You know, the Richard Spencer getting punched thing has made it VERY clear which groups of people I’m not actually safe around, if push comes to shove.  People who had SAID that they’d defend Jewish people, or even promised that, if shit hit the fan, they’d hide me, have said that this was inexcusable, and now I’m not wasting emotional energy on them.  Because they won’t.

If you think you’d have hidden Jews during the Holocaust, but think that punching Richard Spencer was “inexcusable,” then you’re kidding yourself.

still, pretty cool to know that whilst the far right is organising across borders to influence elections the left is arguing with idiot liberals for the millionth time about why it’s ok to punch nazis

Hey how much longer do you think it is before trump bans any sort of online free speech that is derogatory to him by citing the “clear and present danger” free speech restrictions of world war one, by saying that everyone who slightly criticizes him online is in cahoots with ISIS or something. anyone wanna place bets i’m saying a year in

It is SO annoying when people go “har har har Islam isn’t a race.” Yeah, Islam isn’t a race, I’m not gonna argue that it is. But I know what you’re saying when you say you hate Muslims. You’re not imagining white, blonde, pale people– you’re imaging brown and black people. You’re imaging POC. And since the average person in the West seems to equate Muslim with Arab, you’re also probably thinking of an Arab. 

Islamophobia is racialized. Yes, if you say you hate Muslims, I’m going to assume you’re racist. Fucking deal.

Autism is NOT a bad word

Autism is not a death sentence. Autism is not the end of your child’s future. Autism is not a tragedy or a curse. Autism does not mean lesser or worse. Autism does not need to be whispered in shame.

this post is going to sound corny and over the top tumblr angry™ especially given the format but please take me a little bit seriously: when 43+ bomb threats have been called in to synagogues, JCCs, and religious schools in a mere two week period irl, when people were planning an armed march against jewish people existing in a town, when nazis are having a field day out there since the election, and a self proclaimed antisemite is nominated to be chief strategist, when I have seen jewish personhood casually debated on news channels that aren’t even Fox or some shit, when WWII antisemitic rhetoric is getting repeated by politicians verbatim in speeches, and everyone has to hear nazi germany coded language about the jewish media conspiracy every day, all of the above means jewish people probably do not have any more patience to listen to people on tumblr opening their mouths on judaism in any way when they should not be. 

if you are not jewish and you feel entitled enough to do the following (these are all things I’ve seen in the past month done by various relatively popular non jewish bloggers)….

define ethnic, cultural, and/or religious judaism and make yourself the authority on those lines

police/judge how jews with complex jewish identities talk about and interact with those identities (mixed ethnic jews, ethnic jews with complicated or no religious background, jewish adoptees, patrilineal jews, jewish converts, secular jews, jews who recently found out about their jewishness, etc) 

make posts mocking how jews word their experiences about their jewishness

cast judgement on whether or not a jew “looks” ethnic or religious enough to face antisemitism

decry someone for punching a neonazi in the face

use the unjust situation in palestine as an excuse to condone bomb threats buildings full of jewish people including children have been getting 

use jews as political props in general or reduce our issues to one political issue

insert yourself into a situation where a jew is calling another jew on something and deciding to use the jew who behaved badly as a reason to make posts about how you’re “uncomfortable with jews” 

tell jews how we can and cannot use words in jewish languages 

congrats, you now owe your local antifa $$$. also, the unfollow button is pretty noticeable, please make use of it. you don’t get to benefit from hearing and reblogging my thoughts, emotions, or jokes at this time if you’re going to act those ways. (those things should never be acceptable but especially under the current climate, if you needed any incentive to knock it the fuck off now is the time)

All the links from the White House website are gone, but the Affordable Care Act is still in effect, and you can sign up for health insurance until January 31.

Trump and his cronies may want to kill it, but that takes time (especially now that key players are waffling and the insurance industry have noticed that it will rain chaos down upon them). So sign yourself up. Get in a free checkup, a round of antibiotics, a birth control implant, while you have the chance.

If anyone needs help applying, ping me.

Todavía puede inscribirle en Obamacare. Si necesita auyuda, pídame.
