Back To Work
My wife believes wholeheartedly that the week starts on Sunday, however I cannot abide by that and begin the first full week of 2026 on Monday the 5th of January, the last day of the winter break. We originally plan to drink some energy drinks and power through from 1:00 AM all the way through to the evening in order to fix our sleep schedules which have been ravaged by two weeks of no routines or outside influences.

Empaths Don’t Need Thicker Skin, They Need Better Boundaries
Being an empath is often treated like a badge of honor. You’re the one people turn to when they’re overwhelmed, confused, or hurting. You listen deeply, sense emotional shifts instantly, and care in ways that feel natural and instinctive. But over time, that constant emotional openness can come at a cost.

Ugh! This Again
Ugh! This Again Good riddance 2025. The holidays and big spending are through. Time to pay debt off and save a little something. But wait! Every channel on the television is pandering for rent type of donations. A commitment. And I don’t even get a ring on it.

Human by AI Design
I had a moment recently where I contemplated what is even genuine anymore in the digital space. Humans were destined to be predictable in our unethical use of AI, I cannot think of any popular user generated platform online that has not been exploited or oversaturated in one way or another. Money, power and dominance are the pillars of society, so it is no surprise the rapid development of AI coincides with the human condition.

Doomed To Fail
Let’s get the New Year rolling with failure. That should put a nice and encouraging spin on the entire year, make us feel accomplished and good about ourselves.

I've Had Enough
The alarm rings, it’s 6:30. I hot snooze. I’m tired and not ready. It goes off again almost ten minutes later. Not exactly ten minutes. It’s more like nine minutes. Who does that? Who makes or wants a nine minute snooze? Does that one minute make a difference in the cost of production, or is it some like of psychology? Id anyone knows, please inform me.

The Clean Up
The holidays are done and reality has returned, along with those pounds you lost during the entire year and now have to lose all over again. Don’t cringe. We all do it. It’s the holidays, when all the things you have gone without all year, come seeping out of every corner of everyone’s kitchens.

When Generals Rule and Generation Pay the Price . Content Warning.
I was reading the viral article by a Gen Z, Nizamani and felt that I was listening to Mamdani the Mayor of New York another Gen Z. As a baby boomer I must be worried about the situation and acknowledge that it is really over, but the occupant generals, bureaucrats and so-called puppet politicians will not understand that the time for baby boomers is over and ready to listen the music of Gen z and Alpha. We must go back in the history of Pakistan where the generals took over the country and drove it into desolation. First General came to power in 1957 and left the country in humiliation in the beginning he was a hero when he left he was called a dog, I must say he was better than all other occupiers, the country saw some development, infrastructure, industry and agriculture improving, In one part of the country looks better but in other part the hate and felling of betrayal growing, the credit of development can not be given to army general the credit goes to efficient and patriots buroucrates young and energetic graduates took part in Pakistan movement with Quaid Azam and played a crucial role to establish the different departments of country, the baby boomers of the time sincer, educated and full of energy. In the development phase, democracy was lost and naked dictatorship emerged.

The Dual Edge of the Digital Revolution: Social Media’s Rapid Growth and the Proliferation of Explicit Content
The dawn of the 21st century heralded a communication revolution unlike any other, with social media platforms emerging from niche digital communities to integral facets of global society. The growth has been extraordinary: in 2004, MySpace was the first platform to hit a million users, yet by 2025, over 5.17 billion people—roughly 64.4% of the world’s population—were using social media daily. This rapid development has democratized information access, facilitated global connections, and created a multi-billion dollar advertising industry. However, this expansion has a dark undercurrent: the widespread, often inadvertent, emergence of sexually explicit content and pornography in user feeds and even, at times, advertisements. This phenomenon presents a complex challenge for platforms, users, and global regulators striving to balance free expression with user safety, particularly for minors.

The Fear of Becoming Irrelevant in a Rapidly Changing World
There is a quiet anxiety many people carry today, even if they rarely talk about it out loud. It shows up in small moments of doubt, in passing thoughts late at night, and in sudden comparisons we didn’t intend to make. It’s the fear that the world is moving forward too fast and that somehow, we are being left behind.

The People Who Sit by the Window
Buildings blurred into one another, storefronts flickered past like unfinished thoughts, and the sunlight slipped through the windows at an angle that made everything feel temporary. Emma always sat by the window. Not because she loved the view, but because it gave her something to focus on when her thoughts became too loud.

January 2
January 2 Captain’s Log Star date: January 2, 2026 Another Christmas and New Year have gone by and I just watched my heart drive away, taking another tiny piece of me with him. This happens every time my son visits and then head home. He’s may only son, so, the ache feels painfully deep.
