Despite crazy siren after siren speeding down my street, F18 fly-overs (why?) and my nerves shattered by the big ghoulish sadistic bill, I know surrender to darkness is not an option. There is only one direction, forward, and only one goal, that all the world might live in peace, in plenty, in love.

Do you mean the Timothy Chalamet (sp?) Film? It's delightful.

Trey I was responding mostly to warring factions on the Left but really everyone who demonizes those who disagree with them and mischaracterize their opinions.

OMG Everybody is driving me crazy. PLEASE:
1. Live by your values, beyond whatever your tribe affiliation. Are you clear what they are? Write them on the mirror.
2. Make sure you have the real 911 - not JUST what your algorithm serves up. Did s/he really say that? Or does it just confirm a bias?

Do you believe that day is inevitable?

But maybe re-check your definition of Zionism. It simply means the right of the Jews to have a state in their homeland. Bibi is not the definition of Zionism.

I have no hate. I see God in everyone. No matter how twisted. I do have fear. I fear Trump's aggressive cruelty and fascist moves. I also fear Mamdani's aggressive anti- Zionism. I feel unsafe everywhere.

Yeah, one of my friends posted that th e two were on their periods and I was shocked at the misogyny

I know the blue as love-in-the-mist and the purple as Canterbury bells, but I am no expert!!

June. Andy Warhol and me.

Every June my neighbor Joe brings me peonies from his yard.

Gotta a whole lotta love in the mist

Same. Same.

Aren't others silly?

Actually not true. Ahmed Fouad Alkhatib immediately posted. He is an anti-Hamas Gazan seeking a peaceful solution, and someone this Jew greatly admires.

Thank you. First Gentile I've heard speak out.

@msnbc.com.
So y'all think we Jews need to hide? That's your advice? Don't exercise your freedom of speech in public?? Wow.

So sorry you are ill. Maybe your post IS your poem. You owe no one anything.
