So I live in Bangalore and everyday I come back from work, I stand at this bus station and I see dogs being thin and hungry and a lot of them have injuries and it breaks my heart to see their pain and not being able to do anything, we literally destroyed their natural habitat and now, they r all suffering.

Like idk man, they did absolutely nothing to deserve this - I do carry dog biscuits and not actual dry food since they r expensive and I'm only an intern rn. Like can u imagine waking up hungry only to be beaten or getting a car??? I tried to contact shelter but they didn't respond mostly because they all r already full but these animals deserve a safe place too, they just want food and some love and i hate it that i can't give it all of them, I'm just crying as I'm writing this.

Like so much of suffering and I've so little to give, it's hard to digest that fact, I really want more shelters to open or at least legal provisions to be made so that stray animals can get food everyday from a particular place. They can't talk, we have to talk for them.

Edit: The title is a bit misleading. I didn’t mean atheism = veganism. I meant that without religious frameworks normalising animal consumption, I personally became more sensitive to animal suffering, which influenced my decision to go vegan.

So yeah, that's the question.

So to give it a context, i was born and brought up in Bangalore + I come from a lower middle class family which means financial pressure was always present.

So my mom was extremely physically abusive (had to be hospitalized n shiiii due to injuries or skip school the next day) and my father was completely emotionally absent. + was gr@@med and Sa'ed while growin up so that's there.

Then after puberty hit me, the guys i dated pretty much treated me like a trophy and hated when i showed human emotions lol.

Now I'm 22, doing freelancing along with my regular 9-5 to pay off my mother's EMIs (was emotionally abusive too but also the only parent who gave a shit abt me to an extent) so, idk when people talk abt love, i don't actually get wt they mean? Is it supposed to feel different from other emotions? How do yk u r loving or the other person loves u?

Ps: if someone I'm talking to sees this, ignore it n don't ask me anything abt this.

Update - omg never asking about relationship or love again here, I'm sorry but most answers aren't grounded at all but so vague and theatrical.

Edit again: it's not THAT deep 😭 I'm actively working towards an escape plan and building my future, taking intense therapy (lots of pill, yuck but still), and healing plus I'm emotionally in a good place compared to before but thanks for caring, means a lot.

Hey! I’m organizing a casual basketball pickup session in Bangalore and locking in final attendance now.

📍 Venue: Namma Sports Arena (Nagasandra)

🕒 Time: 3–5 PM, May 30 (Saturday)

💸 Contribution: ₹499 per person (court booking + coordination split)

We already have a few people confirmed, and I’m closing final headcount soon for booking.

⚠️ Looking for a few more players (target ~5–8 total for a good game flow)

If you’re interested, please DM/comment and I’ll add you to the group 👍

And yep! I used Chatgpt to type this 😭

Yeah, that's it.

Hey, anyone wants to join the basketball game meetup on May 30th, it's gonna be for 2hrs and mostly from 3-5/2-4?

If yes then do let me know (outdoor court, there's changing rooms, and it looked pretty decent with 4.5 rating).

So, i was going through the diner app by zomato and

was looking at some of these expensive “singles mixers” happening in Bangalore and thought… why not just do something actually fun instead?

And WHO TF is paying 1,499/- for a MEETUP AT CUBBON PARK - That just doesn't justify its pricing!

So I’m thinking of organizing a small casual basketball + social hangout meetup for people who just want to:

play basketball, meet new people, vibe,and have conversations naturally without awkward speed-dating energy.

Plan for now:

Mixed group (small group, probably around 10 people)

2 hours casual basketball

Beginner friendly! You absolutely do NOT need to be super athletic or experienced (I'm athletic so be careful! )

Afterwards we can grab snacks/chai (on me since it's a paid event and hang out nearby (hopefully around Cubbon Park area if I get a court nearby.

So, i'm 22f and grew up in a lower middle class so financials were always a problem for us and my parents r very selfish and narcissistic.

Last week, I came home at 11pm, my father got angry and was searching for something to hit me and called me and

orphan dog and how he should've thrown me in the streets and i was crying, my mom who was sleeping turned and scolded me to stop crying so she can sleep while I'm paying all their EMIs and my lil brother's education.

Is this normal? Ik it's not but idk why my mind is trying to normalize it.

Me and my frnds have booked airbnb but they r home bodies + i love going out and socializing,

If anyone lives near there then we can take a walk in the park and talk?
