i hate how antizionists bring up respected historical figures who hated israel and zionism as some kind of gotcha and you can tell they’ve never had to acknowledge that, yeah, a lot of the most beloved historical figures of all time were massive antisemites

Unless...
I said it in the notes on the last post but I’m gonna say it again.
I’m married to someone with severe memory problems. Automation of household appliances & systems helps him a lot and helps me a lot because it reduces the number of things I have to keep in my brain at all times. I love doors that lock themselves, being able to schedule dog food being delivered, a thermostat I can manipulate from wherever. Beyond my little bubble it should be noted that voice controlled appliances can be really good for people with mobility concerns. Appliances that can measure and talk and remember little tasks can be such a blessing for people.
I will never forgive Amazon and Google for taking technologies that could be really helpful and weaponizing them, and fuck everybody who acts like its some kind of conspiracy theory that those devices are spying on you. You absolutely should be distrustful of those devices but just make sure you’re getting angry at the right people.
I have long wanted my tumblr to be free of politics and focus on creative things I love. But I just can't keep my anger and fear under wraps anymore. I'm saving most of my divisive commentary for discord and still straying from most subjects (including my beliefs about the current war), but I'm not going to be silent anymore about how the hate affects me as an Israeli Jew who was raised in and still lives in the United States.
