On January 26 1788, the First Fleet transporting convicts from Britian arrived on the lands of the Eora Nation and the establishment of a British colony in Australia began.
In 1938, First Nations activists declared this date a Day of Mourning. Gathering at a thousands-strong protest in Sydney they passed a resolution that:
"This being the 150th Anniversary of the Whiteman's seizure of our country, [we] HEREBY MAKE PROTEST against the callous treatment of our people by the whitemen during the past 150 years, AND WE APPEAL to the Australian nation of today to make new laws for the education and care of Aborigines, we ask for a new policy which will raise our people TO FULL CITIZEN STATUS and EQUALITY WITHIN THE COMMUNITY."

Although the day is now official observed as Australia Day, Victorian community organisers call it “an annual reminder of invasion, occupation, genocide and the ongoing impacts of colonisation that continue to destroy our land and waters”.
As Australians ourselves, living on the stolen lands of the Kulin Nation, we encourage you to spend the day doing what you can to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people. Black Rainbow and BlaQ Aboriginal Corporation are two organisations working to support queer First Nations people, that you in turn can support.

My partner and I held a vigil tonight for some of Florida's missing Indigenous women. We drew their portraits based on their missing persons photos.

October 26 Int’l Day of OFMD Mourning
I’m feeling for everyone.
I’ve been through HUGH disappointments with shows, even recently.
I’ve rage quit more than one thing.
massive hugs to all who are having a tough day.
I just can’t focus on what I’m supposed to be doing.
A little disappointed but happy about many developments in the show.

On this sad day, Kalos News Network would like to take a moment of silence for all those who perished in Geosenge when the Ultimate Weapon was fired.
[A video, its a list of named scrolling past the screen while sad stock music is playing in the background. Before the video, an unskippable ad plays.]

You know, I was hoping I'd be able to just spend a day with my sister completely offline but apparently not.
Attention, everyone: please do not try to hop the fences in Geosenge. They are there for your safety. There is no secret treasure, there is only radiation poisoning.

So, today is a very special and sad day for me.
Two of my absolute best friends have their birthday today, but both passed on in the last year. One was my ex, who I dated for 4 years and who was the godmother of my youngest daughter.
They would have been 38.
I want all of you to remember your loved ones and cherish them. It can all go away so fast.
