So with all this bs on main and my medical issues over the past year, I know I could just go quietly and come back when I feel safe. But I refuse to be silenced like the world wants me to be as a Jewish woman. I refuse to live in fear. But I will protect myself. So, bye for now.
During the BLM protests, a big part of the discourse was people are more important than property. And with the way the Israeli hostages are being treated on here, it’s clear you don’t see us as people. We’re acceptable property losses. Subhuman.
The classic scapegoating playbook during tough or confusing times starts with isolating Jews. Blaming us for problems. Ignoring facts. Dehumanizing us. I’m not Israeli, but what happens in Israel affects me. I have family there. Even family who Hamas killed.
I miss screenwriting Twitter. But everytime I log in, I get bombarded with antisemitism in my feed - even from people in screenwriting Twitter. I tell stories about Jews in love. And basically… I don’t feel safe here anymore, which sucks, because I loved the community.

Sometimes it feels like execs getting a new job kills more projects than any other factor

The entirety of my known family’s history is being told we didn’t belong in Eastern Europe and facing violence & discrimination there. But now you’re telling me we’re really Europeans & indigenous to Eastern Europe?? Which is it?

I think I connect deeply to a feeling of diaspora because I just don’t care about states and land. I understand many do. I fight for indigenous connections to land. But for myself…I just want to say nothing is more important then protecting children bombs & massacres
That first sentence. So f*cking wise.

Wait… not everyone on their laptops at coffee shops is writing a screenplay?
I’m dealing with a big difficult thing right now. Writing makes me happy. Talking to other writers about writing makes me happy. This app is not making me happy. I’d love to connect with other writers as my time allows. So if you want to chat, reply here.

American hatred is so wild.
The same people preaching “AMERICA FIRST!” want to give billions to another state because those missiles will kill Arabs.
Or because they want to trigger their goofy-ass endtimes prediction.
Or both.

Many Jewish people in Israel and around the world are BEGGING Israel to stop. Victims of the massacres by Hamas are calling for humanity & a political solution. We’re protesting, demanding a ceasefire. What else would you like us to do?

As a Jew, I am scared. I am not scared of my neighbors who are Palestinian or Muslim. I’m scared my faith & the horrific killing of innocents are being used to justify a genocide in Gaza. I’m scared, truly, of the people cheering it on, who so easily forget our shared humanity.

Hamas has made its existence intolerable by massacring over 1,000 Israeli civilians.
Yet the call to evacuate over 1 million Palestinians in a day is not feasible.
The US gov must use its influence to avert this outcome and help Israel achieve its objectives through other means
