If your activism for Palestine claims that Jewish people control the media, you're antisemitic.
If your activism for Palestine claims that Jewish people deserve to be killed, mass-evicted or sorted into "good" and "bad" Jewish people, you're antisemitic.
If your activism for Palestine claims that all Jewish people are Zionists, you're generalising and antisemitic.
If your activism for Palestine is antisemitic, you are actively harming Jewish and Palestinian populations worldwide with your rhetoric. You don't really support Palestine, you just hate Jewish people - and if that is what your activism is, it's not true activism and we don't need you in this movement.
If you're not a safe space for all, I'm not the blog to follow.

A papercraft memorial portrait of Cinder, a wonderfully sweet cat. Her most beloved pose was loafing with her legs tucked up underneath her, so that was the requested pose for the piece. I hope I did her cuteness justice!
'lazy people don't feel guilty about not doing anything' is insane to me and I have been trying to make my brain believe it for a long time, it shocked me to my core when I first heard it
The museum at my undergrad hosted a photography exhibit by Leonard Nimoy around 2002 or 2003 featuring photographs from his Shekhina series (which is the series the above pic comes from). It's a gorgeous and powerful series.
He was a very talented photographer. If you're curious about his photography, check out this page over at R. Michelson Galleries:

Working Masterpost of Charities for Genocide & Humanitarian Crises
Want to help Palestine, Sudan, Congo, Ukraine, East Turkestan, Armenia or other places facing genocide but don't know where to donate? Have limited funds and want to make sure your money helps as many people as possible? I've compiled some resources to help you get started.
Note that this is a working masterpost, meaning that I'll update it as I find more resources. This is also an inherently non-conclusive list, in significant part because I'm just one person. I urge you to do further research of your own
Note 12Jan2026: Links to charity ratings via Charity Navigator have been removed so not to hit the maximum number of links per post. You can verify the rating of any given charity by going to Charity Navigator and searching for the organization in question.

Why Has the Red Cross been Crossed Out?
It has come to my attention that the Red Cross failed to report the full scope of the atrocities during the Holocaust. In more recent years, it has also been accused of misappropriating funds.
As such, I cannot recommend donating to the Red Cross in good conscience. It clearly cannot be trusted to function in an equitable and unbiased fashion, nor to help the people in need they're pledged to serve.
I have crossed it out rather than removing it for the following reasons to raise awareness of this history of corruption. I feel that awareness is particularly important right now, given the Red Cross's involvement in the Gaza ceasefire deal and hostage exchange; ideally, having the eyes of the world on them and knowing what to look for can mitigate corruption.

Even for apps where they donât have a publicly stated minimum, their algorithms will bury you.
4 stars does not mean 4 stars. It means 1.4 stars.
If you give a person a 4 star rating, to these companies, you are not saying âI was mostly satisfied with the service, but thereâs always room for improvementââwhich is what 4 stars should meanâyou are voting for them to be fired.
Genuinely, do not ever give people 4 star ratings on gig service apps for any reason that is not a safety issue where their continuation on the app could seriously hurt people.
If someone gives you âjust OKâ service where you donât want to give them 5 stars, but you donât actively hate their existence and hope they die, just donât rate them.
the situation with harry potter is kind of unprecedented in some ways imo because it is maybe the largest media franchise in history to be created & owned by a single person who still has direct creative control over it. who is also a billionaire with significant cultural/political influence. like the usual "no ethical consumption under capitalism" type excuses shatter on impact when the bigoted author in question is logging onto twitter every day saying explicitly that when you buy the tim hortons ravenclaw donut she is using your donut money to fund the genocide of trans people. like with big franchises usually there's at least a little more diffusion of responsibility than this
Sometimes I think about my old manager at work who, in order to prove that the organisation was safe for trans people, told me about a fellow trans employeeâa woman who was passing! who wasnât out to me or to anyone else!âand about how chill everyone in management had been about her needing to take time off TO GET VAGINOPLASTY. He was not her manager! He was not her friend! He did not work in HR! There was no way he could have come into this PRIVATE MEDICAL INFORMATION without being told by another manager who had gossiped. And even if there had been, why the fuck was it any of my business!
Likewise, a friend of mine was just told by a school principal about how a prospective school was safe for trans kids⌠because a trans girl whose parents donât affirm her at home is able to be affirmed at school. This information about this childâs gender and home environment was relayed along with her FUCKING GRADE LEVEL. This incredibly vulnerable kid was wheeled out as a selling point by the school with way more than enough information to figure out who she was.
In order to make the argument that a place is safe for trans people, cis people are wayyyy too happy to give out private information about trans people. With allies like these, who needs enemies!!!
If you are the recipient of this kind of "and here is another trans person" information leak (ESPECIALLY when it outs a trans woman!!) it's imperative that you come down on it like the divine fist of God. We should shame these little weasels like trans lives depend on it (because they might). Might I suggest:
"I'm not sure I'm comfortable about having been told so much."
"I'm sorry, but that all sounded very private."
"And has she given approval for her medical history to be used as an example?"
"How do you know it's safe to tell me this?" (if the answer is 'because you are trans' then that is its own Massive Problem)
"Does (school) always share private information about trans students with prospective parents?"
"So, will you share my personal information like this?"
please wear sunscreen!!! I've seen "fuck the beauty industrial complex" posts about complicated skincare regimens and am 100% with them except sometimes they mention sunscreen and no. no. absolutely not. sunscreen is a wonderful supportive friend who wants to keep you safe, and you should let her do it. throw out all your other cosmetics and skincare products if you want, but keep your sunscreen. and if you're not wearing sunscreen, start wearing it!!!! this is not about terror of aging, this is not about every tiny imperfection our fucked-up culture has made you feel insecure about, this is about protecting yourself from skin cancer. wear the damn sunscreen.
Also, please wear sunscreen even if youâre dark skinned! Melanin is an amazing molecule, but even it doesnât provide full UV protection - youâre still at risk for sunburn and skin cancer without sunscreen.
