Lily Gladstone in Reservation Dogs (2023)

S3.E10 ∙ Dig

Say that he spent time with each of these people, a good moment. Let’s even say that he spoke to them about some things. Say he gave them teachings. Now, each one of these people – they carry that with them. Now, imagine all the people that are close to you. Your friends. Now, they all carry you with them, so, in turn, they carry Fixico with them, too. And all this — that’s how community works. It’s sprawling. It spreads. What do you think they came for when they tried to get rid of us? Our community. You break that, then you break the individual. Fixico isn’t gone. He’s right here, between you and me.

i really hate the way people talk about climate change on here. yes, we should be doing something. no, the majority of pollution is done on an industrial scale that we cannot solve as individuals. yes, we should still be doing things as individuals. no, it's not completely pointless. yes, there are scientists who are pushing to solve these serious problems before things get worse. no, we will not all instantly die in the next 2 years if these actions arent taken, we'll just have to come up with different, less effective solutions and continue to push companies. yes, things have been pushed and changed before, and it can be done again. no, it's not an easy task, and it never has been under capitalism. yes, many indigenous groups already know how to solve many of the agricultural problems. no, it is not by "coincidence", indigenous people are not stupid, and these solutions were not created for white people to snatch and claim as their own ingenious work. yes, there is no ethical consumption under capitalism. no, that amazon same-day delivery is probably not justified. its just complicated. why overload people with despair and mind numbing grief and tell people that humanity is hopeless and make people apathetic or even pro-humanity's destruction? why would you do that? it's a tough subject but going straight to "we're all gonna die anyway so who cares" is the dumbest fucking thing. come on.

#anis gaymer moments #okay to reblog i guess but dont be weird. idk #people always despair about a post-apocalyptic world and i just think about the countless quotes about how indigenous people are already #living in that post-apocalypse. surviving isn't easy but it's doable and it's worth it. humans help the ecosystem. humans help animals.#humans help other people when they can. humans are good. we have beautiful cultures and languages. we have families and friends.#we shouldnt be throwing that away. dont tell me ecofascist garbage.#ask to tag

Sun makes the day new. Tiny green plants emerge from earth. Birds are singing the sky into place. There is nowhere else I want to be but here. I lean into the rhythm of your heart to see where it will take us.

"There's no such thing as neutrality. The people who use that label are people who unknowingly, for the most part, are dedicated to the support of the status quo."

"I came into this world already scarred by loss on both sides of my family. My Indigenous side; my European side. My father and my mother were the kind of damaged people who should never have had children. But of course, they had me, and so my first language was loss."

[Doctrine of] Discovery negated the rights of the Indian tribes to sovereignty and equality among the nations of the world. It took away their title to their land and gave them the right only to sell. And they had to sell it to the European nation that had discovered their land.

Vine Deloria Jr. (Standing Rock Sioux), Custer Died for Your Sins: An Indian Manifesto, first published in 1969
