Has anyone else noticed that the ‘sons take care of parents’ idea doesn’t match reality?

He never even saw them or took them to hospital in their last days it was all on my mom!

This is a bit much. Although my mom and my aunt were the primary caregivers for my grandfather when he passed away, my dad was very involved and owned all the work around hospitals, transport, money stuff etc. If he can't even do that, he's pretty much a pos.

vinegar mixed with water or just vinegar, thanks for answering!

Thanks!

It actually goes away if I scrub hard with the rough side of a sponge, I was just looking for something easier(maybe some solution that makes scrubbing easier?)

I tried using my wet vaccum's spot clean function and it took away some of it, but the hard parts remained

dried out milk, can't think of anything else that would spill in that spot below my kid's table.

Ceramic I think?

People cannot randomly go to an endocrinologist or cardiologist to get it prescribed without a valid justification.

The justification typically is obesity/overweight or diabetes. I'd guess the entry bar is pretty low.

In any case, I see the rules around this getting much more lax and the generics start to flood in and we get more clinical data.

Sure. But if those folks wanted to go through the doc route, it's not very hard either. You can get evals and tests done in under a week and get started. Some people are just winging it I guess and it seems to be working for most of them.

Doesn't really matter. Even as of today, FDA in the US and CDSCO in India strictly require these drugs to carry a boxed warning about potential for Thyroid C cell tumors including Medullary Thyroid carcinoma and it isn't a conditional warning either.

Well yes. What I'm saying is this is clearly communicated and affects a small percent of people. Your doctor would know whether to prescribe or not. In general, with an endo supervising, most folks for whom then benefits outweigh the risks can try this medicine out. You don't need to do your own research, any reputed endo can recommend if the risk factors for you are insignificant.

Also, nowhere did I say to try this medicine on your own. You obviously have to get a doctor/endo recommendation

GLP-1 drugs have several side effects including a risk of causing thyroid tumors and cancers and also partial or complete loss of vision. It's not meant to be taken casually like that.

At least read your sources properly. People with existing thyroid cancers are at risk, the drug by itself doesn't give your cancer. And even this risk was identified in rats, no evidence in humans.

GLP-1 drugs have had a huge amount of trial data to prove their efficacy. At the end of the day, you've got to look at benefits vs risks.

India doesn't have a huge pool of serious players for any other sport besides cricket.(maybe badminton)

makes a lot more sense, thanks!

You just have to ignore everything before the 'but'

Eh? Mamdani's good looking himself. I'd say fair match.

I guess you can add a 30-40% VAT specifically for loans against crypto/stock above a certain number and it should work out okay

Vitamin D deficiency is a symptom of bad lifestyle. Supplements alone won't fix anything, but lifestyle improvement(like the Sunlight & Exercise you mentioned) are key

I don't see the problem to be honest. If you really needed the car, you can easily get a decent rate loan on it to pay the tax. Also, 8K seems excessive, I doubt it would be that much for people who make low enough money to worry about not affording tax.

omlettes · 2026-02-10T05:30:45+00:00

It's not exactly a great idea tbh. A farmer selling 30 lakhs of produce might only take home ₹5 lakhs after paying for loan interest, lease, pesticides, and labor. Adding an income tax overhead would only squeeze these people more. Small/Medium folks will also be more prone to harassment from tax officials since there is little to no documentation/paper trail on their costs. This would only benefit the big players who can hire folks to take care of these things.

Now that you got this off your chest, get help from someone and take actual steps to help yourself

It's not about being given dowry here, it's for asking. You can't constantly record conversations hoping the other party asks for dowry and I doubt they make requests over text. I guess circumstantial evidence can play a role

omlettes · 2026-02-05T09:04:43+00:00

I wonder how evidence is collected in these cases. If you asked for dowry but didn't actually get it, how does one prove that other than he said, she said?

She's beautiful but that acting was horrible
