I only just started this book and I fucking love it. Please read. Thank.
but no srsly, thank you for considering it. It feels like talking to a friend who Knows how fucked up your family is.
You've been away for a while, so you're shielded from the worst of their damaging tantrums, but uncompromising bare facts of the situation still sober you up somehow.
As promised, I'll be posting my revised #SolarPunkSunday lists of Mastodon accounts. This week, I'll be highlighting #Agroecology / #Permaculture / #Gardening / #Rewilding / #Forestry / #FoodSovereignty. List in Alpha order.

@solarpunkpresents
Solarpunk Presents is a podcast that explores the people and projects working on bringing us a better world today. Solarpunk is more than just an idea, more than just an aesthetic. Those inspire us, but where do we go from there? Hosts Ariel Kroon and Christina De La Rocha are producing podcast episodes featuring interviews with people working to make the world a better place right now. Join us to explore #solarpunk in the present.
@SolarpunkPrompts
What is Solarpunk? Why does it matter? In this series we discuss Solarpunk as a movement within art, literature, and activism. We explore its themes and talk about what separates it from its genre peers. Each episode explores a writing prompt set in a Solarpunk aesthetic with examples and inspirations from our world today.

The Baltimore American Indian Center Pow wow was excellent. They did a Smoke Dance which I had never seen before. I put a clip of one below. They also did a Rabbit Couples dance which we hardly ever see at our local. No jingle dance competition this year...not sure why so there wasn't a healing circle but they did do roundhouse circle. And of course the hand drum competition did not disappoint.

Remembering Parihaka
For Taranaki Māori, 5 November 1881 is known as ‘Te Rā o te Pāhua’ or the ‘Day of Plunder’. The invasion of Parihaka — te pāhuatanga — involved 1500 armed constabulary and volunteers led by the Native Affairs Minister, John Bryce. #Aotearoa #Parihaka #Indigenous #Indigedon #IndigenousMastodon #NZ #Māori
"It was an industrious, law-abiding, moral and hospitable community calmly awaiting the approach of the men sent to rob them of everything dear to them".
Samuel Croumbie-Brown's eyewitness account of the invasion of Parihaka on 5 November 1881. #Aotearoa #Parihaka #Indigenous #Indigedon #IndigenousMastodon #NZ #Māori

I went for a 4 km walk today. I had more energy than I did yesterday, thankfully. However, I am starting to have hot flashes again. What gives?
Tomorrow morning, I plan on wearing my orange shirt and joining the #EveryChildMatters walk. I hope my body cooperates. I still want to know why Truth and Reconciliation Day is only a holiday for bankers and politicians. A lot of Indigenous people can't participate because they don't get the day off. Hardly seems reconciliatory, does it?

Today I’m delivering seeds to feed Indigenous communities. Jacobs cattle beans grown by my parents, Kahnawake pole beans grown by me, parsnips and poblano pepper seeds I produced, and potato squash seeds I saved from a local organic gardener. #IndigenousMutualAid #FoodSovereignty #IndigenousFoodSovereignty #IndigenousMastodon #NativeMastodon #Seeds #SeedSaver #gardening #beans #peppers #squash
Today is Red Dress Day, in honour of missing and murdered Indigenous people. In Canada, Indigenous women, girls, and two-spirit people are six times more likely to be murdered than their non-Indigenous counterparts.
“However, nearly four years after the release of the Final Report of the National Inquiry into Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women and Girls, and two years following the release of the National Action Plan, only two of the 231 Calls for Justice have been implemented, while an implementation timeline has yet to be released.”
