I love the Acadian flag because it’s literally

Hey you! Do you live anywhere near Portland, Maine? Then you should go to this show on Feb. 9th about Acadian poetry performed by local musicians. A little lady you may know did the poster and album cover

Acadian miku. I'm gonna be honest I haven't been to Maine since I was 3 I do not remember anything about the culture. Genuinely considering going to Maine maritime academy just so I can be closer to where my dad grew up and actually learn something about my roots other than reading acadian history wikipedia and learning about nothing but how the British suck ass

Anyway fun fact my families ancestors only avoided the mass deportation by fucking off into the woods until the brits left. Also I found my pèpé's obituary the other day and it's very surreal to see the face of someone who died when you were in kindergarten

Oh and my mèmé, going off of old wives tales, kept telling my mom I'd be a boy since she was carrying high (that's an understatement I was all up in her ribs i was a menace as a fetusbaby), and my parents kept telling her "No, we got the tests done, the baby is female." But she was adamant that no, she was carrying me high. I was gonna be a boy. And like half a decade after she died, I (socially) transitioned and if heaven is real she's probably laughing her ass off about it.

Also my pèpé didn't know about segregation until he went to Florida despite being born in like 1930 or something

This started off as the "draw miku as part of your culture" meme but it devolved into me talking about my French grandparents who I have no memory of but many weird stories

Acadian Day (LA)

While this day is to celebrate the resilience, contribution, and culture of Acadians, it's also Native American Heritage Day, so I'd also like to celebrate and thank the Wabanaki Confederacy, specifically the Mi'kmaq, Penobscot, and Wolastoqey Nations.

Without the Mi'kmaq Nation accepting the French colonizers onto their land and extending a hand of peace and teaching, the French would not have easily survived, if at all.

Thanks to the bravery and resistance of the Penobscot and Wolastoqey Nations, some of the Acadians were able to evade capture, deportation, and death. If not for them, there would have been nothing for the returning Acadians to come home to.

Thanks to all of them, the Acadians were able to settle deep roots that would resound through time.

Wela'lin, Mi'kmaq Nation.

Woliwoni, Penobscot Nation.

Woliwon, Wolastoqey Nation.

We owe more than we could ever repay to you.

Excerpts from a groupchat

See I’m a natural flirt see flirting is a part of my natural cant and yet when flirting is real and not merely rhetorical I am lost as a marooned captain on a small island perhaps in the grand seas of Micronesia perhaps among the lesser Antilles I am lost and only have my flare my flare of the question of “are we flirting right now do you want to dance together later” and I refer not to sex but to that sacred ecstatic art that is so lost in our age that dance with the music loud and with no mind payed to how we may appear to any notion of cringe but merely to the ecstatic feeling of movement like Saint Teresa being pierced with the arrow

I no longer am asexual for sex is a great and holy thing and yet I am never satisfied by sex what I require is the sublime I would like to dance and I would like to be in a club that would not have me as a member but that would allow me to feel the low end quaking through my bones for the subwoofers to polish me as a shard of glass tumbling through the ocean I would like to take you hiking I would like to have a picnic together by some Oxford County lake or on some one of those great mountains not great enough to be named or held in any great regard but which reaches up and carries us just enough away from the stench of the Mexico paper mill and we’ll drink sweet wine and watch the sunset and when these sort of sentiments escape my mouth people say to me they say “Gus you’re a lesbian!” and I nod and I think to myself “maybe I am a lesbian maybe I’m the greatest bisexual lesbian with a dick and a moustache of them all” but then I remember the decades we spent under the reign of Prince that great faggot that master of all those quintessentially American forms and I hang my head and I say “perhaps I am a lesbian but sex is not what I chase I merely want to run with you into the sunset and as of course it outruns us we will tire and watch the stars about which I am ignorant and you may educate me on the nature of constellations as I listen intently with the sea of my eyes fixed on them on Sirius on Orion on whatever I can spot”

The ecstasy of a platonic intimacy of sharing those sorts of romantic experiences not romantic in our modern sense but Romantic as in Byron or Baudelaire the experience of the sublime of having yourself humbled and your breath stolen in the presence of unimaginable beauty that is what I seek what I wish to share with another

🐘 Right wing folks follow us to punish the tyrants & rebels who stalked us with govt & tech.

❤️ this post to bring back the food, rural transport & housing the left, liberals & democrat voters always evict us with like colonizers before them.

The left wing is the majority of Tumblr & the media.

Folk Ways for an Acadian or French Canadian folk practitioner

I want to start an ongoing list of Acadian and French Canadian religious and popular folk ways that I've been learning about for the last two years. My references will be at the end for further reading!

Blessing a candle on Candlemas (Feb. 2) with holy water will allow you to have a light whenever there is sickness and storms hitting your home. Traditionally on Candlemas, the light is lit and guided through every room in the house to bless all its corners for the year. It was even paraded in the farmer's fields. (Dupont)

The 25th April, on St. Mark's Day, is the ideal day to bless your fields or garden before putting in the first seeds. This ensures the growing food to be blessed by this saint. (Maillet)

Animals have been known to speak in human tongues on Christmas Eve. (Maillet)

If you feel that nothing is going right in your day, your homemade bread sours, or general bad luck assails you, simply boil some holy medals. (Dupont)

The first three days of the month of August, the ocean waters are known to have healing properties, and it wouldn't hurt to dip your feet in it. (Chiasson)

It was customary to trace crosses on windows using holy water when a storm would hit. (Lacroix)

To find a lost object, simply toss a rosary or a pocket metal rosary over your shoulder. The foot of the cross will point in the direction where your lost object might be located. (Dupont)

To have good weather on your wedding day, be sure to hang your rosary on your clothes line the day before. (Dupont)

TUMBLR is too Liberal & biased

Used it for years, never made an account until now. This site has always been a hive for nonconformist hipsters. Especially leftists from that 2010s Simpsons episode “the Day the Earth Stood Cool”

I’m not ashamed of the fact that a Catholic school saved me, made me the wise, chill pro-intellectualist & creator I am. Straight, neurotypical jock too. Lately. I’ve been hearing people come out against the S.A. & Rez school abewse run by Prog-Liberal governments (& to be Hufflepuff fair Catholics too) that kids were kælled, verbally, emotionally sæxually & physically assaulted into conforming to Western standards. AKA Liberal/Democrat modernity, preachings & progress. It made me think that not only were the Rumors of child incarceration true. But raising prices, creating more homeless (as did Marx & his children) dependant on Left-govt welfare. SA especially in govt child care buildings.

I haven’t been able to get a job or a home. Its a harsh burden on me, my fellow Zillenials (along with cold stereotypes) and parents too.

As for Leftist Divergent LGBTQ ideology polluting nature. Immigration ideology & policies sent VERY long, carbon emitting plane & boat trips from IBegaldesh, India & Philippines (etc). Do the math for distances & minimum wage compared to apartment prices. Everyone freezes thanks to Kamala Trudeau.

Every migrant has to eat. So the litter from fast food or big grocery is plastic fueling wildfires that occur in Canada each year. It’s obvious what harm this does to Mountain glaciers, Icebergs & permafrost. Don’t get me started on the need for gas & cars to get microplastics fish & humans end up eating.

Even the UN has called this migration program “modern day/capitalist Slavery” made worse when Kamala Harris told Latinx women & children escaping civil war, gangs & abuse. Through hot deserts & jungles in the summer. “DO NOT COME x2” then sent them back to war with building some facilities after that might not work or get destroyed.

California & Massachusetts - Esoecially cities- are democrat constant states where homelessness is all over the place. No bathrooms, more Drugs & alcohol. Favours for the rich.

Reconsider your vote & ideology. Obama bombed innocent civilians.

Creative Insight Process - The Awakening

The creative part about writing a new story out my anime zone is a challenge. What do I need to know about? Vampires?

Oh!!! I do enjoy Egyptian stories and the creating a story that doesn't follow the same lines as a love story. As a part of the LGBTQIA+ Community as an open queer nonbinary writer, why not a story that has a love story of two characters.

Acadian - Protagonist of the story is nonbinary and an ancient Egyptian vampire who is chosen as a protector of the pharaohs. They have similar powers to Anubis and wakes up in modern New York after betrayal. Acadian meets their uncle, Seth (who is evil and believes that humans don't deserve to rule the world.

Seth- Antagonist of the story. Under Anubis chosen group, he wants to use Acadian to find the relic to control the humans. His intentions are clear and devious. He will stop at nothing to get his wish, even after bring Acadian into the modern world.

Lila- Love interest of Acadian. Human nerd that loves Egyptian history and myths. She believes if she helps Acadian prevent Seth and his wishes that she will be seen as more as a friend.
