so I have started doing some weightlifting with dumbbells at home after stopping during the winter due to ac joint injury after a fall, but i am worried that what I am doing is suboptimal. I picked the fierce five dumbbell routine from the fitness wiki. I have two adjustable dumbbells that can go up to 30kg each. Due to the ac joint injury from the winter one arm/shoulder is weaker, and doesn’t have full range of motion, still some pain. I started with weights around 4-8 kg depending on the exercise, I went with around 75% or 50% of the max I can comfortable lift at the moment to start with. I did read the article about fuckaraounditis and while I know I shouldn’t worry about it too much as a beginner I keep doubting the exercises I am doing. I don’t have a pull-up bar/ or bands as I have nowhere to mount them at home (doorframes are kind of cheap and flimsy). I was wondering if I need to get maybe a barbell, or a bench. Also worried I am not pushing hard enough with the weights, and as far as I understand it’s easier to go a bit heavier with a barbell so I guess I would see better progress. Plus I would be missing some exercises only with dumbbells. Is it worth it to get a barbell at home and a bench? How safe would barbell exercises be at home when done alone? How practical would it be, in terms of the amount of weights. Also what other exercises could I add to the workout?
Also when I look at the dumbbell weight I feel a bit depressed since it is so low, I feel it will take forever to progress to something actually heavy and like I am not doing much with these dumbbells, although I know I am overthinking it it is hard to shake off the doubts. I am currently 91kg at 186cm.

Yesterday I learned that my friend got us tickets to some concert tomorrow that we had both forgotten about, we talked about it half a year ago and I guess I told him to get tickets that I will join them. Usually I have a fear of traveling but now but recently it seems to have gotten worse. And this is a very sudden change to my weekly routine which is even harder to deal with. I am feeling very anxious about traveling there as it is close to 2 hour car trip in one way and also about being in a packed arena. I don’t really want to go to the concert, and I keep thinking about dying in a car crash or something in the arena all to see a concert I don’t even care for. But I don’t know how to bail out on it, and I have already gotten a ticket. If I say just that I am not going or something i feel it looks bad and super weird cause the ticket is expensive. I don’t know what to do. How can get out of it a day before the event without looking super weird?

i am super anxious about traveling with a car longer distances. a few days ago I bailed out in a trip cause it involved a 2-3 hour car trip. The other day a friend reminded me we are at some concert in a couple of days for which we bought tickets some time ago and is a 2 hour or so car trip away. I had totally forgotten and I expected a regular week. Now I am super nervous and can’t even sleep well. I keep thinking of ways to get out of it. I keep thinking something bad will happen on the trip or at the concert, and I keep thinking it isnt even a concert I want to see we talked about it half a year ago and i dont remember at all. i Just want to stay in my city and do my regular day and stay with the people i Love I don’t want to die cause of a stupid concert I don’t even want to see, I just want to get out. I don’t know what to do and I am a total mess. and first I thought it was Wednesday but it is even closer it’s on Tuesday.

I am a M31, really starting to worry about this hanta virus outbreak. I have always had really bad health anxiety and the first year or two of covid was really bad for me and I took it really hard, but had a better support system at the time, now my mother is sick with dementia and I am not longer together with my partner so feel completely isolated.

Reading the news of this hanta outbreak and health officials saying it is not that dangerous and doesn't spread easily, yet other people that have studied previous outbreaks say people are taking it way too lightly and the health authorities all over the world are taking it very likely. They estimate the previous outbreak reproductive number of the virus to be slightly over 2 which is what the initial covid number was as well. As someone who isn't medical specialist it seems that health authorities are treating this vary carelessly, considering it is not a super extensively studied virus with mortality of 50% that has not had this sort of outbreak before. They are basically hoping for the best when we know sick people have been on flights so people that have been in contact with the virus have been all over the world and it will start spreading more and more with this super long incubation.

I am really trying to focus on the medical people opinions that keep saying it is not going to become pandemic and is not dangerous but I keep seeing some experts also raise concerns that this is again not being handled with enough care and it makes me really nervous, I can't help but side with the people on the skeptical side of this, especially since some of them are the closest thing we have to experts on this virus. So my mind keeps jumping to the possibility of another pandemic or even the virus becoming endemic here in Europe as well. It’s just too soon after Covid. And the worse thing is that it seems to me that due to the long incubation period we will actually know the severity of it with a huge delay of weeks or months.

What would be the best for an apartment with mostly vinyl fllor and one rug? I also have a pet rabbit. I looked into all sorts of cordless vacuums, bagged and canister miele vacuums, shark. Every time I google reviews and opinions people are saying they are crap, the miele C3, C1, L1, M1, blizzard, Dyson, Shark. It seems every brand and type is getting hate. How can I pick one, the miele ones were also rated quite low for hardwood floors.
I would rather it be a cordless vacuum cause it looks convenient and like something I would use more often, but at this point I would accept any type that will do a good job of cleaning and won't be a hassle to maintain/clean.

EDIT: I am based in Bulgaria, I don't really have a price range, obviously would prefer it not to be something super expensive professional cleaning level.

I did a pg build inspired by jrue holiday. I invested 100k vc I got from buying the game on some deal recently. I also put the 20 something thousand vc from the story mode games. Both I and my whole team absolutely suck. I was drafted on the raptors as a starter. I have 82 three ball, 80 perimeter defenders, 82 speed and 90 agility. Everyone is dropping like 30 points on me without an issue and my teammates are getting shit on as well, the opponents always gets them on pick and rolls and if I try to help out on defence ai just either bails out to the guy I left open or just phases through me like I am not there. I get a bunch of assists but can’t make a layup or a free throw, and when I just leave the ai handle the attacks they often chuck awful shots or miss wide open looks. I thought I might buy some vc but this shit is 20 euro for 100k and I payed like 30 for the whole game+100vc. I really thought that would be enough vc to max out one build or at least make it playable.
