Cultural appropriation (Happy Holidays!)

[Ian H]

Social media post from an old friend of ours.

Happy Easter.
Small explanation to all those who are " atheist " ( I am too), non believers, believers of other faiths and ways of life.
This is a CALCUTTA CELEBRATION. Along with Christmas, Eid, Durga/ Kali puja ( and tons of others), Holi, Rakhi , various New Years etc etc.
Calcuttans live to celebrate and celebrate to live.
It's who we are...

The Eostre bunny visited our camp last night, and left some hard boiled treasures.. 🐰👀

She is risen.!!!

Eggs can help with that sort of a thing 🌈🎂💃

For sure - make the most of every moment .
But not necessarily in a rushing about exhausting yourself kind of a way ..

I don’t know if there’s a special cake but these little fried dough balls called gulgule are a thing



(Recipe at https://www.vegrecipesofindia.com/gulgule-recipe/). They remind me of puff-puffs, a typical West African street food. 😋

Yum.
They remind me of the dough balls that a friend who specialises in Gujarati catering makes, and serves with syrup..

In fact given the provenance, those are probs the very same thing 🤔

I must remember to wish her happy Vaisakhi. 💃

Somebody did a brilliant one of these that I can't find - Suella Braverman as car crashes (I think - could have been Dorries or Truss)

Donald Trump, obviously as cream ......s
