Uk, I have been severely depressed since the last few years, especially 2023, but when I say I was beyond the moon to see SRK on screen, I realllllly mean it. I loved seeing him on screen, he made me so fucking happy. Today, watching him win the Cnn 'INDIAN OF THE YEAR' award, genuinely made me so proud of him and made me feel like even I can make it someday. I loved his speech. You could feel his sincerity, and I completely agree with him when he says that he wants to keep the award with himself. Yes, Shah Rukh, you deserve it. 👏 Shah Rukh's wins are always so personal. And YES, HE WILL ALWAYS BE THE INDIAN OF ALL AGES!!! *alexa play Jawan title track*

Icon star Allu Arjun's career is like 'Pushpaki before Pushpaki later'. His craze, which was earlier limited to South, spread pan India wide with 'Pushpa'. For some time now, everywhere you look, it seems like 'Taggedele' is a bunny mania. And recently he received the 'Indian of the Year' award and showed his strength.

Bunny won the 'Indian of the Year' award in the entertainment category for 2022. He received the award at the hands of Union Minister Smriti Irani at a ceremony held on Wednesday evening. Bunny is the first actor from South to receive this award. Bunny announced that this award is being dedicated to the Covid Warriors. For more information visit Teluguone.com official website

It's kinda shocking to me how few people seem to know how prevalent the 'my great grandmother was cherokee' myth is and how it's almost never actually true, especially when it comes with things like 'never signed up' or 'fell off the trail' or 'courthouse burned down destorying the documentation' etc etc.

People just don't even seem to know the history like.. when the Trail happened. My great great great grandfather was 2 years old during Removal in 1838, so peoples 'my great grandmother hid in the mountains!' is so clearly wrong. And we have rolls. From before and after removal, rolls done by cherokee nation and others by the government, rolls that were not stored in one random flammable courthouse. It's not difficult to find the actual evidence of ancestry.

And just.. there are lots of ways those family stories get started. It was a practice during the confederacy to claim cherokee ancestry to show one's family had 'deep roots in the south' that they were there before the cherokee were removed. Many people pretended to be cherokee and applied for the Guion-Miller payout just to try to steal money meant for cherokees - 2/3rds of the applicants were denied for having 0 proof of actual cherokee ancestry. [We even see lawyers advertising signing up for the Miller roll just to try to get free money.] And the myth even started in some families in the cherokee land lotteries, where the land stolen from us was raffled off, including the house and everything that was left behind when the cherokees were removed. We have seen people whose families just take these things stolen from the cherokee family and adopt them into their own family story, saying that they were cherokee themselves.

If you had some family story about being cherokee and you wanna have proof one way or the other, check out this Facebook group run by expert cherokee genealogists that do research for free. Just please read the rules fully and respect the researchers. They run thousands of people's ancestries a year and their average is only around 0.7% of lines they run actually end up having true cherokee ancestry.

#and ive heard even dumber origins of the cherokee family myth #such as an ancestor having a silly sounding name so the descendents just go 'oh she mustve been an indian!!!'#i was one of the few people who had my ancestry done on the facebook and had genuine cherokee ancestry #[though i had found it before it was just really validating to get it double checked and i started finding cousins (:]#like. i was told once when i was a kid by my grandma that my dad had cherokee ancestry and i didnt believe her. its wild that so many peopl #will make it a Fixture of their identity [or even just smth they bring up ever] with Zero proof #at least for cherokees from what ive seen its usually considered really disrespectful to claim to have cherokee ancestry without #actually having the documentation [like ancestors on the rolls]#and no a dna test doesnt count. nor does 'my dad is Clearly not white!' or 'high cheekbones' or old family photos or anything #i had this discussion with someone recently whose dad had been calling himself 3/4 native but didnt know exactly what nation ???? hello?#and its like... sorry but ur dad is like. italian lol.#[and blood quantum is bullshit anyway im tired of the 'im 1/16 cherokee' comments its dumb #cherokee nation does not have a blood quantum requirement. its pointless bringing it up in the discussion of who is or isnt cherokee]#also mandatory disclaimer that im reconnecting. i didnt grow up connected to the culture of even knowing my ancestry #this is all from my looking into this stuff over the past year or so. i cant claim to be an authority over anything regarding this #this is p much all my repeating things ive heard said by people who know a lot more than i do haha #man. and this isnt even starting to get into the fake tribe stuff. the only legit cherokee groups are the 3 federally recognized bands #cherokee nation of oklahoma. united keetoowah band. and the eastern band of cherokee indians.#any others that are state recognized or not at all arent acknowledged as legitimate by any of the legit cherokee groups #anyway. my final message goodb.ye #cherokee #tsalagi

Status report, Shopping Trip dep’t

Up to the local town for early (routine) blood work. Then to the town’s shops to get some food and other supplies in.

Now in our local, holding “frank and open” lunchtime discussions about the details and logistics of a steak pie recipe in The Door Into Fire. (How the HELL did he just sort of intuit the black beer? FFS.)

…Seriously, I love this man. 😄

#no it is NOT Guinness #it’s a black lager #Schlenkerla makes one in our version of Earth #meanwhile #okay shin beef #(I always used to use sirloin)#(but then he wore me down over twenty years till I started to like Indian food)#time to get started arguing about which chilies go in this

Wukong and Xiaotian in the Celestial Realm for their trial✨

I saw some people talking about Wukong getting in trouble for the shit that went down in season 3 and having to attend a trial with the Jade Emperor in season 4, which got me thinkin👁️👁️In the show, Wukong would ~technically~ be a Bodhisattva and would totally dress up to be petty and poor Xiaotian wouldn’t have anything fancy💀

Also Wukong coming to pick up MK covered in gold and MK’s there with his hand-me-down Hanfu he stole from Tang, now suddenly questioning every fashion choice he��s ever made

Design and Buddhism Notes below the cut:

(People who read my info dump: it’s all the same stuff just on top of sketches)

#I would like to see SOMEONE from the celestial realm in s4 PLS #I also went with a more Indian inspired look since the pilgrims were enlightened in India #I be talkin about Buddhism in the last couple days than I have in the past year💀#you can pry Wukong and Xiaotians shifu tudi relationship from my cold dead hands #ALSO WUKONGS TECHNICALLY A BODHISATTVA IN LMK #JUST TO BE CLEAR #jttw #lego monkie kid #my art #lmk sun wukong #qi xiaotian #monkie kid

The costume designer really went off script for the Regency silhouette this season and idk if I like it

Of course it's one thing to play with modern fabrics and embellishments, it's the fantasy of it, but the silhouette is what anchored the show in the fantasy regency era. From what we've seen so far, the waistlines are a lot lower on women's dresses, there are a lot of interesting things being done with sleeves and gloves, and the makeup is so heavy. It no longer feels like they are playing with the silhouette, they've changed it completely and it might be too much?

#polin #bridgerton #idk just some stuff i've noticed #everyone is beautiful but it feels very different from the previous seasons #and i'm not even talking about kates dress in the new clip #they're clearly going with a more indian look for her which i love #but on Pen's and Frannie's dresses the waistlines are kind of low and not right under the bustline like they are meant to be #waistlines don't drop for another 10 years historically

you know what else made me insane about the "nobody protects nature better than you, sweet amy" scene? in the hindi dub, sonic refers to her as "प्यारी एमी (pyaari amy)" which roughly translates to "cutie/sweet". means the same thing kinda but it made me insane to hear it in my language djzlpakfjalslsj

#the hindi dub made sonic sound like a 40 year old man but this is the one thing they got right #thanks for feeding your local indian sonamy fan sega #sonic the hedgehog #sonic prime #sonic prime spoilers #amy rose #sonamy #rebecca talks
