I've been tweaking the aesthetics of my #emacs prepared environment for thinking and writing. Featuring @minad@mastodon.world 's org-modern and a package called mixed-pitch for both variable and fixed width fonts

I'd like to share thoughts, feelings, music and art with relatives out there. I'm still figuring who I am and where I belong but I'd like to be part of "the world" here!
I post sketches of music here, and would love listeners to let me know if they listen! If you click the Media tab on my profile please enjoy the tunes!

Some #lakota #language for today. I haven't eaten, so the word is the one for "to be hungry".
Loċiŋ is a stative verb meaning he/she/they/it is hungry
Ik̄t̄omi lila loċiŋ. -> Iktomi is very hungry.
Lowaċiŋ ṡni. -> I am not hungry.
Loyaċiŋ he? -> Are you hungry?
Oyat̄e kiŋ louŋċipi. -> All the people are hungry.

I agree with @beandreams on the kids books. Im currently blanking on more good ones but they exist.
My Ponca friend Cliff Taylor has a book or two, one is called "Memory of Souls".
Oddly my contributions that come to mind are scholarly
- The Indigenous Paleolithic of the Western Hemisphere By Paulette F. C. Steeves
- George Sword's Warrior Narratives by Delphine Red Shirt
the latter has other books I've not read.

@sykora a worthy cause.
honestly though - there's this adolescent part of me that can be called upon by invoking the images or music from D2. been trying to let them come out more 💜

@moss just a random opinion -
ones i've seen recently with what you're asking for are "Return of Godzilla (1984)" which really has some of-the-era nuclear feels. also a lot of 80s Japan - journalists, hospital rooms, weird science, military and government scenes. a great suit with close up cybernetic head shots.
then "Shin Godzilla" which is more modern with a few evolutions of Gojira to draw from, kinda creepy and intense, very much a social satire of Japanese bureaucracy
