I was interested in Romani religion too... Check it out.

Most Romani are Christian,[277] but many are Muslims; some retained their ancient faith of Hinduism from their original homeland of India, while others have their own religion and political organization.[278] In parts of Southeast Europe, particularly in Bulgaria, some Roma who are Muslim identify as ethnic Turks, and over generations have adopted the Turkish language.[279] Theravada Buddhism influenced by the Dalit Buddhist movement have become popular in recent times among Hungarian Roma.[71][72] Some Roma practice witchcraft and palmistry.[280]

Elsewhere it states this is because the Romani often chose to convert to the major religion of the area, as many other peoples did.

So glad to hear it gets better. Thank you!

I am in exactly the same place right now. It's really shit. I know it will be better eventually, but to hear someone else say it is very helpful. Best of everything to you. Stay strong.

This is definitely Numberwang!

I know how hard those adjustments can be. Hope it goes well for you!

You have to find Kenneth to answer that question.

Wow, cool! I had never thought about it, but it certainly makes sense you'd need blood in those dishes to get certain things to grow.

Do you not then bake the crust and filling or is it all just done it the fridge? I'd love to have your recipe!

Congratulations on the milestone!

Thank you for the details! I appreciate you adding your knowledge.

Gotcha. Thank you for the explanation. Not sure why we need such coverage in the park, but I'm sure it's great for someone!

Right? That's another reason why I was hoping this was something else. They're so awful looking, but I was going to be cool with them if it was a way to study animals or the environment somehow. Nope. Just more boring dystopian stuff.

Hopefully someone can! Reception was already quite good in the park and there are already a bunch of huge towers in the area, so I was hoping it was something more exotic. They are also just so menacing... You'd think they could disguise them better! Thanks for your response!

 

These are spaced about every 300 meters next to the trail in Memorial Park in Houston, TX, but they aren't only along the trail. They are throughout the park. Does anyone have an idea what they might be? Thanks!
