Fruities Team🍉 @fruitiesteam.bsky.social · 1d

On this Indigenous Peoples Day, Fruities would like to share about the indigenous concept of "two-spirit" and highlight indigenous members of our team! Today is a great day to support indigenous business, read stories from indigenous people, and engage with indigenous content creators.

Information poster with text:
Honoring Indigenous Peoples' Day
Indigenous Peoples' Day is a holiday in the United States that celebrates and honors Indigenous people and commemorates their histories and cultures.
Indigenous people and LGBTQ+ history
Historically, LGBTQ+ Native Americans used terms for gender-related social roles unique to their specific tribe and tribal language. For many tribes, people were historically defined more by their roles in relation to their partner and their tribe, and viewing people as simply male or female was an idea first introduced by colonists.
Two-spirit is an English term that emerged in 1990 to describe Indigenous North Americans who fulfill one of many mixed gender roles found traditionally among indgenous groups. Male and female Two-Spirits have been documented in over 130 tribes, in every region of North America.
Two-Spirits have had distinct gender and social roles in their tribes.
They could have been:
Healers
Special role players in sundance or other ceremonies
Medicine persons
Convyers of oral traiditions
Name givers
Caregivers for orphaned children

It's World Mental Health Day and it's important you're reminded we are glad you're here.
It's ok our brains don't run on default settings.
It's ok if you're struggling as long as you're still here with us.
If you feel alone, reach out to help or connect with another person.
We've got this. Together.

The media still paints mental health as either “beautifully broken” or “dangerously unstable.” Both are wrong—and harmful. This #WorldMentalHealthDay, let’s demand better representation and lead with empathy. 🩵 🧡

Happy World Mental Health Day 💚

While our team is focused on neurodiversity, many of our members regularly share their experiences with mental health and mental illness. Promoting awareness and advocacy against stigmas is something we support every day of the year.

How are you celebrating today?

Oof! Yeah, of course! I'm glad it was resolved at last. Fiery has had that happen on a dogsitting job before too, it's never fun dealing with that type of thing on any type of job 😵‍💫

That sucks! I hope that got resolved in a way that was ok for all parties and that it wasn't an issue for too long

We could never get sick of you! Sorry that everything's been feeling that way and that the last couple months of been ruthless!

Though we've been hearing that from a lot of people lately, that they've been feeling those ways or that the last month or two have been ruthless, so you're not alone <3

Remember that recent post?

Yup this is what I mean.

No one should be rejoicing at the acquisition - in fact gamers should be angry & start really supporting incredible legitimate indie developers that will put the gamers first before taking shortcuts

I had a dream 2 years ago to create a stream team for neurodivergent content creators

This week has been our first ever team raid train spanning over 4 days

Seeing creators befriend each other, share their ND experiences, and give Twitch members new places to hang out... I am so in my feels 😭

Neurodivergent+ @neurodivergentplus.bsky.social · Aug 10

By all measures, we'd have to say our first ever team raid train was a SUCCESS 🎉

Thank you to our amazing teamies who took the time to share themselves and their neurodivergent experiences for this event.

And thank YOU to those of you who supported them!

We couldn't do this without all of you ❤️
