Good grief, what's it been? Weeks? A month? What is time.
I just... forget this app is here.
Also I can't pin anything about "The Biggest Prison on Earth" by Ilan Pappé being free on Audible right now, and that's a shame. I want any people going to my profile to see that reminder.

It is my birthday and I desperately need for someone (or some people) to help me effectively keep Esme out from under my bed with a better solution than I currently have.
It's on my wish list. www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...

I really am at a loss for words. It is beyond depraved to cheapen the Holocaust and imagery of it, and to do so to justify a genocidal campaign

I can't believe it takes me 10 minutes now to write a.... do we call them "skeets" here?... replying to pretty much anyone.
Is this fuzziness and inability to effectively marshal my thoughts just how I am, now?

Using "diverse" to mean "the weirdos" basically just reiterates that there's the "normal" group and then there's the "diversity" group. Which is actually the exact opposite of the entire concept of diversity, which is that variety /is/ normal and homogeneity isn't.

This site really has been designed to reduce gossip as much as possible, hasn't it?
Ultimately a good thing. Laudable, because all the anti-gossip features are also anti-bullying ones. This site seems so much safer than Twitter.
But.
I still want to know all the lore!
What was Corn Dad???

It frustrates me deeply that folks fail to see how ridiculous and wrong this demand by the Israeli government is.
I think about my family, I think about our friends, and I think about how for so many reasons it is impossible to comply with this order. Even if you wanted to.

Watching wave after wave of genocidal hatred should only be about the suffering of innocents, about standing with Gaza, about fighting oppression.
Instead: I'm deeper in my own religious trauma than I've been in years. Waking up at night thinking about The Rapture, ffs.

I've done threads about this as an #exvangelical.
Growing up I was taught not only were we living in the "end of days" but that we had to "befriend the Jews" because they are 1) God's chosen people 2) a critical part of the end times prophecy.
They do not want peace or Palestinian liberation.

Way too many people don't get that christian dominionism is apocalyptic accelerationism VERY LITERALLY SEEKING to hasten their vision of the Biblical end of the world.
That is not hyperbole or misinterpretation or a joke.
And they have VERY CAREFULLY worked their way into the halls of U.S. power.

I'll speak my peace on this & let it be but a popular actor just described Netanyahu as insane saying that only insanity can describe his actions. I'd counter by pointing out that his actions require a degree of lucidity & function most do not possess unless they're very much in their right minds.
