Native monsters: Sasquatch, Bigfoot, Yeti
![]() |
| Ancient indigenous Native American rock art (petroglyphs) warn of Sasquatch creatures in area. |
![]() |
| There really are killer "monsters" in the woods |
Sasquatch is a feature in both Native American and Canadian (First Nations) folklore and since the mid-20th century has become a cultural icon, permeating popular culture and becoming the subject of its own distinct subculture [5][6].
![]() |
| The creatures are given many names worldwide. |
Enthusiasts of Sasquatch (Istiyehe) hunting, such as those within the budding science of cryptozoology, have offered various forms of forensic evidence to support the existence of these Nature protectors and monsters (since they differ at least as much as human populations in terms of the behavior of individuals), including eyewitness claims of sightings as well as DNA, hair specimens, bodies, photographs, video, and particularly shocking audio recordings, in addition to a long history of tens of thousands of plaster casts of extremely large footprints [7][8][9][10] with individual fingerprints, as noted by Lloyd Pye.
![]() |
| Original film reexamined and found to be real |
The evidence is a combination of eyewitness accounts, interactions, killings, folklore, identification, misidentification (confusing the humanin creature with bears of all kinds), and hoaxes.
The creatures are living animals but to say so causes a great deal of trouble to anyone trying to be taken seriously. Even a body is not enough because the gatekeepers and mainstream media insist and repeat that it cannot be a living creature [3][7][10][11][12][13].
Folklorists trace the phenomenon of these ogres and cave-dwelling monsters to a combination of factors and sources, including the European "wild man" figure, Asian Yeren, folk tales from every continent other than Antarctica, and indigenous cultures [14][15].
![]() |
| When disclosed, what will science say? |
Examples of similar folk tales of wild, hair-covered humanoids exist throughout the world [16][17], such as the skunk ape of the Southeastern United States, the Almas (Almasty of Georgia and the Caucuses), Yeren of China, and Yeti of Nepal, Tibet, Bhutan, India, and the Himalayas extending from Bangladesh to Afghanistan, including the Australian Yowie [14][18], and frightful (sometimes peaceful) creatures in the mythologies of indigenous people [19][20], who consider them another human tribe.

| German Krampus, mean demonic shapeshifter |
Speculation, a growing cultural interest in the preservation of the environment, and overall societal awareness of the subject have been cited as additional factors [21]. More: Bigfoot

If YOU subscribe or are even thinking of subscribing to an ANTI-FAscist, mmm, ideology, you are now guilty of a thoughtcrime* and are considered an official "member" of a forbidden, violent, domestic terrorist organization criminalized by Fascist Leader Trump. So knock it off and become PRO-FAscist. It's the law! OBEY. You may submit yourself for detainment at any ICE pop up in your sector. Or please visit your local Republican (GOP) recruiting office or Sunday evangelical service for directions to donor-sponsored and approved shopping outlets. And remember to catch our counterprogramming Alternative Super Bowl halftime show with Turning Point USA MAGA's happy Queen Erika Kirk to stop the capitalist oppression of our youth and drinking public from being exposed to Puerto Rican American citizen Mr. Bad Bunny.

*On Sept. 22, 2025, Fearless Leader Trump signed an executive order to designate "Antifa" as a domestic terrorist organization [34][35]. Academics, legal experts, and other sane onlookers argue that such an executive action exceeds the authority of the U.S. presidency and violates the First Amendment [37][38][39]. Analyses, reports, and studies have concluded that antifa is NOT, for one thing, an "organization" but rather an idea and, for another, NOT a major domestic terrorism risk [40][41][42]. But never mind that. Trump is ruler so we MUST obey him even if he mandates illegal, immoral, genocidal crimes or anything based on the words of a lying liar who lies.
Anti-Fascism is now a crime?

The World Naked Bike Ride 2024
WARNING: (Tom Saxer) World Naked Bike Ride 2024, London, UK, meeting at Tower Hill
Naked Bike Ride 2024 was covered by Allison Barr for The Oregonian/OregonLive. Even though the official ride was put on hold this year, a spin-off of the World Naked Bike Ride pedaled through Portland on Saturday afternoon.
The “official” World Naked Bike Ride took a hiatus this year. But protesting cyclists still wanted to gather for a ride.
As one of the speakers before Saturday’s ride explained: It’s an effort to bring their qualms with Zenith Energy into the limelight. They also want to inspire others to commute via bike and celebrate body positivity.

| Put a bra on, Old Timer! There are children here. |
The ride organizers emphasize that it’s first and foremost a protest against fossil fuel dependency.
Second, it’s a communal place to celebrate being ourselves, exactly how we are.

| I also love riding bikes! - Luigi Nicki Mangione |
Saturday afternoon, hundreds of bodies gathered at Colonel Summers Park in Southeast Portland around 4:00 pm. This was a change from the ride’s usual nighttime slot.
After people painted each other, danced to music blasting from multiple speakers, and delivered emotional speeches into microphones, a sea of naked and nearly-naked people on bikes headed out.
Their plan is to lie down at the Zenith Energy building in Northwest Portland for ten minutes before ending the ride at the waterfront.
As the ride organizer going by the name Spartacus said, “Give yourself permission to know it’s your body. And feel a sense of belonging to your life and your body because your body chooses clean air, clean water, clean rivers.” Source

While Northern California won’t see as extreme temperatures as the southern portion of the state, they will still be above average temperatures for most of the week.
This will all go on while fire crews are battling wildfires all over the state with the largest being near the Tahoe National Forest, north of the capital Sacramento near the Nevada border.

Rite of passage: 'Long Line of Ladies' (film)

Long Line of Ladies (LA Asian Pacific Film Festival)
.
(
VCM) "Long Line of Ladies is a stigma-breaking, female-directed short documentary that gives viewers a glimpse into the story of the Karuk tribe of Northern California.
![]() |
| When does a girl become a woman? Ihuk |
"It takes a significant step forward, normalizing period conversations by highlighting a culture that celebrates and uplifts its young women when they come of age."
From Academy Award-winner Rayka Zehtabchi and Shaandiin Tome, Long Line of Ladies intimately observes the months-long process of one girl, her family, and their tight-knit Karuk as they come together to prepare for her Ihuk.
![]() |
| Are goddesses only symbolic? |
In the weeks leading up to her Ihuk, Native American girl Ahty learns traditional songs and dances and mentally and physically prepares to spend four days blindfolded and fasting on sacred, tribal land.
Meanwhile, the women and men of the tribe around her support and uplift her as they pass down knowledge, prepare regalia, and above all promote the continued revitalization of their sacred ceremony.
