Israel is an apartheid state that unjustly occupies Palestinian land.
Israel is a Jewish state.
Jews worldwide do not bear the responsibility of the Israeli army or government.
The American government backs Israel, largely because of the efforts of evangelical Christian lobbyists. Wether or not Jewish Americans want this is irrelevant to the USA military.
The American government is rooted in white supremacy and antisemitism, and is constantly verging on Christian theocracy.
Criticism of Israel, while necessary, can very easily be co-opted into antisemitism. It needs to be handled carefully.
We can expect both antisemitic and Islamophobic hate crimes to spike in the coming weeks.
Jews and Muslims are not enemies. We have to remember that and stand up for each other.
Bugs Bunny could have simply walked into Mordor. He would have shown up at the gates of Mordor in a disguise and been like "Evil volcano inspection unit" and flashed a fake ID badge to the confused orc.
I still think this is one of the hardest scenes he's ever had to do because he had to act like he hated the dogs and didn't want to crouch down and give them belly rubs.
Chris Evans surprises shelter dogs with cuddles and treats to celebrate National Dog Day ♥️🐾
“We chose the term “asexual” to describe ourselves because both “celibate” and “anti-sexual” have connotations we wished to avoid: the first implies that one has sacrificed sexuality for some higher good, the second that sexuality is degrading or somehow inherently bad. “Asexual”, as we use it, does not mean “without sex” but “relating sexually to no one”. This does not, of course, exclude masturbation but implies that if one has sexual feelings they do not require another person for their expression. Asexuality is, simply, self-contained sexuality.”
— The Asexual Manifesto, Lisa Orlando and Barbara Getz, 1972
Flashback to that time in college when I really, REALLY needed to stay awake to finish a paper so I drank 2 liters of coke and took 2 caffeine pills and then I woke up on my laptop several hours later
"Dont drink coffee after 2 PM" is such a neurotypical issue that sounds made up. Such a thing couldnt happen to me, ADHD Georg, who has coffee past 9:30 PM and can still fall asleep freely because I have a natural toxicity resistance to caffeine.
