I've appointed myself my shul's "Goyim Guru" explaining when I was a kid trick-or-treating, if I saw a house with the lights on and they didn't answer the door, I would remember it later on... Please don't give non-Jewish neighbors a reason to think observant Jews are not neighborly. #Halloween

Way to go... [checks notes] Mitch McConnell...?

It's been a long day, but it's after midnight and we are still sitting in our sukkah here in Texas waiting, watching and praying for the Israeli hostages to come home.

F.D.A. Approves Covid Shots With New Restrictions

This all just makes me so angry! Keeping my updated Covid vaccine has kept me from ever getting the disease. Not once. As the recipient of an organ transplant, having people walk around ignoring the disease is dangerous for anyone with a bad immune system. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/27/h...

Live updates: Shooting reported at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis The shooting occurred at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Gov. Tim Walz said.

Breaking news: Multiple children were injured in a shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school, a local hospital says.

Local police said there is “no active threat to the community,” adding that “the shooter is contained.”

So sad to hear of the shooting at the Catholic School in Minneapolis. As the wise Mayor Jacob Frey, a longtime advocate for gun control, said, “Don’t just say this is about thoughts and prayers right now, these kids were literally praying...they were in a church.”

I finished watching Long Story Short on Netflix last night and it was the perfect niche show that I never knew I needed so badly. As a baal teshuva, "The Intervention" knocked me out and the finale left me in tears. Just incredible. I highly recommend.

Someone at my mom's synagogue told her that they didn't finish my special because it's too long, which is a tough review coming from someone who just sat through Saturday morning services.

Calm down, folks, it was just an attempted assassination of a Jewish Democratic governor and his family on the first night of Passover, it’s not like somebody spray painted a dick on a Cybertruck.

Excellent explanation.

How to understand the stock market if you only watch Fox News

Today is #LivingDonorDay and I'd be remiss if I didn't thank my kidney hero Yehuda. I pray more people follow his lead and become donors. How often can someone say they have literally saved someone's life? Contact Renewal to find out how to become a living kidney donor. I can connect you.

My immediate thought was that this episode on its own would make for an incredibly compelling stage play.

The second episode of Adolescence was terrifying to watch as a parent of a middle schooler. This article offers a glimpse of what is happening in schools today.

Just finished watching Adolescence with my husband. This was the best bit of TV I've seen in a long time. The one-shots, the acting, the writing, everything about it was brilliant. Even more so as our 13-year-old just got her first phone and we're learning how to navigate parenting a teen.

One of the benefits of being a night owl is catching the lunar eclipse in the middle of the night.

Clearly people aren't reading my obvious sarcasm... So adding flatly that I do not believe there is a correlation between vaccines and autism. I was riffing on the type of things anti-vax influencers say.

I was just invited to the local yeshiva's dinner because according to the rabbi, I am now considered an alum. Or at least my new kidney went there. #kidneytransplant #kidneyrecipient

Better to kill your child than have a small chance they might develop autism. The GOP is totally the pro-life party...

My kids' Jewish day school just won the Texas State Boy's High School Basketball title!

The Jewish team as Texas State Champs definitely puts a new spin on "Friday Night Lights". 😉

The writing was on the wall, but the official announcement that one of the greatest is retiring still hits hard. Thanks for the memories Diana Taurasi. #wnba

Incredibly grateful that American Marc Fogel was released by Russia but not understanding those Republicans fawning over this release who protested Brittney Griner's release on the same exact charges. We should do whatever we can to get Americans home.

Yeshiva Week: Helping out-of-town Jews see friends from college they haven't seen in over 20 years.

We all need Shabbat so badly nowadays.

Texas education officials approve Bible-based lessons for K-5 schools The optional curriculum for elementary schools aligns with Trump’s plans for a more conservative agenda in public school classrooms.

Public elementary school kids here in Texas will soon be learning that Jesus is the Messiah.

As a proud Jew who can barely afford to keep my kids in Jewish day school, having the fallback of a good public school was a relief. Not anymore.

Trump picks former congressman Sean Duffy to lead Transportation Dept. The transportation secretary will be a key player in the relationship between the government and Elon Musk, CEO of SpaceX and Tesla.

I mean, can't be the only one thinking that Trump found out Sean Duffy once competed on MTV's reality show Road Rules and immediately thought he'd make a great Secretary of Transportation.
