I’m a doctor. Here’s why I wouldn’t get a full-body MRI scan.
Celebrities sing their praises, but I’m not convinced the average person needs or should spend their money on one.

There is an invisible layer that affects many friendships in Bengaluru.
That layer is called urban and civic exhaustion.
Friendships don’t fade because people don’t care. They fade because the city quietly drains the energy required to sustain them.
The traffic takes an hour out of your evening. Work spills into what used to be personal time. Weekends become recovery periods rather than social ones.
You start saying things like:
“Let’s meet soon.”
“Next week for sure.”
“Once things settle down.”
Things rarely settle down.
What earlier required a 10 minute auto ride now requires planning, coordination, and stamina. You have to build stamina to be rejected by drivers on apps, to cross under constructed sites, to take long jumps over open drainages and collect dust on your face.
Friendships slowly move from physical spaces to WhatsApp reactions and Instagram replies.
The affection is still there. The intent is still there.
But the civic friction of the city sits between people.
In cities like Bengaluru, maintaining friendships has quietly become an act of effort. And sometimes, effort is the first casualty of urban and civic exhaustion.
By studying samples analyzed by the Curiosity rover, scientists have taken another step toward understanding whether life could have ever existed on Mars.
A new study suggests that non-biological sources cannot fully account for the abundance of organic compounds found in a sample collected by the rover.

@rashmibansal@rons1212 I found it recently in a super market. Bought it out of nostalgia. I really did credit my hair to coconut oil+halo combo. The hairfall after a 2-3 weeks was insane. I am guessing with all new brands in the late 90s, the price quality tradeoff got Halo
@karthik2k2@sundar_s1955 Isn’t this a reflection of secondary vs tertiary vs quartenary care mix of the chains? HCG is oncology- avg bill per patient is higher. Shalby is TKR/THR. Jupiter is a CoE for transplants. Other corporate chains are more broad based with a wider mix of specialties!
Because I am stuck in an infinite AI loop with no option to talk to a human vs your robotic BOT. Just a terrible experience these last few months. I have run out of patience (3/3)
@UC_Assist@urbancompany_UC AI is supposed to make your customer experience better not create infernal hell for your customers. Your service has deteriorated terribly over the last one year. (1/3)
The last 3 bookings of salon luxe services I’ve had an issue of beautician accepting the booking and then canceling at the last minute. How is this a luxe experience? You unilaterally cancel and reschedule to a random
Slot. As always there is no way to reach your help desk (2/3)

@kiran_nambiar@airindia This has happened to me even for seats I paid for. I had to create a scene at checkin and then I was alotted the seat back. It is really bizarre how Air India is operating nowadays.
@airindia I don’t understand how the bag has gone missing after being found on the flight. If you were to take a close look at this picture you can see my seat number and flight number mentioned by one of your employees Amal. Like I said- one or more of your employees are thieves. Shame!
@airindia it’s amazing that instead of rising up to Vistara standards you’ve brought them down to your abysmal standards. Your staff are a bunch of thieves. I traveled from Del -BLR on Dec 13,2024. I had the misfortune of leaving a bag behind in the aircraft. 1/n
@airindia this is just daylight robbery. Customer care is extremely unhelpful and ask that I keep visiting the airport (bangalore airport is not in the city that I can keep hopping over). Please look into this 5/n
I remembered once I existed in the airport. I promptly called the customer care number and spoke to an agent called Priyanka who took down my details but did not issue any ticket number (red flag #1). I flew from BLR on Dec 16, 2024. Your ground staff was very helpful and 2/n
Even located my bag in the staff lost and found WhatsApp group. However, when I went to the desk your staff straight up said no bag was found. I am sharing a picture for your reference (of your employee’s phone). I’ve been to airport twice to no avail 3/n
