Lateral Violence ~ Colonizer Behavior

Published November 28, 2025 by tindertender

You know what sucks?
Lateral violence.

Not from strangers who know nothing about me…
but from our own people.
The comments, the digs, the policing, the “you’re not doing it right,” the “you don’t look Lakota enough,” the “who taught you.”
The jealousy.
The bitterness.
The tearing down.

And it’s wild, because that behavior?
That’s colonizer behavior.
It’s exactly what they wanted us to do to each other.
Break each other’s spirits.
Doubt each other’s teachings.
Destroy each other’s confidence.
Attack each other’s identity.
Make sure we never trust, never uplift, never celebrate one another.

Our ancestors didn’t survive genocide, boarding schools, forced removals, starvation, outlawed ceremonies, and relentless erasure…
so that we could turn around and harm each other the same way.

I’m out here teaching plant knowledge, educating, sharing culture, raising my kids, running a community-centered business, helping people heal, and trying to leave the world better than I found it.

And the hate I get for simply existing as who I was born to be is unreal.

But here’s what I know and what my elders taught me:
When people attack your identity, your family, your authenticity, your appearance—
they’re speaking from their own wounds.
Their own scarcity.
Their own disconnection.

I refuse to carry that.
I refuse to swallow their hurt like it’s mine.
I refuse to dim my voice to make someone more comfortable in their misery.

I was taught to stand strong, to stand in truth, to keep going even when others want to drag me down.

So to all that lateral violence aimed at me lately?
All that weird, ugly energy trying to knock me off my path?

Nah.
I’m not shrinking.
I’m not stopping.
I’m not breaking.

I’ll keep teaching.
Keep creating.
Keep building.
Keep uplifting our people.
Keep doing the work.

Because that’s what a good relative does.
And I’m not carrying colonizer behavior into the next generation.

Born in a Backroom of a Saloon

Published October 25, 2025 by tindertender

Lily Mae was born in the backroom of a saloon, her first lullaby the sound of poker chips and pistol clicks.

Her mother did what she could to keep her safe, but the world behind those swinging doors had sharp edges. By twelve, Lily knew how to patch a knife wound and read by lamplight, hiding borrowed books under whiskey crates so no one would laugh at a saloon girl’s daughter trying to learn her letters.

When her mother died, folks said it was only a matter of time before Lily took her place upstairs. Instead, she walked out of the saloon with a medical bag and never looked back. She apprenticed under the old town doctor, traded sleep for study, and stitched cowhands, drifters, and lawmen until her name carried more weight than her past ever could. By eighteen, she was Dodge City’s only nurse — steady, calm, and unflinching even when bullets tore through the doors at midnight.

Men who once sneered at her mother now waited in line for Lily’s care, hats in hand and shame in their eyes. She never said a cruel word, just worked until her hands shook and the lantern burned low. Some called her an angel, others a miracle. But Lily Mae never believed either. She was just a girl who refused to let dust, or men, decide who she’d become.

Fulvic Acid

Published May 16, 2023 by tindertender

Written By Dr. Timothy Foo

https://www.drtimfoo.com/blog/fulvic-acid

Recently stumbled onto this and I’m all about Fulvic compounds now. There is immense untapped potential here for many individuals. Found a video that has comprehensive information about this here. It’s a 45min video but I’ve digested it and created some notes that I’ll share in this post.

Notes

All living things consists of 96% Carbon, Oxygen, Hydrogen.
The other percentages are minerals.

Oxygen is important.
– 4 mins without oxygen – brain dead.
– 4-10s without oxygen – lose consciousness.

Every process in the body is dependant on oxygen. If we have low grade oxygen deficiency over a long time, an outcome is cancer. Immune system weakens, detox systems become inefficient, toxins build up. Overtime this leads to genetic mutation which is the basis of cancer. Cancer is an imbalance, not a germ.

This is where Fulvic compounds come in.

What is Fulvic acid?

They are mineral resources found in humic shale. Humic shale is the result of >75 millions years of humification. This is a process where organic plant material decompose and break down. It is essentially concentrated biomaterial.

4 Basic Functions of Fulvic Compounds

#1 It Is The World’s Strongest Chelator.

  • It turns insoluble mineral solutions into soluble solutions in water.
  • Binds to toxic metals like mercury and lead, and draws them into the body’s own detox system.
  • Acts like delivery man and garbage man. Two in one.
  • We are 96% oxygen, carbon, and hydrogen. The other 4% is minerals. Only needed in small amounts (they are dosed in micrograms), but they act like catalysts for all the reactions in the body. Fulvic acid has ALL of these 70+ minerals.
  • It is also a very small molecule. It is very easily absorbed by the body, crossing even the blood brain barrier. Something that many pharmaceuticals try to achieve artificially.

#2 High In Molecular Oxygen (Increases Cellular Electrical Voltage).

  • Molecular oxygen refers to available oxygen. Our body doesn’t just receive oxygen from breathing, you can get it also from the food we eat. Namely bioactive carbon complexes. These are carbon that carry molecular oxygen in them. Example: candy bar vs apple. Candy bar has spent carbon in it, oxygen levels very low. Apples (and living things) have high bioactive carbon complexes.
  • When you add molecular oxygen into the body, our oxygen concentration increases. This raises the voltage of our cells. We are electrical beings. Example, elite athletes, young children, and people with very high energy, they have high cellular voltage. Almost 5-6 times compared to people with conditions like cancer or degenerative conditions.
  • Example: Tree branch. If you stick it into the ground, it will grow. But if you plant a charred branch (a lot of carbon, but not bioactive) into ground, it won’t grow. It is spent, or inactive carbon.

#3 Enhancement Of Beneficial Microbes And All Enzymatic Functions In The Body.

  • Fulvic acid acts like a catalyst or spark to the engine. It takes 85 reactions for the heart to beat just one time! This is 60-70 times a minute in a normal person.
  • Liver has 56,000 known enzymatic function. It has 1,000-2,000 mitochondria in one liver cell. Mitochondria is the powerhouse of the cell. They require high molecular oxygen to function. If oxygen level drops, so does mitochondrial activity. It is like a fire without oxygen, it can’t burn. When you blow on a dying flame, delivering more oxygen, it comes back to life. Brain, liver, nerve, muscle cells all have high energy requirements.
  • Fulvic acid
    1. Delivers bioactive carbon and hydrogen to the mitochondria.
    2. Antioxidizes the mitochondria so they can keep doing their job.
    3. Remove waste from mitochondria so it can burn longer. It’s like a wood stove, if you don’t clean up the ashes (free radicals), it can’t burn as effectively. If too much ash accumulates, it snuffs out the stove. Eventually the stove dies, and when all the stove dies, eventually, the cell dies.
  • Sets up an environment for the beneficial microbes in the body to thrive. These are the oxygen eating microbes. There is a huge push now in the promotion of probiotics, even medicine is embracing this. So a lot of companies are selling probiotics. But if humans go to the moon, we die, not a good environment for us. Fulvic acid provides a conducive environment for the good bacteria to thrive. It sets the stage up for good bacteria to grow, and tears down the stage for bad bacteria.
  • If the detox mechanisms in the body don’t function well, all these toxic accumulation leads to cancer. Cancer patients don’t typically die from cancer, they die from toxicity. Fulvic acid is the garbage man that helps to take the toxins out of the body to prevent toxins accumulation.

#4 Massive Antioxidant Capacity.

  • Oxidation is the process of adding oxygen to something. Eg. When cutting metal, we use oxygen. By adding oxygen to metal, it dissolves and splits. Body uses oxygen in the process of eliminating toxins. When oxidation happens and releases too many free radicals, they start to cause damage.
  • Antioxidants come in to donate extra electrons to the free oxygen molecules. This keeps the cell stable so the process can be repeated again.
  • Fulvic acid not just deals with free radicals in the traditional sense. If that doesn’t work, it also steals the energy from that unstable molecule, and the free radical molecule collapses. This is unique to fulvic acid.

These are the 4 basic functions of Fulvic acid. It is used extensively by naturopaths around the world to aid in the detox systems of the body. Despite being so beneficial, not many people have heard of it because it is a difficult concept to explain to people hence it is not widely marketed.

Quick Summary – Fulvic Acid Basic Functions:

  1. It Is The World’s Strongest Chelator
  2. High In Molecular Oxygen (Increases Cellular Electrical Voltage)
  3. Enhancement Of Beneficial Microbes And All Enzymatic Functions In The Body.
  4. Massive Antioxidant Capacity.

𝐒𝐖𝐄𝐄𝐓𝐆𝐑𝐀𝐒𝐒

Published April 19, 2023 by tindertender

The elders tell us that it takes longer for us to heal today and the reason is because the old trails our ancestors used to use to find us have been destroyed….so now our ancestors are having a hard time finding us to help us heal.

We are also told that was the first plant to grow on Mother Earth

When we harvest Sweetgrass,we get three bunches of seven strands

So there will be 21 pieces of grass.

We do not pull it, this is the hair of Mother Earth.

We braid the three strands of seven pieces right there on Mother Earth

Then we gently cut it

If we want to state our intentions,, we can bring tobacco as to bring Creator in on our words as to how we will use this

For an offering we can offer something the plant can use,, like water,

So offer the relations around it, it’s brothers and sisters,mother and father

And so on,give them a gift of water.

When we burn sweetgrass, remember these things:
Its a kindness medicine…with a sweet gentle aroma when we light it.

Its symbolic…

There are 21 strands used to make a braid…
The first 7 strands represent those 7 generations behind us~
Our parents
Our grandparents
Our great grandparents and so on forth

7 generations behind us~who we are and what we are is because of them~they’ve brushed and made the trails we have been walking up til now…but the trails have been destroyed, we have lost our connection.

The time has come to heal and reconnect with our ancestors.

The next 7 represent the 7 sacred teachings…
Love, Respect, Honesty, Courage, Wisdom, Truth and Humility.

The elders tell us how simple, powerful and beautiful the teaching are:

1 Love: unconditional affection with no limits or conditions that starts with loving yourself.

2 Respect: due regard for the feelings, wishes, rights or traditions of other, with consideration, thoughtfulness, attentiveness, politeness, courtesy, civility, deference.

3 Honestly: have a character of integrity, and honor be free from fraud or deception, legitimate truthful.

4 Courage: bravery, permitting one to face extreme dangers with boldness withstanding danger, fear or difficulty

5 Wisdom: the quality of having experience, knowledge and good judgment the quality of being wise.

6 Truth: the face of the matter, veracity, sincere, candor and genuineness
a determined in principle entirely by how it relates to things

7 Humility: freedom from pride or arrogance, being humble, when we truly understand the teaching of humility, that we are not any better then anyone else and you are not any better then me. that at the end of the day we are simply human beings, this is what makes this teaching powerful and beautiful.

The last 7 strands are those of the 7 generations in front of us~
Our children …..
Our grandchildren …..
Our great grandchildren …..
as well as those children yet to be born.

It is important because everything we do to Mother earth will one day effect them… We have lost our way, Mother Earth gives us everything we need to heal ourselves and the earth. We must go back to our roots and bloom.

Parasites

Published March 24, 2023 by tindertender

I recently did a number on myself trying to rid my body of muscular parasites. I did a good job, even though it made me sick for a couple weeks. Barely any muscle twitching at all. I think ivermectin will have more affect nowadays.

Last night I dreamed of sweeping out my ”house” (body representative). It was a large travel mobile home (RV). I was sweeping out debris, broken glass, putting everything back in order. There were a few “people” in my home still, and there were some outside who wanted in.

I still have work to do, but this dream tells me I cleansed my body of the majority of the disruptors and interferers.

Next cleanse will be more gentle.

I think parasites are a form of low vibrational “demons” that infest a “host” and feast on the life force and essence of the host.

I’m pretty upset that the medical field, having full knowledge of parasite infestations in the body, agreed to Rockefeller renaming of symptoms as “diseases” and treat the symptoms, but don’t address the actual cause.

Many cancers and so-called diseases ARE parasite infestations. The medical “professionals” failed the people miserably… all for profit.

As people age, the likelihood of them having muscular parasites increases over 90% (my estimate). These parasites feast on the muscle mass, causing “marbelling” of the muscle. It’s one reason older people lose muscle mass, becoming weakened, and age quickly, getting sick more often.

We are over 70% water.
The waters are infested with parasites.
We are the river of life.
It is our responsibility to cleanse and purify these waters.

I dreamt once of a man, woman and child. They were in the river of life, on a floating raft of sorts.
Parasites were sucking the life out of them all.
The man was dying, or dead. The woman was asleep. The infant was still moving around.

We must purify the waters of life that we are.

Shame on doctors in the medical field who left human beings vulnerable to parasitic infestation.

They betrayed the human species.

Do You Know the Meaning of Myrrh?

Published December 30, 2022 by tindertender

Myrrh is a rare thing, it’s a resin extracted from a low tree called camphoras typical of the semi-desert region of North Africa and the Red Sea. Besides being one of the first gifts Jesus received by the three magical kings on the occasion of his birth, the myrrh also possesses a powerful spiritual meaning.

Camphora, tree from which resin is extracted, is a symbol of strength and endurance of love. “Love is as strong as death,” said Solomon (Songs 8.6). True love needs strength to resist, act and stay. And so is the cammiphora, a tree that survives in a dry region, without resources, with the harsh reality and scarcity of a desert and that continues to produce its fruit.

The word myrrh means bitter in Arabic, and it is considered as a natural remedy for wounds because it possesses strong antiseptic and anti-inflammatory power. In China, myrrh has been used as a treatment for wounds, bruises, and bleeding for thousands of years.

The myrrh is the feminine essence of the Cosmos. It represents the manifestation of the pure soul, of full understanding. It is the essence used as a detector of us, which induces purification and protection.

We can harness all the power of myrrh currently through oils and incense with this fragrance. It is used in rituals that call for spiritual cleansing and protection, the myrrh acts as blessing, protecting and healing. When used, it awakens the feeling of fraternity, of self-knowledge and harmony, being widely recognized for its power of renewal, of generating calm and tranquility with its scent.
