💁🏻♀️ TIL: A recent #study surveyed 448 people across Chinese, Dutch, and Greek cultural groups to map where and why #humans feel ticklish.
More than 95% had experienced or performed tickling, and armpits, feet, abdomen, and sides of the torso were consistently cited as the most ticklish spots across all #cultures. Enjoyment declined with age, and the findings support #Darwin’s idea that less frequently touched areas are more ticklish.

My brother & I would watch #MontyPython on the B&W TV w/rabbit ears, "late night" #PublicTelevision.
What a legacy from Cleese, so many shows and films, such a body of work for him to destroy. He could keep quiet, but no.
The more he claims he is not #racist, but that he judges other #cultures as inferior, the more he boasts about his #racism.
He's said that "London doesn't feel English" any longer, which is a #DogWhistle for #WhiteSupremacists.
#JohnCleese = #Islamophobe

The Clock and The Calendar Didn’t Have to Look Like This
Two of our basic time units are non-negotiable. A day is one rotation of the Earth. A year is one trip around the Sun. Nature hands us these whether we like it or not, no civilisation ever had to invent the day. Everything else - the week, the month, and even the hour, minute, and second - is a human invention layered on top. Nothing in physics requires 24 hours, 60 minutes, or a 7-day cycle. We made all of it up. And the fact that nearly every civilisation independently arrived at something […] -

#Islan Burkas rejection is not a choice against your culture, since the #law that countries develop are not religious, but focused on humans that develop ways of being themself's, like all #cultures of the world do, while this laws ask to every single being to be identified. #Dogs #Cats #Birds etc. All need a identification or official registration to be common to all. How can you verify a #cat that you don't know? only by comparing information. There is no other way!

Les Wendat de Wendake cherchent à retrouver les traces de son passé maraîcher. Accompagnée par des chercheurs d’Agriculture Canada, la nation travaille à ressusciter la culture traditionnelle des trois sœurs : le maïs, le haricot et la courge.

Ça bouge enfin dans la bonne direction. Il est grand temps...]Il y a un an, de violents orages frappaient durement les producteurs d'ail rose de Lautrec, dans le Tarn. La tempête, la grêle avaient partiellement détruit la production. Depuis, les agriculteurs tentent de trouver des solutions naturelles pour protéger leur culture.

Contre la #canicule M. Le Pen et É. Ciotti veulent un «grand plan pour la #climatisation». Cette technologie apporte un confort certain et immédiat aux habitants, aux travailleurs, aux enfants des écoles et des activités extrascolaires... qui peuvent se le payer. Ce grand plan clim serait-il réalisé, les #cultures et les #élevages qui procurent notre #alimentation ne pourront pas tous profiter de la clim 😉. De la même façon, la #flore et la #faune sauvage dont nous dépendons ne peuvent s'adapter

Dear fellow #Indians! Why? What part of your #education, #sanskaar, #culture or #upbringing motivates you to do this? Why such contempt for other cultures? Is this some sort of #conquest #fetish?
People #travel to learn & experience #places, #cultures and #cuisine that aren't our own. You're ruining it for us too.
PS: If you're an Indian who hates this too, please fight this perversion. Or we'll all lose the privilege to experience & enjoy the world one day.

Kargah Buddha is a massive 50-foot standing Buddha carved into a cliff face in Gilgit, dating back to the 4th-7th century. Locals call it "Yshani" or giantess, but it's a treasure trove for archaeologists and history enthusiasts.

Downtown #VictoriaBC will be filled with music, colour and tradition on April 11 as the Victoria #BengaliCulturalSociety hosts its first outdoor celebration of #PohelaBoishakh - the #Bengali #NewYear. The #FreeEvent, set for #CentennialSquare at noon, marks a milestone for the local Bengali community, bringing one of its most recognized #cultural traditions into the public square. For the first time in Victoria, organizers will stage the #MongolShobhajatra -a “parade of well-being” recognized by #UNESCO. The procession will feature large, handcrafted masks and vibrant artistic structures, accompanied by drumming and music symbolizing #peace and #unity.
The parade is expected to begin around 1 p.m. The celebration will also include live Bengali music and dance performances, a food fair showcasing #SouthAsian cuisine, and vendor stalls offering traditional clothing and handmade goods. Organizers say the event is meant to highlight the #diversity of #cultures on #VancouverIsland while offering residents a chance to engage with Bengali traditions.

Knowing the #cultures AND #caring for them is important.
We're all different types of #animals / #characters / #culture / #personalities
And that's frankly the hard work.

#Iranians are PERSIAN not ARABS.
This toot was sponsored by my Iranian Canadian photographer friend - who is tired of people not knowing who #Persians are & ignorant of their ancient, ancestral & cultural histories.Sorry - I forgot to add -> My friend says he has never spoken Arabic but understands some of it from learning from Arabs who were displaced from nearby countries. He told me that Persians speak Farsi. Many are also educated on speaking & reading English.
