Being that today is for Native and Indigenous nations, I will restate that, while I understand the compulsion to opt for the less expensive "Southwestern" sterling knock offs, those pieces are 90% white people stealing Native styles then outsourcing the labor to sweatshops, often the Phillipines.

I have a lighter one made of double gauze for the warm parts of the year, and a cozier waffle-knit one for when it gets chilly. Mmm, so cozy.

NASA picture of the day today is a real 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿beauty! This is a composite image of the ~5000yo Callanish Stones on the Isle of Lewis. The amazing Giuseppe Petricca has only gone and photographed the Sun at noon there, every few days, for a whole year. #Dedication 🔭🧪👌 ℹ️: science.nasa.gov/image-articl...

The imposing Callanish Stones stand talk with their shadows spanning out across the glass. It's a super clear sky, but looks cold. Above the central stone is a strange figure-of-8 shape of dots. This is the location of the Sun, at noon, on various different days across the year.

It's not *that* bad, just more noticeable than the last few years' flu shots have been to me. A moment of "ooh, that stings a bit" is definitely preferable to days or weeks of misery from the flu!

An illustrated sketchbook page titled "Textiles & Carpets" breaking down traditional Uzbek rugs and fabrics. The top row shows hanging samples of Shyrdak (felt mats), Kilim (flat-woven), and Gilam (tufted) carpets alongside chibi-style characters explaining each technique. The bottom section features three detailed textile patterns labeled "Suzani" (floral embroidery), "Ikat" (vibrant dyed weaves), and "Zardozi" (ornate goldwork).

A page from a book, printed in a reddish-brown ink. The top left contains a stylised papercut picture of a slightly scrawny, scraggly-looking fox. Beneath it is the text of the poem, “Fox’, by Ian Hamilton Finlay, published in GLASGOW BEASTS, AN A BURD, HAW, AN INSEKS, AN, AW, A FUSH, with papercuts by John Picking & Pete McGinn (The Wild Flounder Press, 1961):

not all ways of doing gender reinstate patriarchial power: just like not all ways of doing femininity instates subjugation, not all ways of doing masculinity instates dominance. in fact, some ways of doing masculinity subvert heterosexual, cissexual, patriarchal imperatives and thus are oppressed.

Something that was once exciting and new and maybe a little scary has become routine, even a little boring. How incredible that is, to be so comfortable in myself that needing to trim my facial hair is an “ugh, I really should get around to it” now.

I think I’ve talked about this here before, but one of the neat things to me about being a little further along in my transition now is how it’s just become a mundane part of my self-care routine. Shower, brush my teeth, shave, do my T shot, brush my hair. Chop wood, carry water.
