Do not use antisemitism to support Palestine

Do not use the Israeli government to excuse antisemitism

The white writing says: BEING PRO-PALESTINE AND AGAINST ANTI-SEMITISM GO HAND IN HAND, BECAUSE ALL SYSTEMS OF OPPRESSION REINFORCE ONE ANOTHER, AND NONE CAN BE FOUGHT IN ISOLATION.]

working out your brain is a must!!

• hydrate it by drinking lots of water

• eat dark chocolate and blueberries and walnuts and salmon and other foods high in antioxidants!!

• play little brain games on your phone; I like wordconenct! anything that makes you think!

• read books. It’s simple but necessary. Even better - join a book club, or read with a friend, so you can have discussions after. This will improve your reading comprehension.

• do puzzles - it doesnt have to be sudoku, I love playing Beat Saber on the Oculus Rift because it makes my brain have to match colorful patterns to physical movements very quickly!

• learn a new dance - even a tik tok trendy dance. Learning new dance moves are proven to strengthen synapses!!

• go bird watching, or foraging, or anything outdoors that requires you to explore pattern recognition and visual searching

• watch a movie with the intent of analysis - this is best done with a cinephile friend!! talk about tropes and symbolism and character growth

• cross stitch, or sew, or do anything that requires matching nimble hand movements to patterns

• play or learn an instrument!

• develop a consistent sleep schedule (or as close to consistent as you can get!)

• when eating, try to identify the ingredients and flavors you’re perceiving!

I hope this helps :)

I like how this went from me feeling like “hm why is this attacking me 🤨” at first, but feeling grateful seeing an added guide on a genuine expansion on a “ how to” work out the brain. This genuinely helps a bunch. People find solace in doing activities that get them through life by doing said activities of phone/tv or if that’s all they’ve ever known in their life to get them through things + etc tho. However, this was very impt to point out. Slowly beginning incorporating things to work the brain in ones own time.

Working out your brain is also just super fun! Because despite what you may believe after experiencing school, learning can actually be fun when you enjoy what you’re learning about!

Some other recommendations for brain workouts:

If there’s an online game you like playing casually, consider trying to learn how to play it competitively! Learn the Meta, the strategies, the terminology, how to read opponents, etc. if that isn’t your thing try a puzzle game, strategy game, or analyse a narrative driven game.

Start learning a new language! Language learning is hard, but it’s worth it! And you’ll be surprised at how quickly you make progress.

Go to an art gallery, try to do a little analysis. How do the pieces make you feel? What do you think they’re trying to say?

“if women want equality then they should be drafted” what if — just hear me out — what if nobody should be drafted. not even *looks behind my shoulder* not even men.

Rashida Tlaib speaking in Congress, her last speech yesterday about the crimes against the Palestinian people before the House censured her.

“71% of Michigan Democrats support a ceasefire. So you can try to censure me, but you can’t silence their voices.”

At the end she called for a ceasefire again.

Shoutout to all the people of Ohio who just passed abortion, contraception, and reproductive rights of all people into constitutional law by a fucking 12+ point margin despite the state legislature desperately trying to do everything they can to fuck up the vote. I'm so proud of y'all!!

The disregard politicians are showing especially to those who they hired to help them succeed and to their constituents…corrupt and rotten.

ppl trying to frame art as something thats been historically a "privilege" restricted to the upper classes pisses me off saur much..... when you have no idea what youre fucking talking about ❤️

[grecoromanyaoi]

the way ppl like to envision working/lower class people (or even just... ppl living outside those dynamics) throughout history as like.... eternally miserable illiterate idiots that only know eating gruel and dying of the plague is fucking infuriating. people sang songs, told stories, wove fabrics, embroidered, knitted, decorated their homes, their places of worship, their tools, their food, their clothes, their hair, their bodies, for thousands upon thousands upon thousands of years. everyone, throughout all of human existence, loved art. created art.

some of you unironically talk like 18th century colonialists but with the labels scratched off.
