Across the United States, there are 556 federally recognized American Indian and Alaska Native nations. Each one has itâs own unique history and culture. American education has not bothered to tell us that Native people lived in peace and effectively governed themselves before the Europeans came along. American education has not informed us that Native Americans have been slighted ever since, not even being recognized as citizens (despite the fact that they were here first) until the 20th century.Â
But we donât have to push these facts aside. We can stop celebrating a man that began a genocide and a terrible theft of land and culture, and start celebrating Indigenous Peoples for their rich history and their equal contributions to society.
To all Indigenous Peoples out there: weâre glad youâre here!
We will stand with you in your continued battle to be recognized as legitimate human beings instead of the stereotypes perpetuated by Columbus and those that came after him.
not to be naive but it still shocks me when people are so apathetic and cruel towards others like .. youâre literally rotting on the inside ⌠, hope you feel better soon ?
im obsessed w physical closeness, romanticallyâŚ.not even sexually just if u date me itâs all hugging all the time we are gonna lay in bed and im gonna cuddle w u, we will stand in the kitchen and i will stand hip to hip w u, u will sit on the couch and i will stroke your hair and kiss your foreheadâŚ.itâs so intoxicating as a concept
Iâm still laughing like poor Dr. Bruce Banner really could not catch a single break for all of Infinity WarâŚ.first he crashes into some weird ass wizard hideoutâŚ.then Hulk decides to be a bitchâŚ..he thought Thor was dead for a whole day, then he thought Tony was deadâŚ.he had to get caught up on 2 years worth of drama in like fifteen minutesâŚRhodey tricked him into embarrassing himself in front of the fucking king of WakandaâŚ.then a sixteen year old ended his entire life with one polite sentenceâŚ.he face planted on the battle field and was judged so hard we didnât see him for like another half hourâŚ.not a single one of his degrees could help him with any of these situations so he was probably internally like âI drove myself into student debt for thisâ half the filmâŚlike reallyâŚ.Bruce and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad DayâŚ.
i had the best human interaction of all time last night. i was sitting at a bar eating an appetizer and this guy comes up to order a drink and stares at my food and comments how good it looks. when i am drunk i use the word bitch like it is a comma, i plug it into any space in a sentence possible. so naturally the first thing i say to this stranger is, âgo ahead and take one, bitch.â
he looks SO shocked and taken aback and goes âwhat did you just say? how do you know my name?â so i sit there for a moment trying to figure out what the fuck he is talking about, and then go, ââŚ. bitch?â and he looks so relieved and tells me his name is mitch.
i cannot stop thinking about this. oh my god. imagine going into a bar and someone you know for a fact youve never met approaches you and says âgo ahead and take one, mitch.â im cracking the fuck up. he looked like he thought this was the fucking truman show
