A democratic candidate just won in the *checks notes*

Arkansas state house special election.

Flip from R to D.

Some good today: a South Dakota bill that would force teachers to out students their parents has failed in the legislature and will not be reconsidered during this session.

And in other reports, there is a lot of angst and frustration with NTs expectations.

Tricky and volatile stuff.

One report I have is an ADHD guy saying they can't remembe and "just need everyone to remind me."

Which as you can guess strikes others--disabled and abled--as them wanting a nanny or personal secretary.

They aren't offering any solutions or alternatives other than offload it onto others.

Who has cool, accessible for normies, writing on neurodivergence and systems of dIsability liberation/access/support?

We have a community convo coming up about "accomodations" because critical tasks are not getting done, causing community impact from goats not being fed to damage of vehicles.

American Jews have been TRYING to tell folks that yes, AIPAC is evil, & fuck them, but Christian Zionists in the US outnumber Jews IN THE WORLD & have risen to power in all areas of our government, & they want to bring the End Times (& kill all the Jews btw), AND THIS IS WHAT WE WERE TALKING ABOUT.

How exactly do you today, after all the campus protests and blowback, says Jews haven't been called anti-semitic for critiquing Israel, Zionism, or it's US elements in APAIC, etc.

Why are you asking Jews for proof of that?

getting hired as a high-level administrator or bureau director at the City of Portland is a great investment strategy because you get paid *a lot* and if you fail at your job / or get run out for being perceived as too dangerous, you will probably get a year long severance

Interesting thread from a medievalist.

There is no prejudice to say you are flat out wrong that anti-Zionist Jews don't face anti-semitism for their stance. In fact, it is so counterfactual to be ignorant.

They are.

baseless assertion.

Yes totally, I see, famously there are not non-Zionist or anti-Zionist Jews. I represent them all and bsky is the only place I talk.

There's no such group as Jewish Voices for Peace who organized with pro-Palestine groups. No polls showing opposition.

Srsly. No Jew needs you

I criticize Zionism and Israel dumbshit and I'm a Jew, that's how.

I was so sad to learn I was too old for it.

I'm fascinated not that I ever went.

YouTube video by Best Ever Food Review Show American Eats IRAN!! RARE MiddleEastern Food Tour!! (Full Documentary)

I keep thinking about (of all things!) YouTube's Best Ever Food Review Show, and the warm welcome that Sonny and his crew got in Iran... it made me want to visit.

Kind, hospitable people of an ancient, still-living culture who treat us, their "enemies" as neighbors. www.youtube.com/watch?v=lm4J...

History has shown that despite all the hand-wringing, Portland was one of the few places in the US that understood the gravity of the growing right wing threat and acted with the appropriate urgency about it going back to Trump’s first term.

Folks who thought it was a passing phenomenon were wrong.

First, us Jews do face anti-semitism for criticism of APAIC and opposing Zionism. So you are flat out wrong.

Jews don't have to be the ones talking about APAIC. It's funded by white Christian Nationalists. Go talk to your own and wrangle them.

One of the core challenges for anyone doing liberatory work is figuring out how to meet people where they're at while simultaneously remaining principled and decent.

There is a difference between absolving the complicit and patiently finding a path to help folks recognize and end their complicity.

Realizing again how amped up a month plus of Minneapolis is in my body, despite that I am not there. Proud of my regulation this week of not engaging firestorm posts.

I know a lot is going on, but I just wanna say everyone looked so beautiful at the NAACP Image Awards in what felt like a clear-throated and visual rebuke of the BAFTAs. Self-regard and self-presentation are powerful.

Pots syndrome dysautonomia Jamie Ocf Problem is, the covid jab IS COVID. Its not a virus, its bioweapon. that is the truth people need to look square in the eye and accept. Have you not seen the epstein files? It's all coming out about how coNvid was staged, amongst many other atrocities. If you can't look or accept it, then you are remaining in the trauma loop of denial. 146 comments

The POTs FB groups keeps getting antivaxxers despite the topic of Covid vaccines as banned. I know about the new age health being a pipeline to MAHA, but now I'm wondering more specifically about "rare" disease communities.

I blissfully passed by the white guy shouting aren't you voters glad. I'm sure the numerous replies has got it.

Additionally, I want to speak directly to Iranian New Yorkers: you are part of the fabric of this city — you are our neighbors, small business owners, students, artists, workers, and community leaders. You will be safe here.
