"Eliza doesn’t say that she worries about Anne, all alone, so young, without her, wherever she may be. That for a long time she lay awake at night, whispering her name, just in case she was listening, from wherever she was, in case the sound of Eliza’s voice was a comfort to her. The pain of wondering if Anne was distressed somewhere and that she, Eliza, was unable to hear her, unable to reach her." 7 hours, 50 min ago

"Don’t give me your tenets & laws. Don’t give me your lukewarm gods. I want an accounting with all three cultures - white, Mexican, Indian. I want the freedom to carve & chisel my own face, to staunch the bleeding with ashes, to fashion my own gods from my entrails. And if going home is denied, then I stand and stake my space, una cultura mestiza, with my own lumber, my own bricks, & my own feminist architecture." Nov 09, 2025 07:07PM

“If you’re reading this and work in private insurance or the American government, fuck off and fuck you, forever. In the words of David Lynch, “Fix your hearts or die.”

Silvia Moreno-Garcia
“Why? Because to imagine Indigenous intelligence and power would have been unthinkable. We are all taught to despise the whiff of darkness, of Indigenous blood and of Blackness. We speak about ‘bettering the race,’ and by that we mean injecting more European blood into our veins. What Wilhelm said wasn’t considered outrageous at the time. It’s not even outrageous now, sadly.”
Silvia Moreno-Garcia, Silver Nitrate

Kai Bird
“No one can be certain of Oppenheimer’s reaction had he learned that on the eve of the Hiroshima bombing, the president knew the Japanese were “looking for peace,” and that the military use of atomic bombs on cities was an option rather than a necessity for ending the war in August. But we do know that after the war he came to believe that he had been misled, and that this knowledge served as a constant reminder that it was henceforth his obligation to be skeptical of what he was told by government officials.”
Kai Bird, American Prometheus: THE INSPIRATION FOR 'OPPENHEIMER', WINNER OF 7 OSCARS, INCLUDING BEST PICTURE, BEST DIRECTOR AND BEST ACTOR
