Technically it’s not Frankincense it’s Frankincense’s Monster.

"Criticism of Israel is not antisemitic."

This is true if it means that it is possible to criticize Israel without lapsing into antisemitism. (It is.)

It is not true if it means that criticism of Israel can't be antisemitic. (It can, and often is.)

It seems that a lot of people assume it means the latter, and they're wrong.

Christie's being found not qualified under Maine's rules is no different than Colorado finding Trump not qualified under 14th A text and history. Maine should similarly find Trump not qualified under 14th A.

A PSA - folks, if you have tested positive for COVID in the past week or two, even if you are fully vaccinated, do your fellow beings a favor by avoiding social gatherings this holiday season. Humanity and Santa will thank you.
And if you have not tested positive, at least wear a mask and avoid close face-to-face animated conversations. Your family will thank you.

If you have anything you want to sneak into the house, #Christmas Eve is absolutely the best day to do it. You can just rush through the door carrying anything while shouting “don't look! don't look!” and people will happily close their eyes. Next thing you know you’re eating a bucket of KFC safely in the bathroom

@dukepaaron That would make a great wrestling alias or something. “The Zionist Tornado.”

@dogzilla @tzimmer_history @eilonwy That’s what I’m seeing. I say disqualify him and let them “bring it on.” Joe can invoke the insurrection act and round them all up, including the congressional co-conspirators.

Either we have a constitution or we don’t. If we’re going to let them trample it out of fear of how they’ll react. We’ve already lost.

Thanks for the thread, Thomas. You said it better than I ever could. But I’ll pass on the substack.

While the west is busy discussing whether Jews are white colonialists (we're not), our black Jewish soldiers die protecting us from Hamas. Unbelievable. RIP Nir Refael Knnanian, Birhano Kasiya, Shy Tarmin, Alexander Shpitz.

Chinese buffet. We always did Chinese buffet on Christmas Eve and went to a movie on Christmas Day.

Walked into a large hotel the other day and there was some kind of board game convention going on. All the people were loudly banging on about how good they are at their game and how quickly they got their last checkmate.

And I thought, ugh, I've had enough of these chess nuts boasting in an open foyer.
