Easter is still over 2 weeks away. Who would have been dying their eggs already when this slop article was released?

New York Times writers desperate to write about something that isn't the latest atrocities committed by Israel? 🤷

I know some schools for example paint the eggs now, so the children/family can gift it to somebody or just so they hang already a while and don't have to be taken down soon already

Like hard boiled eggs? They paint and gift eggs to people to hang up and rot for 3 weeks?
Oh maybe the way you poke little holes in the top and bottom and blow the actual egg out so it's just the shell. That would make more sense.

Yeah the second method. Of course the children are not going to make master pieces that are kept for multiple years, but it's still a nice gift for grandparents etc. In central and eastern Europe, there are some longstanding traditions with that method of egg painting. And some are really great pieces of art.

People use real eggs? We just use the plastic eggs and fill them with candy

Next week: Potatoes prices rise dramatically due to sudden influx of potato purchases.

Sounds like something Zoya The Destroya (from GLOW) would say:
In Soviet Union Easter Eggs are so expensive…

Definitely! I miss that show..

Bro, I know times are tough but what’s up with cross posting from hexbear?

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 17 points 3 days ago

Good content is good content?

[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.dbzer0.com 10 points 2 days ago

Sometimes I sort "all" and as the other reply said, good content is good content even if it's from tankie troll central 🤷
