yet again (and unfortunately, always) relevant

A note to those who like to Make Mean Sweeping Comments About the Jews that many said Jews will be offline from tonight until Wednesday night and will be unavailable to explain how you're being antisemitic. Please plan to take a break from scapegoating us until Thursday. Kind regards.

the last bill i need help with is $233 to pay off the electric company‘s last charges at the old place. This is due on the 29th

not saying it's gonna be a comeback, but...

The other day when I said that people sometimes use “Zionist” not to critique an actual ideology but as a code word for “Jew,” a lot of people on here got mad at me.

Some people on the left think just repeating “Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism” frees them from the work of thinking critically about what is and is not antisemitic. And a whole lot of people on the right think being a strong Zionist functions as a “get out of antisemitism free card.”

Toot toot it's Terrific! Tuesday! It's also the LAST DAY of the Queer Games Bundle @queergamesbundle.bsky.social, so make sure you buy it before it's too late and tonight let's revisit some of the bigger games we played this past month! Starts at 7pm ET on www.twitch.tv/calamitynolan

32 hours left to get Queer Games Bundle 2025. itch.io/b/3062/

Germany's reticence for some time to talk about queer victims of the Shoah has a lot more to do with the fact that queer people continued to be persecuted in postwar Germany, and the fact that Germany officially retained Nazi-period anti-queer laws for years thereafter, than anything about Zionism.

4️⃣2️⃣ You have 42 hours left to buy Queer Games Bundle 2025. Get over 600 radical, heartfelt games and projects for $60 (or $10+), less than the price of one AAA game. This morning, we've passed $80,000 for queer artists. itch.io/b/3062

5️⃣2️⃣ You have 52 hours left to buy Queer Games Bundle 2025. Get over 600 games and projects for $60 (or $10+), less than the price of one AAA game. itch.io/b/3062

Moreover, to the extent all victims of the Shoah have been acknowledged, from Romani to queer victims, it has often been because of alliances and activism with Jewish communities. There is much to be said about acknowledging the full scope of the Shoah, but we don't need to do this to talk about it.

I see this sort of claim a lot, that Jews deliberately monopolized Holocaust memory to prevent other groups from being acknowledged as Holocaust victims. It's not true and is part of antisemitic conspiracies. No one was keeping you from learning about other victims of the Shoah.

6️⃣4️⃣ You have 64 hours left to buy Queer Games Bundle 2025. Get over 600 games and projects for $60 (or $10+), less than the price of one AAA game, or probably well below the price of one "AAAAA" game. itch.io/b/3062

My electric bill got pulled out & I’m in the negatives

If someone is using “antisemitism” as an excuse to drop bombs, or deport people, or ban a book, or hurt another minority, or jail someone, it’s not about Jews at all. They’re using us as a cudgel and hoping you won’t ask questions. Don’t let them get away with it.

It helps to remember that the word “antisemitism” was coined by German race scientists in the 1800s because they needed a scientific-sounding term to replace Judenhass, literally “Jew hate.” The term was coined by people who hated us to make their hatred look objective. It’s always been their word.

Yes, and the people who have been swarming my replies for days insisting, "No one on the left is antisemitic! You're just conflating trying to call criticism of Israel antisemitic!" both have no examples of me doing that, and also no answer to the spread of Leo Frank trutherism on the left.

A lot of people on the extremely online left right now seem to interpret "Anti-Zionism is not antisemitism" to mean "all antisemitism is actually fine if you just say it's anti-Zionism."

hey party ppl!! ICYMI i got my hands on a riso machine locally. hoping to launch this project and service in a few months thanks to the wonderful space provided by Take Home BIPOC Arthouse and I want to play around with more art - YOUR ARTWORK 🫵 🦌 forms.gle/ZBcwsPdp6m4V... 🍀 moricaripress.carrd.co

hey its my birthday you should buy one of my games (staradavid.itch.io) OR support @queergamesbundle.bsky.social

anti-Zionism is not necessarily antisemitism, but thinking that a cookie company is metaphysically a secret Jewish plot because you don’t like it is not anti-Zionism so it must be the other thing

Some people seem to think "anti-Zionism is not antisemitism" implies "all antisemitism is actually anti-Zionism." Which is how you get people insisting that claiming Leo Frank was actually guilty is really about the state of Israel, which did not exist for decades after Frank was murdered.

Genuinely happy that the 7 year long development time was spent working at a leisurely pace, spending time with their families and flexing their creative muscles - with no pressure to expand their company, deliver sooner or read a single reddit post. Smartest people in our entire industry.

"people who are still concerned about covid are so unreasonable, they just want us all to go into lockdown again!" literally nobody is asking for that. what people are asking for is stuff like universal masking in healthcare settings and investment in indoor air filtration/clean air infrastructure

As a person seriously concerned about antisemitism, Stop Antisemitism is hot garbage and has been hot garbage for at least as long as I've been aware of it and likely as far back as it's conception

It's a new day for queer games. A quiet Sunday afternoon with some games and stories sounds pretty great. itch.io/b/3062

this is the best analysis of antisemitism that can be put into a single skeet. the (oftentimes deliberate and spiteful) refusal of goyim to understand this point over the last 70 years is why antisemitism is spiking again. if you are not Jewish it is your duty to come to terms with this basic truth.

I’m still looking for support in terms of paying off some bills & moving supplies if you have the means

As an American Jew, this scares me a lot more than protestors on college campuses, because it has the full force of the state behind it: www.jta.org/2025/08/14/p...

Posted a new goal on Ko-Fi for moving fund support, I need to feed myself, get moving supplies, & pay off final bills. If you wanna help me out, check out the goal & the latest post on my ko-fi feed ko-fi.com/dyingsignals...

Reminder that you can still grab 600+ games made by queer creators through this bundle. Buying the Queer Games Bundle is a fantastic way to get queer artists PAID!! Personally, as someone with games in the bundle both last year and this year, it has been a huge help

🫗 It's a new day for a nice refreshing glass of Queer Games Bundle. Get over 600 games, TTRPGS, and other works for $60 (or $10+). Give your money directly to developers and artists who need it. itch.io/b/3062

I’m going to be moving home at the end of the month. Once I have a few more details, i’m going to have an updated goal on ko-if so if you’re interested in supporting me with moving costs, you can.
