MORE NAMES TO KNOW

Tina Bell: frontwoman of the band Bam Bam, often called the Godmother of grunge because of its influence. Racism within the scene has led to her influence being pretty extensively erased but her bandmate and lifelong friend Scotty Buttocks has been working hard to counteract that by doing press and preserving their music here. Kurt fucking Cobain was their roadie

Betty Davis: 70s funk rock legend who just recently passed away. Incredibly unique performer that was way ahead of her time. Not to be confused with Bette Davis.

Sistah Grrrl Riots: A black punk collective put together in response to alienation and racism in the 90s punk and riot grrrl scenes. Organized by legends Tamar-Kali Brown, Honeychild Coleman, Maya Glick, and Simi Stone. You can read more about sistah grrrl in this article.

Ronnie Spector: Frontwoman of the Ronettes and rock n roll pioneer. Black girl groups were a huge influence on the sound of Rock n Roll as we know it from The Beatles to Led Zepplin to the Rolling Stones. She recently passed but her autobiography came out last year and it's worth the read.

Thought: Antizionists overuse the word "genocide" the same way that social conservatives overuse "pedophile".

In both cases, it's to demonize the opponent, and end the conversation (because "you're defending genocide/pedophilia" if you try to argue). The fact that it weakens important words with actual definitions with that sort of hyperbole doesn't matter to the person throwing them around.

And it's like... "oh, someone's a 'pedophile', you say? Did they teach science to kids, Exist While Queer, or ship the wrong cartoon characters?" instead of being the incredibly serious accusation it should be.

And similarly... "Oh, Israel is committing 'genocide', you say? Did they send in hundreds of aid trucks, give Gaza access to Israeli utilities, or give work permits to tens of thousands of Palestinians to work in Israel as foreign nationals?"

And these constant accusations of genocide extends well back before the 7/10 massacre. Decades. It's past the point of "crying wolf".

And as I've said elsewhere... Leftists use "Zionist" the way that Right-wingers use "Woke". This is just part of that pattern.

Things can be bad and worthy of condemnation without baselessly reaching for the biggest and nastiest word for the purposes of demonizing your opponent.

I'm honestly tired of being demonized for the act of "telling people to stop exaggerating Israel's real life bad acts". I don't support Netanyahu. I don't support the West Bank settlements. I most certainly do not want the Palestinian population of Gaza to be pushed out and made into refugees, much less wiped out, as many people think is happening.

But it's not. Even Hamas' own mouthpiece doesn't say that they are being wiped out.

And apparently going, "Hey, it's not a genocide, it doesn't fulfill the criteria, even Hamas isn't claiming that it is, and you insisting that it is a genocide, it Is! I don't care what the facts say! runs into some vicious antisemitic narratives" is me being an apologist for the Israeli government and I might as well be one of Netanyahu's personal aides from the reactions I've gotten, including from some people I thought knew better.

The bias--the hypocrisy--is horrendous and vile.

And ironically just makes me support the idea of Israel even more, just out of practicality--because I've had it rubbed in my face that my acceptance as a Jew is conditional in the extreme.

A lil war surrealism for yall:

I've had lots of surreal experiences in my almost-decade of being an archaeologist but I honestly never imagined I'd experience neither a Genocide 2: Arab Boogaloo nor working in the field as that's happening, as if everythings fine and Normal(TM). My current project is somewhere on the fringes of cities to middle of nowhere, center-south. We can sometimes hear distant explosions, coming from the romantic meeting between this or that Qassam warhead and the iron dome, or from the shelling of Gaza itself. We don't get any sirens here because middle of nowhere fringe and all that, and honestly I don't think any shelling of this area would even be reported because we're sort of close to several sensitive venues (dw, they're civilian. I ain't growing no tails next to Dimona).

So this happened last week and I'm still having a hard time letting go. I was digging in my square minding my bsns to the sound of absolute silence intermittently broken by the wind and some birds. Soon enough we started hearing distant explosions which sound like iron dome interceptions, quickly turning into very loud explosions that sound like warheads intercepting the ground. When absent a bomb shelter the best thing you can do is either lie down flat on the ground or find a "safe pit" (that isn't made of brittle rock or soil type that could collapse inward upon impact, burying you alive), so naturally I jumped down into the 3m pit I was previously digging. The funny thing about digging up ancient graveyards is that at some point you sort of forget you're digging up an ancient graveyard, so the fact that the pit I just jumped into was exactly that - someone's tomb, completely escaped my brain. It's a narrow, small pit, like 1.5x1.5m in total, so getting comfy in there is almost impossible, especially with Some Guy (or girl!) lying around. Oh yeah, bestie was still there. The uh interesting thing about Israeli law is that bones, whether human or not, are not considered archaeological material, so you're legally not allowed to touch (take) them, so like proper grave robbers we just take their shit and go (an extreme oversimplification but ok). So I'm sitting there with this other 4500 year old person, trying to position my legs to the best of my ability as to not touch them/step/sit on them accidentally, cause u know, לא נעים. Bestie was deemed to be in the age range of 20-30 by our kooky physical anthropologist, placing them in my own age range.

I sat there for about 10 mins, glued to the soil walls, listening to the explosions and waiting the obligatory 10 mins, cause noone wants to play chicken with rocket debris. 10 mins is a looong time to spend practically spooning a dead stranger, and thinking. The strangest and oddly comforting thought I had was that Im not alone, I got this deceased they/them with me. Nothing was obviously left from their face but idk they looked quite peaceful lying there in a fetal position, same way I often find myself sleeping in, and whatever anxious thought I had about The Situation around me just went away. I was also thinking about the absurdity and comedic value of this situation - lying in someone elses 4500yr old tomb to avoid my own. All in all there were only around 4 (iirc) pretty terrifying explosions. Idk if any of those rockets actually landed or if those were interceptions, but you could really feel the sound of them in your body, and the vibrations were definitely felt in the soil. I think every Israeli is familiar with this sensation. While Im a big ol heret-sorry, Atheist(TM), I was wondering if this 4500yo dead person could also feel this sensation in their bones. It strangely felt like a shared experience, like I was genuinely not alone.

After the longest 10mins of my life I climbed out with the help of some colleagues, some of which also took refuge with the dead. I said a silent thank you to bestie and spent the next 30 something mins properly covering them back with soil, thinking thats the least I could do after very rudely allowing myself into their final airbnb.

Cant really articulate my feelings on this but just the idea of jumping into a dead dudes room to escape death and feeling as if Im not alone and the dead dude is right there with me in this experience has me fucked up.

where the actual fuck has tiktok been to jump to the conclusion that the social benefits we have in israel as a country come from us tax payer dollars? we… also pay taxes. we pay a lot in taxes, like a whole lot. and we do not have subsidised groceries or housing if you live in a city and not a kibbutz. i know some of you haven’t heard the word kibbutz before october 7th but they were founded under a socialist outlook. if you live in tel aviv or haifa you don’t get those things unless you’re on social benefits like most countries have. our health care is socialised, meaning you pay a health tax each month and then get some things subsidies but not all. you pay money. you know.. for things. that’s how life works. i know it’s really really cute and trendy to start using antisemitic conspiracy theories again but why lie? find actual things israel does wrong and criticise them?? it’s really not that difficult i can give you a whole list of things israel does wrong. but “tAkinG mY hArd eArned MonEY” is not one of them.

the uk (a country that actually colonised others) has free health care. FREE. no money paid at all. in israel i personally pay about $40 a month for my basic health needs as a sick person and that’s on a good month i didn’t need to see myself to an emergency room. last month i paid $95 in health care alone not including health tax i paid off my paycheck that month. in the uk i would pay NOTHING. why aren’t you concerned the uk is stealing canada’s tax payer money to allow this to happen? oh because that’s completely ridiculous and not how tax money works?

almost every country offers public housing, each with their own bureaucracy and process to go through to get accepted. why aren’t you asking why your american tax paying dollars are going there? because that’s fucking stupid right?

you live in america. get your head out of your ass and stop a) inserting yourself into a situation that does not concern you and b) using nazi values and talking points on ur cute little tiktoks.

if we just go back to where we came from how far back do we go. one generation? i get to stay. two? i get to stay. three? do i split my time between antisemitic europe and antisemitic north africa? five? still north africa. six? seven? eight? europe or north africa. ten? twenty? thirty? still antisemitic europe. forty? expelled-all-their-jews north africa. do i get the “Full Accurate And Definitely Real Jewish Experience” and have a summer home in europe and a residence in north africa? do i just hop hop between one country that tried to execute all their jews to a different one that tried to execute all their jews? do i just get a duel citizenship since i didn’t come from just one place. my family tree, like most jewish family trees, is vast and comes from all around the world. do i get to live anywhere and everywhere? do i get to be jewish in any of those places? or does going back mean going back to how it was—when my great grandfather had to send his family away during the war and told them never to mention how jewish they were. where my uncle on my other side was put in a camp for being jewish (yes, the north african side). maybe let’s go back further, before the executing started. well.. should i just stay here then?

“if you won’t listen to us listen to jews!!!” and by which you mean, jews you agree with. not listen to all jews and understand their reality, just “listen to the specific jews i’m showing you that i personally vetted and allow you to speak with who are on my side and agree with every word i say”. not let’s have a conversion with people directly effected by this and learn about other view points and lives but let’s listen to a jew from the diaspora who i agree with. never mind jews from the diaspora who don’t agree with you, never mind israeli jews who had to bury their family members and are in mourning. no. don’t listen to those zionists. listen to the ones i like and don’t need to censor out. the other jews are all brainwashed though don’t listen to them listen to palestinians.

Compilation of posts from my drafts that are literally nothing

"The practice of web weaving creates a quilt-like ekphrastic community poem. As these ekphrastic poetry posts proliferate, they make browsing the site more like reading an internet poetry book than an interaction with social media. The site and the form offer exciting possibilities for art creation and poetry writing while other platforms such as Tik Tok and Instagram drive away artists due to their algorithms, and capitalist tendencies. Web weaving offers an exciting new democratic form for artists to connect, be in direct conversation with each other, and form communities around their shared art." - on web weaving

Colette (Colette Justine)

interiors

A prominent figure in the downtown New York scene of the 1970s, Colette’s multimedia work has influenced major artists and musicians, including Cindy Sherman and Madonna.  In all of her work, Colette worked under the guise of performative personas that explore issues of the body, gender, and representation. Wearing extravagant costumes, she performed, live, and slept in her installations; she even once staged her own death at the downtown Whitney Museum. “I thought of myself as ‘post conceptual’ because I persisted and believed strongly in the power of symbols,” she said. “My work was putting less emphasis on the intellect alone. I sought unity of body, mind, and soul, in my life and art.”
