I received an email saying that because of my application for federa student assistance with my tuition, I may be eligible for SNAP food assistance. Can't hurt to try, right? Threw an application in to see what I can get, since my unemployment benefits will not actually cover rent+bills already.

Apparently, as a full-time student (9-5 plus time outside class for studying) who is not currently working a minimum of 20 hours a week, I am not eligible for food assistance.

Let me repeat that: as someone who is trying to focus my energy on my education because it will get me a state license to work on people's hair and skin, I cannot get financial assistance to feed myself.

If I could work 20 hours a week on top of my 40+ hours of classes, without burning the fuck out, I wouldn't be bothering to see if I can get assistance.

This country is so fucking backwards. And now it's only going to get worse.

Faatima, pardon me if you’ve already posted/been asked this before, and I know you’ve already answer this in part when talking to me before, but I’d love to hear what ur top fave Pakistani dramas are, with as much or as little detail as you’d like! 🩷🫶🏽📜

i don't think i've ever gone into detail with specific recs so this is a good opportunity to do so omg ty hiba 🥺

daam (2010) - two women from starkly different class backgrounds are friends and attend medical school together. maleeha (upper class) takes on an almost paternalistic role with zara (lower class) by handing her down clothes, incorporating her into her friend group, etc., despite zara's own self sufficiency outside of her financial situation. the role maleeha plays in zara's life is one zara is eternally grateful for, but maleeha never seems to move past a recognition of her own self-importance. so much so, that when maleeha learns zara may have feelings for her brother, junaid, she feels used and threatens to revoke all of the assistance she has been giving zara's family for years. it's a hard-hitting exploration into the impact of class stratification on friendship and the inherent biases that color upper class pakistanis' interactions with lower class pakistanis. and i enjoy the realism of forgiving people for their transgressions but not necessarily moving backwards in time to reforge the bonds you once used to have (no eng sub)

jackson heights (2014) - an ensemble focused drama set in jackson heights, new york. it's a wonderfully vivid depiction of a variety of working class pakistanis and one that manages to remain down to earth while nonetheless highlighting hard hitting issues, particularly emotional, financial, and physical abuse. it's hard to describe but one thing the drama does really well is not valorize its abuse victims. they aren't saints for riding out the horrors of the violence enacted against them. they're only people moving through the world like anyone else. there was a tendency in pakistani dramas of this era to dramatize the idolization of the west via the lens of unattainable romance, but this drama is far more successful in portraying the realities you have to come to terms with when you uproot yourself from your homeland and start from scratch and work a menial job. in that sense i think it's a triggering drama in a lot of ways, but never gratuitous, and very thoughtful as to its themes and conclusions (no eng sub)

raqeeb se (2021) - this play is very cryptic in a lot of ways (standard fare for screenwriter bee gul) but it does a great job at adhering to realities without necessarily fetishizing them. the storyline focuses exclusively on the intergenerational trauma of two pairs of women connected by one man. maqsood is from a gaon and once tried to run away with sakina, only for someone else to be killed in the process. as a result, sakina had to stay behind and raised a daughter ameera with an abusive husband, while maqsood was married to hajra and moved to the city where they had their daughter insha. years later sakina flees from her husband's abuse and takes her daughter to the only place she knows: maqsood's. but what's interesting about this setup is that maqsood and sakina's love story is so well known in the former's household that maqsood's wife hajra bears sakina and her daughter no ill will. she takes them in, cares for them, and shoulders their grief, all while her daughter insha watches in bewilderment. it's an incredibly captivating story in the face of so many others that would rather use love and men to sew seeds of revenge and malice between women. ultimately, ameera and insha are used to explore how women can forge their own histories and choices despite the duties and blame their mothers were bounded to by tradition (no eng sub)

sar e rah (2023) - most pak dramas in the past decade have been unforgivably long (a below-thirty episode run is unheard of now even though we used to wrap up stories in little more than twenty episodes pre-2014ish) but we're slowly seeing the rise of the miniseries, and this drama is a stellar recent example. each episode centers on a different character struggling with a societal issue. rania takes over her father's taxi driving business when he gets sick despite concerns that it is no job for a woman. dr. muzna adopts a child but subsequently deals with her husband's rejection bc he sees it as an exposure of his impotence that he has not divulged to his own mother. rameen faces familial accusations of shamelessness bc she is a tik tok star and fights to maintain her right to an inheritance when her brother seeks to disown her. sarim is a trans man brought up with love and acceptance from his father but rejection and bigotry from his step mother and step brother. and maryam is a working woman forced to take a stand for herself when constantly underestimated and even falsely accused due to workplace misogyny. it's altogether not a perfect but nonetheless significantly forward thinking drama despite societal standards, and saba qamar (rania) connects all of these characters together masterfully in a major call to action (full eng sub)

dil na umeed to hani (2021) - the central focus of this drama is human trafficking and child labor. allah rakhi and jamshed are childhood friends from the same village who are quickly made to part ways due to extenuating circumstances. allah rakhi is married off to an older man who sells her into prostitution, while jamshed runs away from home after suffering abuse from the adults in his life. the drama mainly follows both characters in their adult years, when allah rakhi finally attempts to escape the prison of the brothel, while jamshed works at a shelter for sex trafficking victims. there's also another younger character, naseem, who dreams of becoming a national women's cricketer despite being faced with her father's misogyny and the threat of human trafficking herself. this is overall an incredibly raw and painful story so novel in its attempt to highlight certain societal issues that it was nearly banned from broadcast in the country. yumna zaidi and wahaj ali are breathtaking in roles that are essentially the culmination of all of their years of hard work on more niche indie projects, and their characters' reunion towards the end of the drama will send any viewer into tears (partially eng sub)

these are probably the most well-rounded dramas that i feel really proud of recommending. while romance is a present element in some of them it's never the central element and i don't feel unnecessarily harsh in saying that our portrayals of romance still have a really long way to go to the point that i wouldn't necessarily rec any drama where romance was the focus lmao.. like i have my guilty pleasures (i rewatch humsafar often for mahira khan and fawad khan's chemistry alone despite its severe issues) but they're mostly me being willing to indulge in garbage for the sake of a) an actor's skill; b) a lead couple's chemistry; or c) a female character whom i would protect with my life despite her being trapped in the shittiest narrative imaginable

that being said, some other dramas i have also enjoyed over the years:

kuch ankahi (ongoing) -> great ensemble cast and exploration of several issues with a balance of comedy and subtlety. sajal aly and bilal abbas khan are also phenomenal in the lead roles and probably share the best on-screen chemistry of any of their peers at the moment

yunhi (ongoing) -> the set-up is a bit cringe, but the ideas it's ultimately exploring about hypocritical perceptions both diaspora and homeland pakistanis have of each other is really interesting and the tone of the drama is very calm and down to earth rather than overly dramatic or melancholic

fairy tale (2023) -> this is the only ramadan drama i'm going to put on here lmao but it's recently gone viral bc frankly despite all of its flaws (not owing to any weird societal views, only investment in plot points and side characters who are frankly uninteresting) the chemistry and comedic timing between the two leads is genuinely insane. it's a bit cliched from time to time but they really do have me smiling silly every day even though the drama's over like look at them look at them look at theeeeem

chauraha (2022) -> it's very common in pakistani media that a girl is either kidnapped or stockholm syndromed into loving a man so i really love this one bc it shows a girl get kidnapped and refuse to romanticize the situation while also remaining adamant as to her own independence rather than allowing societal pressure to force her into marrying someone to save her image

jo bichar gaye (2022) -> period drama about the events that set the stage for bangladesh's separation from pakistan. largely applauded for not romanticizing or skirting over pakistan's transgressions in alienating and harming east pakistanis/bangladeshis

dastaan (2010) -> period drama about a woman's experience before, during, and after partition. noted for its commentary on women in this era and how they faced resounding sexual violence, whether from hindu, sikh, or muslim men

o rangreza (2019) -> the pak drama version of that one essay excerpt about how the daughter ridicules her mother by establishing camaraderie with her father. a really interesting insight into how pakistani daughters can sometimes be so disgusted with their mothers' culturally curated subservience that their attempts to gain independence are also built on internalized misogyny

durr e shehwar (2012) -> a bit of a dated drama in that it recounts the experience of a woman through the early years of her marriage and the patience it took for her to win over her husband and his family. i'm sure there would be complaints now about how this drama romanticized that patience despite all of the pain and isolation the female lead suffered but i also think it's largely cathartic bc it doesn't chastise women in similar circumstances

badshah begum (2022) -> is this drama good? no. does it have anything productive to say about mob mentality and tribalism in rural pakistani villages? no. are any of the female characters truly independent and strong in the best sense of the word? maybe only one. but the ost is a banger and the performances by everyone are genuinely phenomenal so i'm putting it here anyway lmao

yaqeen ka safar (2017) -> this drama shot sajal aly and ahad raza mir to superstardom and marriage which has now unfortunately ended in divorce. but at the time their chemistry was phenomenal so while i have nitpicky issues with the plot i do enjoy the drama for the development of their relationship alone like it was pretty sweet

humsafar (2011) -> obv i said above that it's garbage and i stand by that but the chemistry between the leads here really was unprecedented for its time and has remained largely unrivaled in the industry. i also am able to rewatch for mahira khan's portrayal of khirad alone and some of the dialogues are so [clenches fist]

zindagi gulzar hai (2012) -> another super flawed drama but i really enjoy the portrayal of a female lead who struggles with coming around to the idea of marriage and baring herself to someone else bc of the trauma of growing up with a severely neglectful father. it's just real to see a girl freak out about her agency and about admitting to feelings she may have bc she is terrified at the thought of being vulnerable and weak. like that's literally me

Unlocking Opportunities with the SVMCM Scholarship: Empowering the Future of Education

Education is one of the most powerful tools in shaping a better future for individuals and society. However, for many students in India, financial constraints often pose a significant barrier to accessing quality education. To bridge this gap and provide deserving students with the opportunity to pursue higher education, the SVMCM Scholarship (Swami Vivekananda Merit-cum-Means Scholarship) was introduced by the Government of West Bengal.

Named after the legendary philosopher and social reformer Swami Vivekananda, who advocated for the empowerment of individuals through education, the SVMCM Scholarship is designed to help economically disadvantaged students realize their academic dreams. By providing financial assistance to meritorious students, the scholarship has transformed the lives of thousands, enabling them to achieve educational excellence without the burden of financial worry.

In this blog, we will take a detailed look at the SVMCM Scholarship, exploring its benefits, eligibility criteria, the application process, and its overall impact on the educational landscape.

What is the SVMCM Scholarship?

The SVMCM Scholarship is an initiative by the Government of West Bengal aimed at supporting students who show academic excellence but lack the financial means to pursue higher education. This merit-cum-means scholarship is available to students from undergraduate to postgraduate and even doctoral levels across various fields of study.

Named after Swami Vivekananda, the scholarship embodies his philosophy that education is the key to personal empowerment and the development of a nation. The program is intended to help economically weaker students continue their education and reach their full potential, thereby contributing to the betterment of society.

Objectives of the SVMCM Scholarship

The SVMCM Scholarship serves several critical purposes that align with the educational goals of the Government of West Bengal. Its primary objectives include:

Promoting Accessibility to Higher Education: By providing financial assistance, the scholarship aims to ensure that deserving students from all socioeconomic backgrounds can pursue higher education without being restricted by their financial limitations.

Supporting Merit-Based Education: The scholarship is designed to reward academic excellence. It motivates students to perform well in their studies by offering financial support to those who excel in their respective courses.

Reducing Economic Barriers: The scholarship specifically targets students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds, including students from rural areas and marginalized communities. This ensures equal opportunities for all students, regardless of their economic status.

Promoting Social Equity and Inclusivity: By focusing on students from underrepresented sections of society, such as Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), Other Backward Classes (OBC), and students with disabilities, the scholarship promotes social inclusion and equity in education.

Nation Building: Swami Vivekananda believed that the true progress of a nation lies in the empowerment of its youth through education. The SVMCM Scholarship aligns with this vision by nurturing future leaders who will contribute to the growth and development of India.

Benefits of the SVMCM Scholarship

The SVMCM Scholarship provides several benefits, which can significantly impact the lives of the students who receive it. Here are some of the major advantages:

1. Financial Assistance for Education

The most immediate and impactful benefit of the SVMCM Scholarship is the financial aid it offers. This support covers tuition fees, examination fees, and in some cases, the cost of study materials. The scholarship reduces the financial burden on students, allowing them to focus entirely on their studies.

2. Encouragement for Academic Excellence

The scholarship is awarded to students based on merit, making it a recognition of academic excellence. This encourages students to work hard and perform well in their studies, which in turn creates a culture of high academic standards.

3. Improved Career Opportunities

By enabling students to complete their education, the SVMCM Scholarship opens the door to better career opportunities. With the financial support provided by the scholarship, students can gain qualifications that will help them secure stable and rewarding jobs.

4. Empowerment of Marginalized Groups

The scholarship is aimed at supporting students from disadvantaged backgrounds, including rural students, those from economically weaker sections, and students with disabilities. This ensures that students who have been traditionally excluded from higher education due to financial constraints now have the opportunity to succeed.

5. Boosting Social Equity

Through this scholarship, the Government of West Bengal aims to level the playing field, ensuring that students from all walks of life, irrespective of their family income, have access to quality education. It empowers students from underprivileged communities to break the cycle of poverty and contribute positively to society.

Eligibility Criteria for the SVMCM Scholarship

The scholarship is mainly for students residing in West Bengal.

What Are the Financial Aid Options for IAS Coaching in Coimbatore?

Preparing for the prestigious Indian Administrative Services (IAS) exam requires dedication, hard work, and most importantly, financial investment. Coaching for the IAS exam can be costly, and for many aspirants in Coimbatore, the expense of high-quality coaching can be a significant hurdle. Fortunately, there are several financial aid options available to help ease the financial burden of IAS coaching in Coimbatore.

In this article, we will explore some of the most effective ways for aspirants to access financial aid for their IAS preparation while keeping their financial constraints in mind. Whether you're looking for scholarships, loan schemes, or other cost-effective strategies, these options can make a significant difference in your journey towards becoming an IAS officer.

1. Scholarships for IAS Coaching

Many coaching institutes in Coimbatore offer scholarships to deserving students. These scholarships are typically awarded based on merit or financial need. If you're an outstanding student, you may be able to secure a significant reduction in coaching fees. Scholarships are often available for students who have demonstrated exceptional academic performance in their previous studies or have a proven track record in competitive exams like TNPSC.

For instance, certain TNPSC coaching centres in Coimbatore also extend their scholarship schemes to IAS aspirants, enabling them to get the necessary training at a more affordable cost. If you're eligible, applying for such scholarships can drastically reduce your expenses and provide you with a better chance of succeeding in the IAS exam.

2. Educational Loans for IAS Coaching

If you're unable to secure a scholarship, another option is to avail an educational loan. Several national and regional banks offer loans specifically for higher education, including coaching for competitive exams like IAS. These loans are often designed with favorable terms and lower interest rates, making it easier for students from Coimbatore to access the coaching they need without immediate financial strain.

Educational loans typically cover tuition fees, study materials, and even living expenses, which can be incredibly helpful if you're preparing for the IAS exam full-time. Many banks also provide a grace period before you need to start repaying the loan, allowing you to focus on your studies without worrying about immediate repayment.

3. Fee Installment Plans

Many IAS coaching centres in Coimbatore, including well-known TNPSC coaching centres, offer flexible fee payment options. These installment plans allow students to pay their fees in smaller amounts over a period of time instead of a lump sum. This can make the cost of coaching more manageable for students who are working part-time or have limited financial resources.

By opting for a fee installment plan, aspirants can spread out their financial commitment and focus more on their studies. This arrangement also ensures that students don’t miss out on quality education due to financial constraints. If you’re planning to join an IAS coaching centre in Coimbatore, inquire about the available installment options that might suit your financial situation.

4. Government Support and Subsidies

In some cases, the government provides financial support to IAS aspirants. Various state and central government schemes offer financial assistance to students from economically disadvantaged backgrounds. For instance, certain scholarships and grants are available for students from Scheduled Castes (SC), Scheduled Tribes (ST), and Other Backward Classes (OBC).

In addition, several state governments provide subsidies or reimbursements for coaching fees. Some of these schemes might be specifically tailored for students preparing for civil services exams. It’s worth checking with local authorities and educational bodies in Coimbatore to see if you qualify for any such schemes that can help you pay for IAS coaching.

5. Part-Time Work Options

If you are facing financial constraints, you can also consider taking up part-time work to supplement your income while preparing for the IAS exam. Many students in Coimbatore take up tutoring, freelance work, or even internships to cover their coaching expenses. By working part-time, you can gain valuable experience while also managing your finances.

Moreover, many IAS coaching centres in Coimbatore understand the financial pressures students face and may be willing to provide flexible schedules to accommodate part-time work. This allows you to balance both your preparation and earning potential.

6. Crowdfunding and Community Support

In some cases, students turn to crowdfunding platforms to raise money for their IAS coaching. While this might not be a conventional option, it can be an effective way to raise funds, especially if you have a compelling story and a strong support system. Some students have successfully raised funds through online platforms or community initiatives, especially when their cause resonates with people.

If you have a strong social network or belong to a supportive community in Coimbatore, you may find that friends, family, and well-wishers are willing to contribute to your IAS journey. You can also approach local organizations that support education and career development for financial assistance.

Conclusion

The cost of IAS coaching in Coimbatore can be a major barrier for many aspirants, but with the right approach, it is possible to find financial aid options that fit your needs. Scholarships, educational loans, installment plans, government schemes, part-time work, and crowdfunding are all viable options for students who are determined to succeed.

If you're looking for expert guidance to help you prepare for the IAS exam, a TNPSC coaching centre in Coimbatore can be an excellent resource. Many of these centres offer competitive coaching programs and financial support to help students achieve their dreams. So, take advantage of the various financial aid options available to you and embark on your IAS journey with confidence.

By exploring these opportunities, IAS aspirants in Coimbatore can overcome financial challenges and focus on what truly matters—preparing for one of the most prestigious exams in India.

The Cambrian explosion: Are we just an experimental mishap?

Chapter One:

My friend and I were walking home from work, and at the moment we reached half way between our places and split off, a figure appeared in front of me. A silhouette of a sign off my glasses. When I took them off to wipe the fog of my sweaty walk off, I could only make out a shape that might be in the shadow or a building next to the street light, or a far off darkness that might just be an opening between the trees. When you take off your glasses it’s not only the fuzzy vision that can mess with your sense of location, it’s also the major lack of depth perception.

I got my glasses back on and nothing had changed. I mean, I could see clear my surroundings, but the silhouette was still there, depthless, fuzzy, unmistakably not normal.

It approached me with dead silent speed, I stood still and frozen hoping it would leave as quickly as it appeared. It tapped the phone in my hand and a spark through my whole body surged me into clarity. With a flash the world around me became fuzzed up and silhouetted, and the figure was fully focused and unmistakably human.

Unmistakably human because I recognized her. Almost immediately. But was more uncomfortable to mention it or even address why I knew exactly who she was but she would have no idea who I am. The same reason I was so uncomfortable address the new reality I have now found myself in. This new fuzzy place that as I ran around was depthless and just a large fish eye lens I was walking around with stuck on my head. The world formed and fell behind me as if I wasn’t there. As if it wasn’t there. As if I was in a large globe with the world projected around me. Moving with my move but always moving through and around me.

After running around and screaming for about ten minutes the figure found me and shut me up with a slap to my left cheek.

“Hi! I’m with the Beuant For Better a better universe, and I believe your species is entitled to mass explosion compensation.”

“Ahhhahahhhahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhaaaaaaaaaaa”

She slapped me on both cheeks this time. At the same time. Sandwich slapping is awful.

“Hi! I’m Fron-cean.” Said a little mechanical.

Barely regaining my composure, “Hi Frown Seen.”

“I’m a fourth dimension transport assistant, and I am here to offer you the opportunity to represent your species in a class action lawsuit against the Cambrian explosion company the wrongfully mass evolved your planet without your consent.”

“What!? What the fuck are you talking about?”

“Oh I’m sorry. The translator can only work so well. Sometimes the words get translated wrong or backwards and the system can misinterpret the meanings. Um, let me see if there are any colloquial linguistics I’m forgetting to properly subpoena you for trial.”

“Is this one of those ‘you may be entitled to financial compensation’ things but for an intergalactic scientific mistake?”

“Yes”

“What the fuck!”

“Wow. You grasped that much faster than most.”

“Not grasped at all.”

“Oh really. Where is the all?”

“All?”

“Yes. Where is the all at so we can make sure to not grasp it?”

“Your translator is really sucky.”

“Hi! I’m Fron-cean.” With a little glitch at the end.

I jump back a little as I begin to wobble between the world around me and the figure bouncing back and forth from focused to fuzzy, from fuzzy to depthless, from depthless to focused. At their own rate and speed independent to one another until it becomes too rapid to distinguish between fuzzy and focused and formful. The world was a fog of dispersed objects that would be in great focus and clarity about 10, maybe 20 meters around me, but would form into a light foggy haze as I got closer and walked through it. It was as if the further something was, the clearer I could see it, and the closer I got, the more out of focus it got. The world felt backwards. It felt flipped on its laws of nature. It felt unsynced. And with a snap the fish bowl was back and the figure was in front of me.

“Oh golly. The syncing process. I forgot a step. I’m sorry. My programming is so out of order. How many figures am I holding up?”

“Uuuu, three.”

“Oh sorry. I was holding up two. The thumbs not a finger! Hahahahahahahaha! I saw that joke on your internet. Pretty good joke.”

“Why does the world look like this? Why are you here? Are you after me? Did I do something?”

“All good questions. I have the ability to answer what’s needed to get you to make a ‘no fault’ decision on your participation in or declination of this trial. Before we officially get an offer going, I must inform you of your rights.”

Her mouth opened a little slant sided as a series of beeps clicks and mouth vowel movements combined to make every possible recovering of the noise imperceptible to any known language on earth. It lasted for about 2 minutes with a “do you understand your rights?”

To which I responded, “that was just a bunch of noise.”

“Perfect.”

“Perfect! I don’t know what you’re saying!”

“Oh excellent. If you don’t mind, I’m gonna start transporting you to the courthouse so you can join the trial. We have just enough time to get there before it’s too late.”

And with that, she struck three poses that resembled dance moves and stretches no normal person would randomly start striking. The world began to float around me. Past me. Through me. I was being transported through space to a different location. One outside of my planet. One outside of our galaxy. One outside of my understanding of transportation.

I immediately threw up. It was kind of disorienting.

Scholarships for Underrepresented Minorities in Medicine: Opportunities for Indian Students

In India, with its massive population, there are exceptionally bright students from certain communities who want to pursue a career in medicine but cannot afford the same with their resources. Given that, this blog points out the most important Scholarship for Medical Students that exist to cater for the underrepresented minority medical groups. We will consider all forms of assistance available to students from state and other non-state actors, including individuals and charitable organisations. For people coming from underprivileged or minority communities faced by these oppression structures, these scholarships serve to ease the way towards one becoming a doctor, which is more often than not a distant aspiration.

Medical Education for Indian Students Through Scholarships for Underrepresented Minorities in Medicine
