The USAians manage to offend almost everyone these days. Here's a staggeringly bad piece of journalism about Buddhism in Nepal that somehow manages to be inaccurate, condescending, and hopelessly confused all at the same time. This would fail a first-year university essay.

There have been a few wonderful conjunct holidays this year, like Ramadan and Easter, but tomorrow for us is excellent indeed: Beltane/May Day and Buddha Pūrṇimā.
So here's the moon at dusk, viewed through our glorious ornamental cherry tree.

#Buddhist #fullmoon

The almost full moon, shining between flower-laden branches of a cherry tree. The sky is a cobalt blue dusk; the flowers are pale pink, and the leaves are maroon. There is a house just visible behind the tree, and beyond that an ink-black sea.

I was talking about relatively new pixel art games, like Shredder's Revenge, Marvel's Cosmic Invasion, Arrest of a Stone Buddha... you know if you know, there are lots of them.
I'm not in the loop, so I call them neopixel games, but what's the proper name?
Please and thank you.

It's hard to take an "expert" on Buddha and Buddhism seriously if they don't even pronounce those words right: 🫤
It's "bud'dha"; not "būḍa" or "booda".
I understand if you can't aspirate the "dh" sound but, please stop with the "boo". 😠
