#slowdeath — Public Fediverse posts

[NEW REVIEW] 🚨

Dive into the sonic exorcism of Portugal’s own ABLAZE. 🇵🇹

Their new EP Slow Death is a masterclass in top-tier aggression, blending the urgency of the old school with a modern, nihilistic bite. Forget overproduction—this is controlled chaos, dissonant energy and raw emotion 🔥

FFO early Converge, Botch, or Poison the Well.

“Weapons of Health Destruction...” How Colonialism Created the Modern Native American Diet

The Impact of Systematic Oppression on Indigenous Cuisine in the United States

#Frybread, sometimes called “#DieBread” or a “weapon of health destruction,” has multiple origin stories, and they all involve oppression and perseverance.

by Andrea Freeman, July 24, 2024

Excerpt: "On the hit television show #ReservationDogs, the only series ever to feature all #Indigenous writers, directors, and main cast members, the Indian Health Center invites rapper Punkin’ Lusty, played by real-life #Mvskoke rapper #StenJoddi, to perform his hit song '#GreasyFrybread.' [A song Dr. Lowry played during today's broadcast.] The occasion is #Diabetes Awareness Month. Lusty raps,

Baby girl looking deadly (Yeah!)
Why she acting all Rezzy (Yeah!)
Hotter than a pan of frybread grease!
Have a Native hittin’ Powwow Beats!
Gotcha Auntie in the kitchen
Like no he didn’t
Got her Gramama’s skillet
Like she ’bout to kill it!

The song solidly locates frybread within Indigenous culture.

Sofkee [a corn drink or soup] on the burner
Hokte Hokte [woman] head turner
Water baking powder
Choppin’ up that white stuff
All purpose flour
Gotta mix it right up
Hit the Rez with the Shits
They eats it right up! Watch the grease pop
Watch her waist drop
She got that blue bird bag [Blue Bird flour comes in a twenty-pound cloth bag and claims to be “The Native American Frybread Secret”]
In her tank top
he got that white powder
All over everything
She gettin’ to bussin’ man
But we ain’t cousins man!
We from the same tribe
But a different clan
She my Rez Bunny
And I’m her Red Man
She love my Tattoos
And my two braids
Frybread money at the Creek Fest get paid! On that!”

Foregrounding this song in the Health Center’s battle against diabetes underscores the other side of frybread’s legacy, also emblazoned on a T-shirt that announces 'Frybread: Creating #Obesity Since 1860.' #Cheyenne and #HudulgeeMuscogee #IndigenousRights activist #SuzanShownHarjo, who vowed to give up frybread as a New Year’s resolution, explains, 'Frybread is emblematic of the #LongTrails from home and freedom to confinement and #rations. It’s the connecting dot between healthy children and obesity, #hypertension, diabetes, #dialysis, #blindness, #amputations and #SlowDeath.' Reflecting on stereotypes that dehumanized Indigenous people to justify #colonization, such as the worn-out trope of Indians drinking 'firewater,' Harjo asserts that frybread love is another way to portray them as 'simple-minded people who salute the little grease bread and get misty-eyed about it.'

"In The #HeartbeatOfWoundedKnee, scholar #DavidTreuer introduces health educator #ChelseyLuger, who is #Ojibwe and #Lakota. Chelsey talks to Indigenous communities about the perils of frybread as part of her efforts to steer their diets in new directions, even in the face of limited food options. 'Sometimes people get defensive, but we are able to make the conversation positive. We say we grew up with it and like it and we say frybread is not power. We say frybread kills our people. It’s that serious. It causes diabetes and heart disease. We have to look at those colonial foods as a kind of enemy.' "

I feel like we're watching the decline and death of Arc Browser. Chromium updates and bug fixes each week. I know they said they were moving on to another new/undisclosed/unexplainable product, but going into only a maintenance phase for a very popular app rubs me wrong. I used to love getting the weekly update and seeing their take on how to improve a browser. Now Arc makes me sad (although I still use it). #arcbrowser #browserco #browsercompany #slowdeath #AppCapitalismSucks

And on today's controversial musical poll that nobody asked for. What's for you the most obnoxious and never-ending rock/pop ballad of all time. Feel free to add yours.
#music #poll #ballad #SlowDeath

For this week's bonus #ThursDeath, Costa Rica's PERISHING and their great new EP from this year, 'Lutum'. Perishing make some really slow, crushing deathdoom. And there's midtempo stuff mixed in here and there too, across these four songs, giving the whole thing some excellent dynamics throughout. Caligari Records often bring the goods, and Perishing is a badass find from them this year.

My health keeps getting worse. Meanwhile i get treated as if i am making it up, as if i am simulating. Almost no one heeds our warnings. We are getting sidelined, ignored, forgotten.

At times i don't even know what hurts more. The illness or the way we get gaslit, shamed, ridiculed?

Death by a million small cuts.

#LongCOVID #SlowDeath #OrganizedAbandonment

@maddad Why do they keep signing bills when the majority oppose? The minority will not get them votes. Republicans are digging their grave. #SlowDeath

Going Broke to Save Smooshi
Stories like this make me cry for the suffering of animals in captivity. I'm realistic enough to know animals lead hard lives in the wild but slowing killing them in zoos and entertainment venues in pursuit of the almighty dollar is not an animal's purpose.
