I had this weird cold for the last three weeks. Most symptoms are gone now but I still feel exhausted. Reminds me of when I had Covid in 2021. It was probably Covid this time as well. Wish you a speedy recovery!

Maybe. Does the plastic wrap have those little bubbles you can pop?

What do you have in the back then?

Thank you, those are some interesting perspectives!

Lovecraft was on my list forever as well but I never got around to it until I found them on Spotify. Usually listen while travelling.

Thanks for another great answer. I realise now that the comparison with Soviet wasn't very thoughtful of me. I just wanted to imagine something that would have broken up the Nazi German hegemony from the inside.

Another thought is that American products and culture probably are popular partly because they were winners in World War 2.

Great answer, do you see any internal tensions within the Axis that could foreseeably have caused collapse comparable to say Soviet communism's collapse in the real world? How dependant were they on Hitler and Mussolini as individuals?

That individual health can be discussed separately from societal conditions such as what the market offers, salary levels, pollution, transport system, working hours, labour market, insurance system et cetera. "If you want to be healthy it is just your own individual responsibility to purchase healthy commercial products and services".

I listen to Lovecraft audiobooks, for "free" on Spotify!

Thank you so much for taking the time to write a long and informative answer. It was very interesting to learn about the situation. I really hope it will improve. Best of luck to you and your country/community!

PS. If you have any question about either, happy to answer>

Could you please say a few words about the situation for young people (say 15-25) in Pakistan? What are their dreams and aspirations? Main differences between socioeconomic groups of youth? Main conflicts and disagreements with older generations? View of the world?

I fully realise that this is a huge and complex question and that it will be very difficult to generalise. Any response on these kinds of questions would be much appreciated though!

Yeah a clear sign that it's actually your favourite!

Great to see two really iconic artists and singers at their best!
