I'm gunna be honest this is exactly what editors want when they say "authentic"
King's books, many of which i have read and enjoyed, are conspicuously absent from Bad Indians Book Club.

In case you were wondering if this was something a lot of us already knew.

For Natives this week;

Let your Native grandma love the holidays she loves, go lecture social media instead.

All my life I've seen the crawling and scuttling just outside the corner of my eye,

But as i get older they are slipping in from the peripheral.

Someone needs to study the phenomenon of fiction unintentionally embracing the exact science of casting the weird sidekick/best friend everyone thirsts for while ignoring the more conventionally (euro standard) attractive main character.

You ever watch a show with absolutely mediocre writing that feels like a toddler created the dialogue but the untalented actors are just having so much fun with their absolute belief they are creating fine art that you can't stop watching this beautiful thing unfold?

The fact that we don't seem to have a journalist that is messy enough to have yet asked Trump or Clinton about the oral sex claim on camera is an indictment of our country and the entire journalistic industry.

I feel like Indigenous people could never (not that we'd want to be in Black Mirror) take part in something like this.

That AI would have Grandma telling our nieces all the weirdest made up fetishy "facts" the Internet and "academia" spreads about us.

I'm curious what you know about the cities of the Americas precontact?

When i think of home, i always think of you. Laughing and telling story and never afraid to tell me when i need to act right even as you smile at my ridiculousness.

My auntie just posted on Facebook that if she can't blame Mamdani for 9-11 why can the whole rez treat her half white son like an asshole for what his ancestors done.

Like auntie, first off Lyle is an asshole.

The thing i find interesting about the church lady that called around is that everyone i see discussing it is adding in their church as the exception.

If Your church is Christian it's probably not the exception.

This isn't a dig it's a fact.

I'm kinda sad, Idaho Jack was supposed to be published July of 2024 and Harmony this year.

Instead they are back on the open market, and I'll likely just self publish. IDK that i have the energy to submission again.

Celebrate Native American Heritage Month with our recs (but don’t tell Adam Piron that we are just confirming his). This week we explore the Criterion Collection’s Native Narratives!

Once again the POS Gorsuch comes swinging in to shock and surprise everyone with how far he's willing to go for tribes.

He wants to remove "plenary power" from Congress and repeal Kagama and the Doctrine of Discovery in QUENTIN VENENO, JR. v. UNITED STATES

This is a wild case for those of us that listened to it, and its impacts could be out there.

"wait you can sue me, that's not cool bro." Appears to be the entirety of their defense.
Lord have mercy the Supreme Court is hearing oral argument rn in an appeal from a case I wrote about last year

it's undisputed that Damon Landor suffered a *brazen* violation of his legal rights, yet the GOP justices sound skeptical that he can actually sue the prison guards who violated his rights
Louisiana prison guards subjected Damon Landor to horrible treatment--none of the judges who heard his case dispute that

Nor do they contest the flagrant illegality of the guards’ abuse

But they're divided on whether Damon—and the courts—can do anything about it

I was today's years old when i discovered the Statue of Liberty is a freed slave and was made to celebrate abolition originally.

Natives are the greatest artists in the world, and when that artistic mind mixes with vanity the most beautiful fashion is born.

Just to clarify to those trying to correct me:

"I couldn't care less" is factual, "i could care less" is snide and dismissive, and the point of the statement is not about facts it's about me being snide and dismissive.
