Andrew Flenniken PhotographyA friend reached out last week. She'd been feeling the need to get out of the house and was interested in going to the Holi celebration at Seattle Center on Saturday. Would I like to go too?I very much did. I've been going through a rough patch lately, and getting out of the house to attend something lively and colorful felt like a great plan. So I said yes.Holi celebrations happen here every year in mid March, and it's a Hindu celebration of spring, love, forgiveness, and the triumph of good over evil. I was aware of the Redmond event, but hadn't ever made it out, and shouldn't have been surprised that there was another in Seattle Center. There's a whole slate of cultural events there throughout the year, and the few I've managed to get to have always been great.My friend and I met at the Armoury, had the requisite caffeine, catching up, and lunch, and then wandered into the courtyard next door. There was a DJ, loud, lively music, dancing, and color. So much color!I'm glad I went. I think we could all use some celebrating the triumph of good over evil right about now.Cross-posted from my site, where there are additional photos: <a href="https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/25/march-25th-2025-a-colorful-holi-day/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank">https://andrewflenniken.com/2025/03/25/march-25th-2025-a-colorful-holi-day/</a>Gear: Nikon Z 7II, Nikon Z 24-70mm f2.8 S<a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Holi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Holi</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/SeattleCenter" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#SeattleCenter</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/Nikon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nikon</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonCreators" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonCreators</a> <a href="https://social.vivaldi.net/tags/NikonZ7II" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#NikonZ7II</a>

NoahWhile every person on my team who reports to me as their manager is based in the US, none of them were born in the US and none of them are white. They are each the best at what they do and I would be completely screwed if anyone were to tell me that I had to start over and hire an all-white team because of some garbage about them being <a href="https://10base2.dev/tags/DEI" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#DEI</a> hires. Because, and I realize I am repeating myself now, THEY ARE EACH THE BEST AT WHAT THEY DO!Thankfully the company for whom I work sees value in DEI. They were supporters of DEI before it even existed as an acronym spat from the mouths of <a href="https://10base2.dev/tags/republicans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#republicans</a> as if it were a curse. I am white. Very white. Painfully white some might say. I am reflective in sunlight. As I said, they are not. There are no issues on either side, I'm not secretly bemoaning there not being pale people on my team. Years before I joined the company, one of the gents on the team tried to manage the team and quickly realized they did not want that job and they very much wanted to continue being an engineer. So they got a manager and I got an awesome team of engineers who all wanted a manager. So all this garbage about team cohesion and all that, it's just that, it's garbage. I wished my team a happy <a href="https://10base2.dev/tags/holi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#holi</a> this weekend, they wished me a happy <a href="https://10base2.dev/tags/purim" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#purim</a>. I sometimes say good morning in Kannada (since it's the only dialect I know a few words in) and the two folks on the team who speak that dialect get a kick out of it. But beyond all that, we're just a bunch of engineers working on technical issues. I'm a meat shield that keeps them from getting pestered all the time and they do their jobs like the badass team they are. I do plan to move with intent in supporting DEI when I hire and fill the reqs I have open. I believe such initiatives are important, but it's not like it's somehow a heavy lift for me to take this on. I find that teams of individuals who are from different backgrounds are wonderful, the only thing the disrupts team cohesion is hiring a bigot who cares about the skin color of their team mates, not hiring someone who has a different skin color, or a different gender presentation, or who loves someone of the same sex as them, or whatever else Republicans claim they care about today. Sod off and let me build my team the way I want.

aphex twinkseeing a lot of news about attacks on muslim people and mosques around this year's Holi "celebrations." hinduism needs to be razed to the ground. no surprises though, coming from the festival that demonizes lowered castes. of course, no cops are going to lift a finger to file a report against hindu perpetrators. <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Holi" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Holi</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Islamophobia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Islamophobia</a> <a href="https://toot.cat/tags/Caste" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Caste</a>

Flipboard Culture DeskToday, Hindus around the world celebrate Holi, the festival of colors, and nowhere is it more raucous than in India. Kids and grownups filled their water balloons and water guns yesterday, and have packets of colored powder ready to ambush friends, neighbors and strangers.
