I’m an Indigenous advocate now working as an AI ethicist, focused on the Alignment Problem and its intersection with culture. My advocacy work is now primarily in Indigenous data sovereignty.

¡Welcome to Native American Heritage Month, y feliz Día de los Muertos!

This month we acknowledge the sacrifices, past and present, of Native American, Alaskan Native, and Native Hawaiian peoples, and celebrate their inextricable contributions to American life and culture.

Happy Indigenous Peoples Days! Here is something I created for this year that highlights the origins of the day, the states that stand with us, and its current legal status. If you'd like to learn more about our people, find me and my writing at: medium.com/@mater.obscura

Cinco de Mayo is a microcosm of what happens cuando una victoria anti-imperialista gets reduced to imperialist marketing. A holiday born from resistencia y soberanía, hollowed out y rebrandeado as cerveza promos, tequila shots, y fiestas sin contexto. ¡Que lo goces... pero sepas lo que gozas! ;)

Silence is never neutral. It is an offering, a permission slip, a warm bed in which oppression thrives. Evil does not need your support, only your indifference. And when the time comes, when they finally come for you - and they will come for you - your silence will be the loudest thing in the room.

Misogyny is, clearly, skill-based.
