....okay that's enough social media for today

It's always striking to me that antisemitism is so ingrained that even people who like Jews like them in a way that hates Jews

Y'all just LOVE to get tricked by alt-right white supremacists into spreading antisemitism. You LOVE IT.

I have no choice but to believe the reason these guys succeed is subconsciously part of you is cool with subtly hating Jews.

Time to ask why yourselves why you keep falling for this shit.

We need to spend more of our activism against the carceral system specifically fighting the fact that the state and the country use throwing the disabled into mental hospitals where they have no legal rights like parole or even having a lawyer to disappear them from society indefinitely.

A fast way to make me want to read a queer adult SFF book is finding reviews complaining that it's not queer enough because sure there are canonically and explicitly queer characters being queer but there is no allonormative meet-cute-to-HEA romance arc so are they really even queer at all??

tbh in the midst of people trying to declare all outward expressions of Judaism to be "Zionist" and therefore BadTM, all of the "Christmas is secular and everyone should celebrate it!" nonsense feels so much worse than it usually does

Are you paying attention? Or are you just being totally indiscriminate with who you boost and support because they're saying things you agree with? Who are your sources and what is their agenda? Don't let yourself be used.

Publicly displaying a menorah has always been an act of defiance and bravery, but it's even moreso now that simply being Jewish is no longer tolerated by either side of the aisle. Remember when you see a menorah in a window this hannukah how brave it is for people to paint a target on their home.

Watching customary Hanukkah celebrations get cancelled because people don’t want to be seen as “supporting Israel” is just shattering

I’m hearing rumors about a “new year”, do we really want another one of these things?

Writing is great because if someone tells you they hate your work, you know they hate it, if they don’t say anything, you assume they hate it, and if they tell you they liked it, you also assume they hate it.

I've been birdwatching for years and have come to one major conclusion: there are literally over a hundred birds.
