the eclipse energy was wild this week. I got engaged, my sister dumped her boyfriend, and an estranged friend tried to reconnect with me in the span of 72 hours
I made a viral meme thing that went like, “Bro doesn’t even know he’s a metaphor for _____” and it would be stuff like capitalism and alcoholics n such, I believe someone used it on me and I was a metaphor for insecurities and it messed me up a little.
Rapid City hotel owner under fire for saying she won't rent to Native Americans
Great Sioux Nation Issues "Notice of Trespass" Against Owner of Hotel that Banned Native Americans
Connie Uhre is the 76-year-old owner of the Grand Gateway Hotel that posted on social media she would ban Native American from the property after a shooting took place in one of the hotel rooms in the early hours of March 19. Uhre wrote on Facebook: “Do [sic] to the killing that took place at the Grand Gateway Hotel on March 19, 2022 at 4 am, plus all the vandalism we have had since the Mayor and Police Department are working with the non-profit organization (Dark Money), we will no longer allow Native Americans on property, including Cheers.”
Five Sioux Tribes Serve Eviction Notice on Racist Rapid City Hotel Owners
Hoka Hey—it’s always a good day to tell racists to go away.
That banner was the public-facing version of the notice of trespass five tribal leaders—Crow Creek Chairman Peter Lengkeek, Oglala Lakota President Kevin Killer, Rosebud Sioux President Scott Herman, Cheyenne River Sioux Chairman Harold C. Frazier, and Standing Rock Sioux Chairwoman Janet Alkira—served the owners of the Grand Gateway Hotel yesterday:
…five tribal leaders signed a Notice of Trespass. Indicating the hotel has violated terms of a Treaty made with the Sioux in 1868 based on the location of the hotel, and the racist comments made that they say violate article one of the treaty.
“This is who we are as descendants of the 1851 and 1868 treaty,” says President Kevin Killer.
Herman says they’re instructing the hotel and its subsidiaries to vacate the premises, or be held liable, and they “service[ed] the Notice of Trespass today.”
The Great Sioux Nation says they’re willing to take the following actions needed to end racism on the treaty lands indefinitely[, i]ncluding boycotting Rapid City, pressuring the City Council to Revoke businesses Licenses, filing hate crime charges against the owner of the hotel and more [Jeffrey Lindblom, “Tribal Leaders Serve Notice of Trespass to Hotel Following Racist Comments, Asked to Vacate Property,” KOTA-TV, 2022.03.26].
Grand Gateway boss Nick Uhre isn’t smart enough to read his own state’s laws about impeachment and municipal government; he’ll be in way over his head if he has to start reading federal treaties with the sovereign Indian tribes. So he’d better find a lawyer who understands treaties, because the tribal leaders say in their notice of trespass that if the Uhres don’t remove their persons and any personal property they deem necessary from the Treaty Territory of the Great Sioux Nation immediately, the Great Sioux Nation will “institute legal proceedings to recover possession of said Premises which shall result in a declaratory and/or monetary judgment against you, including costs.”
Boy, Nick: it seems it would be a lot easier to be a polite guest on Indian treaty lands and accept Indian guests at your hotel.
me: what if grey isn’t real. what if all grey’s are just colors that the human eye cannot perceive. what if we’re all like a dog starring at a red apple, and seeing nothing but shades of brown and grey.
Therapist: yes.. the forbidden shrimp colors. We’ve discussed this in length before.
Here is a rite for contacting the true Fair Folk. It must be understood that the true Fair Folk are quite unlike their New Age depiction, and are divided into two primary types, the Light, and the Dark. There are many tribes of the Faerie, and range in physicality from dwarven in stature to exceedingly tall. Their magick is powerful and strange to us, and through interaction with them, the Practitioner may gain a change of consciousness and strong arcane knowledge.

maybe I’m the only one bothered by this but WHY is it that when I buy and cook shrimp it’s always the nasty crunchy jello shrimp in pic #1 and not the amazing beautiful perfect meaty shrimp in #2
