aesthetic taste is evidently sorely lacking in the world. To address this, the Partition Prize is now live. $1000 to the best piece of writing, as judged by me

in light of AI winning prestigious literary awards with unreadable slop, it's become clear to me that I have better taste than prestigious award panels. Therefore, I will be creating a literary prize starting at $1000 (CAD, sorry) for the best submission. Details forthcoming

I want to move to NYC so I can get lectured and finger-wagged by unpleasant rich diasporoid women whose family own slaves in the old country.

Watching a documentary on particle physics and a tour of CERN where scientists all around the world work together (including Pakistani scientists) and the part, the most heaviest where the collision happens have a sticker of Pakistan’s flag.
So I searched and found out that Pakistan did contribute to it, mainly through the Pakistan Atomic Energy Commission and the Heavy Mechanical Complex in Taxila.
They manufactured hundreds of Resistive Plate Chambers — special detectors used in the CMS experiment to catch particles from those collisions. They actually beat out big Japanese and Chinese firms for the contract.

Some meetings leave an impression; ours apparently left a fragrance.
Thank you, Mr. President @realDonaldTrump, for your generosity and for topping up this precious gift. May the spirit of that meeting continue to shape a stronger relationship between Syria and the United States.

Some U.S. lawmakers seek protections for Americans serving in the IDF, raising questions about fairness since U.S. benefits traditionally depend on service to the United States. military.com/feature/2026/04…

San Francisco feels like a city built by a lost civilization that’s now inhabited by a different people. Very different from NYC where there’s a palpable feeling of connection to the history of the city.
