A bed like a wooden slab, she says

Not much else surrounding the food because I already posted about it! ![[instagram.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/profile_icons/instagram.png)
sashagee has left more and more of her things here, now bringing over her yoga mat because she figures that after sleeping on my shikibuton she'll need it more than after sleeping on her double-memory-foamed cloud-bed. I'm probably going to end up getting a memory foam pad myself to make her more comfortable, since while I'm used to it to the point that at ACEN last year I slept on the floor of ![[facebook.com profile]](https://www.facebook.com/favicon.ico)
RogueNire and zbrund's room with just a blanket and a pillow and I was okay, but for sashagee, basically the only thing worse than my shikibuton would be a bed of nails. 
News came out today that Chicago is close to reversing progress and could return to Phase 3, which would honestly be fine with me. I've already ranted here about the beach-scolding when going to the beach is literally orders of magnitude safer than going to a bar or an indoor restaurant, and hoenstly we shouldn't have opened indoor activities at all if you can't wear masks during them. If bars and restaurants and groups greater than ten are banned, it'd change nothing about my life. Even a group of ten is too many, I think (the max I've gathered in was six and that was outside). Andsashagee keeps telling me about people coming into her work in groups of ten or twenty, maybe half of them masked, and gathering around her and her co-workers. Shutting that down sounds great.

I really needed this meal today because the internet is a mess. Today "Jews," "Hebrews," and "Semites" were trending--always a bad sign--and on looking into it, apparently Nick Cannon was fired for antisemitism, meaning Twitter was filled to the brim with "See! He said Jews control the media and (((they))) fired him! He was right!" comments, including a depressing amount of them from Black people. Most of those followed the familiar pattern--Jews are rich, Jews control the media and the banks, Jews can't be oppressed because we actually run the world, you've heard it all before. "Punching up" as a model of interaction fails utterly when dealing with antisemitism, because a lot of antisemitism is about how we're secretly on top, so therefore those comments aren't antisemitic, they're bravely speaking truth to power.
As the meme goes, "The Jews are tired."
I did really appreciate this article by Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, though: Where Is the Outrage Over Anti-Semitism in Sports and Hollywood? A good question I wish we had a better answer to.
