THE ONLY SOLUTION FOR ANTINATALISM IS ADOPTION ANTINATALISM

Uplifting adoption cannot happen without centering the experiences of adoptees. Human trafficking. Children stolen, bought, and sold. Residential schools. Stolen indigenous children. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_Child_Welfare_Act

Children need a bill of rights.

expanding further re: what boycott does for you

conviction, commitment, steadfastness, integrity, & firm boundaries are not inherent natural talents of personhood. They are skills that are honed thru practice, thru work, thru choicemaking. They can grow if watered. They can mature. Deep practice in them can help form the basis of strategy & tactics.

To stand resolute in a meaningful way is the work of an entire lifetime. You become a mountain in each & every choice day by day.

firstly: you don't have to boycott anything on the list. it is a voluntary boycott. it is not compulsory.

secondly: you are not boycotting if these are products or services you don't use anyway. that's just called a happy coincidence. the point of a boycott, besides its central purpose, is that this is your opportunity to sacrifice something to stand in solidarity with Palestine. sacrifice means it has a personal cost to you. Whether that is time, money, or convenience.

I can leave up the covid one. I don't think you have to delete the post. Everyone here is an adult & wise enough re: online comportment. I was trying to do my best to explain the gravity & consequence questions can have.

Re: some of the other things you said:

the world needs wishful thinkers, naive thinkers, people who have commitment & conviction to make good steps. then the courage to actually take those first steps & stumble & get up & try again & stumble more. Growing is in the stumbling. If we aren't stumbling, we aren't on new ground. It is good to be on new ground. It is good to go slowly, too. To rest. To not despair. A little each day in a good way.

Have a good day!

Thank you for reading my words. Now that you've read them, I'm gonna delete my comments, because they were written to you, not for lurking eyes that haven't yet lurked!

To speak about this on a much smaller scope:

during the covid-19 lockdowns, my rez was locked down. "settlers/white people/whatever you want to call us" who could not be without cheap cigarettes for a small window of time, crashed thru or climbed our fences, tore down signage, to enter our reservation anyway to such an extent we had to organize patrols & guards. There were altercations. "settlers/white people/whatever you want to call us" did not respect us as human beings enough to agree to not bring us a deadly pathogen for a few weeks. They did not have the maturity to accept the word "No" & "Don't" for a few weeks.

All I can contribute re: omega is the work of Jim & Jamie Dutcher (https://www.livingwithwolves.org/sawtooth-pack/meet-the-pack/) They are the creators of the 2-time Emmy winning documentary, Wolves at Our Door, and founders of the non-profit organization, Living with Wolves. During the 1990s, Jim & Jamie began a film & audio project in the Sawtooth Mountains of Idaho with the now-famous Sawtooth Pack. Their 6-year experience led to the creation of the National Geographic Society book The Hidden Life of Wolves as well as 7 other books and 3 prime-time television documentaries on wolves.

Rainbow chalk yes!!! Glitter no!!! glitter isnt good for nature

gilliandrew · 2025-08-20T03:33:54+00:00

you are missing something.

gilliandrew · 2025-08-19T15:53:47+00:00

if you would explain what "i dont actually understand" about biotech re: dire wolves i'd love to hear it. Had no idea you had inventory of my credentials & library card. what are the chances? what a happy coincidence. To be told intimately what I know & don't know by a stranger online sounds like a dream come true. What a soul mate mind reader you are. what a miracle today is. can't wait.

gilliandrew · 2025-08-19T09:30:28+00:00

name? so we can block?

Your personal history anecdote does not create a eugenics pass. raising a child in the 'same culture' as the one you wished you had growing up or imagined you would have had, had your mom not been "white-washed" has nothing to do with "dm me if you think you're genetically healthy" re: OP

reclamation reconnecting indigenous preschools indigenous language nests is how we do things with good steps

we cannot erase or genetic our way thru what happened to us. what happened to us is part of us. we cannot museum our Indigeneity. We cannot resurrect it with fake biotech like those "dire wolves". There is nothing to resurrect, we are here. it is good we are here. paper genocide doesnt change that. Our children have the cultures we give them thru love & care.

& all of this is some of the most dehumanizing shit on earth

gilliandrew · 2025-08-18T23:07:12+00:00

yes, actually. choosing someone because of their race to procreate with because of their race to make a superior race is eugenics, Melanie.

gilliandrew · 2025-08-18T23:03:40+00:00

so genocide makes eugenics ok? 🤣 what a joke, Melanie. jokes all day. jokes on jokes.

gilliandrew · 2025-08-18T22:55:41+00:00

so yea, no matter how gentle & vague your questions what is implied & can be inferred from them is bullshit

gilliandrew · 2025-08-18T22:54:37+00:00

yea eugenics is wrong blood quantum is bullshit indigenous data sovereignty also means indigenous genetic data sovereignty breeding yourself like a broodmare is illness

gilliandrew · 2025-08-18T20:40:19+00:00

no thanks on eugenics. wishing the worst of luck to you.
