"Indigeneity is treated as monolithic because it is easier for colonizers...to ignore the diversity within our own communities." Dr. Dr. Dr. Desi (she/her) :')

There is a rumbling happening in so-called British Columbia with resource extraction projects & Indigenous land defenders rising up to assert their rights. I’ve never witnessed them all in sync & escalating like it is now. Pay attention, it’s about to explode.

How you sound when you have been brainwashed by grind culture: “I want to take a nap and rest. I’m so exhausted but I just feel like I should be doing something.” Is breathing and listening/honoring your body not “something.”

Capitalism thrives on you believing your entire reason for being alive is to work, produce and prove your worth via labor.

I love this so much I'm willing to ignore the callout to JS. So bloody perfect. But "you don't have to take my word for it."

"My life's mission was bringing something of value to a community of people." I'm remember that this is how we used to live. We need more people to make their life's mission about serving others rather than themselves. And in the end, that's also how we serve ourselves.

Apologies are awesome - IF they are followed by actions that completely address the original grievance. Otherwise? Go kick rocks.

I just figured out one of the reasons I want to scream at life and the world and why my body and brain are restless. Yesterday's migraine only pretended to be gone. So yes, I'm feeling whiny and sorry for myself. I'll feel better in a day or two, but for now I'm bad company! 😂

Meet our newest little miracle, baby Njema. Born just a few days ago, we met her for the first time today when proud first-time mum Naserian brought her along for a truly special introduction: sheldrickwildlifetrust.org/news/updates/w…

But not one non-Indigenous person in Cda knew. Not one until RCAP, but then only a few gov't people knew. No non-gov't Cdn knew until the TRC reported it. But even then, no one, esp the media, knew there were unmarked graves until late June b/c they were never told. Really.
