UPDATE: It's now confirmed that the 17 year old son of this Pakistani father HAS BEEN DEPORTED TO AFGHANISTAN. This is an absolute mockery of an entire ethnicity, an entire people, who ARE PAKISTANIS. A 17 year old son has been sent away WHILE HIS FATHER waited outside.

He's a Pakistani. His father is Pakistani. He has his documents. But because his 17 year old son still doesn't have his CNIC as we all get it at 18, he's been detained and now the father is being told that "we've sent him away". Where? His father is outside the detention center.

Khuda k liye someone stop Kashmir Beats. It's embarrassing. It's bad. Puri duniya mein hamaray music ki waah waah hai imagine if someone comes across the atrocity that is Hira Mani on Kashmir Beats. It's a crime against Pakistan.

Yesterday, my daughter Haris came out as transgender. I’ve never been prouder of her. She has taught our family so much about bravery and truth. I know this process was painful for her. She is sober to the cruelty trans people are subjected to. But she is strong and undaunted.

Every time there is a crisis in Pakistan, it's the unwavering support and collaborative energy of young Pakistanis that gives me hope. Pakistan, if it ever rises, will rise from this energy, and it's a shame that we never fully developed our youth and we're always afraid of them

Really distressing need coming in from Punjab. A university student was gangraped almost to death for being "feminine" and "almost trans" according to her friends in Lahore. Another was hacked to death by her family in the name of honour for being trans in Bahawalpur

I've always said transphobia is and will always be perpetuated by the elite bourgeoise but hide behind over zealous religious vigilantes. Goli beshak ap ka middle class fanatic chalaye, lekin moral policing ki philosophy yeh elite bourgeoise hi laatay hain

People opposed to women's rights and Aurat March are either: 1. Privileged enough to not be bothered by everyday misogyny OR 2. Directly benefit from everyday misogyny. There's no third option #AuratMarch2023

On PTI's decisive victory in Khyber Pakhtunkhwa: It's a hard day for all of us who campaigned for ANP. The public has spoken; their vote is their power which we all must respect in the spirit of democracy and nationhood. This was a very well fought battle by all; we all

You can disagree with IK, PTI, and the Long March but you have to be a special breed of perverted to slut shame women who are participating and making sexualize memes. Learn some from PPP Multan that issued clear directives NOT to attack Mehar Bano especially on gendered grounds.

Our country and society is full of amazing surprises - and as I'm transitioning so many of my worst fears and anxieties are being put to rest. Just today, it was day 1 of this guy who I hired for help at the house. He came over, I was in regular casual clothes, no makeup...

I did Quetta and Ziarat for the first time after transitioning, which includes travelling late in the night in Balochistan and all that jazz and I'm in awe of the hospitality, the comfort, and the absolute sense of safety that I was given by the people, my hosts, and friends.
