In unsurprising news, Facebook is full of AI ads and merch for Orange Shirt Day. It’s so sad and such an insult.

You can support me staying out of burnout + keeping prices down with a Patreon membership! Patrons get earlier notice on new products than other platforms, so when I have new stock, you get first dibs! Selling more in-stock items also helps me keep up easier. Check out my Patreon → cvkvlv.blog

Diesel just set another AAA record at $6.49 a gallon. It was $3.72 when Donald Trump took office. That is up $2.77 a gallon, 75 percent higher. Every truck that carries your groceries runs on it. Trump promised to drive prices down starting on Day One.

Pride pieces are some of my favorite to make. The visibility of pride accessories signals safety, allyship, and community. It helps us find each other in a world that can be scary and hostile to us. As a Two-Spirit artist these things are very important to me. → cvkvlv.com/products/pro...

And from @cvkvlv.com two pairs of gorgeous beaded earrings in two of my favorite color combinations. The purple/blue ones did not photograph quite accurately, they’re much more vibrant in person. I’ve loved Native beadwork forever as I grew up seeing lots of Seneca Nation beadwork here in WNY.

Blue, green, teal and white hand-beaded Native American earrings woven from seed beads, with a diamond-shape at the top and fringes of beads hanging from that.

Hand-beaded Native American earrings consisting of strands of blue, teal and purple seed beads in long, loose strands.

even if you have zero dollars the nicest thing you can do for an author is request that your local library buy a copy of our books every time i see that someone did this it feels so special. like, not only did they care, that made sure other people had access. it’s so kind 🥹

“Merciless Indian Savages.” These three words set into motion centuries of brutal anti-Native policy from the Indian Removal Act of 1830 to the Dawes Act to the reservation and boarding school systems — every policy carrying the weight of those three words into every new era.

Interesting, with all the #AI proponents on social media, that Google would fail to uphold their centralization views... #Bluesky #Mastodon

The platforms operate differently:

Bluesky: A single, centralized network with algorithmic feeds, making it easy to search for specific pets and discover creators using Bluesky Web.

Mastodon: Completely decentralized, meaning accounts are hosted on different servers but communicate through the Fediverse.
