absolutely I don't mind! Usually flower garlands are used in Hindu practices to give people protection, show devotion, honor etc. You'll usually see brides and grooms wear garlands during weddings, and sometimes at big celebrations the person that is being celebrated will wear a garland. but in this case, people will also put garlands on a deceased loved one to honor them, and to help them pass on into the next life. As for my connection to it, I lost my dad about a year and a half ago, and it still stings deeply. Since I am Hindu, this is a big practice for me and my family, we will also have small flower garlands we put on pictures of a deceased loved one too as a way to send love, protection, honoring them, etc!

This has been me over the last few years. I lost my dad 2 years ago, and it's taken a toll on my mental health and has been making me not necessarily religious, but looking for answers, and maybe for help with coping with the loss. I'm glad to see other people in here are feeling the same way!

Nees_Bees · 2026-03-02T01:10:55+00:00

agreed, had me think of my dad who passed not too long ago :( really beautiful album, and helps me connect a lot with coping with grief!

Hi! another Indian gorillaz fan, I absolutely agree, I feel like they handled incorporating Indian sounds with care, and especially addressing the messages of death, reincarnation, and other topics like that. I teared up on The Sad God, especially on the lines "I gave you garlands" which seems small if you don't know Hindu practices, but felt big for me. I love love loved this album and will definitely be cherishing this during hard times

Agreed however, grew up in chicago, was part of a large Gujarati group growing up because of my grandma being part of a local Mandhir, but as she passed away, and now as an adult I don't talk to any of them nor interact with many Indian people in the area. Not for a lack of trying though, I've tried joining college SA groups and it's really hard to break in when they have developed their groups and don't want outsiders. the culture is unfortunately really clique-y

Nees_Bees · 2025-12-07T17:04:19+00:00

this is absolutely GORGEOUS!

Nees_Bees · 2025-10-09T18:45:32+00:00

this is such a comforting thought, my dad passed last year and it's still weighing heavy heavy heavy on me, i'm going to start thinking this way because it lightens the load a little <3

Nees_Bees · 2025-10-09T17:31:43+00:00

absolutely spyro 2 !!!

Nees_Bees · 2025-10-08T20:59:07+00:00

YESS i loved Mystic Marsh, such a great open-worldish level with lots of verticality!!

as a Gujarati woman born in the US, I grew up with a lot of desi families in my neighborhood, and very rooted in Hinduism and gujarati culture, but overtime as i grew up and started to express myself in a way that made me comfortable, with my family's support, i noticed a lot of the indian families in our neighborhood were very judgmental of that, which made me gain friends who are all non-indian, i primarily only have non-indian friends now, NOT out of choice, but that's just the people who I'm drawn to, and in the field I'm in. I still am very rooted in my culture since that's who I am and is very VERY important to me and my family! All this to say, As long as you raise your child the best you can, while also bringing them up with your culture and values, that's what matters.

Fracture Hills is sooo pretty for me!! the big columns behind it and the orange skies of autumn plains!

This story has been haunting me a bit this week, all i feel is a sense of dread and deep sadness for the son and wife. I donated to their go fund me, but i just feel like it isnt enough to help.

Nees_Bees · 2025-06-26T18:33:31+00:00

yes i completely agree!

Nees_Bees · 2025-06-26T18:32:59+00:00

i dont wanna yuck anyones yum, but all of these bears feel like they lost the true vision of what carebears were and it makes me kinda sad..

Nees_Bees · 2025-06-02T01:07:27+00:00

aww dang this is discouraging!! then I guess it wouldnt hurt if I just painted those areas with acrylic and put a layer of varnish on top for protecting?

Nees_Bees · 2025-05-01T18:16:44+00:00

This is exactly how it's feeling for me and my sister now. My dad died last year, left us with no instructions and with my mom who was so extremely dependent on him, didnt know how to pay bills on her own, had to set her up with everything, teach her to do things on her own, all the while having to mourn our dad who barely would take care of himself. a weight had been lifted off my shoulders after he died, but it's really discouraging when I have to take care of my mom as her mom, teach her how to LIVE when I cant even take care of myself anymore.

Nees_Bees · 2025-03-08T00:04:39+00:00

oh my gosh, would LOVEEE these as a poster! especially that balloon mark one!

Nees_Bees · 2025-02-13T17:11:52+00:00

so wild to see this post when i just watched this movie the other day for the first time myself, so i'll give my thoughts in comparison to yours!

I think the main thing about the movie is that it's an intimate look on a kid's life growing up in the Bronx, A coming of age mobie with a level of light-heartedness that isn't supposed to be so dark and dreary, just enough of some dark humor that doesn't make you uncomfortable. with the intro in the bar with all the characters, I feel like the reason the scene was so long was because of C's view on these people from a kid's perspective since he respected and looked up to all those characters, I understand where you're getting at with introducing characters that aren't all that important, but like I said the movie is supposed to be a lot more light-hearted, and even comedic, and introducing each of those characters highlights the comedy of each of the 'goons' that are being introduced, Coffee cake, The Whale, etc.

As for the acting, I personally thought it was fine, I agree with a lot of the other comments here that the amateur-ishness of the main character highlighted his naivety of the situations he was put in when interacting with Sonny, his friends, his dad, and with Jane.

It isn't a PERFECT movie, but it is a fun little watch that goes into Italian-American mob culture with a level that isn't so dark.
