LDR support

Colleen Noel will be starting posting about LDR telling our story

1/30 Edited to

... Read moreLong-distance relationships (LDR) can be challenging, but having a strong support system makes all the difference. Through sharing our story, we've learned that communication is the foundation of sustaining an LDR. Regular video calls, texting, and even sharing daily photos keep the connection alive and create moments that feel near despite the distance. Additionally, having someone to share these experiences with—whether a friend, community group, or social media followers—provides encouragement and valuable advice. Platforms like Facebook allow us to reach out and engage with others who relate to our journey, offering a sense of belonging. What has helped me personally is setting goals together with my partner, such as planning visits or future plans that give us both hope and motivation. It's also important to be vulnerable and express our feelings openly to avoid misunderstandings. If you're in an LDR, I encourage you to seek out online communities or start sharing your story. You'll find support and some amazing tips that can make the distance a little easier. Remember, every relationship is unique, but shared experiences unite us and make the journey worthwhile.

A social media post from 'dineaesthetics now' explains that Valentino's misuse of Métis and Dene artwork disrespects Indigenous ways of being and knowing. It emphasizes that using Indigenous stories and symbols without permission is a slap to the communities and shows disregard for their brilliance.
A social media post from 'dineaesthetics now' discusses how Indigenous artwork is rooted in storytelling, holding lessons and knowledge, and is community-oriented. It contrasts this with capitalistic and colonizing attitudes that don't value community-oriented presence, especially concerning AI.

little things for long distance ✨
Long-distance relationships can be tough, but little intentional things made a big difference for me. I sent “open when” voice notes, synced up in silence when I missed them, and even used Google Maps to go on virtual dates. If you’re in one, get creative—connection is still possible. #relationshi
