Everytime I hear Ethiopian music my shoulders move to the rhythm of the music. It all makes sense now viva Amhara

Same thing happens to me as well
And I'm normally not the dancer type

It tastes good, the texture of it is kind of like a potato. Kinda mushy and soft.

They eat maxoog in baadiyo. That’s where I had it, South American’s eat it as well.

I think we all have Ethiopian in us abaayo. Every somali I’ve seen do 23andme have a bit of Ethiopian. Whether it’s 3% or the highest percentage I’ve seen was 16%.

Why are people actually Surprised that they got some Ethiopian, they country is right next door, we been going to war for thousands of years. I would be shocked if they had something like Polynesian but Ethiopian nah.

Maxoog = cassava

Don't try to make it by yourself.

You can get poisoned, there's a special way to do it till poison runs out.

Borrowed from Bantu groups in East Africa hence the name "maxoog" comes from "muhogo".

and it turns out there's some fucked up shit going in your family.

What do you do?

Talk about it with your family

 

[Dalmoor]

Elaborate on the fkd up shit? Is it incest, rape or just finding out your uncle is your biological dad?

I don't trust any of those tests btw
