Taino Youth & Elders Day 10/13/2025
YouTube video by Ra Jikotea Niaku'no Taino Youth & Elders Day 10/13/2025

It was an honor to be a part of Wuru Taíno’s “Taíno Youth and Elders Day.” It was a great opportunity to acquire wisdom from an elder and nurture connections to my ancestral heritage.

Nud1ty in art is celebrated. Why not in life?

We admire the nud3 in paintings, sculptures, and galleries.
It’s called art.
But when it comes to real bodies, we call it shame.

The truth?
The human body has always been art—yours included.

I love it! You looked great. I wanted to start incorporating the paints into my life but am not sure where to start searching for info.

Just a reminder: I am not going to be updating this account with anything substantive, because Bluesky's new TOS is one gigantic red flag with a dog whistle attached. I'm on Signal, ComicFury, Substack (email list) and my websites if you wish to continue following my adventures. Check pin for info.

The more we hide, the heavier the shame becomes.
Naturism reminds us that our bodies are not something to cover in fear, but to live in with pride.
When we step out of hiding , clothes, judgments, and shame, we discover the freedom of simply being ourselves. 🌿✨

🌿 Nature doesn’t judge your shape, scars, or age. The sun warms every skin the same, the ocean welcomes all. It’s people who learned to compare and shame. Maybe it’s time we remembered nature’s lesson: acceptance over judgment. #BodyAcceptance #Naturism

I think it's interesting that people sometimes get weird when I describe my spiritual gifts as schizophrenia and feel like I'm deprecating myself. Truly, schizophrenia is just a word that describes spiritual and creative gifts, so it's not an issue. The issue is the marginalization of schizophrenia.

"War Against All Puerto Ricans: Revolution and Terror in America's Colony" by Nelson A. Denis

I just finished #reading this #book:
#WarAgainstAllPuertoRicans by #NelsonADenis
Really a #history of the #PuertoRican Nationalist movement of the 20th century. It's a great, important read. Everyone should #read it. A good compliment to #JorellMeléndez-Badillo 's book on #PuertoRico.

Can someone explain what’s happening? I looked up the game but found no news regarding any controversy.

“The practice of observing the living world and taking inspiration for human ways of living from its model is an essential element of Indigenous science. It embraces the reality that there are intelligences other than our own, from whom we might learn.”

Can we end to the myth about how the Spanish conquered the naive and peaceful Taino people with just 50 men and almost no resistance?

Read this thread, because it enrages me that this load of crap continues to be disseminated. Thanks to @trishymouse.bsky.social for questioning it and asking me.🧵

From a place of ignorance and wanting to learn, what would be needed to constitute one?

The best way to learn allegedly dead languages and keep them alive is to actually use them in everyday speech. If you can translate this mess, congratulations! It's written in GTB, but if you speak/read Taíno-borikenaíki, you may be able to figure it out. 🤩

Really enjoying seeing it online. Slightly ashamed I didn’t go, but the Brevard sheriff’s comments were… concerning, to say the least.

🎵🐸 Taino Girl and Coqui 🐸🎵

The coqui frog, native to Puerto Rico, has always been part of my culture. Hearing their songs is like a lullaby to relax and reconnect with nature.

Please respect our singing frogs and do not harm them.
