also bc i feel like no one listens even tho its been said several times but sioux is derogatory dont call us that, some people, especially elders will refer to themselves and our tribes as sioux which is different, but if you arent from an oceti sakowin tribe dont use it its insulting. oceti sakowin isnt even that hard to say, or you could call us by our individual tribes, or bands.

ive shared the pronunciation before but again Očhéthi Šakówiŋ is said Oh-sheh- tea Shah-ko-Wen i am from the Lakota oyate (la-ko-dah oh-yah-tay) i am Oglala(ohg-la-la), and Sicangu(she-chahn-goo). the sh and ch sounds arent a full shh or chh sound but softer and sort of half way between a sh and a s sound/ ch and c sound.

[katbery]

YES!

Here is a video of the pronunciation;

Xomatok.

Astonishingly gorgeous mural work on staircases from Peruvian artist Xomatok across Lima, Peru.

The works are explorations in the alteration of space focusing on color and its relationship with humanity.

Honestly, probably the best social tip I could ever give you guys is literally just ask. Need to make a doctor's appointment but don't know how? Call the doctor's office and ask. Don't know the meaning of what someone said? Ask them. Don't understand the instructions you were given? Ask them to repeat or clarify. This has literally never failed me, no one's gotten angry, no one's refused to answer.

Even in situations where you think it might not work, I once accidentally missed a deadline to accept a job offer, so I called and asked if they could reset it and they did. Just today I called a doctor and asked how to schedule an appointment, the lady told me how, and then I did it. Didn't know if someone was being sarcastic or not, so I asked and they told me. Just ask.

[acabosetotal]

FUCK, I though it was just another lucky meme but LISTEN. Since a week ago I was waiting a phone call to confirm me if I got a job or not in my university. I reblogged this yesterday’s night “just for fun and because I don’t want any bagel to be mad with me”, and today’s afternoon, while I was losing my time as always, the professor I was supposed to work with called me and asked me for my personal information to start working with her.

THE BAGEL POWERS ARE WAY TOO MUCH FOR THIS WORLD

Sitting Bull

From Ruth H Hopkins: "On December 15, 1890, Tatanka Iyotake (Sitting Bull) was assassinated. An Indian agent had ordered his capture, because the U.S. government was afraid of his power and influence and of the ghost dance movement. 39 policemen and 4 volunteers were sent to arrest one man, Sitting Bull.

When they went to his house to arrest Sitting Bull, he refused to go. Then the police shot Sitting Bull in the chest & head. Lakota loyal to Sitting Bull confronted the police, and killed a total of 9 of them, including the officer who shot Sitting Bull.

Tatanka Iyotake (Sitting Bull) took his last breath between noon & 1pm. The wailing of women could be heard in every direction.

Sitting Bull was a Chief, Medicine Man, prophet, & statesman. He was a member of the Kit Fox Society, the Midnight Strong Heart Society & many others. The Strong Hearts were an elite group of warriors. He was also a sash wearer, a title reserved for only the bravest of Lakota.

It was Sitting Bull who received the vision of Custer’s Fall at Greasy Grass (Little Big Horn) while sundancing. He gave 50 pieces of flesh that day. That’s why the people were camped at Little Big Horn; for Sundance. In his vision, Sitting Bull saw soldiers fall like grasshoppers, and a voice said unto him, “I give these to you, because they have no ears."

Sitting Bull was loved by many. Other Native Nations ran to him for help, like the Nez Perce. After the Dakota War in Minnesota, some Dakota went to camp with Sitting Bull of the Hunkpapa Lakota. Some of his wives were Dakota. That’s who made him Dakota floral beadwork.

Sitting Bull once traveled to visit Wovoka, a Paiute holyman who had the vision of the Ghost Dance. He left a sacred bundle on their lands.

“If we must die, we die defending our rights.” -Sitting Bull"

for those like me that are usually too lazy to click on links. This is from the NBC article.

LOL I guess we'll all be coming back to Tumblr now.

[frumpkingoesfurrst]

We’ll never die

[frumpkingoesfurrst]

For future confused Tumblr cockroaches, this post is about Facebook and it’s affiliated sites, Instagram and WhatsApp, temporarily crashing on October 4th, 2021.

We all gathered together to celebrate our refusal to fucking die and put a collective middle finger up to Mark Zuckerberg.

Like or reblog to flip Mark Zuckerberg off and receive good vibes :)

[firlalaith]

additional context: apparently this outage is global, longest thus far in facebook's history, and follows close on the heels of a whistleblower coming forward with proof of facebook knowing the way their sites run causes harm.
