OK, make that delivery time “probably after 10 p.m.” Which is fine by me.
The e-mail notification must have gone our at the same time I got a robocall with exact same message.
Mostly sharing, though, because the way their system stated the adjusted time window struck me as funny. Yes, I imagine the delivery will show up at some point after 6 p.m., considering it was already a couple of hours after that when the message went out 🙄
The Maya people (sometimes Mayans) are a group of Indigenous peoples of Mesoamerica. They inhabit southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador and Honduras. The overarching term “Maya” is a collective designation to include the peoples of the region that share some degree of cultural and linguistic heritage; however, the term embraces many distinct populations, societies, and ethnic groups that each have their own particular traditions, cultures, and historical identity.
The pre-Columbian Maya population was approximately eight million.[3] There were an estimated seven million Maya living in this area at the start of the 21st century.[1][2]Guatemala, southern Mexico and the Yucatán Peninsula, Belize, El Salvador, and western Hondurashave managed to maintain numerous remnants of their ancient cultural heritage. Some are quite integrated into the majority hispanicizedMestizo cultures of the nations in which they reside, while others continue a more traditional, culturally distinct life, often speaking one of the Mayan languages as a primary language.
Maya blue is an ancient, long-lasting pigment with special significance to the Maya, associated with sacrifice and Maya deities, including the rain god Chaak.
Some B.C. First Nations are welcoming the Federal Appeal Court’s ruling to quash the approval of the Trans Mountain pipeline expansion project Thursday morning.
“The Squamish Nation celebrates the court’s ruling in favour of our Indigenous rights,” the nation said in a statement shortly after the decision came down.
The court ruled the government failed in its constitutional duty to “engage in a considered, meaningful two-way dialogue” with First Nations affected by the project.
“We tell the Prime Minister to start listening and put an end to this type of relationship. It is time for Prime Minister Trudeau to do the right thing,” said Khelsilem, a councillor and spokesperson for the Squamish Nation, in a statement issued Thursday morning.

Since before there was a self-advocacy movement, our community has fought for the right to be in control in our own lives. Now, a nominee to the Supreme Court threatens the progress we have made. Judge Brett Kavanaugh doesn’t believe that people with intellectual and developmental disabilities have the right to make our own decisions—and that’s exactly why we don’t want him making decisions about our country’s laws.Call your Senators TODAY and tell them to vote NO on Kavanaugh’s nomination.
In 2007, Kavanaugh ruled against 3 women with intellectual disabilities who had been forced to have abortions or other elective surgeries by the city of DC. In this ruling, he said that people with intellectual disabilities do not have the right to have any say at all in what kind of health care we get. If Kavanaugh becomes a Supreme Court Justice, we can expect to see more decisions like this one: decisions that reject disability rights, deny our right to control our own bodies, and let other people make our most personal decisions for us. Remember, a Supreme Court appointment is FOR LIFE—if Kavanaugh is appointed, his decisions will affect us for decades to come.
My name is [your full name]. I’m a constituent of Senator [Name], and I live in [your town]. I’m calling to ask the Senator to vote NOT to confirm Judge Kavanaugh. Judge Kavanaugh would undermine the Affordable Care Act, and he is a danger to the rights of people with disabilities. In 2007, he ruled that people with intellectual disabilities don’t have a right to a say in our health care. He sided with the DC government, which had forced people to have abortions they didn’t want. People with disabilities like [me/ my family member/ my friends] have a right to health care, and we have a right to make our own choices about what happens to our bodies. Please keep this dangerous man off the Supreme Court.
If you have trouble making phone calls or use AAC, our factsheet gives you strategies you can use to call your Senators. If you want more information about Judge Kavanaugh, including a plain language explainer, check out this resource page.
Once you’ve finished calling, here are some other steps you can take:
Visit your Senators’ state offices, and let their staff know how Kavanaugh’s confirmation would affect you and the people you love. This kind of face-to-face meeting really makes a difference. You can find lists of your Senators’ state offices on their websites.
Email or faxyour Senators. You can use the same script you did while calling.
Judge Kavanaugh wants to make decisions for the whole country, but he doesn’t respect our right to make decisions in our own lives. Our Senators need to decide now where they stand. Call your Senators today, and tell them: from our homes to our health care, from our self-determination to the Supreme Court—there can be Nothing About Us, Without Us!
Everything I have for sale. I’m also taking medallion orders, have a pic of examples I’ve done. Medallion with necklace $100, without $65. Needing to make enough for rent.
As you know I had to move suddenly and that took all my money and rent is due in new place by Friday. I haven’t had a steady income for the last 2 months because of chronic illness flare ups and family issues. I am trying to raise enough to pay the rent by selling beadwork and taking more orders.
If you don’t want to order anything and just want to help my PayPal is kiagbear@yahoo.com and my cash app is $kiagbear
Anything is appreciated and my kids and I are grateful for any help.
The turquoise edged earrings are sold, both pairs. Everything else is still available. Still needing to make rent by end of the week. 6 medallion orders would cover that if I can get orders for them. Again any help is appreciated.
I have 2 days left to try and get rent made for my new place. Any help is appreciated.
Still trying to raise $500. I have until the end of day Saturday. I’m beading like crazy to make things and work on orders placed. I’m just trying to keep a roof over my kids head.
Half of the people who died in the bombing were children. The youngest of whom was only seven. Two hundred and fifty people were left homeless. When the bomb was dropped, the firefighters were ordered to stand back and not do anything to help. Police shot people as they tried to escape. And while the city apologized and called the bombing “unconscionable” the only person who was ever criminally charged in the affair was Ramona Africa, the sole adult survivor of the bombing.
Seriously, every single American should be required to learn about the MOVE bombing.
While this is going around, probably worth adding that Ramona Africa is currently suffering from cancer and asking for help with medical fees, gofundme here: https://www.gofundme.com/helpsaveramonaafrica
