This took me a whole month to read bc it was heavy AF, but wow. Haunted and wrenching.

That is such a fantastic image!
Yeah it doesnβt sound *cheery* for sure; good to hear, thx
Oh, nice!
Ok so Iβve read enough fawning takes on Hamnet the book now that thereβs a movie coming out, but not from people and writers I know/trust and Iβm suspicious that theyβre moving-coming-out-publicity fawning takes: have any of you read it? Whatβd you think?
Sure is.

I was in a 2 hour briefing today on the Iran War. All the briefings are closed, because Trump can't defend this war in public.
I obviously can't disclose classified info, but you deserve to know how incoherent and incomplete these war plans are.
1/ Here's what I can share:
Yup. Russia has been ruled by Putin for a quarter century (and mostly supports the war on Ukraine) but folks arenβt saying Russians as individuals are evil, etc. Same for China/Chinese ppl & Uyghurs, etc.
So much, and the βdarkβ (and coincidentally also bad) people to the south and east! The races! The Hobbits getting to their happy ending by ethnically cleansing Hobbiton π«
Totally!
(And good on your FIL & you guys β€οΈ)
Absolutely fuck them.
The ADL needs to:
* STFU and disband and never be seen again
-or-
* get hostilely taken over by someone who gives a shit about anti defamation, FFS.
Man, I had to unfollow and block a person I liked on here bc they slid right past protesting Israelβs actions and right into full-on anti-Jewish conspiracies. (Apparently itβs now nefarious that Judaism is a religion and an ethnicity.)
Many such cases, I know, but each one feels sad.
He definitely looks like heβs gearing up for some hate speech. π΅βπ«
No bc Arab and Muslim are two different things, whereas Jewish and Jewishβ¦ arenβt.
I donβt know anything about how Israel classifies things. Iβm Jewish and also atheist, as is most of my momβs family; it is an ethnicity for us and many Jews, not so much a religion. Iβm Jewish but not Israeliβso your question really doesnβt make any sense to me.
*same*
Whoβs βtheyβ? Ethnicity is about culture, not necessarily race. Also, if you know anything about the process of conversion to Judaism, it really is a primer on a culture, not just a religion.
He earned this one.
Just 100% serving angry white man here
He has been a piece of shit for decades.
Also, not necessarily unrelatedly? he looks like Alitoβs sibling in this photo.
Well, thereβs Judaism.
This is the best thing I have read today by far. I love your grandma in law, and obviously this is what mine is for too!
This is exactly what I saw in my feed and ofc I clicked thru to see wtf that was about π
Yeah mom out there showing how itβs done!
