Kashubian Girl with a Traditional Instrument: Devil's Fiddle

The “Devil’s Fiddle” (Kashubian: diabelské skrzëpce; Polish: diabelskie skrzypce) is a traditional instrument of the Kashubian people, an Indigenous Lechitic ethnic group of Northern Poland.

Although its name suggests a string instrument, it's neither a fiddle nor a violin. Instead, it consists of a tall wooden staff crowned with a carved demonic head and adorned with ribbons, bells, and other small sound-making elements. A metal plate or spring is typically attached at the base. The player strikes the staff against the ground or shakes it to produce rhythmic sounds, making it primarily a percussion instrument used to accompany dancing and singing.

We have:

- Kinger with Arka Gdynia scarf

- Jax in the traditional dress

- Zooble playing the accordion

- Caine with Kaszubian flag and an embroidered scarf, because I love him

- Bubble teaching the Kaszubian alphabet

- Gangle doing embroidery. Hope it makes her happy

- Ragatha enjoying Soplica

- Pomni on a festyn, in a traditional dress, passing some apples

I have no idea why. I love TADC and I love my Kaszuby. Enjoy

hercekloty: przyspieszone bicie serca (Śląsk)

propaganda: Słowo samo w sobie jest zabawne, a mnie osobiście bawi podwójnie, bo kojarzy mi się z sytuacjami z moim tatą w roli głównej, który kocha to słowo i zawsze jak jest w domu afera (tak zwana haja) i pytam co się dzieje, to mówi “nic, twoja matka ma hercklekoty”. No i jak tu się dalej kłócić! #hercekloty jako rodzimy odpowiednik doki doki

You can be a nation with a history of slavery, colonization, and other shit, but groups that have experienced it will look at you like an enemy because of your complexion… That's fucked up

And what if you write posts about people being imprisoned on the Polish-Belarusian border? (This includes articles from Doctors Without Borders) They won't give a damn

I hate this fake activism with empty and aggressive slogans, literally bitch you live on land stolen from indigenous people, you are part of the fucking problem

White liberals and black liberals are equally irritating, but the cynicism of many black Americans and their ignorance of the indigenous people whose lands they inhabit is so fucking disgusting, and the fact that many of them can be racist but consider themselves "the good guys" tells you how fucked up everything is

You think I don't fucking remember how many black Americans supported fucking Harris who supported genocide and attacked Arabs/Palestinians for saying that woman is evil?

Your fucking dark complexion doesn't change the fact that you're fucking ignorant and racist, stop attacking whites and Asians when you're fucking attacking victims of genocide

I've been trying to bite my tongue, but I'm getting more and more fed up with it. After two years of seeing this shit, I'm tired. This hypocrisy I see here among groups that have experienced similar things to my nation pisses me off so much. Literally, we Slavs can't talk about it because of "White privilege," but you can literally treat the victims of genocide like shit. It's fucking disgusting, but you can see the "Rules are for us, not for you"

Yes, I'm tired, yes, I'm angry, yes, I'm dying inside, and yet I think of others while you only see yourself

You know why I care about Palestine? Because I'm a fucking Kashubian. The Germans also kicked us out of our homes to take them over. All the crimes they suffer are close to my fucking heart

I hate this platform more and more every day, I'm only here for the Palestinians/Sudanese and the fandoms, otherwise I would completely switch to fediverse

Family camping in Kaszuby.
