What about shouting into the void?

For those who aren't keeping up, Mamdani is a Zionist now (for condeming swastika graffiti on a yeshiva)

Oh, you have no idea how hard it was to type that post.

Marathons bring out the best in humanity. The idea of people standing on the sidelines and cheering non-elite athletes, at like hour 4 of the race, just because those runners are trying really hard to accomplish something... the whole scene makes me cry every time.

Ted Cruz to Jewish Republicans: Antisemitism is ‘an existential crisis in our party’ “How many elected Republicans do you see standing up and calling this out?” Cruz said.

Never thought I'd have reason to praise Ted Cruz, but 👏. We all need to be better about calling out antisemitism in our own political tribes. The instinct is to only see it when it's the other team doing it, but that's not how antisemitism works and not how we'll fix it. forward.com/fast-forward...

A modest proposal: combine Halloween, World Book Day and Purim.

It certainly will make it a bit easier at your citizenship ceremony to swear allegiance to His Majesty, his heirs and successors.

Dorian Lysnkey and The Mountain Goats bantsing around is a nostalgic throwback to the golden age of social media.

And what does "give more than they take" mean, anyway? Is this a mathematical formula, like taxes paid minus benefits received? If someone gets expensive but life-saving treatment on the NHS while they have ILR, does that make them a financial burden and therefore not worth keeping?

As someone who spent years filling in paperwork and paying countless thousands of pounds to acquire Indefinite Leave to Remain (and then eventually citizenship), it is horrifying to think that people who have done all of that may simply have their status revoked. This language needs to stop.

Are people in Newcastle allowed to say that? Stay safe.

If the Nazis had only employed an Equal Opportunities Minister, we never would have got ourselves into this predicament.

Actually in British English an apostrophe can go anywhere you like. It’s just there for vibes.

The phrase "successive governments" is having a moment.

Not for the first time Netanyahu prefers the global far right to the Jewish diaspora

Which is to say: If you are suggesting that the attack was somehow deserved because all Jews support Israel, you're being antisemitic.

And if you think that the attack shows why the state of Israel is behaving as it is in Gaza, you are being awful.

The attack on the Manchester synagogue was antisemitic violence.

If you're talking about Israel (from any perspective) in conjunction with it, you're either being awful or antisemitic or both.

It's good to be on a platform where people express normal human empathy and dismay at the horrific synagogue attack rather than on one where they weaponise it for their grubby, divisive purposes and try to turn a tragedy into an opportunity

You've stirred up your share of controversy before, but are you sure you want to do this?

This is important.

Elon Musk’s X is the “go-to platform for antisemitic posters,” according to a new year-long study shared exclusively with CNN: https://cnn.it/3Wbsj0W

Back in the day there was a freeview channel, I think maybe More4, that was essentially 24-hour Friends reruns. Meanwhile hardly anyone here has ever seen Seinfeld. It's just wrong.

Seriously. If DiBlasio could win as a proud Red Sox fan, then clearly there is no answer that is disqualifying.

Certain scenes get scratched into your soul

I've created an epic playlist that will go from "private" to "public" so that my impeccable taste in music will continue to inspire people long after my passing.

I travel a lot for work and do this all the time. Songkick is what you're looking for. Add a new city to your list of tracked places. Then just un-track it once you're done.

Really not sure why any British politician or UK government department is still posting on X. Closing all those accounts would be actual, and instant, "consequences".

Someone send the Big Papi signal.

It’s amazing the mistakes you can make when you’ve never read a single thing about the history of antisemitism and have your head all the way up your arse
