So, having learned from past issues with shutdowns and such, the Tribe I work for has a 60 day contingency fund.

#Gerrymandered and fired up? Fight back—run for office, even when the map is rigged. Can’t Win Victory Fund helps “can’tidates” in impossible districts make noise, grow the vote for up-ballot races and push for fair maps—and yes, we make it fun.

Here’s an idea and you want to help people in you area, turn your itty bitty book library 📚 into a tiny food pantry.

Things are going to be hard for families who rely on SNAP benefits in a few days. Someone sent this to Mom.
This could be a small help for those families.
Needless to say, Mom is stopping at the grocery today to get some of these things.

It rained down here in the valleys on Tuesday, which means snow in the mountains this time of year.

It's odd, Indigenous People's Day doesn't register for me because the tribe I work for celebrates themselves on a different day (Wà šiw Day - this year on 9/26)
I do like the idea of reclaiming a day from a colonizer

Today is Indigenous Peoples Day – a time to honor the 11 sovereign Tribal Nations and robust urban Native communities that continue to enrich our state’s cultural landscape, economy, and heritage.
It was a beautiful morning to celebrate on the shore of Bde Maka Ska.

Been on the road, responding to life's craziness. Just got back after midnight Wednesday.
This morning, I called my senator, Catherine Cortez Masto's office and let them know how totally disappointed I am about her voting to keep the government open. Hope other Nevadans do the same.

Pictures of my new Little Gem ready to spin, folded up, in its bag, & (next post) on my shoulder. It's certainly going to be my go-to for travel. If it didn't have a Willie Winder on my Kromski Sonata, another travel wheel, I'd have to let it go. #SpinningWheel #handspinning #Majacraft #FiberTools

The condition of fabrics from pile dwelling and wetland settlements is amazing. This charred ball of thread was found at the site of Marin-Epagnier/Préfargier. It was made of hemp or lime fibres, and dates about 3900 to 3300 BC. The thread measures a total of about 10 m in length.

My #Majacraft #LittleGem came! So cute, a bit of a different spin, but quite lovely. It folds down to nothing, is feather light (especially compared to the Suzie!), and the bag is great. I didn't want to fold it so that twho and tell will have to wait. #SpinningWheel #handspinning #tools #fiberarts
