THE CUISINE QUEEN

Hey I keep seeing the term "lolcowing" thrown around as if it's just a good time or even morally good and I need you know, from the bottom of my heart, that everyone ever branded that did not deserve the treatment they got and everyone who harassed them were awful.

“I had time to run home and pack a bag and get to the beach where the boats were waiting,” said a member of Namaygoosisagagun First Nation (Collins). “We literally had minutes to get on the boats and flee before it took our town. “Once we left my house finally after packing what I could in a pack sack, the fire was right behind our place. We had to run to the beach and once we got there, it was only moments before the fire had jumped over the (train) track and was coming for us.”

it has since been confirmed that namaygoosisagagun first nation has completely burnt to the ground. if you would like to help the community navigate an ongoing crisis, i urge you to donate to the anishinabek nation 7th generation, a registered charity seeking to improve the lives of first nations people. donations are going directly to members of namaygoosisagagun first nation.

I might translate this article later today. This one was the most complete one, even in Italian news it's not talked about that much.

There are SIX questions total in reblogs, the end will be marked by large green text. If you don’t see all six, check reblogs and grab the version with the ending note.

Answers amended from the 2025 census based on feedback. If you’re mixed, choose what feels right to you I’m not here to do phrenology or paper bag test you but don’t make it my problem either. When in doubt, ask yourself: would the whites kill you too in the race war?

This census is US-centric because so is tumblr, unfortunately. This poll is also starting with a heavy Black/racialized bias due to my personal followers. The main point of this census is to see how white-dominant the site is currently compared to prior years, as well

For the purpose of this census, Imperial Core will be defined as the following: United States, Canada, Australia, Aotearoa, basically all of Western Europe, Japan, and Israel. If you want to argue about any of these designations, too bad maybe they should stop colonizing.

Note for clarification:

*For those who don’t know, TMA means transmisogyny affected (such as trans women, some non-binary people, etc.) whereas TME means transmisogyny exempt (Cis men, cis women, transmasculine individuals, etc). If you want to ask for clarification for which applies to you for the purposes of this poll, feel free to ask and I’ll try to reply, but if you try to argue or quibble about the terms themselves, I’ll block you.

The whole metaverse can no longer be properly viewed without an account and I am definitely not making one just to see your contact info or opening hours.

“Everything is thrifted: Kapital denim overall that's too big for me to wear as overalls, but work really well as denim chaps when cinched at the waist with my belt. The belt is made by myself. My jeans I found in a thrift shop with no name or tag attached – but clearly made with a lot of love. The top is a Kapital indigo dyed kimono jacket. The shoes are Onitsuka Tiger. I've been a preschool teacher for the last 5 years, and I take a lot of inspiration from the kids themselves and a little bit of Magic School Bus. I try to combine making fuctional wearable art with things that make the kids in my school smile and feel inspired to be a little weird and out there. I used to show up in suits and ties – and then one day one of my students showed up in a full Clifford outfit and it shook my core. What was I even doing, haha? So now I try to stretch imaginations with a lot of thrifted pieces or handmade things by my wife and I.”

They released an album too! I don't think this song is on it but the rest of their stuff is SO GOOD !!

further context: there is no indication that anyone at all was antagonizing the bison; the teenage boys mentioned just "scattered when the bison charged." in fact the photographer "said every visitor he observed in the park Friday, including McDaniel and his grandson, were keeping a “respectful distance” from the animal, and had done nothing to provoke it to charge." bison was probably agitated because of mating season. there is also no indication that the grandfather was playing hero - "The grandson was able to escape using some fancy footwork, but McDaniel was a sitting duck as the bison charged at him, hooking him with his left horn near his hip before flipping him some eight feet into the air."

Very important context to understand is that this time of year is rut for bison which leads to heightened aggression and agitation in bulls. The bison entered camp already pissed off, in my opinion the truck driving by is what triggered it to charge. Either way, everyone's take away should be that ultimately there is no "safe" distance when it comes to wild animals. Especially large ones. A bison can run 40 mph, being 100 yards away is not going to mean anything to it if it really wants to charge you.

Instead the best thing you can do in a place where may encounter large animals (or small ones) is learn how to avoid or prevent dangerous situations. This means learning seasonal or hormonal behavorial changes like rut or a mother with its baby. Learning body language, what the recommended safe distances are and when to really back off. Learn what to do if the animal becomes aggressive or territorial towards you. Learn what to do if it begins charging, approaching, stalking, chasing or attacking you. If you need something like bear spray, or to make yourself bigger, make noise etc.
