@technomancy I feel like i've asked this question 100 times but is there a way to do like, long-strings (not the right term but lol whatever) in fennel? lua has [[this stuff]] and honestly fennel not having long-strings seems to be the only reason I have to touch lua ever

A lot of non-Indigenous people around the world are struggling to handle the information coming out of Canada about the residential school program.Below is a list of resources for learning about the program and closely related topics.While the unmarked graves may be a shock to many, that is because of the systemic erasure of Indigenous peoples and their voices. It is the intention of the social order to hide this information, and so incumbent on its members to educate themselves. The resources below are *first steps*. There is so much more to learn, and people are bringing new stories every day, because the ethnocide, and resistance against it, still continue each day.----https://www.cbc.ca/books/48-books-by-indigenous-writers-to-read-to-understand-residential-schools-1.6056204http://www.trc.ca/assets/pdf/Volume_4_Missing_Children_English_Web.pdfhttps://legacyofhope.ca/wherearethechildren/stories/https://newlinesmag.com/first-person/the-suffering-of-canadas-indigenous-people/https://www.coursera.org/learn/indigenous-canadahttp://www.groundworkforchange.org/https://thelocal.to/issue-11/https://riic.ca/https://deyen.ca/https://briarpatchmagazine.com/issues/view/september-october-2020https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFgNI1lfe0Ahttps://www.thecanadianencyclopedia.ca/en/article/residential-schoolshttps://talonbooks.com/books/they-called-me-number-onehttps://www.aupress.ca/books/120260-my-decade-at-old-sun-my-lifetime-of-hell/https://www.aupress.ca/books/120260-my-decade-at-old-sun-my-lifetime-of-hell/https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/2201473X.2021.1935574https://nctr.ca/education/teaching-resources/education-resources/-----The work of non-Indigenous people now is to share these voices among yourselves (boost this post), and figure out your own relationships to these events. How does your life intersect with the foster care system, the prison complex, the theft of indigenous land? Those answers can't come from a book, but books can be great tools for finding them.-----Working to help settler-colonials educate themselves is labour, and doing it now feels extra heavy. Consider giving:https://ko-fi.com/emsennhttps://cash.app/$emsenn0(To those who have kept your recurring donations active even though I haven't been posting: thank you! That's been my grocery money as I get back on my feet after the recent displacement.)

Watch this. Work to understand it. Talk about it with your associates that you need to.I have been called genocidal by white leftists in the Fediverse who now advocate for Leninist land reform, and I see their posts boosted by folk who should know better by know.So watch this. Learn better, know better, do better.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TZaOCR-mUm8"Why should white leftists, who are clearly still enamored with white supremacy, be able to go to Black and Indigenous spaces and demand a solidarity to a movement that is not extending a jot of solidarity to them?..."For the left-wing white supremacist, solidarity is not the neccesity to support your comrade in their liberation, but the demand to subordinate them to yours... and if Black people have the gall to disagree, then they're denounced as wanting to genocide white people."Decolonization for these settlers, these left-wing settlers, was limited to the metaphorical sphere, and solidarity couldn't be extended to anything as materially dangerous to white supremacy and settler-colonialism as LandBack..."Solidarity is extended right to the point it begins to challenge settler-colonial social relations, and then the moment it does - that solidarity is renounced, and the denunciations begin..."We see this so clearly with [white people] in the online left, who claim to support decolonization up to the point at which it unsettles their position in society, up to the point it unsettles their whiteness, at which point they begin to aggressively delegitimize it, while trying to subordinate the struggles of Black and Indigenous liberation to their white supremacist, left, social movement."This is not solidarity with the wretched of the earth. This is an attempt to maintain white supremacy."

yall block me if i say youre demands for student loan forgiveness don't inherently situate you against whiteness so maybe you'll listen to a white person say it.(For real, feel free to just lift the quotes and link and repost this OP, if you're white. We both know that'll get more folk to listen.)

Are you aware of the Indigenous-led protests outside the White House that have been occurring daily since Indigenous Peoples Day on the 11th? There's been more than 400 arrests, some violence from police, but in asking folk, I realized literally no one around me knows that there's essentially an Indigenous-led, climate-focused, Occupy, in DC, right now.

I think I'm gonna call it: the big shift in framing after COP26 is going to be into "the race to..." carbon neutral, or net zero, or whatever. Space Race nationalist propaganda that'll have us jovially competing with Western nations and viciously threatened by others.The framing will move from existential threat to the norm of progress into the future, and this'll limit the advantage radicals have in leveraging climate change.With statists re-focused on doing better than others, not doing well enough to survive, the pot is back off the heat for a bit. They want things simmering, not rolling - don't wanna break the sauce!

Just gonna toss these images here, so there is no confusion about what is really going on in this "race" between the West and the Other.Also, heard from COP26, the EU increased funding for its border patrol by 2300% in, like, the last decade.
