First Heartbreak

A Rensuke Kunigami x Fem! Native! Reader drabble, not really a full on detailed fic. Based off of this post and an angst of Kuni and the reader. Might make a yandere vers. follow up or something. Non Natives can interact, just be respectful of the culture!

Your jaw is tight as you string three more of the same colored beads into the fabric, the thread tightening and securing it into your piece. It feels too quiet for you and you hate it. You hate not hearing the sound of a soccer ball being kicked, the little grunts of him giving it his all and pushing himself to be better, you hate when you pierce your finger with your needle because you miss him kissing it better, but you just mostly hate the fact you miss him at all.

You don't realize you're crying until you feel a tear fall on your thumb and you sigh. You loved this park but you have to get up now, because memories of you and him still lingered there. Moving to Japan in middle school was hard for you, the way everyone stared at your hair. The way you heard them whisper about your jewlery and earrings. The way they made fun of your dialect when you spoke, mocking your accent because they hadn't heard it from any other tourist from other countries. You were alienated for a while until you met Kunigami.

He asked you about your jewelry first. You tried your best to explain to him about the significance it had to your culture, how you used it as a creative outlet and how you felt more in touch with your people with it. Then he asked another question and then another, not trying to be annoying but out of sheer curiosity and intruige. It was the beginning of your beautiful relationship and now you were beginning to experience your first heartbreak.

"Fuck does it even matter now?" You think, your anger consuming your sadness, "Bet he's gotten over it already."

He wasn't the same now. He wasn't the kind and loving Kunigami you knew before, the person who came back from Wildcard was a completely different person. You wished so hard that you could be numb to him, care about him a little less and focus on anything else but you couldn't. Being with Kunigami had been such a dream but it was time to wake up now. You wiped your tears away and tried to keep a straight face. One that had no tears and would get past your family without any prying or teasing, one that you could take off behind the safety of your door and hide under a blanket for a while.

Kunigami laid down on his side, the pillow on his head and the necklace you made for him in his hand. It reminded him of the historical beaded jewelry he'd seen in many displays, yet it was still so different. You had beaded a soccer ball emblem on it, which you apologized since you knew it was basic but he had disagreed. He had never seen anything like it before, no one had ever even made him anything like it before. It was meant for him but it was just so...so you. He still loved the texture, his thumb caressing the beads gently as he imagined what it must've been like for you to get them all arranged into the picture you wanted it. The exposed synthetic buckskin comforted him and broke his heart at the same time. The beading details you had done one the lace that went around his neck was orange, like his hair, combined with colors patterns from your tribe and clan. He put it under his pillow as he felt his eyes get tired...or maybe it was because the tears starting at the corners of his eyes began to bother him a little.

He remembers when things went downhill.

When he became colder to you, he hadn't meant too but you were just such a distraction. After his failure in the Blue Lock and being given a second chance, he couldn't afford another distraction, but he also didn't want to let you go. He didn't want to live with that regret...maybe that's why he acted like that, so you'd push him away instead and he wouldn't feel so bad. He was wrong. It only made him feel worse.

At least he still had a piece of you. Slipping his hand under his pillow, he closes his eyes and lets his thoughts go. He remembers your hand running through his hair and the way you sang to him, your voice moving and shifting in a melodic yet soothing way as you sang vocables. Sometimes you'd sing round songs from pow-wows your people had, other times you'd just sing what you wanted too until you messed up, laughing at yourself when your voice cracked awkwardly and him laughing with you. He'll miss those moments but they'll be back soon.

He promises.

When he becomes the World's Greatest Striker, the first thing he'll do is make it up to you. Try to make you see that he had to act the way he did to accomplish his dream and how he'd be better, not just reverting back to being your old Kunigami but someone better; someone not so niave and easily shaken. He'd be stronger and he'd be better.

And you'd take him back.

Right?

[bunnihearted]

thinking abt that teenage girl that got kidnapped and raped and had videos of it uploaded to pornhub (which they refused to take down). then she was outspokenly anti porn bc of the rampant rape issues it has... men got so mad at her they sent her death and rape threats plus kidnapped her months old KITTEN and brutally killed it and left it on her porch..... but yeahhh women are the emotionally unstable ones.. like... i dont even have words anymore it's just all so insane.

Everyone talks about how if they could hypothetically write Warriors, they could make it better. But nobody ever claims that if they could hypothetically write warriors, they could write it worse. Not as a slight to my writing or saying Erin Hunter is a good writer, I’m saying it’s a genuine challenge to make Warriors worse than it already is. And I don’t mean purposely adding typos or some fanfiction shit, I mean genuinely, realistically write Warriors in a way that is realistic to the Erin Hunter writing style, but so much worse than you’d ever think the series could sink too. I think I could do it, that is my flex.

[shut-up-rabert]

not sure how relevant this is, but im gonna go off anyway coz im in a mood. to the previous anon who said that bjp is being extremist by removing the ABUNDANCE of mughals in textbooks.

you know what would be extremist? if they purposefully blacked out all paragraphs relating to a particular religion or dynasty.

which is what happens if you study in an indian school in some middle eastern countries. we had all (which is already the barest of bare) information related to chhatrapati shivaji maharaj, the cholas, the vedic ages etc. blackened out with thick markers. and if that wasn't enough, if they missed out on blacking something out, they'd make us do it with black or red pens. sounds fucking dystopian doesn't it? that's what extremism is.

removing chapters that glorify the rule of barbarous invaders, that too in the name of avoiding repetition, is not extremism lmao.

Lmao, not even surprised.

The truth is that Indians give too much credit to middle east because of how MBS tackles extremism in his country, which is a frustrating problem here, and UAE because they are “friendly” to other religions, right wing often uses it to put down indian muslims in various issues, but midst all this we forget that these are the same people who give their minorities the bare minimum rights so they will work, who ask immigrant workers to convert, who fund these muslim organisations that throw dirt onto us, fucking attacked Israel in support of a Palestine that wanted all Jews of the region dead.

Their communal bias is not as obvious as Pak or Bangla, because they do not have a cultural crisis ig that’s why, but believe me, their dislike for us even if we are not their priority is there.

As of what you say about Mughals being abundance and how removing them is not extremism, what can I say to that anon other than that with privilege comes ignorance. People really act like Mughal Courts singing and dancing is more important than learning about the Chola expansion, something so crucial to our history that we know nothing about, or even the dynasties of Rajputs, Marathas that played a big role in pre mughal history and mughal resistance.

These Mughals have basically eaten up our textbooks, and there’s supremacists nations out there using it to an advantage by completely deleting our indegenious history given its scarcity, because it won’t affect the current syllabus much.

Blue Lock Boys × Fem! Native! Reader: You Bead Something For Them

Disclaimer: ANOTHER POST FOR ALL MY FELLOW NATIVES, NON-NATIVES ARE ALLOWED TO INTERACT WITH THIS POST AS LONG AS YOU ARE RESPECTFUL OF OUR CULTURE. Again, all Indegenious/Native Tribes are different so I sadly won't be able to represent all of our people but I am gonna try and keep this as general as possible!

Cultural Context: My favorite part of our culture has always been beading and there are two types of beading: looming (where you use a loom essentially) and applique embroidery, where you just bead on designs with a sewing needle and thread! I will be talking about the embroidery one in this post since its one I've seen my tribe do a lot so I hope you all enjoy!♡

Reo Mikage:

- Your beading has always been so impressive to him. Not only is it the patience you have when you do it but also, the way your hand is so steady, and how creative you have to be with the beads in order to get the picture and design you want.

- HE WILL BUY YOU SUPPLIES, TOO. What fabric do you need to put your beads on? What specific brand of beads do you want? Do you want him to have people make you your own custom glass beads??? Just, like, stuff like that.

- He loves it when you walk around, a pair of shoes flashing an old design you did a while ago. Some beads had broken off and went missing a few times so some of the design was gone but he still liked how it looked on you!

- He also loves the texture of your beadwork, looking at a work in progress design you had laying around from a year ago and asking if it was if he could touch it, admiring the craftsmanship even tho you tell him that it still looks a bit sloppy, he loves it all the same and doesn't understand how you can see any flaws in it.

- You have made designs based off of him, too. Using beads colored purple that are his exact eye and hair color. Whether you made it into an earring or necklace for yourself, he doesn't really care, he just LOVES seeing you wear it honestly.

- So one day you decide that you want to bead something for him. Maybe his shoes? Obviously not his soccer ones but shoes that he wears on his days out or something. Maybe a bracelet that he can always wear whenever you aren't allowed in Blue Lock! Or perhaps just do something on his bag?

- Either way, whatever you decide to give him, HE LOVES IT. He is careful with it however, even if you assured him that you sewed the thread and beads together as best as you could to make the design more hardy but he's still very careful with it.

- HE TRIES TO PAY FOR IT AT FIRST. LIKE, HE KNOWS HOW MUCH TIME IT TAKES FOR YOU TO DO THESE THINGS AND HE'D FEEL SO BAD, but you assure him that you don't really want his money (especially after he already got you such expensive and high grade supplies) and that you just wanted to gift this to him because he means so much to you and that you really appreciate him respecting your culture and being so supportive of you that you just want to give him something in return.

- AND HE LOVES IT BECAUSE THERE IS NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT. The design you did was personalized for HIM. The time and attention you spent on this was for HIM. MONEY WILL NEVER BUY HIM ANYTHING THIS SPECIAL. So he will cherish the ABSOLUTE HELL out of your gift.

- He's fiercely protective of it and when he misses you, he just lays and admires it and your handiwork.

Rensuke Kunigami (Pre-Shidou):

- Rensuke is so interested in it, honestly. Like, he'll ask you all the time what designs you're thinking of doing, how you arranged the beads to get them to look like that. Just a whole bunch of questions but he knows you won't get annoyed and will answer all of his questions.

- Doesn't mind sitting in silence as you bead and he's practicing kicking goals into the net. He likes the comfortable silence and sometimes, he'll just smile at you lovingly as you furrow your brows and carefully place different colored beads that join together to create a beautiful pattern.

- He does make sure to check for needles when he's over at your place because last time when he sat on a couch, he accidentally sat on a needle that you placed there so it wouldn't fall or go missing. It didn't hurt that much but, you know, it's a needle. At least you let him know where you place your needles.

- If you ever spill your beads, he will help you pick them up and idk why but its just really cute to imagine him crouching down and helping you pick them and just being REALLY attentive about it. Especially if it was his fault, like he knocked over your plate of beads with a soccer ball or something but POINT IS, HE IS THOROUGH.

- He likes seeing all the bags, shoes, if you have a blue lock id that came with a lanyard (for when you are permitted to visit) then yeah, you're totally beading that too.

- Gets defensive if someone says anything that puts you, your art, or your culture down. Like, you're doing some beadwork and one of the guys just asks why you do something so pointless and Kunigami immediately jumping to your defense.

- "Just because you don't understand it doesn't mean it's pointless. You don't know how much work and time it takes them." and then he proceeds to just casually beat them in the next match he has with them.

- If you ever give him something you beaded as a gift, he will cherish it. I personally think he'd look cool with beaded necklace with a soccerball on it. You're embarrassed because you think it's really generic but he is absolutely stoked about it!

- Obviously he can't wear it in Blue Lock but anywhere else? He'll proudly wear it with you, making sure the bright patterns are visible for everyone to see and running his fingers against it and feeling the texture and smiling to himself about all the long hours you put into making this for him.

- He also knows sometimes you stay up late to make things though or finish up a few things on your beading but he will definetly urge you to go to bed and when you resist, he just carefully takes the needle from you and wraps an arm around you and you're about to protest but you let out a yawn and sigh and begrudgingly admit that he might be right.

Ryusei Shidou:

- Homie has BEEN asking for something from you ever since he learned that you do that. To be honest, he definetly thinks there are some parts of your culture that are cool as fuck but some of them are stereotypes that you might need to correct him about and he's willing to listen.

- But back to the beading thing, he saw how some of your things had various different tribal patterns or just some designs you thought looked cool and he asked where you keep getting that stuff and is fairly impressed when you tell him you made it yourself.

- "YOU SHOULD MAKE SOMETHING FOR ME. Like, a super badass design on my jersey!"/ "Ryu, that design would probably break. I could do a leash though, that'd be more useful."/ "I could work with that~"

- However when you start working on his gift, he soon realizes that the beading process takes A LOT your time. Aka, time that you could've spent with HIM. So he'll whine and ask you to pay attention to him and you have to be there like: "Shidou, YOU ASKED FOR THIS." and he's all: "I KNOW, BUT I'M DYING OVER HERE, BABY!"

- He has knocked over your plate of beads before, let's be honest. He doesn't mean to do it, he's just so easily excited and energetic and a huge fucking menace that its sadly the price the you pay for being in love with him. He'll help you pick them up but he's so fucking annoyed with them too because THEY'RE SO STUPID SMALL, HOW DO YOU DO ANYTHING WITH THEM!?

- Also if he ever hears you go: "Fuck!" and hiss in pain, he knows for a fact you probably poked yourself and he walks over to you and PUTS THE TIP OF YOUR FINGER WHERE YOU POKED YOURSELF IN HIS MOUTH.

- You pulled your hand away the first time and said: "RYU, WHAT THE HELL-" to his excuse was "What? Just kissing it better for you.~" So he just does that and you're going to have to accept that. Might teasingly bite your finger when you remind him you still have to work on his gift.

- When you finally finish with it, HE IS SO OBNOXIOUS IN SHOWING IT OFF. Like, he's talking about how great and talented his s/o is and how they're so cool and if anyone makes fun of it, he is gonna need to be locked up again. IF ANYONE TRIES TO TOUCH IT, HE WILL BE IN PRISON FOR LIFE.

- Tbh he might break it during like a fight or he just was too rough so you do have to make some repairs to it and while you're semi-annoyed, you think its really cute how he gets so upset about it until he starts talking about how he's gonna murder the guy he was scrapping with. If he has to wait because you don't have the right color beads, he will be moody with everyone (except you♡) and he'll be patient for when its ready.

- Ryusei loves seeing you wear the jewlery that you made tho, there's something so mesmerizing about you casually representing your culture that just makes him feel some kind of way. Idk why but he'd def like the dangly beaded earrings you wear, they're just super pretty on you. He can't explain it.

HAPPY CANADIAN THANKSGIVING. a reminder that while we stuff our faces with food, we are on stolen indegenious land, and there are genocides happening all around the world. FREE ALL OCCUPIED PEOPLES

[branded-perceptions]

Most causal issues of humanity

(which are the issues that actually matter to average people the most while if unseen and not understood the suffering and discomfort that springs from that is projected upon social identity trench-wars' ideological clown theatre)

could quite easily be solved if we all would

A) (strive to use linguistic patternn as shared here to mimetically t-ease each other to) become more conscious about the differentiation between mind constructs and objective causal reality

find dialectic systems of geopolitically and regarding identity-groups impartial shared problem-solving

the to us all most crucial causal basic life needs

that are quite similar behind all our storytelled "differences" and preferences of lifestyles:

no matter if you are a modest muslim that doesn't like any western music or a close-minded western republican whiner or a pink hair weirdo cringe hipster or someone of a native indegenious tribe living in the wild:

At the core we all have quite similar basic causal needs and the longing to freely design our own lifestyle with our preferences within the limitation of not overly annoying or restricting other people in their different preferences of lifestyle.

Common Sense is the mentality that almost ALL "diverse" "opposing" groups share at their core if they reflect with themselves.

We all tend to not really care that much how people choose to live their lives as long as it is their own free choice and we are not overly intimated or restricted by it in our own private lives:

basically it is not that bad of an evolvement that certain lifestyles crystalise in certain areas, isn't it?

The requirement is that people would need to be able to move and more freely decide for themselves where they want to live.

And that wouldn't need to be so far away either: A century ago in Palestine / Israel there Israelis and Muslims lived close together often peacefully living all their different lifestyles in symbiosis:

At the Israeli religious celebration days the Jews would give their little children to Muslim families so they could have some adult spare time and during the religious celebration days of Islam the other way around.

Who is Warren?

Hmnn! So many people have heard that name, from me, actually it is me saying so. They have heard people calling me by that name and they have come to wonder who really is Warren. I am just only but a flair.

Warrenmz was born and raised way back in Kenya, Kakamega Town, the country of advanced geniuses who are not only smart but funny, a little bit crazy and funny as an entire country.

Thanks to The Almighty, Kenya is blessed with a lot of flair, culture, wonderful people, wonderful food, amazing tourist sites, architectural buildings that are indeed a joy to watch. I gladly come from Kakamega, that is found on the western side of Kenya, just sorrounded by amazing towns and cities such as Kisumu on the northern side, Eldoret on the southern side, Mumias and Bungoma on its west and Vihiga on the east side. Kakamega is a town in western Kenya lying about 30 km north of the Equator. It is the headquarters of Kakamega County has a population of 1,867,579 (2019 census) has a large tropical forest that is amongst the few ones in Africa. This beautiful forest is home to various mammals including bush pigs, giant forest he, hedgehogs, the colobus monkeys, Debrazzar monkeys, and pottos. Some of the birds to be seen here include the Blue Headed Bee Eater, Black Billed Turaco, Turner’s Eremomela, and Grey Parrots. Bird watching, hiking and rock climbing can be enjoyed here in the serenity of the forest that time forgot The forest is vast and has a lot of variety of snakes, monkeys, chimpanzees and mongoose. It is the leading forest in terms of different species of snakes(300+) The forest has a variety of indegenious trees, and hardwood, has a very cool breeze on its periphery. It is a cool place whenever you feel like you want to go for a picnic.

Kakamega is also known for its prominence in school sporting activities. It has been home to some of the greatest talents in football, hockey, rugby only a few but to mention. It is somewhat the home of champions maybe including me.

Schooling

Warrenmz studies in Kibabii University. I am a completing student just on the verge of bidding bachelors degree Goodbye. I am an Information technology student. I majorly deal with Networks and Cyber Security Issues. I am on the verge of completing some CISCO Network Certificates. All I can say about my current school is that it is a very ideal place to study for any of your degrees. The university is located in Bungoma County along Bungoma-Chwele highway. It offers variety of programs.

The school is a fun place to be as it allows for students to undertake or rather participate in various co curricular activities such as Drama, Sports, Dance and Music. The university comprises of amazing staff who work hard to make sure that the school is running smoothly and fairly. It has a precisely vast pavilion where sporting activities as large as national level take place. The school is furnished with quite amazing students that make the school great by doing quite impressive work in research and science, art and culture, sporting activities and finally music and drama.

Leisure

I am a fun person, that is to say, I do a lot of fun activities, with my free time, from sports, music, art, movies, traveling in, often, dancing and maybe reading sometimes. All these activities got me engaged often traveling with my career and schooling activities. They are often traveling preparing me for my career path and my future life goals. These activities have me get the appropriate rest time whenever I feel overwhelmed by schooling activities. These activities are mostly my personal interests and hobbies and they help me connect with individuals school with similar individuals school career engaged in traveling in, interests.

Movies

Watching movies is a great relaxing experience as it makes you feel chill and among your tiresome week or time rather. I watch a lot of animation movies, anime, action movies and some little bit of comedy. Animation movies are like my favorites as they contain a lot of good morals ,and they can be viewed by all ages of people. Movies such as Luca, the Hotel Transylvania, Raya and the Last Dragon, Zootopia, Moana and so many more are funny, entertaining, educating, and inspiring and they tend to give the viewers hope that if you work hard you will get results.

Action movies contain high graphics, fantasy, technology and a little bit of future prophesy. They are always trying to show what might happen in the nearby future, such as population decrease in many countries, how corruption is tending to kill the economy, and how it will be taken down. Anime movies have that bit of Japanese vibe, often contain quality graphics, are very entertaining, and are found to be the best amongst many people. So many people watch them as they are very eye-catching and contain fantasy vibes. I watch movies depending on the feeling that the day gives me.

Football

As we all know football is every boy's dream, for me it's more than just that. It has become part of my lifestyle. Football is just amazing. Every day it always gets better and better as it is more fun and entertaining when you get to understand basic and such advanced facts about it. it has become part of the largest tournament in the world where the whole world tends to watch the best talents across the globe. It always has the best viewership, and has people paying highly for ads. Football is the most played sport in the world, it is very entertaining and fun to play.

Art and Culture

Art is the heart of life. It portrays how we see life. Culture is our way of life. These two aspects try to show life-inspired ways. I love art as it inspires most of my life. I always try to see the art in almost everything in this life. these is to say that everything ha and an art aspect in it. Culture is what we try to live, show, learn, acquire, culture is life as well. We can live or build our own culture or rather learn from various sources. It is what we eat, dress, and believe and art is more of our imagination in it.

I have much to say but we will get together next time. Thank you and goodbye for now.

[shut-up-rabert]

You won't mention about how the modi government removed a whole chapter about the Gujrat riots and the emergency chapter.You won't mention how they are trying to hide the fact that nathuram godse.

I don't have any problem with who is Muslim,Hindu or Christian. I hate people who have extremist religious beliefs.The modi government is trying to remove everything about Mughal kingdom.ok I know the fact they are glorified alot in our textbooks and we aren't taught about indian kingdom.I believe they should teach us both Abt Mughal and indian kingdom but I don't think so that is possible under the modi government bcuz they have extremist religious beliefs.Forgetting about the mughals won't do anygood bcus even they played important role of what India is today.

Hey, are you some sort of miracle child who skipped the entirety of seventh grade or something? Because this is what those books look like:

The first two chapters cluster all the indigenous empires together and basically breeze through them, the third one is more expanded, and the rest are just various parts of this mega chapter called “Mughal empire”. Nothing in those chapters is discussed indpendently of the Mughals. EVERYTHING these chapters talk about is basically how the *topic touched in the chapter* was under the mughal kings and their policies with a little preface that talked about how things were before.

Take the chapter about devotion for example. You would think that the bhakti movement saints like Goswami Tulsidas, Mirabai, Swami Surdas, Raskhan, Kabir would get their due because of the changes they brought in devotional traditions that we still follow to this day, but NOPE. Nope nope nope. All about how the great secular mughals combined Sufism with Vaishnavism or whatever. All about how muslim traditions intermingled with pre existing Hindu ones but little about how they were shaped.

(And this can be said for the parallel sixth grade chapter aswell. We get the stories of Mahatma Budhha and Lord Mahavira in detail but any reference to the previous 23 tirthankars, including Lord Rishabhnath are missing. And simply forget about any reference of Hinduism other than a few passing references.)

And bhakti chapter is actually the most mellow one of them since it has some indic elements. Every other chapter is basically chanting the Mughal name. And ridiculously enough, despite having six chapters to themselves after a measly 300 year rule, No references to how awful they were to the Hindus and the crimes against us, where millions of us perished, are referred to.

You would think that a dynasty that was being sucked off by the previous education ministers would have all its glory, including the tower of our skulls made by the patriarch, would receive its deserved place in the history but nope :P

No changes whatsoever are being brought to these chapters despite their unnecessary length in glorifying the most trivial things, and their erasure of the Hindu massacres where atleast a hundred million of us were put to death for our infidel indentity.

Only the chapters in higher secondary, where they go in even deeper lengths to glorify even more trivial things are being removed in favour of a chapters that will actually teach about the 5000+ years history of bharatvarsha that existed before the mughals and the invading arab,turkish empires, our indegenious history, our true culture and beliefs that has been rushed in favour of these 500 years.

Oh, and not to mention that the formation of Sikhism, the pinnacle of Rajput empires and the Rise of Marathas happened in the same time. How much did you learn about it?

Yes, Mughals are sadly, a part of our history. But so is the history that us the people of aryavart forged ourselves, when we were self ruling, and that history is ten times as big as “our” mughal history that sits cross legged on the biggest share of recognition in our history textbooks. 10% of our history being cut is unfair, but the fact that 90% of it is already cut to give 10% an even bigger chance to ✨Ѕℋℐℕℰ✨ is fair?

Exactly how much did Mughals do that two out of like 10-12 chapters about their minor rule (where one crucial side of them is being deliberately concealed), that too the ones that were repetative, being cut is a great loss to our knowledge?

You say that Modi government is religious extremist. How so? By doing exactly what everyone wanted? Cutting two unnecessary (and repeptative aswell) chapters in favour of those which will teach us about the larger part of history that is overshadowed by this tiny chunk of half-true history? How is that extremist?

If anything, BJP is actually favouring the leftist narrative by letting the propaganda-esque chapters in seventh grade be as they are, not even trying to bring the monstrosity of the Mughals to light despite the expectations people had. People should be thankful to him, he’s saving face of their beloved Aurangzeb and Shah Jahan and they have the gal to call him a rightwing extremist.

Oh, and while we are at it, might aswell suggest you to go ahead and search what “extreme” right looks like. The current BJP government is not a good example of that, although its lower party members (MLAs, MPs) and sister organisations like VHP and Bajrang Dal are. Compare those to the BJP, and you will see that the centre is anywhere but extreme. Maybe Centre leaning to Moderate about now, but definitely not extremist.

You’d expect such “politically aware” folks who rage out in your dms to know that, but honestly, if you cannot tell this basic difference despite having actual extremists in your country, exactly how much politically knowledgeable are you?

Not enough, because if you were you would see how biased those paragraphs were:

A one sided account of the riots where, even if they were not pointing fingers at Gujrat Government for something they had been acquitted of directly, they did have NHRC report which solely faulted the Government without any true basis. The paras targeted Modi precisely, and accused him of the issue in a manner that seemed to have an ulterior motive.

Who in their right mind would let people read a defamatory para about themselves when they have the power to stop it?

Same with the passage dealing with RSS; other organisations that were banned alongside, including some other religions’ organisations, don’t have a mention anywhere. Only the “Hindu extremists” are mentioned as if their were no other extremists at all (plot twist: there were).

And exactly how does BJP gain from removing emergency? That’s one of the greatest follies of their opponent, if anything they should be propagating it. Tbt, THIS one genuinely seems like an attempt to rationalise because this is a political loss BJP has done to self without any reason.

But you know what? I feel like there were better ways than simply cutting the deleted portions (except Mughals) aswell. Editing those could have helped aswell. So yes, I will go and say that those bits should not have been removed (Or should have been if they truly were repetative? I don’t know, I did not take humanities in +1) but edited.

Hiding history is an injustice to the past, whatever your reasons. So if this is not repetative or otherwise unserving to the syllabus as a whole, or just not fit to be taught with other portions, It should not have been removed, but altered. Yet, I see that currently the editing and rewriting of books is ongoing, so maybe there will be proper replacements in the future? If not, raising questions against that until a proper answer is given will be our own duty

Either ways, that is all from me. If there is anything more you wanna say, my DM is open for it all. Peace.✌🏼

traditionally Italian meringue is a simple Swiss meringue where instead of cold boring plain sugar, hot, 115 degree, not at all a burning hazard, exciting sugar is added. not only does this create the most stable meringue you can possibly make, its suuuper safe to eat right out of the gate. usually one will find these puppies bland, sad, and unsweetened, I however have added Kakadu plum and Eucalyptus strawberry gum to create a delicate little desert

WHAT THE HIFL IS A MERINGUE??????

well well, now that you ask a meringue is, a French confection or candy that is typically produced with sugar and whipped egg whites, with the occasional addition of an acidic element like lemon, vinegar, or cream of tartar. The eggs may also be mixed with a binder, such as gelatine, flour, or salt. The secret to making an excellent meringue is to denaturize the egg white protein ovalbumin through mechanical shear in order to create rigid peaks.

What is a Kakadu plum even?

Kakadu plum is a stone fruit with a green colouration most of the fruit is edible it contains a stewed apple and pear aroma, cooked citrus and a floral-musk note. Taste is sour with some astringency. it can be bought freeze dried, fresh or powdered (i only had access to the powdered form). its currently only wild harvested (so very expensive, hard to acquire and labor intensive) however commercial plantations are currently being investigated

Strawberry gum??

With a flavour described as sweet, aromatic, and like a blend of berry and passionfruit, the dried, crushed leaves of the Strawberry gum are also employed as a complimentary or enhancing spice in bushfood preparation. Only the Gibraltar Range National Park and the neighbouring Timbarra Plateau are home to this eucalyptus. For their crystalline essential oils used in flavouring and perfumery, Strawberry gum plant leaves are distilled. The yield of the 98% methyl cinnamate leaf oil is 2-6% of the weight of the fresh leaf. High anti-oxidant activity can be found in leaf extracts in hexane, methanol, and ethyl acetate solvents.
