Scrolled past this agakn and just can't get over how much I love it. We need to make things beautiful again and this is such a wonderful example. The beadwork on the wires of a utitarian object, contrasted with the grey concrete.

His mother not giving a fuck and hitting him over and over
The last residential school in Canada closed the same year Pokemon was first released on the Game Boy.
This post is gonna give me an aneurysm but I just want to highlight the residential schools thing (which tbh if you are in Canada you probably already know, or at least by god I hope you do. Everyone else can learn too)
MANY Indigenous people in Canada who are my age (~30yo) have PARENTS who were sent to residential schools. Not grandparents, or great-grandparents but literally their mom or dad.
Famous award winning Inuk singer Tanya Tagaq attended residential school. This is a picture of her in 2025:
She is 49 years old.

“The markings upon the band begin to fade. The writing, which at first was as clear as red flame, has all but disappeared… a secret now that only fire can tell.” - The Lord of the Rings: Fellowship of the Ring, 2001
Want to knit this scarf? You can download my free pattern here! :)
This is called illusion knitting! Basically, you knit a pattern in 2 color stripes, but then you use the difference between the texture of knits and purls to make a pattern appear at a low angle
When you look at it from the aide, a knit stitch looks flat while a purl stitch looks like a little bump. So if you have a pattern of knits and purls you look at from the side, the knit stitches will fade into the background while the purl stitches will stay visible. You use that effect, while keeping a steady stripe pattern, to create the illusion:
From above: plain stripes because your eye focuses on the colors
From the side: you see the pattern of purl stitches because they stick up above the flatter knit stitches
(Photos source)
And this lets you do some absolutely AMAZING patterns:
Plain stripey shawl becomes a PORTRAIT
Or, like above, a scarf becomes the One Ring
This is fascinating, thank you for the explanation! I´ve never seen something like it, but I´m also not the most experienced knitter.

The main site has all kinds of interesting knitting stuff, but this page is *just* illusion knitting.
Anyway, daily reminder from a culturally isolated Romani person.
Gypsy does not mean wanderer.
It literally means ‘people from egypt’ or similar, as europeans believed Romani people were from Egypt. It has become known similar to nomad due to how our ancestors have been forced to be nomadic due to racism and ostracization, but it is a SLUR.
Romani people are STILL being forcibly sterilized.
Romani people are STILL being forced into ghettos.
Romani people are still facing violence and danger in countless European countries- and recently, I’ve seen the beginnings of the extremes in the United States.
Have a little fucking respect and DON’T USE A SLUR THAT’S BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES AGAINST US.
And for the love of whatever’s up there, ESPECIALLY do not use it to describe your witchcraft. It is playing on the ‘magic gypsy’ trope, and is EXTREMELY insulting.
non romani people, please reblog this.
How are you gonna avoid the nazi allegations when you utilize the exact same policies
First of all, this is the city of Hebron. A city in the occupied West Bank. The fact that there are IOF terrorists here imposing laws on Palestinian territory is in itself not only an apartheid, but an occupation. The area here is to the Tomb of the Patriarchs/the Sanctuary of Abraham and the pathway is partitioned under the IOF's jurisdiction. They don't have that right.
Second, the map below shows several checkpoints in different sections of the city and roads that are off-limited to Palestinians, this is apartheid.
Third, the segregation points are there because of the increasing enroaching Israeli settlements in Hebron and the city center, all of which are also illegal under international law.
Here is the city map provided by Btselem and you tell me this isn't an apartheid

My dad has bees. Today, I went to his house and he showed me all the honey he had gotten from the hives. He took the lid off a 5-gallon bucket full of honey and on top of the honey there were 3 little bees, struggling. They were covered in sticky honey and drowning. I asked him if we could help them and he said he was sure they wouldn't survive. Casualties of honey collection I suppose.
I asked him again if we could at least get them out and kill them quickly, after all he was the one who taught me to put a suffering animal (or bug) out of its misery. He finally conceded and scooped the bees out of the bucket. He put them in an empty Chobani yogurt container and put the plastic container outside.
Because he had disrupted the hive with the earlier honey collection, there were bees flying all over outside.
We put the 3 little bees in the container on a bench and left them to their fate. My dad called me out a little while later to show me what was happening. These three little bees were surrounded by all their sisters (all of the bees are females) and they were cleaning the sticky nearly dead bees, helping them to get all of the honey off of their bodies. We came back a short time later and there was only one little bee left in the container. She was still being tended to by her sisters.
When it was time for me to leave, we checked one last time and all three of the bees had been cleaned off enough to fly away and the container was empty.
Those three little bees lived because they were surrounded by family and friends who would not give up on them, family and friends who refused to let them drown in their own stickiness and resolved to help until the last little bee could be set free.
Bee Sisters. Bee Peers. Bee Teammates.
We could all learn a thing or two from these bees.
Bee kind always.

@bergamotbitsj
I’ve been noticing some confusion in the notes regarding what culture this is, so here’s some more info!
The girl in the video is Sámi. The Sámi are an indigenous people from the region of Sápmi, which encompasses northern parts of Norway, Sweden, Finland and Russia.
The traditional clothing of Sámi people look different depending on which area tradition they belong to. This girl is north Sámi and she’s wearing a Lyngen dress (ivgu gákti in the north Sámi language), which means her family/ancestors came from Lyngen, Norway. Lyngen’s proximity to the sea made fishing a common means of livelihood for the Sámi living there, which earned them the name “sea Sámi”.
The girl in the video mentions that Sámi people get harassed a lot on the 17th of May, which is the Constitutional Day / National Day of Norway.

Congolese Man Self-Immolates to Highlight Overlooked Genocide in Congo
I’m really glad that Aaron’s self-immolation for Palestine is getting attention, but on November 8th there was also a Congolese man who did the same thing for the genocide happening in the DRC. From what I read in the article above, his fate and identity are unknown but I think his story should be getting equal amount of traction and I haven’t really seen anyone talking about it on Tumblr specifically yet.
