Story time. TL,DR: I want my scalps. I initially made because it was some badass shit (fuck yeah man, skull with an arrow, throw the most badass war paint on it), and I had just gotten back into Illustraitor and Photoshop after a long hiatus… but there are meanings behind it. Honestly I just follow my gut on these things, and the bigger picture is always revealed to me thereafter. Traditionally warriors rocked the hand print war paint if they killed an enemy hand-to-hand or silently in battle. Red or black paint denoting the difference. I chose scalper, because that’s kind of what we do. In modern times it has also been adopted to represent and bring awareness to MMIW (murdered, missing indigenous women) while this isn’t my own meaning (I’m going for war paint), I do have six sisters. The arrow is taken from the Great Seal of The Choctaw Nation. The original seal features three arrows, a tomahawk/peace pipe and a bow, sometimes strung, unstrung, or missing a string. All three have unique meanings: - Strung bow meaning the nation is ready for war - Unstrung representing our love for peace, but readiness for war. - No string is interesting, but I use that for engraving on weapons, and the weapon is the string (featured on my rifle). The arrow on the patch represents accuracy, power, and violence. It’s the result of what happens after the bow is strung. It’s a single arrow taken from the three featured on the original seal, a continuation and evolution of the tribe. Frankly, with all of our new “neighbors” coming in daily, we are all Natives now. Us Indians and cowboys have sufficiently beaten the shit out of each other for a couple centuries, and at this point, it gives me great joy to say that we as countrymen love this country equally, and we all earned being here. The skull represents a lot, you can draw your own meanings, but I just thought it looked neat. I had a realization Jules moment of, “Now... I been sayin' that shit for years. And if you ever heard it, that meant your ass. You'd be dead right now. I never gave much thought to what it meant. I just thought it was a cold-blooded thing to say to a motherfucker before I popped a cap in his ass. But I saw some shit this mornin' made me think twice.” I realized there was an an acronym: Societies Created After Liberation from Pollitical Eternal Rule P.S. in case you didn’t know, Choctaws traditionally used stick ball, or “Ishtaboli” as a means to prevent conflicts between tribes. Ishtaboli translates to Little Brother of War.

Ok, listen up, everyone. Someone sent me a super cool gift. I have 2 irl friends that would have possibly done something like this. It wasn’t them. I asked 2 GCs on here. It wasn’t any of them. I texted a guy I met here who I would have put $ on it came from him. Nope. I called the company. It was bought online 5 days ago, they used an email which is a version of my real name, but not my email address. It was missing my middle initial. Raise your hand if you sent it. I’m guessing it’s a dude. I’m not posting pictures until I know who it was.🤔

GM. Division amongst ourselves is never the answer. My homies aren’t really into politics. We are more into debating the merit of tiger stripe versus woodland.
