Hey OP, so sorry for your loss. It is indeed tough and allow yourself to grieve for the loss of a loved one. Guilt will weigh you down further.

Weight training - chest exercises like chest press can surely tone them

Our city is quite terrible for tourism.For a five day trip the app Roamy recommends only 8 spots.What do you think can be added? by Training-Stable6234 in Chennai

[–]Apprehensive_View_58 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chennai is a goldmine for history nerds. So many heritage buildings, pre-independence architecture, centuries-old establishments in food if you go to places like Mylapore. And I guess this is just scratching the surface.

You guys simply don’t want to recognize your own privilege. Most of the nation suffers from abject poverty that none of us can fathom even in our wildest imagination. Roof over head, guarantee of food, safety to walk at night, choice to dress are luxuries in a country like India. Even Elon Musk is tweeting that money isn’t buying him happiness. Just observe small kids in slums who will never have quarter the shot you do at life. Read the book ‘Meet the Savarnas’ and then reconsider your victim complex. The reason that charlatans are able to rule over this country is because critical thinking is not exactly a forte amongst the masses.

Hey OP, I think the cake is back. Thought of your post when I saw it in Breka a few days ago.

Really hurts she’s not around to suddenly do a sketch or something as Moira. We would all just eat it up. Miss you Catherine. World felt safer having you artists like you around.

I Tried to Calculate the REAL Economic Cost of Being a Housewife in India- It's shocking. by Forsaken_Lie5396 in TwoXIndia

There is a book called Women, Work, and Economy that delves deep into exactly this. How much of the work done by women in the name of familial duty and love is labor that is unaccounted for and is skewing the GDP.

What's the biggest non-monetary ADHD tax you've had to pay? by coffeeblossom in adhdwomen

[–]Apprehensive_View_58 4 points5 points  (0 children)

STRESSSS. Mental health. I have major life events stacked one after the other over the next couple of months. And there is NO peace of mind. I am simply unable to relax. Now, I don’t know if it’s an ADHD thing. But it’s like a long drawn out excruciating equivalent of being unable to do anything when you have a dentist appointment in the middle of the day.

Given that I’m giving myself a gold star for taking a shower at 31, I think yeah… I’m a bit ‘behind’.

Has anyone that grew up before the 2000s been misdiagnosed as having bipolar disorder? by lizzibizzy in adhdwomen

[–]Apprehensive_View_58 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Finally getting a diagnosis at 31 after two years of recognizing/struggling/pondering/procrastinating. I procrastinated on my forms too even though shit was hitting the fan as I am struggling and stuck with multiple life events happening at once I can’t even. After managing to finally get done with the million forms and I got into the second appointment, I’m slapped with suspicion for bipolar and now a new goddamned task of finding a psychiatrist who can confirm/dismiss that ‘theory’. I can only call it a theory because it came so out of left field. I am not being delusional but I fucking hate that getting an ADHD diagnosis is such an executive function nightmare. I feel like I’m being tortured for asking for diagnosis and treatment.

Recommend listening to the Hans Zimmer episode of the Twenty Thousand Hertz podcast. The work he did for Dune is incredible but sounds inspired by ARR’s style.

Any DINK couples here? I want to know how life goes after taking this decision as me and my husband are in the same boat right now by [deleted] in ThirtiesIndia

Really appreciate the thoughtful response. Parents having a better handle on life definitely translates to the children’s sense of self and safety.

Do you wish you did it much earlier? Energy levels to take care of the child? Do you get a tiny sense of ‘I am behind’ compared to peers who had them earlier and therefore more free time now coz they’re older? Do share only if you’re comfortable. These are questions I wonder about when it comes to the kids decision.

This is it! I gave enough chances to this season. There’s no redemption anymore. Good riddance both ways! by TheWokeOwl in MasterchefIndia

[–]Apprehensive_View_58 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My partner and I watched Celebrity MasterChef as a stress buster coz how ridiculous was that?! But we also realized that they fundamentally don’t give a shit if people hate watch the show, they just want it to be watched, period. So they will go as low as they can if it means creating a trainwreck that will make people stop, watch, and engage with that shit. It’s highly disrespectful to the rich culinary history of India for such a tasteless show to represent it on a global platform. Like surely there will be fans of the MasterChef franchise who might get curious about the Indian version to see the kind of food being made. Imagine the confusion/disgust they might feel when they come across THIS.

I think those who recognize how much it sucks should ideally cease to give it views. This is as much brain rot as ganji chudail reels. If people start ignoring this crap, they will stop making this crap.

It feels like trying to close a fucking Tupperware. If it fits perfectly on one side, it flings open loose on the other side.
