@freemo You're getting it right. But the thing is we don't have any particular culture that is followed uniformly throughout the country. Like the part where I am from (Kolkata), has more similarities with Bangladesh.

Similarly many on the western part has similarities with Pakistan when it comes to the way of living eating etc.

Here we say one thing: "Unity in diversity" (though in current conditions, it has been questioned many times)

@freemo @_lunawinters For most cases it is live with your parents for life! Even on the so called standards of Society it is assumed respectful that you're staying with your parents even after you've started earning!

What I find interesting, is that in India, there isn't a social norm of moving out of parent's house after 18, unlike many other countries.
Maybe because of the large population leading to high rates of housing.
I guess, that's another reason why our Desi parents want us to act like grown-ups but treat us like babies at the same time.

@_lunawinters That's a good observation. I have thought about it a lot too!

And it is also one of the reasons why Parents are so into one's life (which is very good but at times really hinders one's growth as a mature man/woman)

@Saumyakul Shoot! Wish there was something like this in Kolkata! I would have attended for sure. Very amateur poet.

A happy meet up where we approach reading and writing poetry with simplicity. I love facilitating these, especially for those who have an interest but don't know where to start.

This happens next weekend. Connect with me if you decide to come please!

Does #mythology interest you? I try to create a safe space around understanding and revisiting mythology and also break down the potentially misunderstood aspects of it.

This happens tomorrow at 2.30 pm. Please DM/engage with me if you decide to come.

Share if possible.

@freemo @Surasanji I was asking about syncing my Twitter here. But never mind, don't think that works.

BTW I have one Question. How can I make sure that all my tweets are appearing here automatically? Is there any way? @freemo @Surasanji

@freemo "The cheap paneer is very uniform and doesnt soak up any flavor, kinda bland."

Bullseye! Absolutely!

@Ryche
Yeah! You'll come to gasp is pretty soon. The federated timeline is the main USP of this site. Really great!

Wish someone had told me about this long ago. Still better late than never....

@shibaprasad

Awww thanks so much, thats the whole reason we do it! But lets not forget we would be nothing without users, people like you make this place what it is. Without that It would just be me and the other mods sitting around sharing cat memes :)

@Surasanji

@freemo Absolutely!! And the overall quality actually depends a lot on the quality of Paneer. It affects the dish hugely.

Really liking and very much so far!

Huge shoutouts to @freemo and @Surasanji for maintaining this instance! 👏

@freemo Aah! Got it what you are trying to say.

It is really tasty if it is made good.

"God is good" only in the same way that Bob is boob.
