Its a beautiful pic.

Rural west central Minnesota. No light pollution out this way so I can get real good look at the night sky in any direction.

Medium, but I'm really in between that and large. I'm slender so large shirts get kind of billowy on me, but I'm tall enough that medium shirts get too short if they shrink too much in the wash. I usually end up hang drying my t-shirts so they don't shrink any further.

in fact many native americans see it as an honor to have a football team named after them. and 500 is more than enough sample size to gauge something, it skewed all the way to the unoffended side of the poll, another 1000 wouldn't have flipped the results. get real.
Just stop guy. You don't have any business speaking for an entire group of people, especially one you are not a part of, especially one so large and diverse. I'm Native. I live on a reservation. That team name is something my tribe, and other tribes in the area, are very much against. I have friends and family from other tribes around the country, and up into Canada. I don't know a single one who is for the name.

Sure that name, that slur, has lost most of its bite over the years. Hell, if someone called me a redskin I would probably laugh. Shit, I've been called much worse for absolutely no reason other than the color of my skin. NBD. Older generations would definitely have a much stronger reaction. But it's still a slur, it's marginalizing, and it needs to go. No other group of people would have to deal with this. It wouldn't even be perpetuated, but here we are. Keep the colors and the best looking uniforms in football, just change the fucking name.

You don't understand the dynamics of being Native American. Shame and self-hate, beaten into us during colonization and the decades long boarding school era, play a big role in why some Natives are ok with that name. There are many of who would rather not make a fuss, would much rather go with flow, go against their best interests even, in the hopes that society won't notice they are Native. And then there of us, like myself, who are concentrating on solving issues and breaking negative cycles in their own community to really devote too much time to the name change, who are ok with the name if only because it's not even on their radar. Trust me, that has a big impact on the favorable polls you cherry-picked.

And I've just written a long ass post on fucking GameFAQS, trying to explain things to people who don't really give a shit.

As someone that owns an battery-powered Ego lawn mower, the startup cost of battery-powered mowers are certainly higher than gas (more than double on average), but they are cheaper to use in the long run (only cost of operation other than a new battery every 5-10 years is the cost of electricity), simpler to use (pop in freshly-charged battery and go), do not require a trip to the gas station to restock on gas, require far less maintenance, zero emissions (if that's your thing), and also have "unlimited range."

Now when it comes to corded mowers...lol, just lol.
Glad you posted that, I was about to go off about how great battery powered mowers are lol. I just got done using my Ego mower a minute ago. This is my 3rd summer using it. I love it and am never going back to using a gas mower. I have one acre to mow, with some steep slopes and trees to maneuver around. I can get it all mowed on one charge of my 7.5ah battery.

Eh. I'll just believe you. Im pretty sure bears exist. But it's crazy you live somewhere where a bear can just wander into your yard. Doesn't that hang over your head at all times?
I live in rural Minnesota, they're pretty common here. This is the first time in a couple years one has been so active in my yard though. I haven't had one so comfortable around pets and humans, it is a bit concerning. My buddy is a conservation officer, he says he might trap it tomorrow and place it elsewhere.

Yeah I understand, it can be pretty complicated. There are some schools that give specific funding for Native Americans, some Tribes give their members scholarship money, and there are a few scholarship funds specifically for Natives. But simply being Native isn't enough to get your schooling paid for. Didn't mean to get after you, it's just a touchy subject when I see people thinking we get all these benefits when we really don't.

If you are 25% Native American or more, you get a huge grant to pay for college from the government, thats probably what TC is talking about.

Reparations for slavery sound good in principle, but are a lot harder to implement than those for Native Americans. It is a lot easier to track and prove that you are a member of a federally recognized tribe than your ancestor was a slave 200 years ago unfortunately
I'm Native American and enrolled in a federally recognized tribe. I'm currently attending college and I can confirm there is no such "huge grant" to pay for college. That is just one of the many myths that people believe about Native Americans and the supposed benefits, or payments, we receive. It simply isn't true.
