8 ball pool jugar

Hi all!
I would like to ask for some help again. My build is more and more finished and seems quiet op at the moment, altough I'm still at act 7. I'm lvl 60 and would like to polish more my build and start using/leveling up and skill gems I'll need later. I'm a juggernaut, main skill is cyclone, I use a two handed sword, I'm a purely phys dmg dealer. So, my questions:
- My crit chance is only 5%. With precise aura it's only 8%. Should I put points on crit chance skill nodes, or is it only advised for builds who focus everything around crit?
- I use two auras at the moment. I read somewhere that players tend to use 5-6 auras endgame. I don't understand how. My two auras at the moment reserve 99% of my mana pool. My mana regen and mana leech is op, so I can play with only 1% of it, but don't know how could I slot more auras.
- Is there any way to support aura skills? I haven't found anything useful only something that gives them bigger radius, but is there maybe something that lowers their mana requirement?
- I use cast on damage taken with molten shell and enfeeble. I could add another red skill gem, but which? Atm I am using one which gives 50% more uptime for molten shell and enfeeble. Not sure if it's useful at all, but have no idea what other red skill could I put here.
Thank you!

When the showrunners selected James Spader for the role of Raymond Reddington at the last minute, to be her co-star, I'm sure Megan had many contrasting feelings about the choice. Could she hold her own in scenes with him?
Here she was, a relative newbie, taking on a serious T.V. drama series opposite one of the prevailing experienced actors in Hollywood. But I'm sure she was looking forward to the challenge and the experience that would be gained by pairing up with him on this project.
With each season, her acting continued to develop and improve as she gained experience and insights from James and her fellow actors. One could see the chemistry that was developing between her and James. She was bringing that compatibility in "spades". To me, that is why we had many fans conflicted about the true nature of their feelings for each other, as part of the endgame. Because that intensity between them could have been interpreted in different ways.
Whether her interaction with him was adversarial, or more partnering like, she was forced to go toe to toe with him emotion wise in many scenes throughout the series.
Was she on a par with him acting wise ? Certainly not, but she was getting better and better. Some of their intense caring scenes, as well as their confrontational "dust ups" where quite engaging and noteworthy.
I think she "went along" to "get along" with what the showrunners were doing with her character, even if sometimes it seemed a little bizarre the way she was written to be unable to get a firm handle on what her true relationship feelings for Red were going to be.
At times she was very reasonable and rational, and then she would become adversarial, illogical, vindictive and unfair to Red. Why did the writers interject this rollercoaster of conflicting emotions that would be recycled time after time, even after she knew that he loved her and would give his life for her, if necessary.
Just "spit-balling" here, but this might have led to Megan becoming disenchanted with what the writers were doing to her character. (She sat out almost half of season 8, and didn't sign up for season 9. Of course, I'm sure contract disagreement may have played a part in that.)
Regardless of how the series was adversely affected by season 8, Megan brought her own individual expertise and acting skills to bear in this series and it should build positively upon her acting portfolio.
The only thing in my mind is, will she continue to build her career, or veer off into producing instead. I hope she does more quality acting work, while the iron is hot and people recognize her for this work as Elizabeth Keen. Fame is fleeting.

This years we had a bumper crop of black walnuts.. I’ve heard them rolling down my soffit to roof vent on several ovcassions… said unwanted tenants seem to enjoy the warmth our home provided.. to the point where the 1 unfinished room has had more than a few “sightings”… mostly at night… The bathroom floor while not finished IS heated.. In the last week we’ve managed to catch 6-8… Larry, (#9) was basking in the warmth of said radiant heat, was caught with a Harbor Freight magnetic/prolific grabber type device & dropped into the “pool” (one of the many mouse traps set about)…. I don’t believe “Larry “ would’ve stood a chance against Mark Spitz… he was quickly retrieved & dropped into the “pool”…. My concern is they are definitely coming in through minuscule openings.. The current kill rate is encouraging.. but these guys from doing the nasty, to having a litter in 3 weeks… (facts as a redneck should know… but didn’t)… how long will this battle ensue?? I’m pretty dedicated.. and the mice don’t give a flying F*ck about their “friends”… (caught mice don’t typically consume the excess peanut butter) unless they’re fair weather friends at beast… not looking to kill my dogs.. or other family members… but Jesus fuck!!! Every 3weeks there’s a whole batch of potentially hantavirus assholes in my house????
I have in the past made “cry the mouse” mouse traps (120vac)…. The swimming challenge (Mark Spitz)… I had a few more elaborate that never made it to fruition… I don’t want these disease carrying assholes leaving viruses around my house… I’ve been told any firearm with a “gauge” in the description is out….
What’s your most effective rodent killer that won’t butthurt anyone???

So for the last several raids the community has tried to settle on a relatively simple strat, one that doesn't require too much coordination from our random online allies. Obviously we don't yet know what tricks Samurott will have, but I came up with something that I think will work barring something crazy. For those who don't want to read further, the gist is that one person brings a Koraidon that knows Helping Hand, and the other 3 bring Iron Moths that know Acid Spray and Overheat. There is a backup plan (in case Samurott has a Ground type move) where the other 3 use Armarouge. Koraidon uses Attack Cheer turn 1, then Helping Hands whichever Iron Moth is healthiest. The Moths use Acid Spray turn 1, then only use Overheat if Koraidon used Helping Hand on them.
I know that these pokemon choices seem odd, but I'll explain. I wanted pokemon that could threaten a OHKO without needing to buff themselves, only debuff the enemy. I also wanted a relatively small number of different pokemon involved, where everyone's job would be pretty self-explanatory. Since Sun provides a huge boost to Fire moves, I started there. Overheat, Flare Blitz, and Pyro Ball stood out as strong moves. Among the pokemon with access to 1 of those moves, Iron Moth, Armarouge, Miraidon, and Koraidon were the only ones that also learned the appropriate debuffs.
Koraidon looked promising, but even with Samurott at -6 def it JUST BARELY misses the OHKO. It looks like a great option to solo, but a full group of them may end up waffling between Screech and Swords Dance and accidentally trigger the shield. So if we're aiming for a OHKO with strangers, Koraidon will have to settle for bringing the Sun and Helping Hand support. Miraidon also doesn't quite have the juice, though there would be a good argument for bringing it instead of 1 Iron Moth to provide Electric Terrain.
Iron Moth and Armarouge, obviously, suffer from their weakness to Water. However, Sun reduces the damage by enough that both comfortably survive any 2 non-crit Water moves that might come their way. They both also outspeed Samurott and we get the KO on turn 2 so they shouldn't even need to survive a 2nd attack unless Samurott throws one out in the pre-fight. Iron Moth is pretty clearly superior as it has notably higher SpA and 4x resists Bug. It is less physically bulky, but it hits so hard that you can actually invest more in defenses and still hit the KO. The only reason to consider Armarouge is that Iron Moth takes a TON from Ground moves, where Armarouge can take 2 of anything Samurott knows.
Now, there are still things that would turn this sideways. Samurott resetting its stats turn 2 would be bad but manageable with a change to turn 1; Armarouge could Calm Mind or set up screens, Iron Moth could Light Screen or Electric Terrain (for Quark Drive), and Koraidon could Defense Cheer. This is riskiest for Armarouge, which takes big chunks from Megahorn regardless. The scariest thing for me though would be Rain Dance. Any of these pokes could easily run Sunny Day but the fight becomes less and less predictable if a weather war breaks out and most of the team is 1 rain-boosted Hydro Pump away from death. Speaking of making the fight unpredictable, Samurott has access to both Taunt and Encore, but honestly if it does that I'm probably only running it with friends.
Now for some damage calcs so everyone can see that we get the KO and aren't KOd ourselves. Our Iron Moth is actually oriented heavily toward bulk, as a paltry 48 SpA EVs are enough to guarantee the OHKO.
48+ SpA Life Orb Iron Moth Helping Hand Atk cheer Overheat vs. -6 0 HP / 0 SpD Tera Bug Samurott in Sun: 9982-11745 (100.5 - 118.2% of 30x hp boss) -- guaranteed OHKO0 Atk Tera Bug Samurott Aqua Tail vs. 0 HP / 252 Def Iron Moth in Sun: 102-122 (33.8 - 40.5%) -- guaranteed 3HKO0 SpA Tera Bug Samurott Hydro Pump vs. 0 HP / 216 SpD Iron Moth in Sun: 96-114 (31.8 - 37.8%) -- 85.6% chance to 3HKO
Armarouge needs a good bit more SpA investment and takes much bigger chunks from almost any move that isn't Drill Run, but it still survives as long as we actually need.
164+ SpA Life Orb Armarouge Helping Hand Atk cheer Overheat vs. -6 0 HP / 0 SpD Tera Bug Samurott in Sun: 9954-11714 (100.2 - 117.9% of 30x hp boss) -- guaranteed OHKO0 SpA Tera Bug Samurott Hydro Pump vs. 0 HP / 252 SpD Armarouge in Sun: 114-134 (36.6 - 43%) -- guaranteed 3HKO0 Atk Tera Bug Samurott Megahorn vs. 0 HP / 96 Def Armarouge: 118-139 (37.9 - 44.6%) -- guaranteed 3HKO0 Atk Tera Bug Samurott Aqua Tail vs. 0 HP / 96 Def Armarouge in Sun: 86-104 (27.6 - 33.4%) -- 0% chance to 3HKO
So there we have it. A pretty simple yet effective strategy that strangers could pull off without coordination. They might even have the power to punch through the shield if an Iron Moth gets antsy and attacks without the Cheer or Helping Hand, depending on exactly what surprises Samurott has in store. So what do we think, does it have potential?

All values in USD.
Assets and Debt
Retirement Balance: nope because I'm planning on leaving the US (for my bf) after finishing school. Not sure how retirement balance works across countries.
Equity: nope but almost bit and bought a house in the middle of the insane housing price crisis? windfall?? in 2021. Boy would my life be different rn
Savings account balance: zip but 90k in bonds
Checking account balance: 60k
Credit card debt: nada, and using a debit card in Europe
Student loan debt: nothing, because my parents (bless them) paid for my (subsidized, bless FAFSA + need based scholarships) college tuition, and I got a free masters (thanks to my advisor + TAships) and am currently doing a free (aka on my advisor's bill again lmao + TAships) phd
Income
Income Progression: a string of tech internships (every single summer except freshman and masters and first year of phd) with pay from between 5500/month to 11000/month (pre-tax, adjusted for bonus and currency exchange rate) That high end was from a fancy startup and pre-brexit lmaoooo. Low end was gov work. And my current phd income is 2500/month, so this is actually an income regression lol
Main Job Monthly Take Home: Current internship is 5000/month but my overall taxes are low because I'm not here long enough for it to bump up my income taxes more than one rung. So keep in mind I make like 1700/month the rest of the year
Side Gig Monthly Take Home: I wish! Once I get my big girl job I'm going remote and setting up a ceramics studio, a grocery store, and then volunteering and making games. Work can go stuff itself. Honestly the more and more I work the more and more I feel like I want to turn stage left exit society, tyvm. People meme academia as being abstract and useless (and sometimes toxic...that one's deserved maybe) but unless you are at a specific type of company, corporate research can be equally "useless" but by way of having insanely short (as in, to production by year's end) deadlines so you're kind of forced to "fit a square peg into a round hole" eg work on a business problem that you (or your higher up) did not spend enough time defining and then somehow make it look like research when maybe the most cost-effective solution was something else entirely...sorry for rant
Do your parents pitch in monthly? Been financially independent since last year...to my great surprise. I used to be financially independent since undergrad graduation but apparently my mom started sneakily paying off my CC debt again in my phd so I had to change the linked bank account back. My mom thinks I'm poor lmao...I'm not
Expenses
Rent (includes utilities): 2000 ouch (Europe) + 500 (US) monthly
Transport: bike (free after fixed costs, yay!) and bus (free with school)
Renters insurance: none. Getting renter's insurance is like wearing my retainer...everyone tells me to do it (including myself) but I make up a million excuses as to not
Savings contribution: whatever's left in the month. Usually 400+-100
Investment contribution: is the stock market even real? I'm just kidding. But I don't really understand my finances, and I feel embarrassed about that, but at the same time I feel like after factoring in all my personal considerations, I'm better off not doing anything other than guaranteed bonds.
Debt payments: no. college is done, no house, no car
Cellphone: Prepaid in Europe, like 5 a month. But my US phone is actually on my parent's family plan. So I guess I'm still not financially independent...
Subscriptions: Occasional magazines 50 annually, school union 100 annually
Regular therapy: None. Therapy has been a hit and miss for me
Paid hobbies: Art supplies like 100 a year, books like 300 annually, audio like 100, bike stuff 100, kitchen stuff...400, fancy specialty ingredients...800, clothes 400 but my mom gifts me a lot over the holidays like 500-1000 worth, and gifts for f&f I budget around 800 a year

[Tuesday]
7am: wake. super groggy. Drink two gulps of fanta to actually wake and immediately regret it
8am: on the bus to work. Today is going to be a slow day which is nice.
8:30am: grab a rhubarb and rose yogurt for breakfast ($2). Delicious. Have to order this somehow when I'm back in the states.
12pm: Brought eggplant and bolognese for lunch. Eat with another intern and talk random stuff about our phds.
4:30pm: leaving early cuz today is my bf's last night in the country. I head to a bakery and grab a croissant and pretzel and baguette ($7) for him as an apology for an argument we had yesterday. I also head to a grocery to grab a pumpkin ($10) for curry later. I race to the bus! Almost miss it. Everyone is looking at me because I'm panting and I feel that strange awkwardness you get from being caught running without gym clothes.
6pm: Back home. We heat up leftovers (ramen for me and bolognese for him) and watch a chill video about balancing in gaming. It was either this or a math video and the math video was too long.
7pm: I ask him about when he's coming back to see me so I can let my mom know if my schedule fits my family's June paris trip or not (my mom's extremely hyped about this so I would like to come.) Because he's been dragging his feet figuring out his schedule we get into another argument, which then carries back into our argument from yesterday.
9pm: Answer some emails and book a flight for my return trip because my sister is going to her dream college and I want to be with her on visit week ($156)
10pm: I'm trying to read my paper for tomorrow's meeting but it's not going well because we are still talking about our problems
12pm: We cuddle and sleep. Argument's not resolved because neither wants to give
Total: 19 (Food) + 156 (Plane)
[Wednesday]
6am: wake. notice that it's 6am and go back to sleep
7am: wake and wake up bf. He's leaving today and so we cuddle, but like sadly (LDR, whats new.) Eventually I get hungry so I go and munch on plums. I am a bit distracted because I have a lot of meetings that I'm not well prepared for.
8:30am: catch bus. We joke a bit about yesterday's argument. Eventually, say goodbye when I transfer trams. I watch a video to prepare for my first meeting on the tram. Then I have a meeting, read to prepare for next meeting, rinse, repeat. Go out to eat with coworkers ($18)--conversations are so awkward (because of me. I don't have the extra mental capacity to try socializing with overworked dudes 4 years older than me and I've lost a concerning amount of EQ over the course of my phd.)
2:00pm: After a particularly stressful meeting (went well, thanks to my clutch skills) I decide I need to take a walk outside as a break. I go to the bakery to buy a chocolatine and apple danish ($5). I am not even hungry. I am just retail theraping and desserts look cute and smell good. Head back and have string of meetings until the end of the day. Very angry about my schedule
5:30pm: say fuck it cuz my brain is shot and go home. Why am I the only one who leaves before 6? Isn't this supposed to be Europe? I hate working a 9-6.
6pm: eat dinner (ramen), shower with rice on the stove (no rice cooker), rice burns omg now the bottom of the pan is burnt. I soak the pan overnight and leave my personal pan out for people to use.
7pm: reddit as revenge procrastination. I make a note to buy steel wool for the burnt pan
9pm: start writing money diary. Have wayy too much fun writing money diary while snacking on Comte and aloe vera water
11pm: realize its late and I have to finish reading a paper for Friday. I read a bit of the paper
1am: sleep

[Thursday]
6am: Wake and look at random stuff on reddit for an hour and a half. I don't feel that hungry so I head out to work.
8:30am: I am very sleepy for some reason. I don't have a lot of meetings today, so I check emails, slack, and find a manageable task for the day. I end up getting distracted dealing with administrivia (ugh visa work!) I see that I have a seminar I want to attend the night and mark that down too.
10am: I decide I should try doing something productive so I start brainstorming. It doesn't really get anywhere, but I've realized that I probably need to read another paper to get a better idea of what I should do.
12pm: Head out to eat with other interns. I get shawarama ($16.) Delicious. Head back for more meetings. I try to read a bit but my focus is pretty shot so I start doing a more chill writeup instead.
7pm: We are having drinks at a bar tonight, and it takes time for people to get ready so I work late. We head out to the bar, which is crowded. I order a burger and soda because I don't want to make my sickness worse ($20.) We have a good time chatting and I get closer with some coworkers I didn't know well.
7:45pm: I say goodbye and leave early. As I'm scrolling through my phone on the late night bus, I realize that I've missed the seminar. I'm legitimiately devastated. I was thinking this seminar would help a lot with me pushing through a huge bottleneck in my thesis that's been stressing me out for the last year. I panic message my labmate to ask if the seminar was recorded, and thank the fucking lord, buddha, allah, hayao miyazaki, yes. It was recorded. My pants on fire are doused, my soul is saved. I cannot wait to fucking graduate.
9pm: I get back and notice the cleaning lady's cleaned the burnt pan. I feel a bad but grateful. After showering I am tired as hell. I really can't work today, but I stubbornly stay awake thinking that if I lay in bed scrolling through eBay long enough I might recharge. It doesn't work but I find some really nice stuff (cool architectural glass vase from a designer whose stuff I usually hate, secondhand clothes from one of my fav designers, suitcase from a brand with a style that I love but quality that is absolute trash for its price, and a gift for my college friend for her next bday) that I want to bid on.
11pm: Sleep

[Friday]
6am: Wake and look at videos but now with zen. I have come to terms with my laziness. I get out of bed at 7:30 instead of 7:45 (progress!) and I snack on the chocolatine from two days ago. I finally find the time and motivation to deal with some administrivia and I head to work. On my morning bus trips, I like to press my forehead against the cool window glass and zone out to stripes of greenery but today I'm thinking about eBay and how I might travel to go visit my favorite eBay stores in person lol. A quick google search shows that a roundtrip ticket is $200. Interesting.
12am: Nice lunch with coworkers at a bakery. I get a croissant sandwich ($6) and a gift for one of my coworker friends ($14).
4pm: I wrap up writing a draft and go chat and review some stuff for school and then catch up with my coworker friend to give her the gift. 6pm: Head to the grocery for a dinner salad, plums, and some orange-mango juice ($13). Look for steel wool but there is none???
6:30pm: shower because I feel a little under the weather.
8pm: call my bf and tell him some juicy gossip at work. He gets bored around the 1 hour mark.
11pm: I start working on my writeup for school. I message the dude who is receiving the writeup that it's gonna be late. He is really nice about it but I feel like I'm taking advantage of his kindness because I am always late. Disappointed in myself but not sure how to change.

6am: wake. Seriously not motivated to continue the writeup. I waste time on eBay and youtube for 5 hours.
11am: get dressed, brush teeth, and look alive. I've been planning out my day a bit so I call my bf while I clean my room and check up on my fridge. I toss out a quarter kg of ground beef that I forgot to finish, it is two days past expiry. I take stock of what I need for meal prep this week (carrot, onion, meat, steel wool) and load up my laundry before heading to the grocery. I end up also getting a lightweight aluminum bowl (it says stainless steel though??) for washing, blueberries, dried mangos, mushroom medley ($35.) I make curry with rice for next week and rice balls to add to miso soup later.
4pm: Eat curry. I call my bf after and try to write my writeup but I get very frustrated over trying to understand a paper and complain to my bf
7pm: I head over to my friend's place for a going-away party. I feel a bit ambivalent about attending because I still have my writeup but I had already agreed to come and I will miss these people when they leave. I want to aim to leave around 9pm. The host's house is lovely and we have some great food.
9:40pm: I head back home, shower, and work on my writeup.
11pm: sleep

7am: wake. My wakeup time is off from normal but then I remember that today is daylight savings in Europe. I still feel tired so I end up watching some dumb videos on youtube. I bid on two items on eBay ($70...tentatively). My friend from uni messages me about meeting up to chat tonight. Hyped.
11:45am: I remember my clothes are still in the dryer. The landlord wants the laundry room free between 11am and 3pm for airbnb reasons. I rush down to grab them. I got there right on time because the landlord has 3 minutes on the washer left.
12pm: Heat up curry and eat it with an apple, some Comte, and a plum. I take a supplement with water. I've been forgetting to do that.
12:30pm: Start working on writeup. I am determined to finish it before there is no sun left so I can enjoy the outdoors a little this weekend. Have my bf on vc.
4pm: One of my bfs jokes lands the wrong way and we have to talk about it. I'm fuming mad because I'm wasting time here.
6pm: Facetime with my friend from college! It's been awhile so we catch up for a long time. 9pm: Heat dinner (curry) and eat. Then I go and read a bit more.
11pm: I have a bit of a mental breakdown because I can't finish the writeup by the weekend, and it's not because I don't have time, but because I have bad mental health around it. I have a long heart to heart with my bf over the phone. I cry a little. Life is sometimes hard and everyone's life is really hard at some point. At some point I just start rambling about nothing. I fall asleep at 1:30am.

4am: wake. I have a bit of a shitty morning because my eyes are still swollen. I woke up early to work on this writeup but tbh I'm barely awake and not in the mood. This was a bad idea. I intermittenly wake and sleep between 4am and 6am, of which at tail end I realize that I'm just playing myself for a fool and then I actually sleep for a good hour or so.
7:15am: Wake for real and get ready.
8:30am: Arrive at work. I buy yogurt ($2) and eat a banana while checking emails. I decide to use company time to work on my writeup because I'm blocked at work by someone else right now anyways (this is about as far as my lukewarm ass will r antiwork.)
12am: Lunch with coworkers. I have a sandwich I really don't care for ($10.) I'm a bit woozy from lack of sleep so I don't remember much. Also, I got my period.
1pm: Meetings, meetings, meetings. So many meetings.
6:30pm: Meetings end. Catch up with my intern friend before she leaves. Will miss her. I go the grocery to buy a baguette ($1) and then go to the fancy, overpriced but also conveniently-located-right-next-to-my-bus-stop bakery to get a croissant and chocolates for my period ($25.)
7:30pm: I grab Mickey D's because I want to. Fish filet sandwich, fries, chicken nuggets, and a soft drink ($18.)

Honestly, this was the first time in a long time that I had done such a detailed review of my week. I was honestly a bit impressed by how often I wound up on eBay (ngl the times I'm on reddit, I'm oftentimes searching for new brands and designers I like, so that I can go find them...on eBay. It kind of feels a little like I may have a bit of a shopping addiction?) I use it wayy too often to cope. The nice thing about it is that I always find great deals on eBay, but I think it's probably time to switch hobbies.
Also, I need better work hygiene. Like sleep hygiene but for work. I might start going into the office weekends just so that I can wrap up stuff early, leave, and then actually have a weekend.
This week was a bit pricier than usual because I ate out for dinner and bought a plane ticket, but tbh it's not that ooc for me. Food is almost exactly the same as what I spend a week in the US and usually I budget 400/m for misc stuff so it seems like my habits haven't changed much even after moving lol. I know some people might balk at the idea of 800/m for food and 400/m discretionary spending on a 2k/m income but being no car + having the school pay for my insurance (& offering a lot of free things in general) + most importantly, no debt makes it less of a dangerous risk and more of a poor choice lmao. In Europe, I think I will end up spending more on misc things here than back in the US because Europe offers a higher density of concerts, entertainment, and designers that I like within a 30 euros train distance (and 200 euros plane distance for the ones I really like.) My personal preference is to spend <2 hours a month total thinking abt finances (so basically budgeting if I have a major life change + just going thru my CC statement and updating my tracker) so I am happy with how I spend and prefer to overspend a bit rather than think about it too much.
For those who are curious, my monthly budget here:
food (weekly): 70 for groceries + unavoidable 50 for eating with coworkers 3x a week
overall (monthly): 3700 (income) - 2500 (rents) = 1200 - 300 (food after sodexo) = 900 - 600 (misc spending) = 300 (base savings) + 1000 (relocation) = 1300 (total savings) + a bit more after tax return

Hope you enjoyed reading! I'm curious to see people's reactions.

As India’s population ages, the need for senior living options is overgrowing. Independent senior Living is an option gaining popularity among India’s elderly population. It offers a comfortable and secure living environment, as well as a range of services and amenities designed specifically for the needs of seniors. In this blog post, we will discuss the benefits of independent senior Living in India and some of the factors seniors should consider when choosing a community.

Benefits of Independent Senior Living

1. Comfortable Living Environment — Independent senior living communities offer various housing options, from apartments to villas, with modern amenities such as elevators, power backup, and 24-hour security.
2. Social Interaction — Independent senior living communities allow seniors to socialize with like-minded individuals and participate in group activities and events.
3. Health and Wellness — Many communities offer on-site healthcare services like doctor consultations, diagnostic tests, and physiotherapy. There are also fitness centers, yoga classes, and swimming pools for seniors to maintain their physical and mental well-being.
4. Safety and Security — Independent senior living communities have round-the-clock security measures, such as CCTV surveillance, security guards, and emergency response systems, ensuring the safety and well-being of residents.

One of the primary reasons for the growth of independent senior living in India is the increasing number of nuclear families. As younger generations move away from their parents to pursue educational and career opportunities, there is a growing need for senior living options to provide a safe and supportive environment for older adults who may not have the same level of support from their families. Additionally, many seniors are choosing to downsize their homes and live in a community setting that offers maintenance-free living and access to healthcare services.
Another factor contributing to the growth of independent senior living in India is the increasing awareness of the benefits of a healthy and active lifestyle. Many communities offer a range of amenities and services that promote physical and mental wellness, such as fitness centers, yoga classes, and social activities. These services can help seniors maintain their independence, improve their quality of life, and reduce their risk of chronic diseases.

Choosing independent senior Living in India can provide several benefits for seniors, including:

1. Location — The community’s location is essential, as seniors may prefer to live near their family and friends or in a quiet and peaceful neighborhood.
2. Amenities and Services — Seniors should look for communities offering amenities and services, such as housekeeping, transportation, and meal services.
3. Affordability — Independent senior living costs vary depending on the location, amenities, and services offered. Seniors should evaluate their budget and choose a community that meets their financial needs.
4. Reputation — Seniors should research the reputation of the community, its management, and its staff and read reviews from current and former residents.
5. Convenience — Many independent senior living communities provide transportation services for residents to nearby shopping centers, medical facilities, and cultural events.
6. Maintenance-free Living — Living in an independent senior Living community means that seniors can enjoy maintenance-free Living without worrying about repairs or upkeep.
7. Reduced stress — Seniors can experience reduced stress levels in independent senior living communities as they can access various support services and avoid the burdens of maintaining a home.
8. Freedom — Independent senior living communities offer seniors the freedom to come and go without worrying about safety or security.

The demand for independent senior Living in India is expected to grow in the coming years, and many new communities are being built to meet the increasing need. As a result, seniors have a wide range of options, making it easier to find a community that fits their needs and preferences.
In conclusion
Independent senior Living in India offers several benefits that can significantly improve the quality of life for seniors. It provides a comfortable and secure living environment with various services and amenities designed for their needs. Seniors should carefully consider the abovementioned factors when choosing a community to ensure they find the best fit for their needs and preferences.

After working way too hard, I scored an 8 ball. The dude that made the connect I know, but the plug I don’t so I decided to split the ball and wash a gram. It’s now in the drying phase and I hope it turns out great. I did a line of the unckesned stuff on a hot plate and it’s pretty good so extra curioys! I’ll keep you all posted.

I’m too exhausted and stoned to really dump everything that’s in my head tonight. The important part is that I’m fucking exhausted and I just want everything to be over. Every part of my life will always be extra work because of my depression, OCD, and ADHD. I have no desire to be someone else’s servant for shit pay just to barely make it by each month because of how many extra steps every single tiny fucking thing in life is for me. I’m incapable of so many basic things that I need to do or know to function properly, whether as a human or in society. I won’t bore everyone with listing out it all, because half of it is probably fucking embarrassing. Basically I wasn’t taught anything I should have been as a child and everyone thought it would be fine in the long run but it’s fucking not.
I’ve put so much work into trying to get better for over 12 years now and I’m fucking tired, dude. I’m holding on by a thread for my cat and dog because they’d never understand why I never came home (even though I’ve told those closest to me that when I die my only wish is for my animals to be able to see my body in person so hopefully they will understand, but I don’t know if I trust it to be honored because I was somewhat made fun of for it I guess) and I know it would really hurt some people. Though, that last one is rocky, because it’s selfish and unfair of them to ask me to stay and suffer just so they won’t.
I’m tired of being begged to stay. I’m sick of every reason I give being met with “but” and clichés. I’d say I just want someone’s permission, validation that I’m allowed to do whatever I want with my life even if that means ending it, but I don’t have the fucking balls to do it myself anyway. Really almost succeeded a couple times 8 years ago but pills sucked, plus big fail risk.
I just wish some freak accident would happen when I’m out by myself or driving or something. Too much guilt to put effort into making and following through with a plan. Too much guilt to not leave a note, but too overwhelmed by my mind to properly word one. Just make it all fucking end already. Just understand that not everyone is meant to see old age.

Guys! its long but please read my story! to start off I was about 9.5 weeks pregnant, and after many weeks of back and forth i decided to go forth with an abortion. For background on myself i am a diagnosed hypochondriac and to say i have health anxiety is a complete understatement. (i literally went to the ER 35 times in one year) I cant even properly explain to you the amount of panic, fear, crying, and sleepless nights i had up to this.... and it was all for nothing!!!! the day of my appt I went with the intention of having a surgical abortion, I got to the appt, got right up on the table and right before she was about to administer sedation i backed out. Thats how bad my anxiety is, I couldn't even bear the thought of sedation. I opted for medical that day at the appointment. I was panicking even getting my rh shot, googling side effects and losing my ever loving mind. I took the first pill. That day i came home and rested. I noticed i was mildly lightheaded. I spent the ENTIRE night on this thread, other threads, reading absolute horror stories. I was in sheer panic. more than terrified. eventually I Went to bed, (well tried anyways I didnt really sleep). I woke up with the intention of taking the second set of pills at 145 pm. But you guessed it, I couldn't do it. I was so intensely scared it stopped me from taking them for hours. Around 545 pm, I wiped and there was blood. a moderate ammount, i panicked because I hadnt even taken the second set of pills yet, why was i bleeding? Called my clinic and they said its not common, but my body had started the process after recognizing the first pill stopped the growth, and to continue on with the second pills to be safe. I proceeded to cry and panic, and then Eventually I forced myself at 645 pm. (the sheer anxiety was so bad as i remembered all the stories i read) While these dissolved i walked outside on my property as that eases my anxiety. I pictured myself in agony , puking, begging for help etc. the absolute worst. I was also nervous because i was a bit further along and thought that meant more pain, more blood. more of everything bad. Not even before the 30 mins were up, The cramps started. Id say about 710 pm. at 715 i swallowed the pills, i did notice they didnt fully disolve however i believe thats okay? took two tylenol and an advil right then and there. they were in my lower back mostly at first. the bleeding started right away as well but was fairly light-moderate at this point. I came inside and braced myself, i will say they intensified quick. i found that pacing and walking eased my pain rather than standing or sitting still. I would say the cramps got to about a 6.5/10 at their peak. this lasted about an hour.(nothing i couldnt handle, it didnt even bring me to tears) i breathed, and held a heating pad on my lower abdomen. this helped. I found the cramps to be similar to when you have a poo cramp thats very bad. i didnt find it came in waves,it was more constant for me. eventually i had an urge to push like i had to poo on the toilet , however nothing came out. the bleeding was still nothing heavy yet. (sitting on the toilet helped the pain a great deal as well) while i was here i noticed my body started to shake similar to when you have a panic attack this literally only lasted about three minutes. I will add i was SO scared of the nausea and i quite literally experienced none. I also didnt eat prior to this from my nerves and had tylenol and advil in my system. I stood back up, went into my room and felt a rush accompanied by a dull ache in my actual vagina near the opening, ran to the toilet and passed two large clots with a great deal of blood. when i tell you i had INSTANT relief im not kidding. the pain literally disappeared. vanished. The bleeding did intesify at this point and is much heavier than a period. after this i was hungry, layed down , ate some soup drank some gatorade and watched a movie with literally zero pain. I will say that every 15-20 mins i did feel a gush and would pass clots. this lasted about two hours maybe if that. its 1250 am now, i have had one cramp about every 30 mins sometimes accompanied by rushes of blood but its not even noticeable really.3/10. my bleeding has already started to lessen and is equivalent to a regular period. ive changed my pad about three times in six hours. and some of thise i didnt even "need" to. one syomtom i didnt expect is i am having a decent ammount of gas. i can feel it rumbling in my belly but isnt painful. i am belching a lot though. I took one tylenol about an hour ago just incase but i could have done without it! The cramps im experiencing are similar to your period, and come in waves but last about two seconds. I come to you eating chips and dip on my couch extremly relieved and happy. I cant even believe that was IT. IF YOU ARE SCARED TRUST ME I UNDERSTAND! i have literally never been more scared to do something in my life and almost backed out not caring of the consequences. i panicked for 24 hours straight. i really sid not think i could dogiven my health anxiey and what i expected the oain to be like. insoent HOURS googling aall the ways i could die. I literally anticipated an exorcism. Not even close!! heres my advvice and takeaways, 1. be with someone you trust. I did this with my grandma who has been my biggest supporter my whole life and her calmness helped me. 2. HEAT PAD OR HOT WATER BOTTLE!! this helped so much! 3. if you dont want to lay down and cant sit still, don't. I know everyone says rest but walking actually eased my pain immensely!! 4. sitting on the toilet helps. I don't know why. 5. Control your breathing, dont let yourself get heightened as that actually sends more signals to your brain that something is wrong and can increase pain. 6. I aslo talked to my aunt and friend on the phone during the worst of the cramps, this distracted me. Alrhough there were points where I wasnt able to talk, feeling like someone was there helped. 7. dont anticipate the worst. I know its scary. I know all the awful stories are terrifying, but take me as an example... A walking stress ball of health anxiety... with a low pain tomerance and im FINE. completely unscathed with zero complications (so far) and literally zero pain six hours in. YOU CAN DO THIS!!! 8. If you feel like taking the pain meds you are prescribed (i was prescribed t 3's would help you- take them. I only didnt because again my anxiety is heightened when i feel high or sedated etc, if that doesnt bother you take them!!! 9. rotate tylenol and advil. 10. lastly, go with the motions. it will be okay. its temporary. This will be a memory one day. No pain lasts forever. You got this!!!!
