May 5 is Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women's Day. A reminder that 84.3 percent of native women have experienced violence. 56.1 percent of native women have experienced sexual violence. And the 3rd leading cause of death for native women is murder.

And they haven't even gathered significant information on native women living in URBAN areas. It could be much higher.

Dwell on this. Wear red.

A+ example of how the media manipulates people for clicks and anger engagement.

I think there’s also a conversation to be had about how people think androgyny is waify and thin and wolf cuts and eyeliner. like some people are butch. some people have crew cuts and body hair and tits to the moon. or beards and hourglass figures.

i feel like everyone is all uncomfortable seeing people who are androgynous in a non tiktok kind of way but thats most of the androgyny i know! i know normal people who arent put together 24/7 who are androgynous in sweat pants and sundresses and first thing in the morning. there is more than one way to be androgynous and it isnt always a choice.

THE CHAFF PROJECT

Hi! Are you cis in the UK and you'd like to support trans rights? Great!

How: buy a trans flag pin and wear it in public.

Why: chaff is an overwhelming amount of false positives so that when a missile gets close to the plane, it hits the chaff and not the plane.

In practice: the goal is to make it DIFFICULT to identify trans people to target with bathroom bans, and to create many FALSE POSITIVES for businesses.

Basically, you might get accused of being trans and kicked out, because of the badge. You say: I wear the badge because trans rights matter.

You follow up with a letter to the business saying you're fucking furious because some nosy dipshit just tried to play fucking genital police with you in the loos. You know lots of trans people (don't name any, if you do) and you wear the pin in support and you're disgusted at them for allowing this.

Blame the business for allowing the behaviour.

Businesses see that their cis customers are getting bothered over a badge and may clarify trans-inclusive policies, so they can kick out the bathroom botherers instead of nice cis allies.

You only need to buy and wear the badge, and you are protecting trans people. You can be genuinely heroic. Even one cis person doing this helps, and everyone you get to join in helps even more.

dear autistics who

white

low support needs

not need 24/7 support

can work independently

can pay taxes

language privileged

intellectual & cognitive privileged

who can fit in societal definition of useful & productive (yes, even if hard)

when fight back against eugenics & ableism, you NEED to fight alongside, fight with, n fight for autistics who

radicalized & POC

from places of world where there critically lack autism knowledge n support

visibly autistic

higher support needs

need 24/7 care

can’t work independently or even work at all

can’t pay taxes

nonverbal, nonspeaking, minimally verbal, without functional communication, or cannot communicate via language at all even AAC

w intellectual disability or cognitive disabilities

who cannot fit into society definition of useful n productive, no matter how hard we try

because we always are & always will be primary target.

because we most vulnerable most marginalized within our, OUR community, which you belong in.

because once they finish us off you won’t be spared.

Have you ever looked at a 24 hour clock and gone "too straight forward!"? Ever looked at a 12 hour clock and thought "what if we divided it again?" WELL FEAR NOT, I am pioneering the 6 hour clock; featuring the classic times we all know and love like 3pm and 7am as well as all new times such as 6aam and 8ppm! The new clock layout that solves nothing and makes everything worse!

Being inclusive to autistics as an autistic is recognising and accepting that we all have conflicting wants or needs.

You may hate bright lights but another autistic may love them.

You may hate being in crowds but another autistic might love that.

You may hate tags on your shirt but another autistic may actually like having tags on their shirt.

You may love bland foods but another autistic may love rich or extreme flavours.

You may love infodumping to people but it may be too overwhelming for another autistic.

A spectrum includes all ends of extremes. And all of it deserves to be accepted and accommodated for.

government people will be like "yeah it was cool before but now in our state we're gonna make it illegal to uncover female breast. or biological male breast that have been altered to look female. it's not against breastfeeding though we still want lots of babies" and TERFs will be like "yay feminism!" and the trans allies will be like "hooray you affirmed trans women's genders by no longer allowing them to continue to be shirtless post transition just like cis women even though they already elected to cover up because it's gender affirming and it's culturally taboo not to! trans rights have all been won except for how dare they include trans women in an anti-woman law boooooo!" and trans guys will be like "what about how they just redefined us as legally female so they're definitely talking about us, and then specifically in response to us uncovering our chests after top surgery, they made this law? and they only included cis women to misgender us further and they only included trans women to uphold the sexist and misogynistic idea that breast that have developed beyond a certain point (like ours were/are), or that don't exist on a body that belongs to a cis male (like us too), are inherently sexual? what about how we're the only significant demographic challenging cis men's monopoly over shirtlessness?" and everyone will be like "shhhhhhhhhhhh it's just a potential implication! clearly the only targets are female (cis or trans), they said so when they called you a female! you're definitely just collateral damage. it's definitely for sure totally not the other way around at all!"

if you can recognize when "male" is a dog whistle, you can figure out when "female" is too. it's the easiest one to figure out, especially when they're side by side.

I really really wish there was a conversation in native spaces about at large and disconnected members and how many times (not always, but MANY times, particularly for Cherokee Nation) they have privileges that many members do not and how just being disconnected does not eliminate that and that there is probably a connection there even with that.

like. I don't think it's that difficult to connect the dots of gaining White privilege by repeatedly marrying into white families and abandoning your culture. you have the right as a descendant to connect to your tribe if that tribe allows for it, but you cannot pretend to be completely disenfranchised just by the fact of being a disconnected and at large member when a good chunk of the time this happens because these families are chasing white privilege. you have to acknowledge what your family has tried to do and how that is affected you today and how you should go about things moving forward.

that doesn't mean you The descendant are chasing white privilege but we have people within our own culture groups that get huffy and pissy because they do not live within territory. we get questions from White disconnected people asking if they can have an elder / first language speaker flown out to their home to live with them and talk Cherokee with their children full time. we get white disconnected members getting pissy because only certain information is allowed in in person circles and we're not going to transmit over the Internet so it can be stolen like everything else.

I understand being light and disconnected and at large as a native American tribal member can be difficult, but it seems like these difficulties are treated as if they completely eclipse all the privileges y'all have

Hey!!

Just a reminder to all reconnecting Indigenous people, you are valid.

You're still Indigenous, even if you are "1/16th indigenous blood"

You're still Indigenous even if you don't "look" Indigenous

You're still Indigenous if you're mixed with black, white, etc.

You're still Indigenous if you tribe doesn't exist anymore

You're still Indigenous if your tribe is lesser known

You're still Indigenous if you don't have a tribe

You are still Indigenous!!

Even if you don't know your ancestors, they know you

Or if you aren't 100% indigenous, that doesn't make your ancestors disappear!

You can still reconnect and participate in your culture!!!

Please don't give up, you can do this ^^

some autistic people will never be able to have a job or live alone, some women that are transvestigated in bathrooms will have a penis, sometimes a trans women will win a sport she is "naturally" gifted in such as being really tall and playing basketball and sometimes the homeless guy panhandling really will just spend that money on cigarettes and scratchers instead of food. they are still human beings that dont deserve to be tormented by the legal system and paranoid freaks

So.

Another 751 unmarked graves were found at a Saskatchewan residential school.

Seven hundred fifty one.

“Why should rich people pay more” because fuck ‘em

“So you are okay for paying more when you have money” I am not excluded from ‘fuck ‘em’ when relevant

if your response to "diagnosed autistics in the US are having HIPPA violated to have their names put on a list by the government" is "so happy i was never diagnosed!"... then you are actually not helping in the slightest.

most of us with diagnoses were diagnosed as children, we didn't get a choice. and now we are getting put on a list, with those who are high support needs facing the most danger from said lists.

rubbing it in our faces that you won't be on said list is hurtful. its not funny. its not cute.

realizing cis women also struggle with “passing” a lot of times and has a lot of the same issues with dysphoria trans women have (issues with putting on/losing weight, dissatisfied with bust size, not feeling “feminine” enough, etc.) has done a lot to combat dysphoria for me, cause it’s like, wow, we really have a lot more in common than we have in difference huh

"women are always like—"

"men are always like—"

Hey, so, I don't know how many of you follow Canadian news, but yesterday, someone drove a car into the crowd at a Filipino cultural festival in Vancouver. I'm sorry that I can't put that more sensitively, but I really don't know how else to describe it. I'm not Filipino, but it happened in the neighborhood I grew up in. I'm not sure how to describe how I feel. I'd walked past the event an hour before with some friends. We'd joked about how the first nice weekend in Vancouver is a special occasion because everyone comes out. There's a vigil on that corner tonight.

The point of this isn't to talk about how I feel. A friend has shared some gofundmes with me and I wanted to post them here. And ask that maybe if you're local and you're able to, could you donate blood? I don't know. I don't have anything I can say. It's not my tragedy but I feel it anyway. If you can donate, I know it would be appreciated by the families.
