Best of all: occupation of #Waterloo station by #BlackJewishAlliance and comrades to match yesterday in New York at Grand Central.
@Chalkllate Doesn’t look like #Ivory has that option.
@Chalkllate For some reason, I’m not seeing any of your pictures.
@Nonilex I’m still trying to figure out what the Gaza Health Ministry is, who runs it, and when it was established. So far it appears to have popped up overnight.

Bernie Sanders getting screamed at by Chinese state media for commemorating a synagogue massacre in Pittsburgh by a right-wing terrorist tells you much of what you need to know about the current state of geopolitics.

Please boost! UMN Duluth CS is hiring for a tenure-track position -- all areas of CS are open, but we are especially interested in folks working on the CS side of neurorobotics. We strongly value teaching *and* research (2/2 load), and, because we value diversity of all kinds and dislike implicit bias, we're using an anonymized search process. You can find our job site here:

Read on for why I think UMN Duluth CS is a great place to teach and research.
@Chalkllate Oh, they were already cut up and made in the cheese!
@Chalkllate I bought a package of Carolina reaper cheese the other day. Holy hell! I was able to eat a quarter of a slice. Can’t wait to throw a piece into some Mac ‘n cheese though!
@Chalkllate They are! Check the alt text.

There is a challenge that we have, all Jews, with the way in which antisemites have come into the conversation and scream the loudest, mixing legitimate critiques of Israeli policy with antisemitism, disregard for Israeli lives, delegitimization, demonization, and double standards for Israel.
This "muddies the water" and makes it more challenging to determine what is and is not hate speech.
Right now, Jews are suffering. Jews in Israel are under multiple threats, with 500,000 evacuated from their homes, rockets hitting apartment buildings, and the threat of an uprising in Israel.
Hundreds of hostages are still unaccounted for.
And around the world, antisemitism is surging, on top of the 10 year rise that we've already seen.
Jews are hurting. Jews are crying. Jews are scared.
There is room for disagreement and dissent, but without acknowledging the suffering from our own community, it can feel cold, callous, and unfeeling.

Since Republicans are so obsessed with the word "abortion, I think we should drop the moniker altogether and put up clinics that say "Mother's health and safety procedures" instead.
