Three days ago, @washingtonpost @washingtonpost reported that 1 out of every 200 people in Gaza have been killed.
That is obscene, and nobody is fucked up, antisemitic, or a “terrorism apologist” by virtue of opposing it.

this Chait piece sucks. Objecting to the wholesale slaughter of civilians in Gaza is not, in itself, #antisemitism. His “nuance” posture around this feels pretty thin & perfunctory.

*Slime mould appreciation post*
Slime moulds usually live as single celled organisms, but will occasionally perform an astonishing feat of cooperation - gathering together as a collective ‘organism’ to form structures such as fruiting bodies. They may resemble fungi, but are really a unique group of amoebozoa.

Happy Halloween!
