I saw the Lakota thing on LJ yesterday (courtesy of David Schwartz, actually, for those who remember him)--it's more of a political stunt than anything else, so far as I can tell. Russell Means has no actual political status in any Indian nation, he's an activist. None of the actual Lakota tribal councils have spoken out in favor of this secession.

As a result, it's... well, it's just people mouthing off. You might as well have me and Lee announce that California is seceding. Which is not to say that the tribes haven't been shafted, but I kind of expect we'd have heard about it before now, because the tribes would have been doing the democratic thing and talking about it endlessly for months first.

Oh, and Scrappy? Your niece is rude. I think you should be glad she's not going to be living with you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

This book looks really cool. I mean, the photos look terribly cheesy, but I think they can't not. As a reference, though, it's making me lusty, and I haven't drawn in forever.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

Saw Gracie! She was unimpressed with Santa, but lori took lots of pics of her completely ignoring him.

I got some shots of her with a gingerbread cookie man almost as big as she is.

SO CUTE!

ita, you haven't been drawing? That's not right I like your stuff a lot. You should draw more. In that copious free time I'm sure you have.

not your mom's socks.

truth. I've just read too much Vine Deloria and remember other secessions to get really roused. Though if anyone deserves good results from any political action, I would say the Tribes do.

Just call me "Siouxsie Shunshine".

Finally home...

I'm too tired to enjoy this first evening of Winter Break. Husband just gave me a glass of wine, I'll probably be dead to the world by 10. At least there is no alarm for tomorrow!

My gingerbread cookie/gracie pics didn't come out! They're frozen or something!

Here's one of me and the bean: [link]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

What a great picture! Although I was kind of distracted by your pretty hair, makeup, and cleave.
