Bong Eats is one of my fave food channels. New video here about Tibetan thukpa
This podcast about the food and culture of Tibetans in exile in India is also great

Was wondering where the data for #Tibet was in this #China #power #climate update from Greenpeace East Asia
And then I realized to my shock and horror, that they were using the #CCP name, Xizang, in English. This is in line with the recent strong push by the Chinese government to eliminate the use of the term Tibet, in English.
A new, embarrassing low & I have to wonder what @greenpeace thinks of this.
So, where can I watch 『劇場版 再会長江』 ( https://www.saikaichoko.com )

I remember the original #documentary where they featured Cimu. I didn't know they visited her again.
Warning: very touching and teary

Final update: The monks' sand mandala is done. They finished it on Thursday (9/11). It was then disassembled on Friday and the sand taken to a creek near the college to return it to the Earth as is Tibetan tradition.

Another progress update on monks' sand mandala. I expect it to be fully done sometime this evening, at most early morning tomorrow.
They'll then take it apart so sand is deposited in a creek nearby, so it returns to the Earth before they move on.

There is some progress on the monks' sand mandala. This is from this morning. By now, they've gotten further along.

Ein #Gletscherseebruch in #Tibet hat im nepalesischen Rasuwa-Tal eine tödliche #Sturzflut ausgelöst.
Neun Menschen starben, über 20 werden vermisst. Zerstört wurden u. a. drei #Wasserkraftwerke und die wichtige Freundschaftsbrücke.
Ursache war ein sogenannter #GLOF (Glacial Lake Outburst Flood), verstärkt durch den #Klimawandel.

After occupying Tibet for more than 70 years, the Chinese party-state has utterly failed to win the support of the Tibetan people
"Tibetans have clung on to their identity for 75 years now, fighting for it and dying for it."
Y tanto que se reencarnará: se reencarnará dos veces. Una, en el pobre crío que el Gobierno chino diga que es el Dalai Lama, que guiará a su pueblo por la senda de una sociedad estable y plena, indudable, inquebrantablemente china. La otra, en el pobre crío que las autoridades tibetanas exiliadas digan que es el Dalai Lama, que vivirá tolerado por el Gobierno indio, que siempre aprecia meterle el dedo en el ojo a Pekín
Accusé d’«effacer le Tibet», le musée Guimet devra s’expliquer devant la justice
Quatre associations de solidarité avec le #Tibet ont déposé un recours mercredi 2 juillet devant le tribunal administratif pour enjoindre au #MuséeGuimet de réécrire ses cartels sur les œuvres originaires de cette région himalayenne. Elles décrivent une institution de plus en plus poreuse à l’influence chinoise.
