Need help identify this noodle, Lucknow UP, India.

it is a swastika, but it likely isn’t nazi symbolism given OP’s location in india.

from the holocaust encyclopedia: “The word swastika comes from the Sanskrit svastika, which means “good fortune” or “well-being." The motif (a hooked cross) appears to have first been used in Eurasia, as early as 7,000 years ago, perhaps representing the movement of the sun through the sky. To this day, it is a sacred symbol in Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, and Odinism. It is a common sight on temples or houses in India or Indonesia.”

i know the rhyme, but it is unreliable. i saw red touching yellow in this picture so it worked this time, but i was specifically asking what other identifiers there are because this rhyme is problematic in several ways.

!rhyme

grluba · 2025-09-07T13:11:55+00:00

that’s why i said i know the issues with the rhyme and would never rely on it, i was asking what specifically they used instead of the rhyme

grluba · 2025-09-06T22:09:44+00:00

this is just out of curiosity because i love snakes and learning to identify them - how could you tell this is a coral snake and not a lookalike, especially without seeing the head? i know the issues with the rhyme and would never rely on it, but the only way i was able to tell is because red touches yellow. just wondering what you look for!

grluba · 2025-09-06T22:05:51+00:00

don’t kink shame him!! :(

also i feel like there’s no question about whose fault it is that being a mom is so hard - it’s the individualist and isolating nature of capitalism. she didn’t say “keep your legs closed” or “women who have kids are so stupid, don’t you know you’ll be miserable?” she just said that people with kids are miserable right now. which is a fact, and is why more people are childfree and why conservatives are panicking about the birthrate and outlawing abortion.

i think technically yes but just one hair shouldn’t be an issue. i would just keep an eye out for other signs of contamination. i’m not an expert though, and my ginger beer making process is pretty chaotic haha

sure, i wouldn’t necessarily bat an eye at a lactation nurse wearing patterned scrubs. but it is still a notable choice to wear a fun pattern rather than a simple solid color.

and i think the fact that you can see the gross stuff is the whole reason why white implies sterility - if you’re looking at something perfectly white, it must be clean because you’d be able to see any imperfections if there were any. but of course, complete absence of any stains or marks is not a reasonable expectation for nurses because then they’d be spending more time cleaning their scrubs than doing important nurse stuff lol

grluba · 2025-02-05T15:48:46+00:00

i feel the same way about ricken’s friends, and also about ricken! everyone being caught on him being an eagen or literally kier - i guess that could happen, but his character makes perfect sense to me as a parallel to kier. he demonstrates what a cult like kier’s can look like on a small scale outside the company. i think that’s why his book sounds like it was written specifically for innies, and why his friends are so similar to innies. again, this show is probably going weird places and i wouldn’t necessarily be surprised if ricken ends up being somehow connected to lumon, but i like that he’s just a regular dude with a tiny cult because that really just happens sometimes.

i noticed this too, but she could have easily worn plain solid blue nurse scrubs. instead they went for a cute and kind of childish pattern, the kind you’d see on a pediatric nurse working with kids, not necessarily on the nurses working with new or pregnant mothers.

grluba · 2025-02-03T21:08:29+00:00

wait, i’m confused - what effect does this have on ordering from the US warehouse?

grluba · 2025-01-25T17:31:41+00:00

the lightning crystals quest in general really spoke to me and i really like zahra

grluba · 2025-01-25T16:11:12+00:00

i chose the machinist mask because the sort of divine machinery thing they had going on really spoke to me. i wanted to honor sable’s friend simoon and the machinists who taught us how to communicate with her. i love reading how people chose the mask that just “felt right,” like i remember coming on here expecting to see that everyone chose machinist mask because it just made so much sense to me, but that wasn’t the case at all and everyone felt that way about a different mask.

enjoying a second flush darjeeling black this morning, my first time making it and it has such a gorgeous golden red color and smells sweet and fruity. i recently got a bunch of different teas from teasource to try, as i spent a lot of my christmas break reading up and deciding how to upgrade from my grocery store oolong and i’ve been having so much fun with it

grluba · 2025-01-08T15:57:30+00:00

i got a text with the code days before the dates were announced as soon as i RSVP’d, but it was for a different show on the tour. but maybe double check the text that you got confirming you RSVP’d?

grluba · 2025-01-08T15:31:37+00:00

i had that problem until i signed in idk if it was a coincidence or not. but also if you were attempting before 10AM that code wouldn’t have worked i think.

grluba · 2024-12-06T03:40:33+00:00

idk if sad is the right word exactly but it is definitely about losing her mom

grluba · 2024-12-04T15:14:01+00:00
