You were supposed to be on the stage at 8:30. It’s 10:14pm now. This is a 40+ crowd. we have jobs, responsibilities, & some have serious health issues that don’t come with assistants, babies, & private physicians. Get on the stage Madonna! This is just rude & we’re all pissed.

I placed a large order with ELOQUII and the quality of the items is horrendous. I've tried emailing and calling to get help with a return. Because no one responds to me and their phone line hours are limited they're now refusing a return. Don't shop here!

I had an anti-Native racist experience with a TSA agent 12 days ago. I filed a complaint at the airport & online. I still haven't received any followup. All during #NativeAmericanHeritageMonth at that. Good to know we can't even safely fly in our own lands.

Well UC Riverside finally let her go, but pretendian Andrea Smith will teach for one more year, have her legal fees covered & gets to “retire” with full benefits package. She’s being rewarded for being a fraud & for the heinous act of claiming she’s a descendant of genocide.

#DisabilityTwitter don’t fly Air Canada! They’re horribly ableist, won’t meet your access needs, and refuses to make both the complaint and reimbursement process for hotel & food costs due to cancelled flights accessible.

I’ve had more horribly ableist experiences with Air Canada. When I called to file a complaint they refused to take the complaint in a disability accessible format. You can watch my video & read about my many experiences on my Insta. #DisabilityTwitter , please make this go viral.

Your children’s disability isn’t social media “content” for you to share

Abortion access was already tough for those using IHS. The Supreme Court’s ruling may worsen the situation, leading to higher mortality rates for Native pregnancy-capable people in the U.S.

In March I interviewed Cambria Harris about her mom & other Indigenous women believed to be murdered by a serial killer & left in Winnipeg landfills. The govt has now said they won’t search the landfills. Camp Morgan has blocked the Brady Road landfill bit.ly/3NBO5Gu#Search…

News outlets often screw over journalists through similar shady practices. All I can say is read those contracts closely, get an attorney to negotiate, don’t sign a damn thing if it’s not in your best interests & file a lawsuit if needed. Get your $! #IndigenousMedia

We have dangerous air quality in DC from climate catastrophe fueled fires in Nova Scotia, a newly released study said the Arctic could be ice free in 2030s, but the “green” The Democrats just pushed through the MVP in the debt deal. Politicians are NEVER to be trusted! #StopMVP
