ma beamed me up via facetime so I could be with my fam for our homam puja – like every puja ma knew more than the swamy, baba embodied colonial discomfort while wearing socks with lungi (style icon), the kids were running around screaming for two hours, and I had to pee the entire time. modernity is a trip
“So put on your saris
It’s time to celebrate Diwali
Everybody looks so jolly
But it’s not Christmas, it’s Diwali
The goddess of destruction, Kali
Stopped by to celebrate Diwali
Don’t invite any zombies
To our celebration of Diwali
Along came Polly
To have some fun at Diwali
If you’re Indian and you love to party
Have a happy, happy
Happy, happy Diwali!”-Michael Scott" -me
also shoutout to my brown gals for always keeping me feelin warm and loved you’re all diyas in my heart ✨
