the problem is here represented by snuffleupagus with a mop, which probably means that you’re secretly desiring a clean, fresh start. current environment is represented by the green rhombus, uh typically this means you are seeking validation. you already know within yourself that this is what you want to do, and you’re just exploring the problem from all angles, uh, seeking that validation. and the solution going forward is represented by the mail card, uh, which i believe- uh, i interpret that to mean that you should reach out to the folks in the area that you would like to move to and correspond with them. so basically you know what you wanna do, uh and you should do this right but don’t feel like you have to do this alone. the sesamerot has spoken.
god i have seen what you’ve done for others……

"One of the most dangerous federal cases involving tribal rights in decades yet all tribes are unaware of this"
Reblog this post. Please. Natives need allies.
(x)
to quote a different article:
“This was an unnecessary legal fight that Governor Inslee and WDFW [Washington State Department of Fish and Wildlife] volunteered for and then refused to back down from, despite the state having no material interest in the outcome,” said Chairman Robert de los Angeles. “It is sickening that Washington State is wasting taxpayer resources and state employee time trying to prevent a Snoqualmie grandmother from gathering huckleberries, or a Snoqualmie veteran from hunting deer to support his family. It is inconsistent with everything our state stands for, and the values we teach our children.”
[Transcript: tiktok by @ showme_yourmask. A person is speaking directly to the camera, with the words “Indian Country Today” over their head, and the words, “Snoqualmie Indian Tribe” in the center of the screen. The person says, “The Pacific Northwest case has endangered tribes nationwide. The Snoqualmie Tribe Native Chairman has made a statement.
‘Now, in August of 2021, a Ninth Circuit decision gave federal judges powers over tribes they do not have under the Constitution – the unilateral right to ignore tribal treaty signatories and judicially nullify the reserved hunting and gathering rights of tribal citizens in perpetuity.
This is one of the most dangerous federal cases involving tribal rights in decades, yet all tribes are unaware of this.’ Our rights are at stake too. So please take action by petitioning to the United States Supreme Court, look out for the petition. And the petition is to rein in federal judges who are trying to take over the role as Congress. Learn more at Indian Country Today dot com.” End transcript.]
I’ve never seen this filter put to such good use.

Transcript:
Waves of Americans are refusing to go on working terrible jobs for insulting salaries, and Conservatives are not happy about it.
Now they try to go about their daily ritual of driving their truck up to a window and screaming at it until a chicken sandwich comes out, and when that doesn't work, because all the employees are gone, they take to Facebook: "What has this country come to?!" "What happened to the days when Americans would work long hours without complaining about things like...a living wage or basic human dignity?"
And you hear this and you're just like "Man, y'all just really want slavery back, huh? Y'all still miss slavery that much?"
What is this insistence on licking the boot of these corporate overlords? Why is it so hard to understand that if they want people to continue sacrificing their health, time, and sanity by working for them in a pandemic, then they can compensate them commensurately for it—which, and I know it's a novel concept in this capitalist Hellscape, means paying people enough money for both food and shelter.
And if they need to sell off an art wing or a racehorse portfolio to do that, so be it! If they refuse to do that, then they can hang up the "For Sale" sign and shut the fuck up. That's how shit works. There's nothing un-American about any of this.
The movement isn't lazy, it's necessary.
And I just think it's funny that it's happening at the same time as thousands of Conservatives are walking away from their jobs...because of their inalienable right to cast the plague onto your grandma!
That's right: apparently, if you leave your job because you're tired of being a faceless cog in an inherently disrespectful machine that refuses to acknowledge your worth as a human being, that makes you lazy and entitled. But if you leave your job because you refuse to take even the most basic of precautions in the middle of the greatest global health crisis any of us have ever known, that makes you a "Patriot", and a "Freedom-Fighter".
These people think they have the fundamental right to endanger the health and safety of those around them, because they find that wearing a mask makes it a little harder to mouth-breathe, and then they call everyone else entitled? My ass, man.
But ultimately I hope that both sides continue to leave their jobs; the former because it's the right thing to do and the right message to send, and the latter 'cause we don't really need them dumbin' up the works anyway.
Love y'all.
he is right and he should say it
This is a stupid conversation! and I'm not going to continue it! literally so fucking correct
What I’m really proud of is the fact that he made SURE the audience understood why the caller was being an idiot. He made a PERFECT comparison, gave the caller an honest chance to re-evaluate and change his mind. His point landed, everyone knew it, even the caller (note his pause and almost hesitancy after being asked).
But when the caller decided to bulldoze on anyway, because god forbid actually listen to the other person in the conversation, the expert cut him off and refused his time. And good for him.
[VD: A tweet by @ g33kgurli, tweeted at 9:47 PM on Dec 17, 2021. It reads, "Perhaps the best clap back to antivaxxers and antimaskers." Attached is a video from The Thom Hartmann Program, where Hartmann is talking with a caller. The conversation goes as follows:
Caller: Hey Thom. Uh, I was listening to you for the last hour so, um, I heard survival of the fittest. Um, you know some of us choose not to vaccinate and uh--
Hartmann: You're nuts, Nicholas.
Caller: --because we work very hard about staying fit, eating healthy, and our natural immune system.
Hartmann: So Nicholas if you're so healthy, would you have unprotected sex with somebody who has syphilis or gonorrhea?
Caller: You're missing the point.
Hartmann: No, I'm not missing the point. They're contagious diseases. Would you have unprotected sex with somebody who has syphilis and gonorrhea and not worry about it because you're so healthy?
Caller: [pause] No, I wouldn't do that.
Hartmann: Okay, then why would you expose yourself to covid without having some protection?
Caller: Because the protection is my natural immunity.
Hartmann: No, it's not. Tell that--
Caller: Yes, yes, my natural immunity--
Hartmann: Tell that to eight hundred thousand dead Americans. Nicholas, this is- this is a stupid conversation and I'm not going to continue it.

This is a very powerful life hack.
[Video Description: A tiktok by @/josephschles. It shows a doorway, and there is text on the screen that reads, “How to deal with toxic families during the holidays - life hack.” A man walks through the doorway with a covered bowl and says, “Hi everyone, happy Thanksgiving, I brought cookies!” Voices offscreen say, “Wow, you really gained some weight. Save some cookies for the rest of us.” and “Do me a favor and don't bring up your lgbt stuff tonight.”
The camera switches so it is facing the man's side. He turns to it, puts his hand towards his face as if he's whispering, and says, “They don't know that I know this hack.” He then turns towards the door and walks out. /End description.
Image Description: A picture of a human skeleton posed to look as if it's running. On top of the image is text in different fonts reading: "Just walk out! You can leave! Work, social thing, movies, home, class, dentist, clothes shopping, too fancy weed store, cops if you're quick, friendship— if it sucks (elipses) hit the bricks! Real winners quit! The share zone." /End Description.]
I found this really important tiktok about what to do if a Jehovah's Witness or Morman missionary comes to your door:
I spent some time in a Jehovah's Witness church. They're exceptionally skilled at recruiting people into their church. (And I was an ATHEIST)
I left after a couple months, I stayed just long enough to see that they explicitly believe women are inferior to men, and of course, that homosexuality is a sin on par with murder.
The whole missionary door to door thing is NOT how Jehovah's Witnesses recruit. That is how they convince their members that the world is out to get them. One of the first things they teach is that Jesus requires you to try to convert non Christians to the faith. (They say non Christian but mean non JW.)
Then they say, "look how people treat us, just for the crime of wanting to save their soul"
They have long time church members tutor the incoming members to smooth the process over. They're trained to smooth away any doubts you may have about the church.
It is a textbook cult but because it's a Christian cult, nobody will do anything about it.
I just wanted to share, in case no one realizes how messed up JW can be, my family only left after the elders followed around my teenage aunts and other young women to "ensure they weren't sinning" and my great-grandparents STILL stayed!

Exmormon here, this is TRUE, to reiterate from satanslover above, “The whole missionary door to door thing is NOT how Jehovah's Witnesses recruit. That is how they convince their members that the world is out to get them.”
The same is true of mormonism. I know how annoying the missionaries are, but please take just ten seconds to be polite to them instead, please support cult victims 💖💖
HELP IM ADDICTED TO MAKING THESE EDITS I CANT BELIEVE THIS MOMENT WAS IMMORTALIZED ON VIDEO
You look at them, you see the puppeteers do their thing and talk straight into the mic, and yet, you still can’t see anything but the puppets.
We have a lot to say about Harry Potter and the myriad of horrible, problematic, racist, classist, sexist, etc. things embedded into the foundation of the story that will be explored throughout Misfits and Magic.
And because it always needs to be said - trans rights, fuck TERFs.
