Can we take a moment to praise @dandantransient.bsky.social? A lot of Indigenous men talk about caring for their mothers, sisters, daughters, grands & nieces or standing up for MMIP but he actually does it, he puts his energy where his claims are

As I mentioned in this piece, the head of the Joint Chiefs of Staff was who Trump turned to in 2020 when he asked, "Can't you just shoot [the protesters]?"

This administration is executing layoffs and threatening funding cuts that could lead to TCU closures. TCUs are part of the Federal Govt's treaty obligations. Join our phone banking community for more information on how we can push our reps on this issue and others. docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Okay folks, I wrote this series. Book I (The Root and The Seed) is now available in e-book format, and my cut of the proceeds will be going to benefit MMIW/MMIR , helping shelter victims from abusers as well as helping families of victims. greasygrasspress.vip/products/the...

Indigenous Futurism Award winner & Nebula Award nominee Weyodi OldBear donated the copyright to help end the MMIW/MMIP crisis & raise money for Comanche language revitalization @weyodi.bsky.social Please help spread the word about this groundbreaking book (read Shane Hawk's review in the replies)

One of those nights Where you’d rather spend your money on Booze & gas than food & drive the streets slowly & talk Wandering a maze of ideas With a flashlight & a ball of red yarn Until every thought is unknotted & you turn towards home To close the door & collapse together In a torrent of kisses

Nobody's as violently insecure as ppl sitting on someone else's land, pretending it's theirs.

Things I Love About Roadrunners: They have no sexual dimorphism. They are monogamous but they recourt each other every year. They are so territorial it's not uncommon to see one mad dogging a line of cars on a major thoroughfare for 5 minutes and backing up traffic for a mile Beep Beep Indeed.

Hegseth, a White supremacist: "Pete Hegseth, the Army National Guard veteran and Fox News host nominated by Donald Trump to lead the Department of Defense... [has] a tattoo on his bicep that’s associated with white supremacist groups." apnews.com/article/trum...

One small action you can do today, right now: Sign this petition to hold fossil fuel companies accountable for their contributions to California wildfires and environmental disasters through passage of a California Polluter Pay Climate Superfund bill. actionnetwork.org/petitions/ca...

God damn he's releasing bangers

There’s a reason the Billionaires are trying to shove AI into schools and this is that reason:

Elon’s busy schedule today is claiming astronauts were left in the ISS for political reasons, getting corrected by an ISS astronaut, throwing a fit where he calls the astronaut a slur, then complaining that we should deorbit the ISS

84% HUD staff cuts will cause irreversible harm to towns still recovering & trying to rebuild from recent disasters. Trump is giving tax breaks to his rich friends over ensuring HUD can deliver resources to you.   Hear 👏🏾 Me 👏🏾 Clearly 👏🏾    He doesn't care about you!

Democrats: we can't do anything because in order to properly wield power, norms and traditions say first you need to say the magic words in sixteen different languages only spoken by the Senate Parliamentarian Republicans: We just reincarnated Hitler and cloned him just because

To Do List: Last night She dreamed she was on fire Ironing clothes Washing the dog She wanted to stop and put herself out But. She. Just. Could. Not. Let. Go. Had to get those chores done

A political party consisting entirely of cowards.

So, Elon and Donald turned the biggest, most stable long-term employer OF WORKING CLASS PEOPLE,with retirement benefits into an absolute sh**show in under a month? Populism, huh?

I'm really worried about the national parks losing their staff. There are a lot of people who are discouraged to do bad things just because a certain presence is there. Not to mention how many parks are around, in, or partially through rezes... The land and the People don't need this.

Ff’s sake. We’re seeing an attempt to erase and whitewash art and culture in real time. It’s giving “1937 degenerate art” vibes. They know the playbook, but (I’d like to believe, I have to believe) artists know better.
