How Mukesh Ambani and Isha Ambani are Reshaping Reliance Retail: The Impact of Closing Centro Stores

Mukesh Ambani and Isha Ambani’s choice to close failing to meet expectations stores under Dependence Retail, especially those marked as “Centro,” is a determined move to reinforce the organization’s monetary and functional productivity. This choice is affected by the monetary strain of keeping up with stores in significant expense metropolitan regions, where costly rents and production network…

For realsies Duke and Jason platonic soulmateisms got nothing to do with Jason glazing,i just want Duke to have something for once.........Instead of being advertised as 'the first black Robin' only to not get his own solos,not even be kept in the core Robins for THAT long and becoming Robin not through Bruce adoption but in one of the most demonic way's you could to a black underaged teenager by JOINING A GANG and giving them themes of 'self-relience' as 'empowerment' when they're a fucking child.We Are Robin,they could never make me like you as a Duke origin,especially because you didn't even include any black girls and gave Duke a nonblack love interest

I just want to clarify that I've read your posts and your answers to questions and I agree wholeheartedly with your assessment of the situation, my reblog is only meant to bring more information into the dialogue and point out the racism and microaggressions taking place while using your animal conservation as a shield.

I realized once I posted my reblog it may seem like I am targeting you specifically I am not, as screenshotting the amount of discrimination I have been weeding through ever since this post has enraged me as someone from a "lesser developed country" myself.

I wish you well in your endeavors, and I'm sorry your well intended message is being hijacked by racists.

Hi thank you for reaching out! Looking back I would definitely have re-wrote that post and definitely do some more research before posting it.

I do see some really nice habitats there too and I know that there is a genuine care for the animals despite the questionable handling - I didn't want to imply that the reason for the poor handling was purely because of country, poor welfare happens regardless of country, even with animal welfare laws in place.

Sub cultures and cultures with the zoo itself are usually what I've found to be the most detrimental to welfare. When I was brought in to help improve welfare and training for marine mammals in two different facilities - one in the Pacific Islands and another in a "western" modern facility - both places had their own major issues with lack of education/up to date knowledge, relience on outdated practises and cliques that formed as a front against any attempt to change things.

This was quite surprising to me considering the company I worked for in the western facility definitely had the resources and the money but had simply gotten stagnant and stuck in the "this is how we always do it."

The facility in the Pacific stagnated because of the culture too - but lack of resources and consistent funding was a huge factor in attempting to improve things (I had to buy enrichment for the animals out of my own pocket so that was fun lol)

So I guess what I'm trying to say is that the post was never suppoed to be implicating the fact that the zoo was in Thailand for the reason for poor handling.

And, you can see on my blog, I have been singing the praises of multiple facilities in Asia. I'm highly critical of any intense handling of exotic animals, especially in the US. When autonomy and the ability to leave the interaction is taken away for an animal, the interaction is more likely to become dangerous or cause stress to the animal.

But anyway I appreciate you letting me know your thoughts and I do not support any of the people leaving any sort of racist generalisation about South East Asia on that post. Especially because it is tourists coming in from western countries that are some of the biggest drivers for animal welfare issues in Thailand - such as the Tiger Temple.

If westerners were truly so "englightened" on animal welfare, there would be no profit gained from tourists participating in unethical animal experiences. But its not exactly shocking to see this, especially from Americans, who also actively participate in exploitation of exotic animals in their own country (the exotic pet trade is a nightmare there).

Anyway culture and people are complex and so are perceptions of animal welfare - thank you again for sharing your thoughts!

Weekly Runes (31/03/25)

The last one in March, or maybe the first one in April? It was a very... beginning-like reading.

Anyway you know the drill:

Meditate on the image for a second and pick one.

Ready?

1. Mannaz

Self. Self relience. Self observation. Self growth. 

This rune has been showing up constantly on the past readings and I got a feeling is not necessarily about selfishness, or self absorption, more like about survival. You know the airplane saying that you should put the mask on yourself first before helping others? That's what I get from here.

It's not selfishnes, it's not wrong. It's honoring who you are. As Loki usually tells me, "you can't keep others warm by burning yourself out", and I feel like this rune is a lot about this. 

You feel like responsibilities are above it, they are not. Find and respect the limits within you, there is your power.

2. Ingwaz

A rune of growth and fertility, nurturing, bringing things back to life and the cycle of existence. Sometimes things have to die so others can grow in their place.

An idea that maybe wasn't fitting anymore?

An old thought? Maybe a habit? 

Something is shifting and its time to let it go and let it grow.

3. Ansus

The god. The breathe of life. A rune about spirituality, wisdom, vision in the distance. 

This rune is particularly hard for me to explain the concept, although I do understand the energy.

The breath of life os everywhere, pay attention to the world around you for answers and the energies might guide you. Insights, information and vision usually comes from where we less expect it. Let wisdom be your guide.

I hope this resonates with some of you, if not it's okay too! Let me know what you think, please.

I am currently offering rune readings, just DM me if interested.

If you wanna support me or help in anyway, i have a ko-fi and an etsy store. Thank you again!

Traditional v.s Modern Astrology

I'm still studying Modern Astrology and found out that most people here used Modern Astrology, yet they are able to "at least" predict the future or have some thoughts about it which I think quite unusual because Modern astrology is more of a humanistic approach, which means it examines how the person's value for himself or herself, the development of self-awareness, and cultural diversity affect the future of humanity. This makes the predictions more accurate, and it is not focused on the event itself. (Remember the Carl Jung influence) . So don't fkvng believe them.

While in Traditional Astrology is more on judgemental. They are obsessed with prediction of events, and more often than not...It's limiting a person's beliefs, which makes them rely only on astrologers. That's why it seems so real, when it's not. esp if you followed their advice. Why? because as people develop self awareness, self relience and faith (from above or whatever) it actually effects their doings. Actions can determine the future. So here's the question why I'm into astrology? I don't event know, and half of me testing how accurate it was. I'm seeking for the truth. It makes me apply a different approach when giving interpretation. I think this is somehow connected so you need to be at least familiar with various astrology approaches. And since I'm studying traditional astrology (Hellinistic from Greek and hebrew and Vedic Astro from India) even tho there is you know religious touch on it. There is a give and take process.

More on, astrology is more signs of what you can do, your potential, and the inner you that needs to be explored and healed as part of your self- and career development. At all, Astrology is real (if you read it in Whole system) since it could be a map, but doesn't give you exact detailed of your future.

[gardenanywhereblog]

Welcome to my blog!

Hello everyone! Welcome to my new space to talk about everything related to gardening. It is such a vast topic and has so many facets like petals on a sunflower. Like permaculture, polyculture, urban farming, backyard farming, organic gardening etc.

I don't know exactly what direction this project is going to go in but the main values I am aiming for is: self-relience, sustainability, and maybe environment/community.

[dojae-huh]

Hello huh nim....how is your weekend?

I am jus here to share my thought on something that really making me curious...I have defined evry neos relationship with do except mark...I mean I dont knw about them and I cant read them... if I write about from sm rookies, right do babysitted him too much and after debut like you said mark kinda ran away from home and dont want dy to babysit him anymore okay....but this mark is very hyped whenever something to do with dy and i even got the feeling that he is very interested in dy in singing speaking caring anything etc (not in a romantic way). But sometimes I do felt like they are awkward too...and now this year they are interacting more and more like real brothers who cares for each other...and their ship is quite popular too..

Aaah....I just give up ...I dont knw anymore what are they really...do they like or little close or true buddies or real brothers or doing these all for the sake of their group or all for content or fan service etc...no...I cant read them....

Mark is the neo who calls Doyoung "mom" the most. "Parent-adopted child" more like.

Mark likes the support and praise, but doesn't want to be mentored or told "I know better". Maybe because he grew up in Canada, he doesn't follow age hierarchy too well. There is a running joke that Mark wants to be a 95-liner (Johnny-Yuta-Tae).

Mark is more childish (boyish) than Haechan in many ways, so, I guess, it still prompts Doyoung to feel the urge to baby him instead of switching to adult-adult relationship (which Mark wants). Doyoung thinks of himself as very grown up (well, he is). He makes friends with 30s and 40s y.o. easily. Of course, he acts as a maknae, but without the ability to share the worldview/topics, bridge the generational gap, it would be difficult. Here is were they are awkward. Do tries to be careful to not have another conflict, Mark poses as an adult, the one who takes care of others (his proclivity to calling everyone "child" and "cute", stroking Do's hair).

MarkDo are close, not as close as 2Dongs, but more than DoWoo. Remember that Do has a soft spot for all neos he saw small. They imprinted on him. I said before that Do chose Jeno, Jae, Tae and Mark as his faves himself. Hyuk chose Do. Mark is a rebellous child, Do wants to keep him nonetheless, so works for it.

When evaluating neos' relationships keep in mind their circumstances. It is better to think of them as relatives who are bound to stick together than as friends. When two people with different characters meet, if they don't click quick, they part, don't become friends. They have no incentive, time and pressure to find a common ground, work around their differences, learn each other's triggers, etc.

Neos can have characters that lead to conflicts or difference of opinions, values, however, their job, their co-habitation, their relience on each other during difficult times makes them bond, develop trust and gratitude/respect/love despite temporal fall outs and other relationship issues.

KunTen is a good example. There was a time Kun left their room to sleep with Hendery to avoid Ten, they argued so strongly. Still, they overcame their differences, and are now close.

Mark wanted to leave SM because he fought with than Donghyuk so much. And now they are like brothers, who maybe don't look on the same things the same way and get irritated with each other, spend more and more of their free time with different neos, but are very understanding and supportive of each other.

Doyoung thought back during trainees days Jaehyun was small (mentally). Imagine the gap he felt with Mark. I think it is easier to adjust to a person growing up when you meet a person from time to time than when that person is constantly by your side and the changes go unnoticed.

The hobbit: An unexpected journey

Its a very good movie, very enojoyable, but the over relience in CGI is outstanding, and its the first time ive watched it since its release, and sure it has a very good CGI but it looks outdated, the LOTR trilogy looks 10 times better.

I found the score to be very weird, in moments of suspense, the music doesnt make it suspensful or in moments of hopefulness, its exactly the same.

Ofc the acting is good and the sets are amazing, the cast is made of great actors, but I still cant fucking remember the names of the fucking dwarves: like the only ones i remember is Thorin (bc he is the king) and Bombur (bc he is fucking obese and OP) but all the names are Milli, stili, pili, Bombur, bofur, like they are so fucking dumb.

And sometimes the sound mixing can be BAD, there are times, that the score can be very loud when someone is talking, and that someone is 90% of the time Bilbo.

[emdeerm]

Honestly, since the little guy is with me now, I'll talk to him, try to provide and be friends. Do my best not to think or act to him as of he is a pet (sorry, tiny size and constant relience on me makes it hard not to). If he can get to his home dimension, I'd let him and help as much as I can. If not, well, I now have a new family member.

Guess who gets adopted now, B?

You find this little beast on your desk. He is two grapes tall. He is yelling at you. What do you do

[theaskscenter]

I think you are very business like with your family too? I think that's for the best. But, How do you learn to even no rely on them for comfort? My family has let me down many times but the world outside without a safe home feels very threatening. They should ideally think a little more for our well being compared to friends and others. How do you build up self regulation and relience without them?

so you will find over the course of your life your friends and family think the LEAST of you and will abuse you the most. You have to be most business like with them because they relax in the knowledge they already have you and what did I teach you?? Familiarity breeds what? (Disrespect. Familiarity breeds disrespect). No one will teach you disrespect the way your people will.

How did I do that uhm I was all alone as a teenager and had to hold myself up it was the consequence of my environment I had no choice. Absolutely yes this IS the method I endorse.

In my last post I detailed the process of my worldbuilding, but this time I want to both use better grammar and -less- spelling errors, as well as go over the actual world in my game. (also plz help me idk what to call it, the dev name is 'guarder' but that doesn't do much for me)

So today I'll go over the 6 main humanoid creature types. on a list we have

Goblins- Good aligned Elves- Law aligned Dorvs- Evil aligned Orks- Chaotic aligned Gnomes- Neutral aligned Humans- they exist

Goblins: The Gobish society is built around comunal needs, to each acording to abillity, to each according to their needs. the reasoning behind this societal structure is partially due to goblins inate need for large comunities physiologically. Before getting into the 4 parragraph anatomy of a goblin mess I've written, we can just say Goblins have 3, technically 4 sexes and a Animated plant creatures that are anteater like and eat mainly bugs and plants. For Goblins to reproduce they do need 1 Goblin of each sex to effectively create another goblin. The birthing sex goblin (Sepal, like a flowers Sepum [the bud]) can birth 4th sex goblins without the help of a female or male partner. These 4th sex goblins are actually just plants that grow into trees wich are functionally sepal sex goblins. Anyways, do to a comunal relience on eachother to preserve the Grove Cities they live in (goblins are small and fragile by nature) they have developed a society built on interpersonal reliance and Comunication, being predisposed to weild plant magics also helps them diplomatically as they are able to very cheaply produce produce. Goblins are Farmers, Diplomats, Protectors, and Lovers

Elves: Elvan society is ruled by a group of ancient undead elves that have payed off their dues to the celestials, now being *technically imortal* these Monarchic Oligarchs rule their nations with Good intentions, However, when you've been alive for more than 3 centuries it starts to become difficult to relate to your everyday subjects, especially when in your eyes keeping them "Living" through resurection is in their best interest. The elves themselves are 4 eyed mandibled insectoid? Hominids with a predisposition for comunal behavior, birthed as Larvae in the thousands, it's only natural for yound Elves to build large cities to protect their offspring. Culturally Elves find meaning in the schollarly works, as their is often no end to their lives, elves find it easiest to spend their time documenting every event in every elvish live, as to try to avoid being stuck in the missery of immortal and unending meloncolly. They are the Earth nation of this world, and being the most vast in numbers and wealth is but inevitable when you can resurect the masses at your whim. Elves are Scholars, Librarians, Soldiers, and Rebels

Orks: I've already written a bunch about Orks so you probably get alot of their culture already. Anyways, Orks have built their society on a Hedonistic Love of warmth, they are an increadably resilient and creative people, finding strength in the arts and magic, and also raiding other people's villages. These big ol' Reptilian Bros honestly just want to party, and while loosely organized into large tribal groups, they really aren't alighned with eachother outside of their shared love of warmth. Being a very broad general "Reptile" species they vary greatly in apearence. Additionally Orks are one of the two Humanoids to not have a direct connection to their extraplanar counterparts, and though they are technically alighned with Demons, they aren't evil, or poorly intentioned. their actions simply serve the Demons more than they serve themselves alot of the time. Orks are Bards, Mages, Priests, and Artists

Dorvs: The final of the aligned Humanoids, Dorves were born from Euna, a Godlike being from another plane who's immense magic corrupts the world and minds with "Oil" honestly I didn't know Phyrexians existed when I designed Euna, and Coincidentally Her story is really really similar to Yawgmoth from MTG. I think they are still very different but yeah :/. anyways, Back to Dorvs, I honestly toko alot of my design of them from MonsterGarden's Dwarf seiries, and the alchemically birthed Old Norse Myth inspired Beetle people was so perfect for what I wanted to do that I just took it. I wish I knew them personally but unfortunately I do not and can't really ask permission to use their design, so... Dorvs are Beetle like people birthed from Euna's corrupting force, while seperate from their original mother, the Dorvs have become stuck in a cycle of devastation that leaves their homes rid of recources and their people starving. they Irrationally beleive that power is the force of morality that rules the world, despite their constant search for it leaving themselves and their famillies poor and helpless while other exploitative few consolidate wealth and power withing their small groups. A practical dictatorship Rules the Dorvs, and their tunnel homes from old mines and drilling projects are the only ways they can afford to live. Creating beutiful immaculate cities on the surface world, while the poor and vulnerable fight for scraps in an underground hellscape of pollution, smog, and violence. Dorvs are Miners, Explorers, Executives, and Servants.

Those "X are X, X, X, and X" notes at the end of the parragraphs are the class types each race commonly is, not like their duty in society. its a gameplay feature for Tribal decks :)

The Final, Final, Humanoids I care to write about are Gnomes. Gnomes are not aligned with any group, being singly focussed on sciences and innovation, Gnomes often don't build or consolidate power between themselves, they just go out in search of Mystic stone to power their homes and lives, tinker with their machanical bodies, and build new gnomes as their children. While Not Purely Mechanical beings like the increadably dissimilat Automata of Autonoctan origin, Gnomes are Nearly fully Metal people of small stature and efficient design, their orgins are known to be Abberant, but they Have lived in this world for as long as any other humanoid. Look Up "Esper Sentinal mtg" and you'll get a pretty good idea of what a Gnome is meant to look like. Gnomes are Inventors, Scientists, Cooks, and Merchants

its hard to be entirely original with your Ideas, even my Orks aren't the first of their kind in Gaming or Fantasy, but Being able to still create unique iterperetations of these clasic Fantasy Peoples and monsters (we'll get to thos later :) Isn't Impossible, Hopefully these 5 Are likeable and fun so yeah enjoy.

also I know at least 5 people saw my last post and didnt get anyone else with it sooo. yall are still it.
