Walking In Two Worlds & The Everlasting Road

YA sff set in the near future where an opensource augmented reality is commonly used like social media, and there’s also a completely virtual fantasy game version

follows an Anishinaabe girl who who’s the top player in the VR game, and is constantly fighting to keep her place against the misogynist neo-nazi group in second place

as well as her real life, dealing with being a shy and self-conscious teen growing up on the Rez, and her brother having cancer

and a Uyghur boy who’s moved to her community from China after finding acceptance in an online community (even when he doesn’t agree with their more extreme views) - but when he gets to know Bugz, he has to decide who truly deserves his loyalty

great mix of sff and culture, the future while also very real community traumas of the past (and present)

#walking in two worlds #the everlasting road #wab kinew #aroaessidhe 2024 reads #This has some REALLY interesting and important concepts! #I just think it could have used some more development… Obvs this is YA and I’m an adult I know I’m not quite the audience! #There’s a lot of depth in the setup of the characters but I feel like it skips a lot of the progression #I think there could have been space for more development in a lot of places to make the story feel more dimensional #- but also has so many plot threads that maybe that would have bulked it out too much #It does also jump around quite a bit between the different parts but I think that makes sense with how juggling with irl / online life. #she’s got a lot of internalised fatphobia at the start (and the love interest going “I don’t think you’re fat!!” when people call her fat.. #then in book 2 suddenly she’s okay about it - again I wish there was some progression! #her brothers cancer journey is. basically all offscreen lol mostly as set up for plot in book 2. so it doesn't have the emotional impact it #could have.. #I liked the way it integrates her culture into the game in a really cool way (though I would have liked more detail there) #also having auto language translators but they regularly don't translate quite right / still run into issues - realistic! #the parallels drawn between his being taken from his family and put in a state education school and Indigenous residential schools #the way that a future world will never be as separate from the past as ur average sff future often portrays #but yeah anyway lots of good ideas execution not so much for me..

I have learned that in order to teach this play here, where many student readers are Indigenous, I must maintain a keen awareness of the intergenerational trauma inflicted by the Canadian Indian Residential School program. The fact that Prospero abusively educates Caliban while insisting that he is treating him with “humane care” (1.2.415) in the play reminded us of the ways that some educators at Indian Residential Schools could be physically, sexually, and spiritually abusive while, at the same time, claiming that they were doing God’s work. How many of our parents, grandparents, and extended family members were treated like Caliban by people who, like Prospero, felt entitled to do so?

How To: Driver's License Training!

So a family member taught me to drive, not my father-we are too close for that. In turn, I have taught my sisters to drive streets and freeways. It came up that my cousin needed some help and I was back on the job again! I thought, this would make a great post for anyone wondering how to do this for your own loved one.

First off, you need to make them figure out what car they are going to be driving to take the test in (and after) and have them take their written and visual test. If they put in that much work, you know it is worth it to put in the effort for the last part of the process. They need a car that is working/checked up, insured, and registered. Then both you and them need to read the current version of the DMV handbook. Even if you read it before, laws change (usually for the worst).

Link: California Driver's Handbook - California DMV

Day 1: Basics

Go over the vehicle as the instructor will do on the day of the test. This includes: driver window, windshield, rearview mirror, brakes, parking brake, emergency flasher, seatbelts, permit/license, registration, insurance. This is a great time to go over RPM and MPH and the fuel tank.

Licensed driver should then take the streets to a local mall and find an empty area to teach the basics, explaining signs and traffic lines as you encounter them on the street.

Permit driver should take the driver seat, licensed driver should take the passenger. It should be established here, or even before, that the licensed driver is in control and should instructions not be followed the wheel will get grabbed.

Permit driver should adjust the seat and the rearview mirror so that they can see around the car at all times and remind them to use both their eyes and their mirrors.

From here start with going forward in Drive and backwards in reverse. Do some straight ways getting up to 15 miles per hour and work on turns. Reverse is a little bit tricky as you don't turn the wheel the way you think you need to reverse the car. Try pulling into parking spots and hugging the lines on both sides. Stops and minding where other cars/people are in relation to you.

A couple of hours goes a long way, licensed driver should switch back and get the permit driver and their vehicle back home. Permit driver should rest up as they will be tired.

Day 2: Residential

Confidence should be increased, and today is a good day to up the ante slightly and put those basics into action.

Licensed driver arrives at Permit Driver's home. Licensed driver drives the vehicle on streets, explaining anything pertinent on the way over. Licensed driver should have identified a good neighborhood with big streets and lots of side streets to go to the day before. (bonus if you can have another vehicle in front for the car to follow to gauge closeness, speed, etc.)

Once they are at their location they need to switch. Permitted driver needs to set the seat and mirrors up for them.

Then driver or guide car shows them to go 15-25 mph on the straight streets, to slow into turns and speed out of them, to stop (starting at the STOP letters) fully before the white line, four way stops, who has the right of way, turns and signaling your intent, checking your mirrors, parking against the curb, going back in a straight line against the curb.

It is a good idea to start on bigger streets and then also put in a little bit of time on the permitted driver's local streets. Go bigger to smaller. I would also use a map on your smart phone in a safe location in your car to get the permitted driver used to hands free guidance.

A couple of hours goes a long way, licensed driver should switch back and get the permit driver and their vehicle back home. Permit driver should rest up as they will be tired.

Day 3: Streets

If you got the parking lot down and the housing streets down, its time for the next big game-streets! Today is a good day for streets and gas tips.

Licensed driver arrives at Permit Driver's home. Licensed driver should pick a location that is far enough away to get experience on but also minimal street changes. I would suggest a Costco or Sam's Club.

Permitted driver would set up the seat and the mirror, licensed driver would set up the navigation with the destination.

Permitted driver should be talked to about pedestrians, signal types, lane types, car closeness, drive 25-40 MPH, speed limit vs flow of traffic, signs.

Once you arrive at the destination you should stretch out your legs and give both parties a break.

Before leaving I would fill up the car, explaining the MPG and Tank capacity before doing so. Guide the permitted driver through which side their tank is on, how to prep, how to do, and how to finish.

Permitted driver should drive back. All parties should rest.

Day 4: Freeway

From the lot to the housing to the streets, once you start its hard to stop. Freeways are fast streets, but scary none the less. This particular day could be split up into 3 days easily.

Licensed driver arrives at permitted drivers house. Licensed driver needs to research what freeways are nearby and plan a route.

Licensed driver needs to explain the process: licensed driver goes on to freeway, stays in exit lane, gets off on the next freeway exit, routes back to the house.

Licensed driver talks to the permitted driver as they did what they just explained.

Once back, permitted driver gets in the car and sets up the seat and mirrors.

Permitted driver repeats what the licensed driver just did.

Once back, permitted and licensed driver confer.

If they are comfortable, proceed with the next step.

Licensed driver explains the next step: drive onto freeway, merge one lane over, pass the next exit, merge back into exit lane, exit freeway, route back to the house.

Licensed driver talks to the permitted driver as they did what they just explained.

Once back, permitted driver gets in the car and sets up the seat and mirrors.

Permitted driver repeats what the licensed driver just did.

Once back, permitted and licensed driver confer.

If they are comfortable, proceed with the next step.

Licensed driver needs to explain the process: the licensed driver will pick a destination to reach by freeway and proceed, drive onto freeway, stay on freeway/change freeways as needed, get off of freeway. The permitted driver would replicate the trip back.

Licensed driver talks to the permitted driver as they head to the destination.

Once at the destination, the permitted driver switches places. The licensed driver talks to the permitted driver as they are guided by maps.

Once back, permitted and licensed driver confer.

Day 5: DMV Stalking

This is where you can kind of put it all together. If the permitted driver feels comfortable enough, book the test. If not, pick the location and scout it out first.

Licensed driver arrives at permitted drivers house. Permitted driver needs to pick a DMV location. Set up navigation and have the permitted driver head there.

Once there, carefully follow another person taking their test and see what streets they take, what actions they do, and the licensed driver should take notes.

Once you have the route identified and the actions noted, replicate the test.

Practice as much as you need to.

Day 6+: Practice

Book your test, you know you can do it. Once you do, get as much practice in as you can. Offer to drive someone for an errand, practice the test with a family member. DO IT. I would suggest practicing at night, popping the hood of the car, learning about maintenance.

Day 7: Your Driving Test

You know your stuff. Don't feel bad if you don't pass the first time, half of this is skill and the other half is luck in getting a decent tester. When you are licensed, celebrate with a road trip!

This pace can be adjusted per each persons ability to grip the necessary information on each particular day. While there is a difference between what passes the test and what is more important day to day, note the difference in what the person is learning. Based on what you use more in your day to day as a driver, what would you add to this? What would you have liked to learn when you were first starting out?

A competition on a property in Hokkaido, northern Japan, called for a house to enjoy the harsh cold. The forms and intersections of this thing make it feel more like a pavilion than a house, but with the solidity of something permanent.

Very mature for student work. Has the insansity (in a good way) of young persons work, with the craft and articulation of materials of someone more experienced. Apparently, they worked extensively on-site with the contractor while it was being built. Exactly as you should.

I wonder if it's still used. The hot bath seems incredible - I wonder if that fireplace in outside room B provides enough heat to be comfortable in the cold.

still generally not feeling very talkative and struggling sort of a lot at the moment (#disabled native) but my first thought when t&r day hit was "oh it's almost that time of year up til th*nksgiving where people will actually remember we exist lol". it's really laughable and really depressing to think about the fact that that's my first thought and surely the first thought of many indigenous people but really can we be blamed because we are virtually never discussed or paid attention to and whenever we are "paid attention to" (VERY much majorly by white people who have never met an indigenous person in their lives) it's to appropriate some part of our culture (dream catchers not sourced from actual n8vs, the weirdos who go around wearing the saddest attempts at regalia by halloween stores ive ever seen, d*sney pocahontas) or to make us out to be some wise spirit guide otherworldly entity or to be racist and weird (not that the prior two things aren't racist and weird but we're talking people who are like "yeah lets call this sports team a slur"). and so many bipoc have to grasp at these straws aka periods of the year where the white people who are only interested in pretending to care for a few days will see it because hell even that will at least get our messages SOMEWHERE, even if it's not out of a genuine care, hopefully to people who WILL care. it's really fucked up idk is it that hard to think of us throughout the year? i'm not saying you have to break your back doing it but indigenous people and bipoc in general shouldn't have to wait all year gathering shit to present that could have been at least talked about and outraged about more all year If People Had Listened To Us. sorry for the long ass post but it makes me nauseous especially knowing it will be the exact same this year

#still feeling utter shit struggling w education and in and out of doctors appointments and family matters #but this just makes me so angry #its always been about white people and it always is and yet some have the nerve to pretend bipoc are trying to take over everything or wtv #not like i was taught by age 3 for my own safety that people might hate me and be violent towards me for being native #not like our kids were being murdered en masse in residential schools #not like th*nksgiving is the day of a massacre #but your kids are too young to know about racism i guess.

Late post, but days like this are hard. Today is the national day for truth and reconciliation in Canada. Otherwise known as orange shirt day. It’s a day or remembrance. A day to recognize and honour the victims and survivors of residential schools, and all the children stolen from us who never made it home.

Wakathahión:ni Kanien’kehá:ka niwakenwenhtsió:ten (My clan is Wolf and I am from the Mohawk Nation). My family is from Wahta, but I am currently living on the unceded ancestral lands of the Beothuk and Mi’kmaq peoples. Today is a day I spend thinking of my ancestors and my relations. And it’s a day we encourage non-Indigenous peoples living on Indigenous land to educate themselves on the history of that land, and of the people who live there. A day where we encourage you to learn about the TRC’s 94 calls to action. And if you are able —and willing— to, there are many Indigenous organizations that would benefit from donations to support their programs and ongoing battles to protect Mother Earth.

One I can think of off the top of my head is Unist’ot’en camp, who ensure that food, water, and medical supplies are available for land defenders, and who make sure elders have the materials they need to continue their traditions and teachings.

Niá:wen (thank you) for taking the time to read this.

#penguinsomething #personal #truth and reconciliation #honestly I’m gonna post this and log off bc I’m not in an emotional state to deal with educating more than this atm #fyi we’re at an estimated 6000+ unmarked graves #and there are still ~100 residential schools to be searched. #indigenous
