"Nothing is original. Steal from anywhere that resonates with inspiration or fuels your imagination. Devour old films, new films, music, books, paintings, photographs, poems, dreams, random conversations, architecture, bridges, street signs, trees, clouds, bodies of water, light and shadows. Select only things to steal from that speak directly to your soul. If you do this, your work (and theft) will be authentic. Authenticity is invaluable; originality is nonexistent. And don’t bother concealing your thievery – celebrate it if you feel like it." - Jim Jarmusch

I know it's not canon, but I was imagining Tink exploring other fairy circles, maybe some that stay on earth. Here's a group of desert fairies who live in/promote growth in a little oasis.

hey there, i was wondering if you knew anything about when the scotus will actually review the ICWA, like what date? i keep looking it up to try and find out oabout protests happening beforehand, but ican't find anything, no date, no protests, and i'm trying to findw ways to help but so far i haven't really been able to find anything, could you perhaps point me to more information on this? i really want to help but so far i can't find many ways to help, much information on it other than tumblr posts, i've watched a few videos and signed a few petitions but i want to help more so if you know of any ways, it would be really appreciated! if not, then that's fine too and i hope you have a nice day.

October itll be up for review, there is no specific date atm. And a decision will likely be made in 2023 according to another article I read.

There are no protests or anything most likely because this is a native concern which unfortunately means that a Lot people probably have no idea it's happening. Media suppresses us a lot and people generally don't go out of their way to inform themselves about our issues.

So a way you can help is spreading awareness. Tell people.

Get them to understand that this will put all our rights as natives under threat. Housing, food, even our land, etc. You could make graphics or share some that natives made already. Go out of your way to share posts like that on a regular basis so you there's no chance anyone on your feed misses the info.

Mention wanting to protest for it. Hopefully some people will share your posts and organizers will start to take notice.

Grand rising family 🙌🏾 some history on this great rising….

Relaxing or straightening our hair was a cultural custom that was practiced and passed down from generation to generation long before any Native American (black Indians) saw a white face on their land. So there is no way we could be trying to look white!

Our ancestors discovered that by soaking the corn in a solution called lime or woodash lye water, it would soften or burn the hulls of corn kernels. They soon discovered that this lye could be used for many things.

For example, they found that by using the lye water on the bark of a tree, it would soften the fibers and remove the sap that would make the bark hard.

After boiling the strips of bark and shaving them down to small pieces the bark fibers could be used to make all kinds of things like ropes, lines, nets, mats, baskets, bags, belts, straps, and shoes just to name a few.
