Watching Israel destroy the land & waters of Gaza I am reminded of Tiffany Lethobo King's observation that the 'defining feature of colonization is genocide, not settlement. Settlement comes later, after the land has been made empty'

The land remembers. And it won't forgive you

By the standards of the House resolution, tens of thousands of anti-Zionist Holocaust victims would be considered antisemitic.

It would be like if you went to a film festival and they paired the Oscar winning documentary with a reality tv show and a late night talk show and just called it all “visual storytelling” …and then made them justify their business models/audience numbers to each other. 3/4

In all seriousness, gimlet totally bought into the tech model of unlimited growth and then sold to a company that did too, and fucked up literally thousands of careers in the process. I remember when Gimlet hit 65 people I said “this place is too big” - they added 100 more.

There were good, successful shows there. All the company needed to do was grow deliberately. Instead the owners cashed out and disappeared and everyone else was holding the bag. This fucking sucks.

News is supposed to question what power tells us and dig til we find the truth. It is not accepting IDF propaganda at face value and punishing journalists who dare to speak up.

Maybe we should spend another month wringing our fucking hands about the precise definition while thousands more people are murdered?

I mean, it would be terrible if we stopped the wholesale slaughter of innocent civilians and then decided it wasn’t *technically* a genocide.

Being 'inspired' by disabled people is not the same as accepting us, respecting us, or actually putting a single shred of work in to understand us and what we need.

I think some of the reactions I've seen re. Tasha in Bake Off, and her choice to sign rather than speak, from a country that professed to love Rose on Strictly, really lay bare the gulf between 'awareness' - and abled people feeling 'inspired' - and genuine acceptance and equity.
