The Need to Be Strong: The Reasons Why Men Don't Discuss Their Emotions
Are you a girl? Why are you crying?! Boys don't cry, they are meant to lead the family and be the bearers of the family. Our society has conditioned both men and women about the way they should react and behave to be deemed normal and acceptable in a social setting. It is harrowing to see societal standards and perceptions of how both genders should act and lead their lives, impacting individuals to embrace their authentic light and nurture their needs and wants.

Rot & Blather
This is the part I've never been good at … The groveling. The crawling over glass shards to return to the feet of something I thought was well behind me ... Unless it is a person standing directly in front of me — in which I can hollow myself out for, dedicate my every touch and movement to tribute a pleasure — what’s behind me is just that. Behind me.

A Bond That Slipped Away
There are moments in life when you connect with someone in an unexpected, unexplainable way. There’s no romantic involvement, no physical attraction—just a bond that feels natural, deep, and comforting. You might not even be in the same phase of life, and in some cases, there’s an age gap that makes the connection even more surprising. You can’t quite put your finger on what it is, but you find yourself gravitating towards them. The conversations feel meaningful, and their presence feels grounding.

In a recent tragic case, we discuss a vibrant young professional. Workplace culture and excessive pressure to perform were the reasons behind Anna Sebastian Perayil's death.

US Republicans Worry UK’s Chagos Islands Deal Could Strengthen China Senior U.S. Republicans have raised concerns over the British government's decision to transfer control of the Chagos Islands to Mauritius, seeing it as a potential strategic win for China.

2 Years On Basic Income
An early draft of this piece was written in a hotel room from the sunny coastal town of Denia, Spain. The temperature was forty degrees (about a hundred, for you yanks), and I was in an air-conditioned room, naked, typing. I have receipts beside me as a I tried to justify some tax deductions (an ice-tea is an expense since I’m working while drinking it, right?), and a cup of coffee begging to be refilled. The sun is radiating down on the sweat stained clothes drying on the balcony, flittering through the palm branches gently rocked by the Mediterranean breeze.
