I love my people, and seeing people with visceral hatred for the Jewish people use Jewish lineage as a shield from criticism as they actively work to build hate for Jews, is about the most disgusting behaviour I see.

Being a bigender monosexual suuuucks sometimes

I see people just expecting us to bend over backwards about our labels, lest we brandished as a heretic within the queer community, because we're supposedly doing gender and sexuality wrong

Like, I'm sure people have said this over and over and wayyyy more eloquently than I do, but multigender lesbians and multigender gays aren't tainting or contaminating your lesbianhood/gayhood just because they're the """"""opposite gender"""""" of the supposed sexuality they identify with!!

Like whatever happens with "queer as in fuck you and your dichotomy in sexuality and gender"? I thought being queer is about not being boxed in?? But no, everyone and their mom lose their shit when they see someone who is too weird to be properly queer; being considered "oxymoron" "contradictory" "not making sense" or worse, "harmful"

These kinds of transmultiphobia is what makes me unhappy with my gender and sexuality, so much that I'm ruminating over it, because I thought I cannot ever be both a gay man and a straight woman at the same time, for me to be considered "valid" within the larger mainstream queer community

It makes me feel like I'm too weird to even be queer, too quirky, too mentally ill, too harmful to be queer

And I don't know how to shake these feelings off, now that I live in a queerphobic country and most of my local queer spaces doesn't even acknowleges bigender people....

Felt like I'm just making shit up

begging you guys to use eldritch instead of "biblically accurate"

It's really amazing how strongly "Andor" comes out against the kind of purity politics you see in leftist circles. Its characters seem almost deliberately designed to be the kinds of "problematic" tropes that would get criticized by left-leaning cultural commentators.

Luthen's day job is selling the stolen cultural artifacts from the victims of imperialism.

Mon Mothma is one of his customers as well as a mainstream liberal politician from a rich old-money family.

Kino Loy is basically a slave overseer or sonderkommando.

Lieutenant Gorn is a colonizer who fell in love with one of the colonized and switched sides.

Tay Kolma is a rich banker who works with mobsters like Davo Sculdun.

Saw Gerrera is so paralyzed by ideological purity that he just sits around in his cave, underfunded, not really accomplishing anything. Team Luthen, on the other hand, welcomes anyone who hates the Empire regardless of their ideologies or motivations so they actually get things done.

The ultimate theme of "Andor" is that if you want to fight fascism, don't get picky about who you work with or where you get your money from.

I'm always frustrated by people who imagine complex systems in our society can be replaced by Mutual Aid, and build their entire post revolutionary fantasy on that idea... Real medical care for instance can't ever be replaced by Mutual Aid

Without access to MRI, dialysis, and cutting edge medicine I would have been dead back in August of 2024... If I lost access to my medical treatments I would be dead in a couple of months.

At least most Israelis can simply use their 2nd passport to go back to their original county and return after their army is done massacring as many Palestinians as they can so that they can continue living in their stolen homes, so its not that bad.

You said "original country" and suddenly I cant read

Sometimes I'm so sure of G-d's prescense and immanence I feel like I can taste Them in the air, feel the prickle on my skin. Other times I feel G-d only as an absence- like a freshly lost tooth, the gums still bleeding

We need a name for the distinct Jewish tradition of feminism- both as a response to the antisemitism inherent in white feminism as well as in response to mainline feminists denying the rape and sexual assault of Jews during the Simchat Torah massacre and in Hamas captivity.

I've decided to term this judeofeminism for now, but I support the emergence of other terms for this tendency.

Like how womanist is to feminist as purple is to lavender, judeofeminist is to feminist as purple is to periwinkle.

I loved The Gifted but also it's like the single handedly worst xmen thing out there😭😭😭

Wanting to overthrow the US to create a mutant ethnostate (species-state?) In it's territory is Bad. But like. It's such a strawman of like real liberation struggles yk

Esp bc mutants are supposed to be an allegory
