Help needed!!
Tumblr media
Hey so I've been kind of stuck in a hole. My regular banking account has 12 dollars in it, and I need to pay this off in my credit card.
I've been looking for employment but have had little luck so far. Most of this is built up over a few months of having to buy food pretty much every day in order to not starve, with a couple of other purchases thrown in.
Literally anything helps, even reblogs.
Only got pay-pal, sorry

PSA: when an indigenous person says their people have 'always' been a place, they are trying to illustrate their emotional/spiritual/cultural/etc stake in the land since TIME IMMEMORIAL and when you say "well actually all humans came from Africa :)" you look like an asshole. for multiple reasons <3

The Biden administration’s Willow project would emit more hydrogen dioxide than a third of the coal plants in USA. It is absolute insanity to start more fossil fuel production when the planet is already far beyond its limits. Sign the petition to stop this madness!

My main blog is more like a personal diary for me, but I’ll miss Native Twitter—I met so many cool people on there and made so many friends… So I made this side blog so I could feel less self conscious about potentially sharing this account with my mutuals over there lmao

I should have known if I brought up wc I’d have to talk about. But it includes of a lot of issues with feral/furry designs that use feathers in hair. I don’t necessarily know why the conversation only started and stayed in the wc fandom when horse/wolf/lion feral fandoms are still doing the same thing.
Now having feathers in the design isn’t a racial attack first thing off because there’s a lot of context around what feather’s are used, the shape, and where they are placed. If the look is anything like "rave Coachella looking tribal fantasy feathers and beads" it’s probably insensitive. I’m not to sure why it has to be feathers, I honestly think the wc fandom are holding themselves back when it comes to forwarding designs in a unique way. Tail feathers are also left out in this conversation as well, one or two feathers or feathers in the shape of a birds tail are fine but bunched together feathers are leaning to close to how we have our horses wear feathers. This is in the context of the design already looking like a "medicine cat" already its bad. it’s like those yt girls wear feather head bands but animal addition.

I’ve talked about this before but silhouettes are so important, like Native American stereotypes are on the global scale you cannot escape this silhouette you just have to avoid it. There’s no "but it’s in so many other cultures" no it’s not it’s totally unique to our people that’s why people flock to it because it’s so "mysterious, sacred" whatever their weird twisted up reason is. There’s so many unique ways to break this silhouette you just gotta be more creative. And I feel like instead of being more creative and coming up with totally different ideas it’s just easier to lean on these visual native stereotypes to get across "wild mythical nature fantasy"

I could get into the horse fandom and the weird situations they’re doing over there but that’s another crazy thing. I should say because someone will ask, ostrich feathers on like show horses or knights or puss in boots style is fine not the same thing (breaking the silhouette) they’re not related.
And it comes down to understanding what you are drawing and where this imagery comes from, I’m not gonna get my feelings hurt because of your design but I’ll question why are you drawing stuff like that. You cant remove that cultural/stereotypical imagery, and if you don’t care about it then you don’t care about the history or how it looks on your character and art.
I made it this far on the internet but if you want to be conscious about these things good on yea it doesn’t take much☺️👍
Edit: can’t believe I gotta say this but yes other cultures utilize feathers, if people are using feathers that are used in their culture then don’t harass them. That’s weird have some common sense. Ostrich feathers, peacock feathers it’s actually so interesting how native birds to an area affect the culture there.

Here's something new to know about me. I'm a Murramarang woman from the south coast of New South Wales, and an Aboriginal Artist. I'm learning and trying to bring Dhurga (my native language) back to life after it was nearly destroyed during colonisation.
Here are a couple of my paintings.
The first is a Giriwa (goanna), the totem of my tribe, painted in our traditional x-ray style. This type of painting was used to illustrate and educate, to teach biology and anatomy.
Tumblr media
The second is a warigal (dingo) painted in a more decorative style, with a fusion of our more narrative style of art and my own modern style.

If you've stumbled upon this post, I hope you learned something from it! I love sharing my culture ❤💛🖤

Hi. I need help. I'm unable to work, and I have no food. I live in a household with my father who consistently says he'll do things like buy groceries or put a door on my basement suite, but never follows through. I'm left to basically pay for all of my necessities myself on credit with no actual income.
Basically: I live in an abusive household and need help paying off my credit card that racked up this much due to the aforementioned abusive household.
Anything helps including reblogs. The link is the only payment method I have. Please don't tag this with "d/onation".
Edit: Just to clarify, this is how much is owed on my credit card, not how much I have available. I realized it's not exactly clear.

If you’re outside the US and want to help, here are ten things you can do to protect ICWA, Indigenous children, and Tribal Sovereignty as a whole.
Share information about ICWA, Brackeen v Haaland, and Tribal Sovereignty
Share information about rallies, protests, and strategy meetings
Share the donation information of organizations that are fighting to protect ICWA
Donate to those organizations to help them continue to fight
Share the stories of Indigenous adoptees, survivors of residential schools, and the families involved in Brackeen v Haaland
Follow @protectICWA on twitter for live updates
Educate yourself on Tribal Sovereignty, residential schools and the 60s scoop, and cultural genocide as a tool of genocide.
Educate yourself on MMIP/MMIWG2S and familiarize yourself with the tactics those against Tribal Sovereignty use to undermine us.
Learn exactly who is fighting to get rid of ICWA and why. Hint: Gibson Dunn (representing the Brackeens) is the same law firm that supported the Dakota Access Pipeline (DAPL) Now I wonder who benefits from slowly but surely removing Indigenous people from our lands? 🤔
Uplift Indigenous voices that are speaking out and speaking up on ALL platforms. Tell your friends, tell your family, and show up to support us if you can. If ICWA is struck down, we will not be going without a fight. Be prepared.
This linktree has tons of information about ICWA, why it is important, what’s at stake, and what you can do to help. Even simply sharing an article link from here to 10 followers that go on to share to their 10 followers can help!
