If you want to learn and hear from First Nations women in this part of the world and how they're regaining their space, this is a great article about Nuu-cha-nulth women:
“Nuu-chah-nulth women are powerful, strong, and not afraid to take up the space meant for them. This is how Mariah Charleson (łučinƛcuta), a Hesquiaht member who was recently elected the nation’s chief councillor, describes the women of Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations.”

A nuuchanulth woman, Ann Robinson of Tseshaht stands in front of a wood deck railing. She is wearing a leather cowboy hat. She has long grey hair flowing past her chest. She is older, with a weathered but kind face. She is wearing traditional necklaces and a purple sweatshirt.

Nuu-chah-nulth women reflect on their role through generations | Ha-Shilth-Sa Newspaper
Nuu-chah-nulth women are powerful, strong, and not afraid to take up the space meant for them. This is how Mariah Charleson (łučinƛcuta), a Hesquiaht member who was recently elected the nation’s chief councillor, describes the women of Nuu-chah-nulth First Nations. When young girls see the generation before them filled with strong-natured Nuu-chah-nulth women who are proud to speak their language, sing their songs, and dance their dances, they intrinsically want to follow suit, she said.

Forgot to mention the training montage, to train 100 farmers to shoot guns and swing a sword at a straw man
Can't make this up
The army is flying in about 2 dozen six-legged armored tank things, each with its own dropship. Both the dropships and the tanks have multiple laser cannons.
Dozens of troops stand in formation, armored, with rifles.
It's not straining disbelief, it's just absurd

"To transform society, understand the interconnected web of life that links all beings. Through wise discernment, recognize the threads that sustain suffering and replace them with those that weave harmony. Let systems thinking guide education, dialogue, and ethical policies, for these shall mend the fabric of our shared existence with loving-kindness."

A pixel art image depicting a fantastical cave scene. The cavern is vast, with high ceilings dotted with stalactites. Glowing golden lights illuminate the interior, suggesting the presence of a civilization with buildings structured in a classical architectural style. A river flows gently through the cave, reflecting the light from the buildings and the luminescent dots scattered throughout the scene, creating an ethereal atmosphere.

A pixel art image showing an imaginative, vertical cave scene. Eminent pillars and ruins with classical architecture adorn the left side, leading up to a temple-like structure atop a cliff. The scene is lit by a cascade of ethereal blue light that seems to be flowing from the upper regions, bathing the cavern in a supernatural glow. There’s a river running through the center, with a bridge crossing over it. The water is bioluminescent, adding a surreal quality to the environment. In the backgro…

Incredible profits on the power network today -- AUD $231 in 90 minutes.
Make money: Time-shift the sun.
This all reflects the support and reliability we're gifting the grid. The NSW power grid is in a week of crisis, with big "normal" power stations failing to help out when there are temporary problems with the link to Victoria, and seasonal lows in dinner-time wind solar.
(I just wish TV news — especially ABC News — would stop discussing nuclear since it…

Screenshot of my Amber Electric app, showing earnings for today (only) exceeding AUD $231. This was on 17.8 kilowatt-hours of grid imports, and 22.2 kilowatt-hours of grid exports. The difference is accounted for by solar generation exceeding home use, but the earnings is accounted for by the time-of-day pricing of electricity. Power at dinner time is worth (and in demand) a lot more than power at lunch time, when the sun shines freely. The sun is still powering dinner, but I get to make so…
Screen shot from a notification in the Amber Electric app received during the dinner-time energy crisis this week, where home owners like myself are being rewarded for stabilising the grid. It reads: PRICE SPIKES - MAY 8 We're seeing some significant volatility in the market in NSW and ACT over the last 24 hours, leading to some high price spikes. This is being caused by some outages at major coal plants and limitations on the interconnections between QLD and VIC, combined with the Autumn lo…

Two-dimensional Kripke Semantics I: Presheaves
The study of modal logic has witnessed tremendous development following the introduction of Kripke semantics. However, recent developments in programming languages and type theory have led to a second way of studying modalities, namely through their categorical semantics. We show how the two correspond.
