Somehow, maybe with the bustle of life right now, I forgot to share a huge huge thing...

Because VISIBILITY matters.

Inevitably some ja****le will holler "I don't have a problem with gay people. I've got gay friends. I just don't want it shoved in my face."

Good news! Folks have a CHOICE!

They can CHOOSE to attend and celebrate the happiness of their "gay friends" connecting with their community... or they can stay home.

Either way, nothing is being "shoved" in any faces. We gather to celebrate ourselves, our challenges, our joys, and make new friends.

Hope to see you there!!! 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️

HAPPY GLBTQIA MONTH!!!!

Y'all aren't listening, so one more time...

Burning white sage (smudging) is a CLOSED PRACTICE. More specifically it is a CLOSED indigenous practice.

Point blank - If you are not indigenous, or have not been *directly gifted* the knowledge to use it correctly - it is APPROPRIATION!!!

Stop doing it. Claiming anglo-european paganism as some kind of justification is just wilfully ignorant.

Obtaining it from Amazon and similar non-indigenous sources is literally stealing this sacred medicine out of indigenous hands, and depleting an endangered, limited crop. These "businesses" are sweatshoping it by paying highly vulnerable individuals low wages to steal it from where indigenous people would source it naturally and traditionally.
