or we can just take the money that’s being used to make these robots and use it to build homeless people………..homes…………………..
Fun fact actually that wouldn’t be necessary there are already more homes than homeless people. So basically, maybe we could all stop being piles of shit and just let homeless people… Live
Rich People: We don’t like seeing people sleeping on the streets!
How a Normal Person Would Deal with this Problem: Okay, let’s find a way to house these people and where possible help them to find employment and give them whatever assistance they need to get by in life
How Rich People Deal with this: Let’s build horrifying robots to hunt the homeless and hound them into already overcrowded prisons!
some quick stuff, which helps me to stay calm in those stressful weeks of exams. also, I tried a new line-brush for Clip Studio Paint and I simple adore it now! and, to be honest, it’s my first NSFW-art ( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°)
we really need allies right now, and I know seeing this on people’s blogs could be comforting to other Jewish people.
why should we when you just called every non jew a derogatory term
“Hey so we know that people literally want you dead but u hurt my feelings so :(((”
not to mention liky ‘goy’ is literally just the way we refer to a non-jew just like ‘cis’ is the word for a non-trans person
if you looked down literally two centimeters in google search you would have seen the beginning of this page
and of this page
but i guess our lives are worthless to you because we called you a debatable-at-best word we use all the time for non-jews so we don’t have to keep saying “non-jews” all the g-ddamn time
^^ yeah p much lmao
This goy loves his Jewish friends
“Their word for us is secretly an insult” is such a tired old racist rumour, brought to you by the type of dipshit who gets angry when they hear people speaking another language in public because they assume the speakers are saying something bad about them.
Personally, I don’t like the word Goy.
Not because it feels insulting, but because it define me depending on what I am not instead of what I am.
Cis does not mean “not trans”, it means “who identify with it’s gender of birth”.
Goy means “not jew”
To be called as such makes me feel uncomfortable, as if I was lacking something instead of being different but valid.
Well, first of all, it actually means "Nation” in biblical Hebrew (for example, the song “Lo yisa goy el goy cherev v’yilmadu od milchama" means “Nation shall not lift up sword against nation”). Hence, when we use the words, we are literally calling you “The people of the other nations” (as Judaism centres around peoplehood in a tribal sense). So, what you have an issue with is being called “a person who belongs to another Nation, rather than of Am Yisrael,” which…is exactly what you are? You do belong to another Nation/Tribe/Identity?
Secondly, lots of groups have words for people who aren’t of their ethnicity? Gadje, Haole, Pākehā, Padakoot, Gaijin, etc. It’s pretty common for groups of small people, especially in a tribal sense, to differentiate from themselves and the greater world—especially when they’re a vulnerable population, which brings me to my last point…
Our right as a persecuted people to describe our experiences as such entirely outweigh your discomfort with being called “not Jewish.” Your bio says your French. Mazel tov, you come from a country that has a long and storied history of ant-Semitism, and you have no fucking right to police how we relate to the persecution you inflicted on us. If you hadn’t segregated and oppressed for 2,000 years, maybe we wouldn’t have such a strong sense of otherness now, but you did, so I guess we’ll never know. Grow up and deal with it.
hey @ goyim could y’all reblog this if you’re actually willing to listen to Jewish people and protect us?
Hello family, thank you for clicking on this and taking the time to read. I am writing this on behalf of a member of one of our own, Miranda, known to a lot of the tumblr fam as @blindpandabear or even just lovingly as our very own Randa.
Some of you might be aware that back in March of 2017, Randa escaped from a physically dangerous and violent situation involving her abusive parents. She managed to get to NY where the promise of living with friends was an option, but since then those offers have fallen through and Randa was living out of her car on the streets until she was able to find employment and an understanding landlady to let her rent a room.
Unfortunately Randa was forced to leave that employment due to mental and emotional abuse at the hands of her employers, who also often failed to pay her on time and even asked her to commit insurance fraud on their behalf, telling her to doctor important forms involving a client through photoshop. Randa reported this to the relevant authorities and was subsequently forced to leave for reasons of safety. This prompted an investigation that is still ongoing and may be for some time, but still leaves Randa without reliable support or income.
To add injury to this forced departure, Randa tried to claim unemployment through The Department of Labor, which she was granted, until her former employer protested the claim, leading to a review wherein the Department sided with her employer and denied her claim. Insurance fraud, tax evasion and documented abuse with eye witness accounts and all.
We are attempting to appeal this sanction, but in the meantime Randa could really use help getting back on her feet and into a place of relative stability. She can and does do freelance work as a graphics designer (including designs for my own merchandise and the formatting of my cover work for my upcoming novel which I will link so you can see examples of her recent work) and is willing and able to take on work any of you might have, but until then she needs to be able to cover rent, food and medical costs for her extremely severe PTSD (diagnosed in July after a mental breakdown) and other health issues. Thankfully most of her diagnosis testing to find out why she is having blackout episodes (previously suspected to be seizures) is covered by Medicaid, but there are some things she needs to pay for on her own and they are vital towards recovering her health in order to better find more permanent work.
If you know Randa, you will know she is one of the kindest, most sweetest people there is to know, and is always first in line to help others wherever she can. We know $5000 seems like a lot, but we are hoping $5000 will be enough to bide her some time and pay off some of the more urgent debt, as well as help to keep the roof over her head until at least January when we hope to have something figured out. At the moment she’s living day to day with no money for food and relying on the help of friends to sometimes even eat one meal a day. Any help would be so very greatly appreciated, but please, only give what you can, and if you can’t give, please share. Thank you

Apologies for the typos and double posting fam, if you’re not aware the youcaring page takes 5 minutes to update after you make an edit and I’m doing this in a blind panic trying to get Randa the help she needs so it’s a bit chaotic. If you can signal boost again with correct info and grammar that’d be fantastic. Thank you so much ❤
Hi again family, thank you so much for your support so far, but if you could kindly boost this again we’d greatly appreciate it.
Randa is still struggling and now her student loan company (Sally Mae) is harassing her and attempting to back out of the forbearance agreement they took payment for last week, claiming that it was never agreed upon, even though they told her the terms, took the fee payment and informed her they wouldn’t contact her again until January for further payment. They are now claiming this conversation never happened that way, which it absolutely did because I was listening in at the time and now they’re pressuring her to make payments she can’t afford, so any help (including advice on how to deal) with this would be hugely appreciated.
If you’d prefer to help Randa in other ways she now has a Society6 where you can purchase some of her designs, including this delightful pastel masterpiece:
It comes in a range of merch ranging from art prints, phone covers, tote bags, stationary cards, stickers, throw cushions and more.
Randa also hopes to have more designs up soon, and is open to taking custom work and color requests. So y’know, if you need a last minute holiday gift for a friend (or yourself!) then this could be a really fun way to do that and help out a literally starving queer artist at the same time. I’ve tried to make sure she has food and some rent covered for the rest of the year but my finances have limits, even if my love for her does not.
As ever please, only give what you can, and if you can’t give, please share. Thank you ❤
