Get fkin blocked for being such an asshole

TW: direct quotes from Winston Churchill

“I hate indians, they are a beastly people with a beastly religion”

When asked about sending food to help with the famine, he said it’d do no good because they “breed like rabbits”

The man was a monster, plain and simple. May he rest in hell, same as Hitler.

Ah yes the comic that deprogrammed me on anarchism

Common misunderstanding - her full name is “Jessica McCarty Et Al”

That’s true, but it still works imo

Holy hell

Omg it never even occured to me that the Bengali flag looks kinda like the Japanese flag

TIL all events are instantaneous

Here’s a recipe for Bengali rice pudding, like my spouse’s family makes, if you’re interested in trying it. If you can’t get your hands on the particular rice for it she says calrose works (or, failing that, sushi rice).

You’ll want to run it through a translator since the recipe is in Bengali but that’s how you know it’s legit

Well, it’s your preference…

Oh interesting! We usually substitute basmati for jasmine rice bc we like the flavor better. Unless ofc it’s a dessert of some kind.

True, probably why chopsticks never got popular in Bharat. But ofc there’s always the desi way of eating - your hands 😁

Calrose is better than jasmine but it’s no basmati

Ummmm, haven’t you heard of this thing called “time”?

That’s what makes it dank

Omg I’m so sorry 🫂

Curious, if you have basmati rice available, what are you using the jasmine rice for?

Please tell me you cook the brown rice on its own first before adding the white rice in order to compensate for the difference in cooking time 🙏🏾

Funny you say this because I didn’t learn about the distinction between types of rice until I married a desi person. My father-in-law has said before “if I haven’t eaten rice, I haven’t eaten”.

If a white person makes Bengali rice pudding with basmati rice, the ghost of a Bengali will possess their toaster and burn all their bread in retribution.
