Jewish Genre Reading Challenge 2025
“The Jewish Genre Challenge is a reading journey through the incredible diversity of Jewish existence, from the sexy feminist heroine of The Roommate to the hardboiled detective of Redemption Street, from the space warriors of the Metzada Mercenary Corps to the badass queer Rabbi Who Prayed With Fire. Find Jewish characters living in the genres you already read and love, or use the challenge as a chance to broaden your reading horizons.” #Bookstodon #Mazeldon

$28 billion dollars in retaliatory tariffs— and not just on steel but motorcycles, bourbon, peanut butter, and jeans. Is Trump really this fucking stupid?
And Europe will not back down like Canada, for every tarrif Trump puts another counter tarrif will hit. Europe has the financial strength and the tech to duke it out with USA one on one.
