dealing with two ongoing, deadly wars, and a fragile world order. Needless to say, both nations must urgently engage in de-escalation. But the political reality of de-escalating the current volatile situation between India and Pakistan is much easier said than done. There's little precedent that the nuclear-armed nations would spike a hot war; however, the short-and long-term stability in South Asia after the deadly Pahalgam attacks appear bleaker than ever before.Though India and Pakistan have exchanged fire across the Line of Control (LoC) since the deadly attack, threats of military actions have echoed louder than actual military actions. But alarming non-kinetic responses have dominated the tit-for-tat exchanges. India has put in abeyance, the historical Indus Water Treaty—a water-sharing agreement brokered by the World Bank in 1960, that has survived three wars between the two nations. The Indus treaty governs the distribution of waters from the river and its tributaries, which feed 80 percent of Pakistan's agricultural sector. If India cuts Pakistan's access to the Indus River, the long-term blows to Pakistan's agrarian economy and its people would be dire. Pakistan has also suspended the Simla Agreement, which among other matters recognises the LoC as the de facto international border between the nuclear-armed nations in Kashmir.

The Haunting of Hill House
'I was right here and none of you could see me.’ No matter how many times I re-watch The Haunting of Hill House, when Nellie says these lines, it breaks my heart all over again. The words couldn’t be simpler, yet they carry enormous weight. How many of us have lived the exact feeling described in these words, where we feel like we have become invisible to the world. The cruel, ruthless world that keeps going, oblivious to our pain and heartbreak. This is the beauty of Mike Flanagan’s retelling of Shirley Jackson’s classic book. While many horror movies and series are considered masterpieces, and rightfully so, I truly feel that The Haunting of Hill House is in a league of its own.
