Land acknowledgements feel diluted if folks are just reading off of a generic script and have the audacity to mispronounce the tribal nation’s name in doing so. 🚩🚩🚩

@Jarrette_Werk @Walmart @najournalists Fit on point! 💯

Life update: my best friend of 14 years and I said “I do” and had our wedding reception in St. Michaels, AZ, where I grew up. It was nizhóní.

Shoutout to T&R Market for baking this DELICIOUS cake. 💯

Another shoutout for my son’s No Face shirt. #mood

All of my plans have been canceled since Tears of the Kingdom came out. I shall emerge when summer is over… maybe. 🧚‍♂️🪲🌿

Sweet gifts from my partner and our yazh for Mother’s Day. New treasure added to the record collection. Lovely plants. And Legend of Zelda hand puppets that crack me up. 🖤

Now onto some more exploring on Tears of the Kingdom. 🎮

Big news for the boss man. 🥹 ‘Ahxéhee’ for all that you have done and advocated for here at ASU @BryanBrayboy. Wouldn’t have found my belonging if it weren’t for you.

[Northwestern SESP @sesp_nu]

Want to go home for a nap but forgot I paid for parking at ASU. 😑 Guess I’m stuck here til 11:59 p.m. The cost of parking is no joke here.

… I think this calls for a cot in my office. (Don’t read this, Dr. Brayboy.)

[Taylor Notah-Parkhurst @Taylor_Notah]

An elevator full of Indians. I feel like there’s a joke in here somewhere. 🤔 #PeoplesPlacesPossibilities #FirstFloorPlease

My partner and I stocked up on dog food/treats & fed rez pubbies we came across in Window Rock, Fort Defiance, Hunter’s Point & Chinle. While all of them were very cute, my grandma’s dog was perhaps the most photogenic. 📸🐶🤎

The best part of returning home is exploring. 🕷️🖤📸

The moment I start reading a book, I get sleepy. Whoever has my voodoo doll, stop it.

📖✨ “A Carnival of Snackery: Diaries (2004-2020)” by David Sedaris
