JTA and Andrew Lapin

Almost as soon as the piece appeared online, it began drawing criticism from within the Guernica staff. Founded in 2004 partly in response to the Iraq War and named after Pablo Picasso's famous anti-war painting, the nonprofit magazine has long married literary bona fides and left-wing politics.

Joshua Gutterman Tranen, an anti-Zionist Jewish writer who has published in Guernica in the past, specifically pointed out a passage he found objectionable in which Chen briefly pauses her volunteer work after October 7, writing, "How could I continue after Hamas had massacred and kidnapped so many civilians, including Road to Recovery members, such as Vivian Silver, a longtime Canadian peace activist? And I have to admit, I was afraid for my own life."

"The moment in the Guernica essay where the Israeli writer – who never considers why Palestinian children don't have access to adequate healthcare b/c of colonization and apartheid – says she has to stop assisting them getting medical support because of 'Hamas,'" Tranen tweeted. "This is genocidal."

Chen's essay is not the first time progressive Jews and Israelis have been condemned for being insufficiently critical of Israel. The official movement to boycott Israel, for example, called for a boycott of Standing Together, an Israeli-Palestinian coexistence group that opposes the war, saying that the group promotes "normalization" of Israel. And when Haymarket Books, a left-wing publisher, recently announced a book co-authored by longtime leaders of the anti-Zionist group Jewish Voice for Peace, it drew sharp criticism on Instagram – in part because one author, who supports boycotting Israel, is married to an Israeli and has family members in Israel.

For some Jews who have questioned their place in progressive and literary spaces since October 7, Guernica's retraction offered new evidence of a toxic discourse in which no Israeli or Jew can pass muster.

"THIS is what was beyond the pale? This essay of nuance, lived experiences, fears, hopes, and continuing to strive in her own way for peace?" tweeted Sara Yael Hirschhorn, a historian of modern Israel who has written about her own struggle to sustain her liberal Zionist outlook after the attack, after reading the retracted piece. "Obviously this is just a bigoted decision about an Israeli and Jewish author … This virtual burning of books is bareknuckled antisemitism."

Emily Fox Kaplan, a Jewish writer who had shared the essay before it was retracted, wrote that she saw the criticism of Chen's essay as part of a much wider dynamic.

"The problem, when it really comes down to it, is that it presents an Israeli as human," she tweeted. "The people who are losing their minds about this want to believe that there are no civilians in Israel. They want a simple good guys/bad guys binary, and this creates cognitive dissonance."

Some non-Jewish writers also lamented the piece's retraction.

Matt Gallagher, a war correspondent who is also a veteran and who opposes the Israel-Hamas war, said his own work had benefited from reading thoughtful authors whose perspectives were different from his own.

"If you want the war in Gaza to end, as I do," he tweeted, "shouting down calm Israeli voices mulling the ruin of it all isn't going to help."

T9S main characters/ocs in my verse, the most to least petty, according to me.

(Inspired by @einsteinsugly. A lot of this will be verse lore.)

1. Ozzie (duh)

2. Nate (especially after finding out about gwikki)

2. Gwen/Nikki (both an equal amount of petty in order to push their loved ones away)

3. Jackie (even though she’s softened her edges, her pettiness will always be there)

4. Kristie (she’s a mix of Laurie AND Hyde, ‘nuff said)

5. Betsy (mostly when someone starts it tho and even then, it’s not as bad as Kristie)

6. Joanna (she loves to use her dad’s money to her advantage. Only perk of having him as a dad.)

7. Kitty (still has her moments)

8. Laurie (she got over that shit years ago when becoming a mom but still has those moments)

9. Leia (not petty per se, but can be passive aggressive when someone does her wrong)

10. Jay (he’s mostly just petty when it comes to fighting with his siblings)

11. Oak (The only time he’s truly petty is during the teacher incident)

12. Kelso (he’s way more mature but still has those moments)

13. Brooke (when she’s pissed, she’ll make it known. But it’s not a big thing.)

14. Red (it’s complicated. I feel like petty is a big part of his personality)

15. Hyde (like Megan said, more vengeful than petty)

16. Sarah (doesn’t have a petty bone in her body)

( this could be for an older, younger or same age Gideon)Has Gideon ever gotten some side eyes or people questioning his sanity when he falls in love and dates halley? Like she is the local cryptic and some people probs legit thought she was haunted or brought bad luck at the end every year at hogwarts..did his peers ever be like bro we didn’t think angel of death is your type? Or like she is not worth the trouble man, she is too damaged or broody ?

I haven’t thought much about it beyond the usual stuff.

But here are some books where the golden guy is dating the local cryptid! They really explore the concept better than I can!

Little Thieves by Margaret Owen - especially the second book!

The Scholomance by Naomi Novik

The Stolen Heir by Holly Black

The Luminaries by Susan Dennard

Violet Made of Thorns by Gina Chen

Juniper and Thorn by Ava Reid (please check the content warnings first!)

Into the Heartless Wood by Joanna Ruth Meyer

The Dark Vault by VE Schwab

The Wise and the Wicked by Rebecca Podos

Hey guys I hope everyone is doing great! X3 :D

I'm currently invested in a VN called @homecomingvn and I made an MC!

I would like to introduce you to...

Joanna Fay Chen but prefers to be called Jo or Joey!

She is 22-years-old and works at her family's business which is the local store called, Chen's Convenience.

Joey enjoys karaoke and playing DnD with Sandy when she gets the chance. She has a cat named Lucky, who she adores very much and spoils the heck out of.

She writes her own songs and plays the guitar which she will give lessons for.

Joey loves to hang out with her friends and tries her best to keep Henry and Lyra from killing each other.

Joey enjoys spending time with Elijah and his little sister and tries her best to not be a blushing mess when he's around.

She hopes to be a singer/songwriter someday.

Here's my drawing of Joey and I hope you guys like her! X3 :D

New Releases for the Week of June 13, 2022

Here are a few new releases coming your way this week--

The Silence That Binds Us by Joanna Ho HarperTeen

Maybelline Chen isn’t the Chinese Taiwanese American daughter her mother expects her to be. May prefers hoodies over dresses and wants to become a writer. When asked, her mom can’t come up with one specific reason for why she’s proud of her only daughter. May’s beloved brother, Danny, on the other hand, has just been admitted to Princeton. But Danny secretly struggles with depression, and when he dies by suicide, May’s world is shattered.

In the aftermath, racist accusations are hurled against May’s parents for putting too much “pressure” on him. May’s father tells her to keep her head down. Instead, May challenges these ugly stereotypes through her writing. Yet the consequences of speaking out run much deeper than anyone could foresee. Who gets to tell our stories, and who gets silenced? It’s up to May to take back the narrative.

Feather and Flame by Livia Blackburne Disney Hyperion

She brought honor on the battlefield. Now comes a new kind of war…

The war is over. Now a renowned hero, Mulan spends her days in her home village, training a militia of female warriors. The peace is a welcome one, and she knows it must be protected.

When Shang arrives with an invitation to the Imperial City, Mulan’s relatively peaceful life is upended once more. The aging emperor decrees that Mulan will be his heir to the throne. Such unimagined power and responsibility terrifies her, but who can say no to the Emperor?

As Mulan ascends into the halls of power, it becomes clear that not everyone is on her side. Her ministers undermine her, and the Huns sense a weakness in the throne. When hints of treachery appear even amongst those she considers friends, Mulan has no idea whom she can trust.

But the Queen’s Council helps Mulan uncover her true destiny. With renewed strength and the wisdom of those that came before her, Mulan will own her power, save her country, and prove once again that, crown or helmet, she was always meant to lead. This fierce reimagining of the girl who became a warrior blends fairy-tale lore and real history with a Disney twist.

The Loophole by Naz Kutub Bloomsbury YA

Sy is a timid seventeen-year-old queer Indian-Muslim boy who placed all his bets at happiness on his boyfriend Farouk…who then left him to try and “fix the world.” Sy was too chicken to take the plunge and travel with him and is now stuck in a dead-end coffee shop job. All Sy can do is wish for another chance…. Although he never expects his wish to be granted.

When a mysterious girl slams into (and slides down, streaks of make-up in her wake) the front entrance of the coffee shop, Sy helps her up and on her way. But then the girl offers him three wishes in exchange for his help, and after proving she can grant at least one wish with a funds transfer of a million dollars into Sy’s pitifully struggling bank account, a whole new world of possibility opens up. Is she magic? Or just rich? And when his father kicks him out after he is outed, does Sy have the courage to make his way from L. A., across the Atlantic Ocean, to lands he’d never even dreamed he could ever visit? Led by his potentially otherworldly new friend, can he track down his missing Farouk for one last, desperate chance at rebuilding his life and re-finding love?

“Psst, Justin, what’s the answer to number 3?”

"Don’t help him, Justin.”

“Shut up, Joanna.”

“What? It’s your fault for not doing any work yesterday. Maybe you deserve a bad grade. Like Ms. Chen says, if you cheat in school, you’re really cheating yourself.”

“Nerd.”

“Loser.”

“Guys, I can’t concentrate.”

“Shut up, Justin,” James and Joanna said in unison.

“Race you to school! Last one there’s a dumb loser.”

Hot Vintage TV Women's Bracket - List of the Ladies!

As promised below is a full list of all 130 women in the Hot Vintage TV Women's Tournament! Thank you to everyone who submitted their favs!

Just a brief bit of cleanup before the list. Thank you for all the submissions. If your submission didn't make it into the bracket or some of your propaganda isn't used know that I still appreciated the submission even if we weren't able to use it. Some things got cut for being outside the bounds of the tournament, some things got cut because the links were broken, etc. Anything I wasn't sure about got brought to family and friends for a second opinion. I did my best to keep as much in as possible but some things just ended up leaning too far outside of our criteria. If you notice some stuff that seems outside the criteria slip by it's because I tried to be very generous so as long as something wasn't obviously outside of our time period or rules I usually gave it a pass.

Anyway, I am working on the bracket as we speak and apologize in advance cause I don't think there's any way to make round 1 completely painless, as you'll see we have a pretty stacked line-up so I'm excited to see how things work out! Enjoy and see you all on Monday April 15th for round one of the Hot Vintage TV Women's Bracket!
