#HappyThanksgiving everyone in #BellinghamWA and in particular on our #SubduedSocial Mastodon instance. In recognition that we live on the ancestral lands of our neighbors the #Lummi, #Nooksack, and other #CoastSalish peoples, I made another voluntary #LandTax donation to the Lhaq'temish Foundation equivalent to 10% of our hosting costs and domain registration fees over the past 6 months.

It's Treaty Day here in #BellinghamWA (home of subdued.social), where we recall the January 22, 1855 treaty between the United States and the native nations such as the #Lummi and #Nooksack who have lived on these lands since time immemorial. It's an important day to educate yourself about the Point Elliott Treaty and our continuing obligations to each other and to this land. It was this treaty that made the existence of #WhatcomCounty and #WashingtonState possible. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Treaty_of_Point_Elliott #pnw
