لاہ ہنیرا جہل بُرے دا ،چانن لا عقل دا. لائل پور پنجابی سلیکھ میلے تے رلت دا سدا
ਲਾਹ ਹਨੇਰਾ ਜਹਿਲ ਬੁਰੇ ਦਾ ,ਚਾਨਣ ਲਾ ਅਕਲ ਦਾ
ਲਾਇਲਪੁਰ ਪੰਜਾਬੀ ਸੁਲੇਖ ਮੇਲੇ ਤੇ ਰਲਤ ਦਾ ਸੱਦਾ

Hi tweeps.
Would any of you like to volunteer for @TCFPak and send more kids in Pakistan to school or mentor them?
There are 2 programs starting immediately (mentoring one requires 6 Saturday mornings on-campus, and the fundraising one is 3 hrs per week remote).
Please RT.

Tonight, our hearts are in Bethlehem, where the Prince of Peace is once more rejected by the futile logic of war, by the clash of arms that even today prevents him from finding room in the world. #Christmas

Gaza is under intense bombing.
Telecommunications have been cut.
We can't get through to our family who have been trapped in this war zone for almost 3 weeks.
We can only pray they survive the night.
How many more children have to die before the world says enough?
On a flight today, I was seated next to a middle aged man who was leaning towards my seat and while resting on his seat's arm rest, most of his arm was in my space. I noticed I was scooting gradually and tilting away uncomfortably for a while. But if I moved a little (1/4)
- even to turn the page of the book I was reading, I had to mindfully evade brushing against his arm.
The situation was very simple. He was in my space. And I believe I'm a strong independent woman who doesn't fear speaking her mind, yet (2/4)
I was so uncomfortable asking him to move, stay in his own space, and reclaim my own. And even after I asked politely and he moved, I felt guilty about the possibility of making him uncomfortable. Such micro struggles remind me of much bigger issues that women face. (3/4)
#ZindagiTamasha by @KhoosatFilms is a gem. Like all art, we decide what it means to us. So many beautiful messages. What stood out for me the most was Arif Hassan's exceptional performance! So subtle yet so powerful. 👏
Deserves a watch (and a contribution).
Sharing on behalf of Arizona Dental Clinic in Y block, Lahore. Might help someone who's looking for a job.
Been reading all kinds of things about #Barbie and without giving any spoilers, I want to share my two cents:
- It's satire - please don't comment on it if you don't get the genre.
- It is NOT anti-men. It's anti patriarchy
- The ban in Punjab is absurd and illogical.
I'm on a bus right now on the motorway and a child is yelling "mama shark, mama shark!!!" enthusiastically, looking out of the window into the fields.
I wanna have what he's having.
Girls - please keep pepper sprays and taser guns handy when you go out. Unfortunately, you never know when you'll need them.

Please help me and my friends understand these lyrics. We spent hours trying to comprehend but no luck. I was sure of the lyrics in my head growing up but no search has verified my version 😂 Please tell me what you understand!
Barsaat ki barish mai nahana, Lahore chatkhara ki bhel puri, Karachi gali ka Bun Kabab aur gari k sheeshon mai say aati thandi hawa - oh what a day ❤️
