what an artful form of apartheid apologia. people are lapping this shit up in the notes. Even if we set aside the titanic amount of weaponry and equipment created and built by engineers and chemists, all the mapping software that guides missiles and drones and planes created by computer scientists and geographers for a second (science that the state is very much interested in!), zionist apartheid policy, administrative policies, planning and logistics, urban planning documents, you name it - that all apparently just popped into existence one day. for someone claiming to be concerned about social science academics you sure are dismissing all of their hard work! but if you just frame every academic in Israel as a poor little individual victim being randomly attacked for no reason then it’s easy to hide what’s actually going on, which is academics as a group experiencing the harsh end of a boycott. they are being targeted specifically because they are an intellectual class of a colonial state whose genocide is being live-streamed to the world, but if you obfuscate the academy’s role in training, educating, and providing intellectual architecture for the bureaucratic class and institutions that make up state governments, then you can frame a principled pro-Palestinian position (boycotting Israel) as misguided, stupid, overzealous, ineffectual, and most importantly, detrimental to the cause of freeing Palestine, all of which is of course so obvious to everyone but Palestinian activists. this is naked concern-trolling for the zionist project of annihilating Palestine and it is no less disgusting than any other zionist cheering on the mass murder of children

I'm curious. what job would you do if money was no object (you just automatically had an income you could live comfortably on)? including work like volunteering, studying etc. please share in the tags :)

#i would go study the study i already want to do tbh. maybe take my time on it more #id do volunteering too probs with old folks since i have an affinity niw

children existing in public spaces is genuinely like. necessary for the continuation of society. it doesnt have to be your kids you dont have to volunteer at a daycare or whatever but you need to be able to tolerate the presence of someone who is learning how to exist as a human and interact with people

#ppl get sooo mean abt this #obvs yes there should be adult spaces and child spaves but PUBLIC spaces are for ALL the public #if u cant even handle mildly annoying children i doupt ull fare better with adults who dont behave the way u want/expect them to either

#children 100% #4 hours no entretainment is DREADFULL and everything else is worse so

What is Poly housing like? I already know of mono housing, so I am interested how Poly people would like to be housed.

I really like this question! There are as many housing 🏘️ situations as there are poly relationship dynamics! Off the top of my head, here's what I've heard of or experienced:

Cohabitating primary couple with another/others outside the home with their own place

Polycule living together but each person has their own room

Triad where everyone lives together and shares a bed

Everyone lives separately

Everyone technically lives separately, but sleepovers are every night and all that changes is who's hosting

Polycule is too expansive to functionally describe, so some are living together and some aren't

Lives separately, but purposefully got places as close together as possible. One group I heard of had a married couple living together and right across their back yard was their third!

Polycule lives together, with primary partners coupled up in rooms

And there's probably more! Let's try a poll.

Don't worry about people not in the polycule that you may be living with for the purposes of this poll. IE, you have a roommate that isn't your partner or something.

EDIT: please also vote on your ideal living situation

#polycule is 6 ppl currently total and i live together with one partner and 2 of my bfs live together

Okay and spinning off from the last post (vote there too!), please only vote if you're in a poly relationship or ID as poly

#distance would make it Impossible but i think ideal is all together but wirh a lot of seprate rooms/spaces #the house would have to be massive but like.

alright gamers i’m curious about something

basically i’m curious about how much of a correlation there is between being good at a game and enjoying it

the third to last one involves any game that you can’t really be ‘good’ or ‘bad’ at, that’s primarily based on luck, or patience, or just doing whatever you want with no real consequences, as opposed to objective skill that moves you toward a given end. but like even if so vote however you want

#my favorite game is Probably anatomy which is not a game u can be good at. #or night in the woods which similarly. not a lot of skill

according to wikipedia there are 44-50 countries in europe so i just went with 50. have fun!
