città arancione 🧡

i’ll admit she’s much cuter than me

walking the dog in rome is so humbling because people i’ve known since i was born are like “violetta!!!” (the dog) and no one cares about me… meanwhile they saw her yesterday when my mother was walking her and haven’t seen me for four months and probably won’t for another four

farfalla being a genius smart brilliant girl who knows masto is the best restaurant in rome

you don’t count you don’t say anything 🫣

regardless the only person i know over here is mark copelovitch and he was a great professor and big thank you to his wife for hiring me to teach hebrew school in madison but need to diversify a bit

got tired of complaining it’s boring over here and decided to try to crosslist everyone who follows me on twitter and i found that six nazis follow me. like swastika ones. like real real real ones. like ones that say the world owes hitler an apology. now i’m so scared.

standing on the banks of the tiber when i get a text from my neighbors back home about the heat and i think what if i just jump in

buona domenica !!!!

trying to explain bluesky to the italians this is almost as hard as trying to convince them sushi is not chinese food

thought about adding the hebrew but wasn’t sure if that would be more or less helpful! but yes sooooo good!!

sabich!

when did the train to siena get so long…. nana and i have already beat a dead horse like six times how many more

why did no one tell me the trams are down and the bus never came and i had to trek my suitcase 45 minutes to get to my aunt’s apartment for shabbat dinner also i was in a bad mood from the plane

now that it’s morning i can admit i almost rage quit over atac roma last night

i do some of my best thinking on the leonardo express tbh

eating my favorite food in the world from my favorite restaurant in the world though YUM

added on a day to my visit to italy to come to jerusalem for a funeral but now the body hasn’t been released yet like it was supposed to so it’s like a weird kind of sad but also kind of not one day random sidequest

twitter scary again back to just saying stuff here love to just say stuff

i HATE lufthansa too

i HATE frankfurt airport

Sure hope Jonathan Greenblatt is feeling good about himself right about now.

i feel sad and happy and angry and jealous and worried and hopeful but i keep thinking had a deal been reached earlier (and it could have been) i could have celebrated too.

you could literally have 14 of them if you want

18 (!!!!!!) help

in reality i’m just working on an indictment

i have been telling people that the icc is breathing down my neck all day but now i’m realizing it kind of sounds like i did an international crime and they’re looking for me

going back to italy soon for like no time but will be bringing my most giant suitcase to bring back a horde of products the tariffs are making it impossible to get here now 😵‍💫

but what war is bibi going to start next to avoid his corruption votes ?!?

To be clear, when I say Trump is preventing it, I don’t mean to say he’s literally stopping antisemitism.

I mean that pretending to care about antisemitism has been useful for him & the right. So they spread coded antisemitism instead.

But we are getting closer to mainstream *overt* antisemitism.
