Why does the police ask for money during passport verification?

I am so pissed rn. These people act so entitled, they won't even visit, and you are the one going to the police station, only to be asked for money, with a QR ready just in case you don't have cash. Why are they so entitled? I hate this system.

Where does everyone make their figures for research paper other than PowerPoint?

Hii!

I am a PhD candidate in Chemistry, working with nanomaterials. I use PowerPoint for figures. I keep seeing so many beautiful illustrations in research papers, especially those published in ACS. Where do these crazy research scientists-cum-artists come from? I want to know if there are any tools for this that I am unaware of.

Do let me know. Thanks!

Which flower should I get for my Boyfriend (M 25)?

Hiii!

I am visiting my boyfriend in a few days, and would like to give him flowers which we can keep in a vase for a few days. So initially I thought about getting lilies, as the buds will open in a few days and my boyfriend can just watch them grow. I gave him roses last time, so I thought I should give him a different flower this time.

For those who have gifted or received flowers, what would you recommend?

Thanks!

How are KIA buses for travel at night for a female?

Helloo

I am arriving at night (around 10), and I wanted to know how to travel from the airport to Kadubeesanahalli. KIA buses seem to be the economical option, as cabs are expensive (~ Rs. 1200 if I reserve now). So I'm considering KIA buses for now. Let me know if it is safe, or if I should consider booking a cab.

Thank you.

How to say no to a senior who keeps asking for my scooty every week?

Hii

A senior ma'am in my college, enrolled in a PhD program, keeps asking for my scooty every now and then, to visit a nearby place. I mean, it's alright if someone asks for once or twice, but this has been going on for a while now, and I don't know how to say no without being rude. We are not even friends.
I have tried lying once, but I don't wanna keep lying all the time.
What should I do?

I am enjoying this phase of my life with my boyfriend 🥳🥰😍

Hello!

I just wanted to come and say that my boyfriend is the cutest cutie patootie in the world and I love him so much😍🥰🥰.

He is my partner in crime and struggle, he is my daddy and he is my child, he is my mentor and he is my bestest buddy. I met him when I was a kid, we grew up in the same town, went to the same school, same class. This stupid little guy used to tease me and grin ear to ear just by seeing me suffer. Hah! twenty years later, now look how the tables have turned, stupid little boy!

I was in a relationship with a guy who was a bitch, I don't blame him for his circumstances, but we broke up and I was sad for a while. I still mourn it sometimes tbh, but I wish him well. I never thought I could love someone again so hard, so much, so unconditionally.

To everyone who thinks love is not worth it, it IS worth it dear! I used to think this way, but it's not the truth. Love is absolutely amazing😍😍

Keep loving everyone!!

25 F, Struggling to go to the gym consistently

Hello!

I am a 25-year-old female (Height: 150 cm, Weight: 51 Kg), currently pursuing a PhD. I have to reach college by 9 AM and leave at 6 PM, which leaves me exhausted and makes it hard to stay motivated.

I started going to the gym around the beginning of this year. I still go to the gym about 3 times a week, but it's hard to stay consistent, and I want to go at least 5 times a week. I do both strength and functional training, but I feel drowsy during workouts. I keep feeling sleepy throughout the session, and sometimes I feel nauseous, especially when I do a leg workout. I got my blood work done, and everything's normal except my Vitamin D levels, which I discussed with my doctor. I am currently taking my weekly meds. I cook my food and keep it less oily and higher in protein.

I tried to figure out the constraints which keeps me inconsistent at the gym:

  1. Unable to go to the gym in the morning: I have to get a good sleep at night (7 hours) to function properly during the daytime. But more often than not, I have a hard time falling asleep, and it takes me at least an hour to fall asleep. My gym is closer to my college, and it's a thirty-minute commute from my home. If I try to work out in the morning, I end up rushing and often don't have enough time to prepare breakfast and lunch properly.
  2. Crowded gym in the evening: People don't easily agree to alternate sets on the equipment, and many of the lighter dumbbells are often occupied by large group classes. Therefore, a 40-minute workout can easily turn into a 70–80-minute session, making it harder to stay consistent.
  3. PhD: Some days are mentally draining. It can be stressful and unpredictable, and by the end of the day, I often feel completely depleted.

I've already paid for my current gym membership through the end of the year, so switching to or joining another nearby gym isn't really an option for me at the moment. I really want to stay consistent and build more muscle. I want to do it, but I can't figure out how. Please help me out. I'd really appreciate any advice.

Thanks.

How do I deal with a man who says he is "in love" with me within interaction of just two days?

Hello!

I am a 25 year old female, a second year PhD student. Around one year ago, I went to a conference to a city far away from my research centre. While attending a lecture, a guy (29 M) sitting beside me started a conversation with me, and we introduced ourselves and our research work. He was from a computational background, so I thought it might help if I could learn something from him, so I befriended him.

What followed was him calling me whenever I was out of his sight, having our meals together, and on the last day of the conference, he asked me out. It felt really weird for some reason, so I told him that I'm interested in someone else, and there's no way we can be together, and that he is not my type. The guy accepted it, and we decided to stay in touch.

Then he started calling me every morning and evening and at night, I would pick up sometimes and the other times I used to text that I'm busy. This went on for around ten days after I came back from the conference. Then one day, he texted me that he wanted to visit my city to meet me the next weekend. That creeped me out, so I said no. Then, he would still keep calling if I didn't pick up, and it felt like we were in a relationship by the way he was behaving. Therefore, I completely stopped responding, and the guy stopped calling after sometime, and texted me bye bye.

Fast forward to now, I'm in a LDR with the man I was interested in. One day, I got a notification on my LinkedIn for a connection from that conference guy. I thought "okay, what harm will it do?", and accepted the request. Since then, I keep getting notifications from LinkedIn about him viewing my profile, and on my birthday, he texted me a long message, wishing me birthday, including all the minute details he remembered, like my nickname, and my time of birth, and it was written by ChatGPT.

I genuinely thought I would connect to him regarding research, but him doing this made me uncomfortable in a really weird way. I shared this with my boyfriend, and he said I can text him regarding what I want to learn from him, or else can block him. What bothers me is I'm unable to comprehend why the guy is behaving like this. This does not feel like what a normal person in love would do. I don't even think he is in love tbh. What do you think?

My boyfriend and I really enjoy serene and cool places with live music, both are foodies and are open to try different kinds of food, and we don't like loud music. Please suggest me some good places, somewhere near Bellandur and Marathahalli, since he lives in Bellandur, and we don't wanna go far and get stuck in the traffic.

Recommendation for nameplate for my boyfriend (25 M)

Hello guys!!

So my boyfriend has recently moved to his own place in Bangalore, and I'm visiting him after a long time. So I was thinking of giving him a nameplate for his door, and I discussed this with him. He said he wants both of our names in the nameplate in such a way that only we can see it. So I am thinking of writing my name in morse code. Please suggest some ideas where I can discreetly add my name in the nameplate too.

Also, please suggest some cool, aesthetic nameplates. It shouldn't be flowery and whimsical, bro loves metallic power ranger kinda stuff.

Please help me out🙏🙏🙏

Hello!

So I have XRD data of my nanomaterial sample, and I have to assign the hkl values. So I looked up on the internet and found the following solutions:

  1. Using JCPDS card and Xpert Highscore: I've made an account and can get the JCPDS PDF, but even then, it's useless unless I have Xpert Highscore. We don't have the Xpert highscore in our lab.
  2. Using literature: Sure, I can do that. But my metal oxide has many polymorphs😭, I am unable to figure out which one to follow.
  3. Asking the big ones in the lab: According to them, watching YouTube is the only way to learn it. But they refuse to even share the videos which helped them.

I don't know how to figure this out😭. Please help me out😭🙏
