The Massive #7-9: Subcontinental

The ocean is a lonely place and almost everyone they've encountered thus far has been hostile. Until now.

In issues previous, the crew of The Kapital has been alone on the ocean. Moving from place to place and struggling to survive, continuing the search for their sister-ship, The Massive. However, ‘Subcontinental’ finds The Kapital on rendezvous course with the oil rig Moksha Station off the coast of India; a self-declared safe haven and ‘neutral’ sovereign nation.

Looking only to stop for supplies, The Kapital’s crew find themselves embroiled in a larger plot when a storm forces the station into lockdown and The Kapital itself is threatened with seizure and destruction.

Terey Ghar main Maan behan nahin hai?

I saw a clip from an Ajub gul show today. Where he spies on couples. A rip off of the western style reality TV. However the disgusting programing was not what disgusted me. It was a line I heard a mother say to the guy dating her daughter. She catches the couple in a restaurant - on tv i must add - slaps the boy a couple of times and says "tumharey ghar main maan behan nahin hai?". I will let you know my opinion of the mother at the end of this piece but for now lets focus on these magical words which when spoken place you in the right and also guarantee popular support around you by any by standers.

This is the kind of shit line spoken to any boy who is trying to follow a natural and biologically quite normal desire to engage with the opposite sex in Pakistan. Most of the times it will be their own mothers imparting the same lesson in so many words, before everyone else, to install respect and modesty. Girls bank on this statement too whenever they want to push away unsolicited advances. But their lot is pretty bleak in Pakistan and I dont hold it against them because they probably use it as pepper spray to keep them safe from carnal claws.

So lets take a second and see what this statement - that is almost a metaphor for virtue - actually means and where does it derive its authority.
