Happy Indigenous People's Day!Here's your annual reminder that every nonindigenous person in the US is either an immigrant, descended from immigrants, or descended from enslaved people; Columbus committed genocide; immigration laws are racist; and Columbus couldn't navigate out of a cardboard box.

obviously john roberts and the trump majority aren't going a little thing like "history" or "the written text of the constitution" get in the way of their ideological drive to remake the (republican) presidency as an elected dictatorship.

PRESIDENT TRUMP : "Bibi asked for many weapons, some I'd never heard of...but I sent them whatever he asked....and he used them well, he used them well"

Trump got a standing ovation for that sentence.

When I hear transphobic arguments against helping children with gender dysphoria (eg some kids regret transitioning), I am left wondering why trans gender-affirming care is the only medical therapy held to a standard of 100% success rate. My job is infinitely simpler, and we don’t get close to 100%.

Wishing everyone a beautiful day!
Indigenous Peoples Day is a powerful reminder that the stories, wisdom, and resilience of the first inhabitants of this land deserve recognition, honor, and celebration. It is a time to embrace diversity, heal historical wounds, and forge a future of unity and respect for all cultures. Avery Delaney (Blackfoot)

As a deaf person with a deaf kid, I'm the first to admit IDEA isn't perfect. I fight people's (often willful) misinterpretations of the Least Restrictive Environment every day. Just gave a lecture at BU about how change is needed. Deleting all legal oversight in the middle of the night isn't it.

Now if only we lived in Socialism so this was cheaply available to all.

Instead of being only available to the super rich.

No, goverment officials can be blocked by their constituents, but they cannot block their constituents. All paths of communication have to remain open, including social media.

I've been blocked from a Facebook page run by a county commissioner on which he discusses policy, and I think it's because of my #library advocacy.

It's a badge of honor, of sorts, to be blocked by him, but surely this isn't legal or ethical?

Going to contact @aclu.org of Oregon. Other advice?

It is once again the day where a subset of people petulantly simp for a man who stumbled on a different country than he sought and took more credit than he deserved while being unnecessarily cruel even by his own time’s standards.

Happy Indigenous Peoples’ Day to everyone else.

Have been waiting to share this 🙌

A friend’s son (25) has battled severe Long COVID since 2020 — brain fog, memory loss, and crushing fatigue(sleeping ~3 hrs/day). He tried everything — HBO, LDN, countless supplements — with little effect.

ok confession time

I’ve been in the ICU for most of the last week & I’m struggling so so so hard

the doctor has suggested I
get a dog to help me, but I cannot afford the cost of a hypoallergenic dog, let alone the cost of a service dog

do we think this is even worth the attempt to fundraise? y/n

Yeah, I understand both wanting to go back and not wanting to overdo it and make the recovery take even longer.
