Sure, I stopped the generational trauma in my bloodline, but there’s still plenty there to work with, so, you know. Mind yourself.

I got one of those Taste of Home magazines and I’m about to tear into that for some new ideas. I’m tired of the same things. Life is short, and cooking is joy. 🫶🏾

Awww, I’m sorry to hear that. 😢 I vote you get the pizza slice instead, it’s big enough for two. And yes, always hold hands. Happy Anniversary, no matter what. 🫶🏾💖 Love is amazing.

Reason number 3665 why I love working at a Tribal college - food from our gardens. Our Ag department is doing a distribution for our students on campus. This was all raised/canned here.

Senator Bernie Sanders @sanders.senate.gov · 9d

This government shut down is all about whether Republicans will get away with raising health care premiums by 75% for 20 million Americans and throwing 15 million people off their health care.

We can't allow that to happen.

I have approximately zero following on this app, sharing in the hopes it can get in front of the right person. A man I went to college with’s wife was kidnapped by ICE at a green card hearing, and he’s trying to find a reporter who will speak to him about the situation

What's happening with Indigenous health care?

Did you know Indigenous patients would receive more health care money if they were in prison? A new report shows how the U.S. government breaks promises to Indigenous and Alaska Natives. It's not just about money, it's about trust, respect, and survival

I don't know a moment where @indigenia.bsky.social isn't thinking about all of this all at once. Read the research and see what is and what can be.

I tease @indigenia.bsky.social. It's because of how they are. Their importance spreads. Our families, segments, Indigenous Nation and the earth.

The work Dr. Twyla does is from a blueprint made with careful hands from thousands of years ago and it will reach far into every future. I am grateful.

My opinion on Tylenol causing autism is that they should release the Epstein files.

This is precisely the kind of government coercion that the First Amendment was designed to prevent — and media companies need to start standing up rather than capitulating to it.
