Happy Int'l Hot and Spicy Food Day

International Hot and Spicy Food Day

Is "American Chinese food" Chinese food?

• VIDEO: Vui's Kitchen on Hot and Spicy Food Day 2026

Favorite: green curry over rice

There is a world of Buddhist vegetarian cuisine. What is so good about vegan and vegetarian Thai and Indian foods, Chinese and Korean? Curry? No, it's that they are spicy and flavorful. But even Chinese food has a hot source call Szechuan. Mexican food (like sauteed fajitas) is the most popular cuisine in the USA. Why? It might have something to do with the spicy, freshness, crispy crunch, and health benefits -- greens, chiles, lemon, peppers, beans, and whole grains (at least in the original indigenous form). Many Buddhist countries, which are renowned for their calm, cool, and collectedness -- sure do offer a lot of spice. It is the characteristic of hot place, particularly tropical ones like Theravada Sri Lanka.

Yoga is for white people (Zarna Garg)

Bikram ran scam called Bikram Yoga

Zarna Garg (born Feb. 15, 1975) [1] is an Indian American stand-up comedian and screenwriter. CNBC says she is "the zany, outspoken voice of the Indian American woman" [2]. She is also a New York Times bestselling author.

• ZG is a "Desi" (a member of the Indian diaspora) comedian at Zarna Garg.com. Desi a loose term used to describe the peoples, cultures, and products of the Indian subcontinent and their diaspora [4], deriving from the Sanskrit देश (deśá), meaning "land" or "country" [5].

Early life and education

Watch Zarna Garg: Practical People Win Streaming Online | Hulu

Born in India, she lived in Mumbai (Bombay) as a teenager. Her Indian father demanded that she get married the day after her mother died, which was when she was 14.

Why are we Americans overachievers?

Rather than submit to an arranged marriage, she moved out of the house and stayed with friends and family [4]. Eventually, she emigrated to the USA to live with her sister in Akron, Ohio [2][5].

She earned a BA degree in finance from the University of Akron and a JD (Juris Doctor) degree from the Case Western Reserve University School of Law in Cleveland, Ohio [6].

After being a stay-at-home mother for 16 years, she was encouraged by her children to try stand-up comedy [7], so we have them to thank. More

A.I. actress sparks backlash and controversy

Tilly Norwood is the new IT girl, and by "IT" we of course mean "information technology."

She is less a robot and more a fictional character generated by A.I., less a hologram and more of a figment of some pervert's imagination made of pixels and dollar signs.

I'm so hot and don't even drink coffee

Hollywood moguls rejoice. Actors mourn. Now there is no need for paid "intimacy coordinators" forced on the film industry by do-gooders and nosy Nancys, no more aging actress with short shelf lives. This solves everything in Elon Musk's coming utopia.

Wiki: An announcement at the Sept. 2025 Zurich Film Festival (ZFF) that Tilly was about to be signed by a talent agency attracted strong criticism from Hollywood actors and firms, prompted allegations of personality rights violations, and led to arguments over the impact of the character on production costs in the media industry. Oh, that's our Tilly! More

Chicago, ILLINOIS. On March 16, 2025, Downers Grove police pulled over a vehicle. This wasn’t a routine stop. They were targeting the driver, 30-year-old Christina Formella, a special education teacher and soccer coach at Downers Grove South High School.

The felony allegations (when she was 28 and the boy was 15) surfaced when the boy's mother discovered disturbing text (sexting) messages on her son’s new iPhone.

  Hot victim, the boytoy jock?* (Alamy)

  When Christina Formella, a Downers Grove teacher and coach, was charged with sexual assault of a student, her story "splintered" across the internet. The flood of TikTok and tabloid coverage of Formella’s felony case has fractured into a thousand different story lines and angles, breaking the image of one woman into discrete villainous archetypes: the predatory teacher, the ungrateful cheater wife, the high school mean girl, the evil athlete, a perversion of Christian schooling. With each new rendering, viewers, readers, and TikTok users can be shocked and outraged and titillated again. Formella’s case: Instagram

Dalai Lama on Trump, hot girl rebirth

Dalai Lama shares controversial views on hot women and talks about 'immoral' Trump

Are you hot enough to be the next Dalai Lama? (Sam Littlefair | Medium.com)

(SBS News) SBS is an Australian public broadcast service. In a rare interview with the 14th Dalai Lama, he shares his views on world politics and his thoughts on having a female successor, which would be him returning, as the lore of the dalai lama system is that it is the successive reincarnations of the Goddess of Compassion Chenrézik (Guanyin), which is a metamorphosis of the male deva Avalokiteśvara. #SpecialBroadcastingService sbs.com.au/news #SBSnewsAU

Seven things I hate about being hot

Katty Purry: I'm the hottest, sexiest, most charming popstar there will ever be!

I'll let my body do my talking for me, and I don't need to claim anything (Emy/unsplash.com).

Old, rich, and hot? It's a dream come true

(Christine Stevens) I know, it sounds pretty lame, this title. But just today someone wrote an article:

“Hot people complain about the ‘horrible experience’ of being good-looking” is the title of this article written by Alex Mitchell, who is a guy -- not exactly a hot guy either. I don’t mean to be judgy, but go ahead, look him up.

He probably really hates hot women because they have failed to respond to his particular brand of erudition, working for this great newspaper called The New York Post. Yeah, it’s pro-Trump.

That was his subtitle, not mine: “What a pity to be pretty.”

And even though he called his article “Hot people,” the entirety of the article focuses on, surprise-surprise, hot women.

Did the Buddha by any chance teach people how to become more beautiful? - Yes. Karma.

Yesterday's "hot" is "meh" today, and they don't even have that! It's gone, so it's on to the next...

.

Yoga is the way to health and hotness

He doesn’t get into how hard it is to be a hot guy — because maybe it’s not that hard. I don’t know.

So here are the things Alex Mitchell, dripping with resentment, writes about “pitiful” hot women and their travails:

— People assume they are dumb because they are hot.

Shush. Maybe it's all in the eye of the beholder.

— Married women think hot women are after their husbands. (Really? I had no idea that was a thing -- mate poaching?) More:

I'm a gay man, a transsexual, and Mrs. Obama

Michael "Michelle" Obama was born a man, and Joan Rivers got disappeared for saying so out loud even though people in Washington and Hollywood knew it. They were just smart enough not to say so, as this would make Pres. B.S. Obama the first homosexual to hold the office, which it would almost certainly not. But just as France had a prime minister married to a man named Michel, so we in the U.S. had it to.

Bernie: "You're ugly, boo!" - DJ: "Why you! I'm gonna kick your old a...off this stage!"

Kamala Devi as a Black kid

Thank you, CIA, which makes all things possible. After Mike's amazing oratory at the DNC, the New York Times thought it was a good idea to post an article all about what s/he was wearing, a weird outfit to mask Mike's massive shoulders and height, emphasizing his long wig and big teeth, guiding casual viewers away from the obvious and in-your-face fact that one is looking at a man in a man's body pretending to be demure, diminutive, and even girly. Hormone treatments are amazing on the human body, showing how flexible our phenotypical features can become regardless of our genotype. But why would the NYT be sexist and insensitive with so powerful a person? Why promote gender stereotypes. His/her speech was the amazing thing, now what s/he wore when reading it.

• Yes, but what does Kamala Devi look like without makeup?
• Aargh, Trump without makeup, orange coloring and wig? Yikes!
