if you are trying to invent a version of nazism that doesn't include antisemitism then that is no longer nazism. it is something else. a component of nazism, maybe, but at the core of nazism is a seething hatred for and desire to eradicate all jews, and if you catch yourself going "this is nazism but not targeted towards jews-" then you are no longer talking about nazism.

racial- and ethno-nationalism. racial- and ethno-supremacy. fascism. ultranationalism. these are all words that already exist and they are free to use! there is no nazism without antisemitism. if you're trying to separate nazism from antisemitism in order to make a point, put on your thinking cap for five seconds, figure out what it is you are actually talking about, and use that word instead.

The Twilight Zone: Our episode "A Slot Machine Chases You Around Physically" was meant as a cautionary tale about the predatory nature of the gambling industry

That’s a real episode, for anyone who didn’t know.

for those curious, this is joanne, a 15-year-old sumatran tiger currently living at phoenix zoo. it's very sweet to see her playing and tumbling around like this at her age -- she's got some people taking care of her if she still has this energy at that age.

i did see some users in the notes who were concerned about her looking 'scrawny', or wondering if she's maybe a juvenile -- far from it! at 15, joanne is very much considered a geriatric tiger; she's a grandma. she is, however, a sumatran tiger (panthera tigris sumatrae) -- sumatrans are the smallest extant subspecies of tiger, built more for the sweltering jungles of sumatra than the blistering cold of the amur river or the dense forests and mangrove swamps of south asia.

when you're used to seeing amur or amur-bengal hybrid ('generic') tigers on television or online, most of which are often overfed and overweight, a sumatran is going to look a bit weird, but joanne looks to be in wonderful shape -- look at those muscles flex and that coat shimmer when she moves! that's a healthy old lady for sure. props to joanne's keepers for taking such good care of her.

Do you wanna play mermaids? Yay. Okay so my tail is light blue and I have ice powers. And I live in the Arctic sea and watch British sailors die horrible deaths while trying to find the Northwest Passage.

Hi my name is Mordechai ben Yair ben Shimei ben Kish, ish Yimini and I am from the tribe of Binyamin (that’s how I got my name) with a long white beard that reaches my mid-abs and icy blue eyes like limpid tears and a lot of people tell me I look like King Saul (AN: if u don’t know who he is get da hell out of here!). I AM related to Queen Esther which is great because she’s a major fucking hottie. I’m a prophet but I'm humble and scholarly. I’m also a Jew, and I was a member of a respected group called the Sanhedrin in the Hall of Hewn Stones where I learned seventy languages (I’m one hundred). I’m a vizier (in case you couldn’t tell) and I wear mostly royal blue. I am second to the king and I get all my clothes from him. For example today I was wearing royal robes of blue and white, and a mantle of fine linen and purple wool. I was wearing a magnificent gold crown and riding a royal horse. I was sitting by the castle gates. A counter-decree had been issued so the Jews were not in mortal peril, which I was very happy about. A lot of antisemites stared at me. I put up my middle finger at them.

[monochromaticchime]

My name is Haman the Agagite. I'm 33 years old. My house is in the northeast section of Shushan, where the palace is, and I am married. I work as an advisor for the King Xerxes, and I get home every day by sundown at the latest. I don't smoke, but I drink and wear a fuckass hat. I'm in bed by midnight, and make sure I get eight hours of sleep, no matter what. After having a glass of warm chai and doing about twenty minutes of throwing lots before going to bed, I usually have no problems sleeping until morning. Just like a baby, I wake up without any fatigue or stress in the morning. I was told there were no issues at my last check-up. I'm trying to explain that I'm a person who wishes to live a very extravagant life. I take care to trouble myself with enemies, like Mordechai, who would cause me to lose sleep at night. That is how I experience society, and I know that is what brings me happiness. Although, if I were to provoke the Jewish community I wouldn't lose to anyone.

why is lake superior so dangerous? i cant find anything online that will give my access (not american!)

it's the largest freshwater lake on the planet by surface area, you could lose a couple of smaller countries in there and not even notice. (vs Europe)

on top of that, it's a Northern lake, so the water never really gets warmer than 50 F (10 C) even in the heat of summer, and it's famous for sudden violent storms that destroy ships and buildings alike. this thing has a MASSIVE body count because it's also a major shipping thoroughfare.

tldr it wants to eat you so so bad

[kedreeva]

She is also over 1,300ft/400m deep at her deepest. Once she has eaten you, she will not give you back. Lake Superior doesn't give up her dead.

And when Bunjy says "the largest by surface are" what that means is: Lake Superior is a whopping 31,700 square miles (82,103 square km) of water. The only reason she is not an inland sea is because she is freshwater.

She has tides. She has rip currents, like an ocean does. You don't even have to go out on a boat to get got by her, all you have to do is step into her icy waters in the wrong spot. She has ice formations that aren't "icebergs" on the technicality that they didn't calve from glaciers, even though they look and act the same.

She LOOKS like an ocean when you are at her shores. This is from a location on the Minnesota side shore.

She is huge, icy, and hungry. This makes her very dangerous. Not to be fucked around with, because you WILL find out.

[hadespuppy]

Superior doesn't want to kill you in the way that K2 wants to kill you. She doesn't give much thought to you at all, unless you draw her attention. Then, well, might as well start ringing the bell at Mariner's Church yourself, because she is inevitable.

gracie abrams music is pretty mid but i think the extremely vitriolic hate for her is rooted in part in antisemitism. possibly also the case for that sombr fella tho idk anything about him. especially bc the crowd that hates her most obsesively is also the group that has had the largest increase in antisemitism recently (extremely online youngish people)
