“In any war between the civilized man and the savage, support the civilized man.” I am PROUD to have been arrested for defacing that racist ad in Sept. 25, 2012. At the time, some people accuse me of “vandalism.” I was a PROUD VANDAL. Some said I should have made an alternative ad and stood holding it by this racist ad. The Revolution is NOT POLITE. If Israel is “civilized,” I said at the time, then I am a PROUD SAVAGE. Eight months of Israeli savagery that has killed 36,000 Palestinians in Gaza. As so many say: every accusation a confession. Fuck your “civilization” if it drops 2,000 lbs bombs on displaced people in tents in a “safe zone.” If that is “civilized,” then I am a PROUD SAVAGE.

The second season of one of my favourite TV shows ever is here! We Are Lady Parts! Here’s an essay i wrote after the first season: (link stories and at FEMINIST GIANT) Too Loud, Swears Too Much, Goes Too Far— The Emancipatory Power of We Are Lady Parts When you’re a Muslim woman, you can’t fucking win. Every Muslim woman has an arsenal of you-can’t-fucking-win stories. And how lucky we are that Nida Manzoor channeled her arsenal into the revolutionary rocket of a show We Are Lady Parts. Nida Manzoor on why We Are Lady Parts is a comedy: “I felt that Muslim women…have often been shown in quite a serious light…esp with Muslim women and how they’re portrayed as oppressed and victims…My experience, and my friends’, is that of joy and fun and silliness” Men—and white people— are thankfully incidental to We Are Lady Parts. They are the supporting cast—eye candy, lovers or husbands, irritants or racists. And what a relief. Too often, we are not heard above the noise our men and white people make All my essays are free to read and share. Subscribe and get them delivered to your inbox. It’s free—no paywall or ads.

In the U.S.: bipartisan genocidal fuckery The top four congressional leaders have formally invited Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu to address a joint meeting of Congress. Correction: The top prosecutor of the International Criminal Court has asked the tribunal to issue an arrest warrant for this genocider. I initially said the warrant has been issued. To my knowledge that has yet to happen.

Up to 140lbs on my squats. Squats are hard! And I’m working! I am 56 and I weigh 156lbs and I am humbled and thrilled at how hard I work during my sessions with @jeanafanellifitness I consider this hard work as fuel for other areas in my life that need hard work. As the song says: do the hustle!
