Kwira! Music, Culture, Land
MexiFinn born on Tongva land. I play upright electric bass, baritone ukulele, various wooden flutes, and sing. Learning and sharing Rarámuri ra’icha, the language of my Indigenous ancestors—ne anayáwarira.

This is amazing. DHS bought a warehouse in a city called Social Circle, Georgia. When the city council asked DHS how they planned to use the warehouse, DHS refused to answer.
So, the city cut off water and sewer services and put a lock on the water meter, and said that services will remain off “until ICE indicates how water and sewer to the facility will be served without exceeding the limited infrastructure capacity.”
Outstanding. We need more of this! This is how we stop fascism.
California Flute Revival LOI #1: submitted
Rarámuri chats: peeps aren’t showing up, boo!
We’ll get there. I remember being at pro-gay marriage rallies in Los Angeles and being outnumbered by Prop 8 supporters. Where are those supporters now? Shutting the fuck up, that’s where.
Submitting the California Flute Revival flute proposal tomorrow.
My Rarámuri server chat was a no-show, though. Maybe everyone is busy surviving a drug war in Mexico and Trump in the USA. Take care, nijé comaali.
My kid mentioned that Afghanistan and Pakistan are in outright war a few days ago. I was like what? To see which Taliban is better? But it’s true. Anyhow, I blame the British, Russians, USAnians and the European crusaders.
oh hey, kwira bá, my Indigenous brethren! Well, I my mouth wrote a few Indigenous checks and now my Indigenous butt has to cash ‘em:
I’m hosting TWO monthly Rarámuri voice chats. Fourth Fridays and Second Sundays. Yes, I wanted to be alliterative.
I’m…writing a grant…to help revive the California Native Flute. This is the endblown elderberry flute used by most tribal nations in CA.
I must love this shit, right? Hoyaa! I need a break—gotta watch 0jibweMan

Folks, I just found an entire hate t shirt shop in Bulgaria. Help needed to report these fux.
They killed Saddam, we got ISIS
They killed Bin Laden, we got the Taliban back and women being even more oppressed than before.
They killed Khamenei, and keep bombing schools and prisons were leftists and women are.
I mourn none of these men. But messianic narcissist self-appointed paladins aren't there to liberate anyone. They kill these dictators because they are competitors in the oppression game.
