Ladies, my sundar ladies, strong ladies— how do you all deal with PMS symptoms?

How do you go on your day, especially work and office, when your legs feel like stone, you are fatigued, sleep deprived, have a weird appetite, libido, and the likes?

Mujhse nahi ho raha abh!! 😭😭

I get to live in my OG version only for one week every month. All versions after that have been altered by my hormones to suit the menstrual cycle. 😭😭

How am I supposed to function when my body is either sleepy or hungry throughout the day? 🤡

In a recent case of Maharashtra, an engineer was k*lled by his married girlfriend, her husband and her brother, stuffed in a green drum and dumped in a drain.

The victim was unalived after failed attempts of extortion by the accused. The husband and brother are absconding, while the woman has been arrested.

But more than this, the reaction of the public was rather disheartening. Memes such as:

"Neela pati ke liye, Hara boyfriend ke liye."

"Blue drum for Hindus, Green drum for Muslims, White drums for Christians."

Anyone who told them not to make fun of a person's death, was told "It's not deep bro." and the likes.

When did we, as a society, stoop so low that we'll mock the death of others?

Sorry, this is a little depressing/sad, but I just want to get it off my chest.

Initially, I lived with the fear of being replaced and forgotten by my family. But ever since I found out that I'm sapphic, and my family will never approve it, I've wanted to be forgotten by them forever.

I even prayed that one of my cousins has a baby on my birthday so that everyone celebrates the child and forgets me. Forever.

So that I can stop feeling guilty when I leave them and walk away.

Sorry for the rant.

>It's their first time being parents. Forgive them.

>They gave you food, clothes, put a roof on your head, educated you.

>Be grateful to your parents.

>They know what they're doing. Don't go against them.

>They love you, even if their methods aren't right.

I hate it! I hate that every time someone reveals the sort of abuse they went through with their parents, they're shut down.

They are called names, shamed, labelled as the black sheep.

Why? Because they spoke against the Gods on Earth— parents!

Someone was mentally, physically, emotionally and/or financially destroyed by them, needs therapy to become a functioning member of the society, lives with trauma and dreads being a parent. And some idiot decides to gaslight *them* into being the problem.

Just shut up!!

People raised by actually good parents are the only ones who can sympathise with such children. The ones who bark, shame and label are those who are glorifying their suffering.

Abuse is discipline and we're snowflakes? Fine, you live with them. Don't engage with us. Let us be ungrateful.

Biased parents are protective? Controlling parents love you? Parents making you a puppet to their desires love you? Parents who see you as an investment love you?

GO LIVE WITH THEM!!! STOP SHAMING SOMEONE WHO HAS BEEN SCARRED FOR LIFE BY THEM.

>It's their first time being parents.

And? And? It's my first time living! If they can't parent, tell them to ask for help from grandparents. Parenting doesn't come with a guidebook, it is difficult, yes.

But for a child who only knows the world through you, it is even more difficult for them. They will normalise abuse, hate themselves, end up in toxic relationships.

Be a better adult!!!

You hear about abused animals and feel bad for them. Why not feel bad for abused children? Why gaslight them into forgiving their abusers?

People really need to have a licence to have children, and therapy and lessons on raising one!!

Until an adult is mentally, physically, emotionally and financially capable, and has a support system to take care of a child, they definitely shouldn't have one!!

Hey everyone,

As I had last posted about my situation (where my parents wanted to take me out of my PG), I followed your advice and lied to them about a 5-day WFO.

The problem is that this memo didn't reach my father. 🤡

He's planning to bring me back home at the end of the month, so that I can commute from home. That means, waking up at 5:30 AM daily, stressing to catch the metro on time, coming home by 8:30 PM, eating cornflakes and sleeping — basically having no life beyond work, plus a ruined mental and physical health.

I am considering getting a side job, which pays enough to cover my PG rent and let my salary be my savings, to avoid going back home.

I am good at writing stories and poetry. I have a laptop, but it belongs to the company.

What side jobs can I take up?

Thank you. ❤

Sitting behind a screen and being a keyboard warrior while pitching in only theoretical solutions, applicable to ideal world scenarios only, to mess real-world problems— that's how I'd describe my behaviour.

And that has me thinking— what are the acts of micro feminism one can adopt, which are applicable for everyone regardless of class or gender, in their daily life?

I want to get out of the theoretical trap and actually focus on practical solutions.

P.S. while we're at it, how do I remain calm and neutral in such situations and not be overcome by emotions?

Thank you. ❤

Workvera Technology — a company that states they are based in Bangalore.

Those who have their profiles on Naukri.com, please be careful. One of their members will call you, stating they're from the HR and you've been selected to join.

Next, they'll send you the document list and office location. First, the location is in Marathahalli, ORR. You will see the image of an Airtel store and think it's on the first floor.

It's not!

It's a scam.

They don't have an office or anything. In the PDF they sent, it won't specify your role or anything.

They will schedule an interview, then a few days later, another person will contact you. They will repeat everything from start. They won't give any clear information or anything, and get angry if you ask for more.

They have scammed many people in the past well.

If you get contacted by them, please block and report.

I want art classes with her to sound like Tu Hi Haqeeqat/ Dil Ibadat. ❤

I want my entry to sound like Aadat se Majboor (sabke debit mein dikhna hai mujhe 😭😂)

What about you ladies? Which song do you want your situations to sound like?

I mean, we're struggling to find friends and make a deep connection, both online and irl, and then come those bothersome posts— anyone up for a hookup/one night stand?

Like, why?!

This isn't a hookup sub (is it?)!!

It really irks me when I see posts where they want someone for hookups/sexual relationships.

Just get a life and install those god forsaken dating apps and leave us alone!!!

As it is, the majority of the country doesn't understand our community or thinks us to be promiscuous people who only sleep around and have a high sex drive, and then these posts come up, ruining everything!!

And those god damn men who think they'll find a woman here— get out dude, you're not getting anything here!

Hey everyone,

[ I am a software engineer and started working in December. I have shifted domains, so I have to re-train from the start. I have a background in PCMC and Engineering. ]

I want to go through a career switch from engineering to CMA/CA. I know the exams are difficult and the internships are grueling. I am not scared of working hard and toiling to achieve it, because it is something I've felt interested in for a long time.

But I'm unable to start because of one reason— my fear that I'll fail. No one in my family knows I'm planning a career switch, and I'm terrified of failing and belonging nowhere, becoming a burden to everyone.

I know someone who failed at something they like and became completely dependent on their spouse, spiralling into the loophole of procrastination, mobile addiction, and believing false babas instead of working.

I absolutely don't want to become like that!

I want to achieve my dream and targets, but I also feel scared of failing.

How do I deal with this?

I was walking back from office, the sun setting behind and my shadow in front.

And my brain goes like, "Damn! That's a good looking shadow."

My shadow was looking so good with the jacket sleeves pulled up, broad shoulders and everything.

How is my shadow so good and not me?! 🤡😭😂

Yes, I've lost it. 😂

Hi everyone,

I am planning to appear for the CMA inter in 2027, via the direct entry route. Since I come from a non-commerce background, I have no foundation.

Can you please recommend channels on YouTube for studying? Also, if it is possible for me to get notes as well, or if I should buy any books to learn, I'd be really grateful. :)

I saw a video on IG, where a girl was talking about how she was travelling in the metro and getting stared at by men, which made her feel uncomfortable. She also showed the outfit she was wearing at the end of it.

In the comment section, one man says that he will support the men. I can't take a screenshot, but I'll type down whatever he's said:

"I will defend those men not because what you wear, you definitely have the right to wear anything you want and its your body your choice, but what part of that you don't understand? Its their eyes, their choice. Who are you to tell them what to do and what not to do? Did they harass you? Did they touch you inappropriately? Forget inappropriately did they touch you in anyway? Then why the f*ck do you have problem with it, you don't have the right to judge them or call them shameless just like men don't have right to judge you and call you shameless even if you dress inappropriately. Live and let live idiot."

The girl clearly spoke about the inappropriate stare. Not the admiring gaze. Not the looking-at-someone-behind-you gaze.

The audacity!!
