And we didn't need permission to marry our partners pre-colonization. We didn't need a law to be whole, some of our tribes had 13 genders before the unwashed arrived on our shores. At no point has this country ever been cool. It has always been a genocidal eugenics factory. Why don't you know that?

The 60s: US government sought to terminate tribal sovereignty, the medical community sterilizing Black & Indigenous women without consent, boarding schools still active, churches kidnapping our children & adopting them to white families—breadcrumbs may fill you up but my point remains.

Oakland folks: Having dinner with friends from out of town on Saturday, any recommendations for 5-6 people that might still take a reservation or not need one? We're going to Wahpepah's Kitchen tonight. And I think we're all foodies, but we're also rez, so basically we fuck with everything🧃

I accidentally fumbled a lot of vanilla extract into my cream of wheat this morning and decided to just go with it. It was like a Metamucil cocktail, kinda do recommend.

I have a teeny bit of trickster energy so maybe I’m a coyote paladin 🤔

Can paladins be a tiny bit evil or do they have to always be good?

I already picked my character, I'm Sayra the Paladin. I'm not sure what a paladin is but I will know by Wednesday for sure. I have a heart on my shield and I'm a short queen, that's all I know so far.

I got my freshly 12 yo godson a Stranger Things dungeons & dragons game for his birthday and friends he is reading. the. instructions. locked in. We'll be operational nerds by the time it starts raining this week I'm so excited. 🤘

the winter solstice is just a made-up holiday to sell more henges.

I don’t think I’ve ever told anybody else but I found AC Odyssey during a very rotten depression & it lifted my heart so much that I’ve leaned in and now I make time to wander through my favorite games like I’m self-care strolling for my life lol

Swanton Berry Farm is a organic UFW contract company in Davenport CA, in Santa Cruz County. "Angela" worker who labors there invites UFW supporters in the area to try their holiday pies, saying we have apple, pecan, blackberry and strawberry rhubarb pies. #WeFeedYou

Anyway I am so proud for these students, they are doing the most while getting the least amount of funding & support. Funders, divest from western academia & the anemic work they're doing, invest in the development of Indigenous knowledges because those building blocks will shelter us all.
December 10, 2025 at 12:07 AM
And our students are willing to do all of this work on the same campus where non-Native department heads & professors are intellectually holding everyone back because they're too stodgy, lazy & fragile to sit with hard questions that might lead to changing the way they do science.

When the final project looks almost nothing like the original proposal, seeing how the journey evolved with the input of local Indigenous people—it is a marvel of community science, a multi-disciplinary intersectional building block complete with data sovereignty & generational engagement.

Western academia won't engage with tribes, they can't fathom de-centering themselves & have low thresholds for discomfort, they rely on their colonial entitlement to space & funding. Our students learn to sit with discomfort & embrace any changes needed for community repair to steer the science.

How do people in academia hold it together when the grad students you advise present their thesis because I am so emotional. I don't think anybody knows how powerful & brilliant Indigenous students are, their work is unlike anything western academia has ever produced.

Bluesky made me verify my age & wouldn't let me put a 1 in the year field, it kept flashing back to 0. Anyway, according to this app I was born in 0977. My grandma's computers at her work had big flashing green digits on computers shaped like space eggs & they never fucked up a date in their lives.

the core idea that can radicalize people is so simple:

there is enough.

there is enough food to feed everyone. enough resources to house everyone. money and technology and medicine to stop the suffering of people around the globe.

once you accept that there's only one question:

why don't we?
