Doesn’t that make her a DEI hire?

We’ve beaten fascism before. We must remember the lessons of the past, we must try to educate the friends of ours who have been misled by the authoritarians in our government. And we must raise our voices. Repeatedly Loudly. Firmly. Together. (7/7)

Yesterday, the very people who venerated Charlie Kirk, decided that his words about freedom of speech didn’t matter. I’m not sure whether to call this hypocrisy or fascism or merely a lust for power. But however, you name it, indicates a massive sea change in the history of the United States. (6/7)

the good fight on behalf of the people. In one sense, Charlie Kirk did that. He fought for freedom of speech, something that all of us should hold dear. (5/7)

But in light of all of this many on our side have been shocked with the way the man has been venerated; this includes me. I don’t believe his life was worthy of lying in state in the capital or flags being flown at half mast. We reserve these honors for people who were statesman, or who fought (4/7)

Statements that are easy to find on his podcast, his Instagram and in general all around the Internet. He did make racist statements. He did make misogynistic statements. He did make antisemitic statements. There is no sense debating this; the proof exists, easily found. (3/7)

We didn’t celebrate Charlie Kirk’s murder. We were horrified by the way in which he lost his life. We’re saddened by the loss his widow and his fatherless children must feel. But we also said clearly that we disagreed with statements he made. (2/7)

A lot has happened in the last week in this country, and to me personally, but that’s a different story. There are a lot of people that I would like to read this, but unfortunately, most of them have unfriended me because of political differences. (1/7)

I think MAGA Flakes would be a great name for a cereal. “Contains no nutritional value at all”

My wife’s cousin said by (and I agree):
“Shouldn’t the fact that somebody tried to murder the Governor of Pennsylvania and his family be a bigger story?”

Economic boycott on February 28? Check.
To me that also includes television and social media.

at the Episcopal one. Bishop Budde is a perfect example of “religion done right.” (2/2)

I’m Jewish. I spent the last 10 years teaching at an Episcopal school. We had chapel twice a month, and the precepts of the church were as active part of our curriculum. I’ve worked at a number of other schools in my 40 years of teaching but I felt the most comfortable expressing my Judaism (1/2)

Controversial opinion:
I think all Christians should celebrate Chanukah. If the Macabees hadn’t won back control of the Temple 163 years before the birth of Jesus, the events of his life (and death) might have been very different.

I made the decision to leave Twitter/X the day it became official that Elon had purchased it. I closed my account, deleted the app on my phone and iPad and haven’t looked back. I used Threads for a while but Blue Sky has had a more promising start. Here’s to positivity.

This the season…

Art becoming reality

The star on the Cowboys helmet? It’s not a logo, it’s a rating.

Bennie is hopeful.

Since Mac OS fits in that dream, I approve of this message.

Joon is silently judging you.

Blue sky? Ok, here you go.
