AMERICAN FAMILIES WILL STARVE AND SUFFER WITHOUT SNAP BENEFITS.

A government shutdown should not be able to hurt over 40 million innocent Americans.

Nobody should be forced to skip a meal in the so-called richest country on Earth.

This is class warfare.

Husband quit his job today over management being horrible and racist to other workers. It’s been miserable for a while and he has something lined up but quitting in this current timeline is still a bit scary.

Me, as Burglar Bill, circa 1995:

Me, aged about six, wearing a stripy shirt, a bandit mask and a flat cap, and carrying a swag bag and a torch. There’s a cat too.

me as Luke Skywalker in like...1979?

8-year-old me in khaki pants, tall boots, and a large white blouse belted at the waist, homegrown haircut, with hands on my hips and one foot posted jauntily on a child's rocking chair. I am Luke Skywalker and looking back at this and other costumes of years past (particularly my skater boy outfit senior year of high school) has kind of helped me make some Realizations.

Show us your favorite costume(s) from over the years. This is me as Vincent Van Gogh circa 1998.

I wish so badly I could find my xena warrior princess from a few years prior but I fear all photos of that particular culmination of grandma’s sewing excellence have been lost.

Me as a kid wearing a beret and my grandma’s idea of a painter’s outfit with my ear taped up.

Also the idea that animism is unique to the americas in unspecified “ancient times” bothers me because even though it is clearly not in our mainstream/over culture many native people around the world are still raised with that worldview centered.

Mycelial Ghoul @backwoodsfairy.bsky.social · 3d

“In the Native American tradition…”

okay which one(s)? There is no singular Native American culture.

Plenty of traditions may overlap but I wish we could collectively get out of the habit of referring to native traditions as if indigenous cultures are a monolith.

All times are precedented if you go back far enough and check the other dimensions.

I can’t tell you how much this book enhanced my understanding of American slavery. I strongly recommend it.

I had a little roommate trio in college. We joked that we were lewd rude and crude: guess which one I was

I feel like a kid stuck with a boomer mom shopping for church clothes. The most boring shit in the world. Expensive and hideous.
