Happy Ndn New Year

I was in bed, reading before sleep, and a nut fell into my ear.

I was in bed. A nut fell. And fell into my ear.

I have so many questions.

PSA: don’t sew your beadwork to your beading pillow.

I got wonderful teaching reviews and for next semester, I'm seeing a lot of returning students - many are not #anthropology majors and don't 'need' to take my unit. So I'm either doing really well or I'm an easy mark/er. Answer depends on my self esteem for the day. #AcademicMatters
Another one done. A couple years ago, I made a wáwya bag and was inspired to make a necklace. The #wáwya is the symbol for counting coup and it’s surrounded by the #MedicineWheel. A simple design but I love that blue.

I've created a small, incomplete, list of instances with moderators of color.

The list and suggestions became to much to keep up on my own, so here is a Google document, https://docs.google.com/document/d/12pTmSMpq8lMYyYlHT25DgTmdMmE6ysUyRHGiq-E4XdQ/edit?usp=sharingp

New Copy of Fediverse instances with moderators of color

This initially started out as a post but I am offline more than online, so cannot keep up this list. This is why anybody can edit the document. The original is hidden, but I'd encourage you all to make a wiki based on the below instances and information. Hosting your own wiki. For a fully mana...

The annual “stock up on coffee before you run out and have to buy it at Christmas and it takes forever because the post is backlogged” coffee order. Five kilos of highland Cairns coffee goodness. #Coffee #QueenslandCoffee #CoffeeIsGood

This one will go down as the most bizarre one to date. I don’t know if I like it but I definitely don’t hate it. It’s a study in reds and blues, corals and turquoise, land and sea and the design had a mind of its own.

This is really funny. This looks like I’ve used purple beads but it’s just a gradation from blue to red that creates the illusion of purple. Can you see it in this photo? In real life, it’s really pronounced. #beading #beadwork #ColourMixingWithBeads
