BREAKING: Israel's parliament has approved the death penalty BY HANGING as the default for Palestinians convicted of murdering Israelis

Meanwhile, multiple human rights orgs including Israeli orgs like B'TSalem confirm that Israelis kill Palestinians with impunity and face no accountabilty.

This is what apartheid looks like and shame on anyone gaslighting otherwise

My (relatively nuanced) take on #HarryPotter and my ask.

No amount of money you give Rowling matters. She makes money from deals and interest on her existing wealth far in excess of the take she will get from you purchasing her products. The ways that rich people make money off of you are too many to count, mostly will be invisible to you, and the amounts far outstrips any paltry sum you would give.

But.

This means that, while I don't care if you _buy_ it, my ask is much more difficult.

Don't watch the trailers.

Don't hate-watch it or watch people hate-reacting to it.

Don't watch content creators when they do covers of the music.

Don't participate in any viral trends that use the media.

Don't read reviews.

Don't check their social media accounts or press releases.

When do talk about it to scorn it, don't link to the material or use imagery or iconography from it.

Yes yes you shouldn't buy it. Others will judge you for buying it and I won't say that they are wrong to judge you for it. that's just not my ask. This is also _just_ my perspective.

Which is that what I care most about is denying it _mindshare_.

I want the property to vanish until it is only vaguely remembered, a footnote, and Rowling's only remaining legacy is her transphobia.

We just had a blizzard in the Northeast #USA and in #NYC a news reporter just wanted some empty chatter about the weather

But her interview subject had other ideas

Remember

This weight presses upon me every day. I am flooded with stories. There are so many I cannot remember them all; cannot keep straight who was gassed, beaten, abducted, or shot. I write to leave a record, to stare at the track of the tornado which tears through our city. I write to leave a warning. I write to call for help.

I Want You to Understand Chicago

@wardi
We'll have to set aside some time for mutual appreciation. ;)
@reddywhp
The Moment and Bad Wolf both were decently compelling, distinct from one another and Rose as characters, and did well in center stage. I'm willing to be cautiously optimistic (as though I've watched much at all since Capaldi)
@dkub
That's horrifying and wildly upsetting

A succinct explanation of the real goal behind anti-immigration policies: keeping immigrants terrified and submissive, so they’ll accept poverty wages and zero benefits without complaint.
