i am going to tell you guys something and it's going to sound made up but i need you to believe me just this once

[beaft]

the staff at the café i frequent have a fucking betting pool going about what gender i am

[beaft]

i told my ex about this and they admitted that they didn't know if i was transmasc or transfem until our fourth date and they figured it wasn't their business so they just didn't ask

????????

[hollywolly3000]

I think some people would kill in cold blood to have whatever gender presentation you have going on

[id: unfortunately, its kurt russel in the thing (1982) wearing a baby slut tshirt and camo capris.]

noone in this house appreciates anything i do

[manuciruja]

awww the like button turns into a rainbow when you press it! that's so cute...hey staff what's with all the trans women you keep nuking?

[manuciruja]

i think we should be ridiculing them more for this. you don't get to try and go all "queer website" when your staff likes to go on nuking sprees targeting the trans fem users

I don't have time for tumblr discourse they're calling the very hungry caterpillar degenerate art over on twitter

[despazito]

good art is when something looks like real life, the more real it looks the more better the art. abstracted figures give my trad children nightmares, one time they were exposed to cubism and couldn't go outside for a week

More pieces from the Vinita Cultural Center from last year's basketry exhibit

#the museum i worked at had a collection of these baskets!!!#they are like #idk its hard to describe them #they dont look quite like regular baskets they look like so beautiful #anyways check out the Mountain Heritage Center's exhibit on cherokee/rivercane baskets to learn more

Yes, for some reason I don't think they had any Rivercane baskets at this exhibit, the Vinita cultural center is a bit small so maybe that had to do with it? But traditionally Rivercane baskets look like this:

The basket pictured in the post is likely commercial round reed (with some flat reed), the commercial form of the materials we would use such as Honeysuckle, Buckbrush, or Trumpet Vine. Many Western Cherokee picked up round reed basketry due to lack of supply of Rivercane after the forced removal to Oklahoma.

I'm not exactly sure what you're referring to in regards to this post but I am a tribal member who is posting this and these were taken at our own museum within our own territory in Oklahoma. This information provided is provided by our knowledge keepers and elders.

I am one of these people you talk about being alive, sharing my culture 🙂

I strongly dislike how "some museums have unethical practices, and repatriation of stolen goods should be a high priority when applicable" has morphed into "all museums are evil, and museums are an unethical and untrustworthy source of information by nature."

Also: where the hell do you think culture is shared? Do you think that you can just... show up to some Indigenous elder's house and go "pls teach me about baskets, thank you?"

Boy, if only there was some kind of centralized location that was open to the public where you could go to learn about things! Maybe a location that has storage space for lots of items and displays to help people understand those items so that you're not constantly asking artisans to do the intellectual labor of explanation! Maybe a location that has room for artists in residency so that they can show you the things they do, or a location that has space to bring in guest speakers. Oh, and it definitely needs to have centralized digital infrastructure to store records based about items so that we're not making a bunch of scattered artisans write stuff down and keep it in boxes in their closet or something.

I wonder what an institution like that would be called.

The original pride flag and the sewing machine it was sewn on

[iwriterobots]

[userfish]

this pride month we’re all going to be radically pro transgender. or else.

[userfish]

hey so this means radically pro ALL transgender. don’t put limitations on this. all trans people are radically accepted here.
