Glad I decided not to make a traditional Christmas dinner. We have very little water pressure due to frozen pipes all over the City.
I'm grateful we have heat and power. Very worried about #Buffalo #WesternNY and the #PineRidgeReservation .

A lot of hardship today, in the aftermath of the #blizzard—a lot of #hardship everyday on #reservations.

We help as we can right now, but it’s important to remember that that living situation – surviving, not living – is the result of ongoing #injustice. Support #LandBack and other struggles for Indigenous liberation, and if you can spare a little money to #help in the short term, it’s sorely needed. Even if you can just spare $1, that combines with what others give, and it’s our collective power that can save lives.

GG: "You just called this The Treat game. But isn't that just a cute cover-up for The Shell Game? You're going to palm the treats, aren't you?"

Sue gave me a ride to the #chiropractor in Woodbury, #Minnesota this afternoon. It was kind of her because #parkinsonsdisease was rearing its ugly head. Sue and GG stayed in the waiting room. Sue said GG behaved perfectly the entire time. #dogs #rescuedogsofmastodon #rescuedogs #PineRidgeReservation

The Lakota people are some of the kindest people I've ever had the honor of meeting. The powerful experiences I've been able to share will forever be imprinted in my soul.
