Misogyny and Antisemitism Are a Toxic Brew

“Zio bitch!” a young man in a kaffiyeh and Black Lives Matter T-shirt barked at one of us, his ire apparently provoked by a yellow ribbon pin, a symbol of the Israeli hostages held by Hamas. The exchange was unsettling but not surprising. Even in New York, where we both live, we have often seen an extraordinary lack of empathy for the Israeli victims of Oct. 7 and outright hostility toward those who advocate for them. The epithet “Zio bitch” highlights multilayered animosities, pointing to an insidious, specific prejudice we have seen bloom this year: the melding of misogyny and antisemitism.

This entire discourse feels like gaslighting. Yes antisemitism exists on the left and appears to have spiked since Oct 7. But anti-Arab and anti-Islamic prejudice ALSO EXIST and are major contributing factors to an ONGOING CAMPAIGN OF MASS MURDER.

Why is 99% of media concern aimed at the former?

they should make all sports as overtly gay as womens soccer

reminder that female cardinals are brown (the bird below) so every holiday card with two red cardinals is GAY

My favourite building in Kabukicho is Minoru Takeyama‘s Ichibankan from 1969, this alien-like collection of jagged black & white angles that waits like a spider for you to catch a glimpse of it then pounces like the Predator

if your organization uses AI generated copy or images at any point, I'll never be able to just trust that anything you do going forward is real.

is that really worth it?

Dudes will be like “check out how cool this AI is” and ask it a question that you could have just googled the answer to five years ago, and that interaction has the carbon footprint of a house fire
