Anti science and antisemitism

What the first major study of the US rabbinate reveals - Jewish Telegraphic Agency The rabbinate is older, happier and more diverse than previously known, according to the study.

More (51%) non-Orthodox rabbinical students are queer or trans (LGBTQ) than NOT, according to a new survey.

12% are nonbinary (58% women, 30% men)

16% are Jews by choice

12% ID as a race other than white.

Thread.

I had the honor of making this painting for Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

How about... a falcon?

Antisemitism, like every form of bigotry, is *endemic* and you have to clean up your own backyard before you start pointing at your neighbor's mess

Like you guys really think that the left has lingering problems with racism and homophobia and transphobia and sexism and Islamophobia but is totally unproblematic when it comes to the Jews?

Not being able to taste ANYTHING is so bad y’all. Food is so unappealing.

Today is a good day to remember, and to say, that the #MeToo movement was right, and was righteous, and has been vindicated over and over again. There was no overreach. There was no excess. There was no they-went-too-far.

So much work remains to be done.

I feel like I'm taking crazy pills: the emails from Landon Thomas has his New York Times signature block...he was employed by NY Times at the time. He was communicating directly with Epstein about Trump, and was given incriminating information about Trump. It's been in NYT's possession since 2015

The physical abuse of children by adult men is an actual plank of all right-wing political thought, a thing they believe in strongly and govern to enable, not just something thousands of them happen to do. Fascism is a politics of violent mastery and no one's easier to do that to than a child.

Update: it’s probably Covid :’)

a traditional pen and ink drawing of a coyote looking upwards with eyes wide and mouth slightly open. a burst of color in white, yellow, orange, pink, and blue (painted in gouache) imperfectly bisects its head

how does one ask for kindness?

Something that it’s important to note about disability; Even if you are not currently disabled, if you live for long enough, you will become so. It is inevitable. Fighting for the rights of disabled people is not only the right thing to do, it also benefits your future self

ink and watercolor painting of two dogs in a gentle, tender embrace. one dog is white, the other is red. within the white dog is an exposed heart. the heart and the red dog have the same color palette. it is to represent vulnerability in tender intimacy, and bravely opening oneself to another and desire to feel unity with another individual.

piece of a decaying buck with odd proportions and a skull face

A big cat character made of dough-like flesh that is struggling to stick to reanimated bones

A skeletal creature dripping black liquid from its ribs. It’s red skull face unhinged

Weird creature pulling at its face flesh

A greyscale illustration of four animals; a unicorn, coyote, wolf, and werewolf. The figures float against a white background, the wolf, were, and coyote are bursting and seeping from the unicorn's spine, who cranes her head down toward her outstretched hoof. The coyote and wolf are positioned between the unicorn and the werewolf's large form, the were has one fore submerged in the unicorns back, and its other sits hovering near the wolf as if it were about to loop it around the wolf and hold it close. The wolf has its head turned up almost sitting in the crook of the werewolf's shoulder and neck. Its paws float relaxed. The coyote emerges from the unicorn below the wolf, its upper body curves to follow the slope of the unicorns neck, and the silhouettes of it its hinds can be seen spouting from the belly of the unicorn. Its forepaws steady itself on her neck, one paw tangled in the unicorn's flowing mane. It wears a radio collar. The wolf, were, and unicorn all hold their relaxed heads either upwards or down, their eyes are closed. The coyote, who looks poised to pull itself out of the unicorn entirely, has its eyes open, and its lowered head looks forward, it meets the viewers gaze knowingly and directly.

As soon as I get the Avatar out of this iceberg he will surely save our village from the Fire Nation!

I’m tired y’all.

Idk how to drill it through the thick skulls of some people that dismantling Zionism and dismantling antisemitism are the same fight.

Positioning Zionism as a Special Corrupting Outside Force on the American body politic — rather than a bog-standard (if unusually successful!) ethnonationalist lobby — is an antisemitic argument. And as a non-zionist Jew I am not going to run cover for it
