Huh. For some reason I can’t upload photos. It gives me an error.
Going to speak in Bergen on intersectional feminism
And I’m exhausted already x_x
NO.
now is NOT the time to tell people not to criticize Biden. look at what he is doing for #Gaza after almost half a million #Uncommitted votes during these #primaries.
NOW IS THE TIME TO PUSH DEMOCRATS, TO THE LEFT AS HARD AS WE CAN.
Protests work.
Democrats need to be the #antifascist party, not the party of meeting the fascists in the middle.
now is the time for all democrats to act like members of an antifascist party and not as just the opposition.
@kvalenagle @gullvinge thank you! Getting reacquainted with how this platform works.
It’s 2am and I’m thinking: how the frick do I summarise my life the past year?!
It’s legit been like a movie. Or a soap opera. @.@;
Oh, and I need to find a place to sleep in Oslo. I’m going for round … how many? If Fosen activism things in the capital.
@forteller thank you! I didn’t realise it’d been a full year. Whew @.@ I’m happy tho, this place is cosy
…I forgot this place existed. I’ve missed it tbh so hi! I’m back ☺️🌸
yes, hi
i exist.
i want to write down how things were the past weeks, but now i've come down with a cold.
Norway’s apologies to Sámi people ring hollow.
We’re not going anywhere.
Indigenous rights are not optional.
Jeg håper inderlig at regjeringa tar til vettet, slik at det er mulig å ha tillit til at vi fortsatt bor i en rettsstat.
Jeg jobber med flerminoritetsrettigheter. Når jeg ser hvordan staten Norge behandler det samiske folket, blir jeg alvorlig bekymret.
Hvordan skal den norske staten klare å opprettholde, verne om og ivareta, alle andre minoritetsrettigheter?
Slik det ser ut i denne saken, virker det som at man trener på å undertrykke det samiske folket, se hva man kommer seg unna med – og videreføre det til andre minoriteter.
Beæra over at folk crowdfunda turen min.
Mest rørt ble jeg av støtta fra Aurora Kobernus, en 25-årig ME-sjuk miljøaktivist som holdes i helsefengsel på Ullern. Hun kjemper for livet der inne.
Det er viktig for henne at jeg drar. Satt litt på gjerdet fram til jeg fikk den meldinga der.
Aurora har ordna funkisprogrammet til MDG. Vi var i Repparfjord samtidig.
On my way to Oslo to hang out outside Ministry of Petroleum and Energy.
In support of Sámi land rights.
Sámi rights are threatened throughout the Nordic Countries.
Land theft and suppression of self-determination.
We're still here.

@gaski @forteller @jullan Hey nice. Vi skravla om språktags for skjermlesere og nu skjedde det. :D glad!
Når du velger hvilket språk du poster en tut på kan du nå velge sør-samisk og lule-samisk, hvis serveren din kjører Mastodon 4.1 (som feks tutoteket gjør). Kult!
so like
despite talking about it all weekend
all the rants and educational threads and responses i've posted
none of them actually state my actual *opinion*
which both deeply amuses and frustrates me
all those words, all this time
and yet, no clarity on what my actual feelings are -- publicly, anyhow.
solely because doing so again compromises my irl safety.
furthermore, the statement in combination with how virality works doesn't open up for much intra-community discussion that's publicly available
which to me is the most irritating thing
because there's a breadth of voices throughout sápmi, experiences interweaving to different takes and perspectives.
and i end up sounding like this is the epitome of bad and i am thoroughly irritated about it
i'm not, not really.
like, yeah - i think the sámi council's statement is wonderful for the clarity it has.
it draws a line. here, no further.
but is it a good introduction to sámi peoples' existence?
no. it assumes some base knowledge of our presence and our issues, which the vast majority of people do not have
it's also worded in a way where it seems we're all equal levels of pissed off. which is also untrue.
the main thing occupying my mentions all weekends have been the reddit thread on regalia appropriation, and my twitter mentions blew up
and yet there is no room for public nuance nor criticisms
because any and all perceptions "weakness" opens up the possibility for misuse and further misrepresentation, or to attempts at my safety.
