Melhem Asad is one of the Righteous Among the Nations.

When the Dutch police were standing idly by -- or worse, aiding and abetting terrorists -- and allowing Jews to be violently pogrommed, Melhem was RISKING HIS LIFE to protect Jews.

The Amsterdam police colluded with these terrorists to allow this pogrom to happen on the 86th anniversary of Kristallnacht. The Netherlands allowed a pogrom against Jews to take place in Amsterdam, the same city where the Dutch sent over 100,000 Jews, including Anne Frank, to their deaths in Nazi concentration camps.

Melhem helped protect our people from that attempted massacre and hostage taking.

Mr. Rogers once told us, "When I was a boy and I would see scary things in the news, my mother would say to me, 'Look for the helpers. You will always find people who are helping'."

Melhem is a helper. He shielded our people and helped rescue them from kidnapping and murder. He is a hero.

EARNEST POSTING. while everyone is still working on new year’s resolutions i want to make sure everyone knows about the FREE serial reader app.

if you are trying to read more classics/public domain works but for whatever reason struggle with incorporating reading into your daily life, or you’re just intimidated by huge books, serial reader is a great tool to make reading more approachable. it works much like dracula daily in that it sends you one excerpt at a time (usually about 10-15 minutes of estimated reading time). awesome for commutes, lunch breaks, quick bedtime story, etc.

it’s very customizable. you can change fonts, themes, and you can even take notes and highlight. you can also sync with other reading apps like goodreads (no storygraph yet……. we can hope!). the base app is completely free, but there is a one-time optional upgrade fee of $2.99 USD if you want some extra features. this is all developed by one guy, so the money goes to supporting the creator - although i’m sure apple takes their cut 😑.

there are a ton of works to choose from, currently something like 800+.

you can now also add your own .epubs to break up your own books into daily serials! very cool, serial reader!

this was the best app i added last year so i just want to pass it on. happy reading! :)

There's a post going around Tumblr about how if you're post-menopausal and have bleeding, you should get it checked by your doctor. I brought some minor bleeding I'd had up in a doctor visit earlier this year, prompted by that post, and this week, after a biopsy, I found out I have cancer. It's early stage and the survival odds at 5 years are 99%. I have an oncologist appointment and we may have caught it early enough that surgery alone will be sufficient treatment (no radiation/chemo).

So that post may have saved my life and it may have made my treatment a lot easier too.

If you get into menopause and then start bleeding again, really, get your reproductive innards checked out. The life you save may be your own.

Just saw a post that was basically "Hey off of the internet people usually aren't so crazy antisemitic and most of my day to day interactions as a visible Jew are normal, everything is gonna be ok" and I'm making a new post to not derail, but...

I'm super glad, obviously, that this is the case for many of you. But I do think we should be ringing the alarm bells. Because while you enjoy your grocery trips and post office in relative peace (as you ought to), here is a VERY incomplete list of things I have dealt with in the last 11 months.

-assaulted on my way to class, followed, spit on repeatedly (magen David necklace)

-professor took me outside of class and told me I needed to denounce my Judaism (I mentioned in passing my dad's family in an anthropology class)

-same professor refused to accept my final paper for reasons that did not match up with paper, email full of dogwhistles

-same professor told everyone to attend the protests and "teach those zionists to know their place" she is a Black Latina young professor. Yep.

-another professor straight up refused to accept any assignments that mentioned Jewishness (they were assignments about our families). Gave a student who submitted nothing except a picture of a Palestinian flag full marks. Failed me. I am an all As student, btw. Forced to drop.

-the chair of the anthropology department threw my complaints wabout said professors away without due process. His social media is full of blood libel.

-had to miss my finals as I could not physically get to them due to the protests

-followed and harassed in stores

-synagogue was vandalized multiple times

-called a kike while things were thrown at me

-protestors stood outside of my apartment patio with final solution signs

-new apartment, away from campus: friends of roommates harassed me constantly, to the point I could not use common spaces. Roommates told me that's his right because it's his "political view." He didn't even live there.

-new roommate moved in, less than 48 hours before she attempts to stab me, after learning I eat kosher style. "...kosher? kosher?! FUCK YOU" stab stab, etc. Bitch that was my good knife.

-the other roommates tell me to gtfo of the home I'm renting, keeping my rent ("you people can afford to lose money") and destroy a good portion of my belongings while cursing to me random nonsense about Israel. The police took 25 minutes to get there. We live in the middle of the city.

-fun fact: I had never mentioned my political stance to these people and it's not on my face-out social media (very bare bones profiles)

-been disbelieved by everyone I told this to including the police, my school, the leasing company, and my now ex best friend of 7 years

-cursed at in a store when I asked if there was a kosher section

-told nobody likes Jews because we bring down the vibe and have a victim complex. My knuckles are healing just fine after that, btw, thank you for asking! She is not.

I don't know how to request the 7th off from my school without basically incriminating myself with a threat of violence. There is no world where I just sit there when a classmate says "happy October 7th."

Hope this helps.

Happy Halloween from Christine Rose And Phantom Ten

So I'm on episode 6: Dalek and the one thing that has always stood out to me in this episode is the sheer compassion Rose shows. Yes she doesn't know what a Dalek is, the Doctor has never mentioned them or told her about them but her first instinct is to help and comfort this being she just saw be tortured.

She see's this hard metal thing, it doesn't look organic in any sense of the word, every other alien she has seen has had a more organic look to them compared to a Dalek. She asks if it's okay and if it's in pain, she reaches out to connect and comfort this cold inanimate object looking being.

Her sheer ability to empathize with others is so rooted into her very being that it changed the Dalek. Which has me wondering how much of Rose was always Bad Wolf from the very start of s1? I seriously love this season and how they interwove the story through out the episodes and I will always wish they delved more into how Bad Wolf could have changed Rose through out their adventures.

goyim need to just remove the words “hitler,” “nazi,” “concentration camp,” and “holocaust” from their collective consciousness and vocabulary.

especially since the majority of non jews (and non roma) never learn a thing about the shoah or jewish history (or romani history). they don’t give a shit. they don’t think any of it’s worth knowing about unless they can somehow use it to cause further harm and hurt jews more.

(js you fucking idiots know: JEWS AND ROMA WERE THE TWO GROUPS TARGETED FOR COMPLETE EXTINCTION. not gay people, not trans people, not ARABS (they were allies with hitler), not slavs. JEWS. AND. ROMANI/SINTI. i don’t see you fuckfaces accusing roma of genocide though so i’m making this about my people: jews.)

the shoah doesn’t belong to any of you. you aren’t living with its effects and generational trauma. the sheer loss of live. the continuing prejudice and hatred that YOU FUCKING MORONS SHOULD HAVE LEARNED FROM AND STOPPED. you don’t learn anything about it, you can’t tell the difference between a fascist and a nazi, and i bet your cultural christian asses grew up thinking hitler must have had some excuse for what he did.

you know how often i heard that as a kid and teenager from christian children??

the things is: hitler didn’t act alone. he was aided by an entire society of people who hated jews and roma. he was helped by SYSTEMIC antisemitism that was thousands of years old. he was part of a society built on jew hate. and he didn’t even come up with the Final Solution. that was HIMMLER. and he was the same as hitler: from a society that normalized and thrived on bigotry against jews.

the holocaust was a CULMINATION of over a thousand years of hate, not an isolated event. antisemitism around the world is the oldest prejudice.

the holocaust was a machine of death. a uniquely horrifying series of events.

non jews and non roma do not own the imagery. you don’t own the references. IT ISN’T YOURS.

you don’t get to call everyone you hate or disagree with nazis, and you certainly don’t get to label everything you find awful a new holocaust. it doesn’t work that way, and doing so is disgusting.

it shows how little you actually care.

goyim have labeled everything from gaza to fucking FACTORY FARMING new holocausts. FARMING.

you don’t get to use it. you don’t get to label anything a holocaust. and you certainly don’t get to use those atrocities against the people the nazis fucking slaughtered, gassed, shot over pits, made into lampshades, raped, massacred, pogromed, experimented on, oppressed, and NEARLY FUCKING ANNIHILATED.

it’s bad enough you are all siding with groups who want to finish the fucking job, but now you think you can steal our trauma from us and use it against us?

there are less jews in the world today than there were in 1939, but you hate us and our one country so much that you’d believe anything awful about us without a single question in your shitty minds as long as you have an excuse. you’d gladly watch another ACTUAL shoah happen to us.

FUCK YOU. this is all purposeful cruelty and you are all evil.
