Having blamed my wife and neighbors for my first insurrectionist flag, I must now contend with the fact that I seemed to concede it was wrong. Happily precedent doesn’t matter.

Try it sometime--you'll find that it is much healthier to be profiled as a middle aged woman than a teenage girl.

'To understand current developments in Israel, as well as the country’s tumultuous history, it is necessary to clarify what Zionism has really meant over its 150 years of existence'

So thankful to have had a father who never said this kind of bullshit to me (because he never thought it), who was worried I'd get married too young and waste all the potential he saw in me.

Truly, shut up and dribble, asshole.

The psychological abuse to the families, and the further dehumanization of the dead by keeping hostage their bodies is the kind of thing I struggle to find language for x.com/jacobkornbluh/…

And the cops were taking a nap. Settlers are an embarrassment to Israelis, just as Hamas and other Jihadist groups are to Palestinians.

I want to share something personal.

This is a picture of my grandfather’s gramophone store on Johnson’s Court circa 1940.

Inscribed in chalk in front of the store are swastikas and the following:

‘Put the Zionists in their place’.

‘Expel the Jews’.

‘Boycott the Jews’.

Vance CHOSE not to prosecute major serial abusers like Weinstein and Hadden, he opposed the Rape is Rape bill as head of the DA’s association (now law) and he declined to go after Trump currently on trial. It's absolutely absurd to see him opining in the Times.

Nearly fainted to see The New York Times run an opinion piece by Cy Vance about “What it takes to keep men like Weinstein behind bars.” What a fucking insult to survivors everywhere. Vance hasn’t given up on trying to rewrite his legacy. I won’t give up on telling the truth either.

I mean, I think step one might be having the courage to prosecute them. 🤷🏻‍♀️ nytimes.com/2024/05/14/opi…

“Voting is fundamentally a political act of collective responsibility, where we weigh the impact of our individual choices on society at large. It’s not an act of personal expression, and it doesn’t necessarily feel good.”

So much yes ⁦Alexis Grenell⁩ thenation.com/article/politi…

I realize I don't talk about it much but part of my advocacy against targeted algorithms is driven by my feminism. Targeting girls with whatever is most addictive is disastrous. They should be in control, free to search, not profiled and barraged.
