I recently learned that I have the 86th largest Mastodon account, out of 14.5 million total accounts. I'm proud to single-handedly lower the quality of the top 100.

What do you call a pandemic that people think is over?

A pandemic.

@TonyStark “A “Trump dictatorship will not be a communist tyranny, where almost everyone feels the oppression and has their lives shaped by it,” he writes. “The fact that this tyranny will depend entirely on the whims of one man will mean that Americans’ rights will be conditional rather than guaranteed.”

The same people that think rising antisemitism isn't a problem will advice you against wearing a yamaka in public

The cognitive dissonance from gentiles is magnificent

Here are some of the orphans we were able to support, learning in a classroom:

Stay safe out there.

Best,

I’m very proud to announce that we’ve raised $1,500, enough for Mohammed’s urgent surgery.

On top of that, we raised another $1,000 for the orphans at the House of Light (‘A Noor Home’).

Thank you for the good you do, and for being a loyal reader.

Every time somebody is crassly antisemitic to me in public, my wife is aghast and everybody else acts like I'm made of glass, when I usually am trying not to burst out laughing at what ludicrous, silly, and pathetically ineffectual people they are.

On the other hand, when people are slickly antisemitic, speaking with the power of the violent populism they have at their back, causing my blood to run cold and worry about my immediate and long-term safety, the response is waffling about maintaining relationships (not usually from my wife).

This thought brought to you by an antisemite being escorted out of a (famously Jewish!) restaurant for screaming because he saw my kippah.

Domestic problems cannot be solved if they are not identified.

I’m concerned that in the long term if things don’t go well, the U.S. will be held out as a scapegoat.

It’s always easier to blame an external entity than to do the hard work of reflecting on one’s own mistakes.

Of course, the real and primary blame lays squarely on Russia, which decided to launch a full-scale invasion of #Ukraine.

Montanans have a #FirstAmendment right to use TikTok to speak and access information online, and the company has a First Amendment right to select and curate users’ content. So we’re glad a federal judge struck down Montana’s TikTok ban.
