A quick wit and humour are the only lens through which life makes sense. Very Indigenously minding my own business in Saskatchewan, Canada. ๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ฆ I spend my free time reading and watching old black and white movies.

The Sixties Scoop took over 11,000 Indigenous children from their homes to live with non-Indigenous families from 1960โ€“1990. Saskatchewan piloted a program called AIM, the Adopt Indian and Mรฉtis Project.

Folk musician Raven Reid was adopted as part of AIM.

You will never watch someone struggle against all the powers of creation like watching a 13 yr old boy try and read a novel he has no interest in reading. ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ

The time has come to take apart My snowblower and repair it.

Me: life is about frequency, energy, and intention. Once you figure that out youโ€™ll stop getting in your own way.

13: what do you even mean? You sound crazy.

Me: itโ€™ll make sense someday. Hopefully while youโ€™re still building, and not during a second or third rebuild. ๐Ÿคฃ

13: would you still love me if I was gay?

Me: without question. But if you EVER tell me you want to quit school to become a rapper, we are going to physically fight, and you will lose.

If youโ€™re going to DM a complete stranger at least make it interesting.

How aboutโ€ฆ

Would you rather always have super slow internet or low phone battery?

Or

Would you rather take an erotic yoga class with your mother in law, or always have a UTI?

Thatโ€™s interesting and worthy of a reply.

Watching some Rider football on Friday night with a glass of Diet Pepsi and the popcorn machine going.

Sometimes people make happiness and contentment far too complicated when it should be this simple. lol

Boss: Can I speak to you a minute?

Me: Yes, of course. I wanted to speak to you as well. It may solve both our problems. There is a loud snoring noise coming out of my computer intermittently through out the day.

Know what really made me wonder about where I chose to incarnate?

Raggedy Ann and Andy. This shit was terrifying and I think the sheer utter fear of those books brought me online and sparked my self awareness, and I realized I was in the worst timeline. lol

My niece is three years old.

She tells me Iโ€™m her best friend.
