And I dropped a dirty sock into my tea...

I can't believe I'm saying this and it's not a meme, but polls close at 7 in Illinois, so if you're in line to vote, STAY IN LINE. You can register TODAY with a piece of business mail and vote TODAY. Every vote counts. It's a sunnier, nicer day out than we all thought it would be! Get out there!

Yes! Go watch this now! It's so gay. Oscar Wilde would fucking love it.

Of course I cannot find the post that I wanted to respond to... So apropos of nothing, I will highly recommend "People Love Dead Jews" by Dara Horn, and "Jews Don't Count" by David Baddiel.

Israel exists because of antisemitism, not the other way around. If people want diasporic Jews to be less beholden to Israel they need to stop being antisemitic. It's so hard to disavow Israel when I know that it's the only place I can go when the rest of the world becomes unsafe for Jews.

I couldn't wear any necklaces at all for decades because of a metal allergy. So now I wear a $200 titanium Star of David necklace because I fucking can. It only comes off for cleaning. I hope to wear it for the rest of my life.

Love the name-dropping of Roger Casement! If you want to learn more about his work for the people of what was then The Congo Free State, I highly recommend "King Leopold's Ghost" by Adam Hochschild

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

I'm slowly (very, very slowly) working on a Haggadah. It will probably end up being a collection of supplemental materials. If anyone has recommendation for things I should add, I'd love to know! Essays, illustrations, memes, threads, songs, etc. Anything!

How many times do I have to block the NYTimes??????

What's Septimus Reading? "Enshittification" by Cory Doctrow.

The temperature dropped like 60° in a day and a half. No wonder I have a headache.

I woke up with like a whole House MD fanfic written in my brain...

I just finished reading "Rabid" by Bill Wasik and Monica Murphy, and it was fascinating. So this is to reminder that now, in 2026, rabies is still 100% (for all intents and purposes) fatal.

I'm watching the Ncuti Gatwa "Importance of Being Earnest" for FREE on YouTube right not (through 3/18), and having subtitles for theater is a revelation.

*breathing heavily* OMG OMG OMG omg

My mom said that after the attack at Temple Israel she's worried about me wearing my Jewish star necklace. So now I'm contemplating getting a tattoo that says "I'm Jewish and there's nothing you can fucking do about it!"

What's the scariest movie you've ever seen? And why?

I actually really enjoy teaching machine sewing 101

It is remarkable how much taking a shower will make you feel like a completely different person.

If you see this, post a vampire that isn’t Dracula

Do other people keep their to-do list in the e-mail drafts? Or just me?

Nothing like losing power in the MIDDLE of making Shabbos dinner... 🙃

Me, listening to the first 5 seconds of a new audiobook: Hey, that sounds like Johnny Heller! The book: "Narrated for you by Johnny Heller."

"You boy, what day is this??"

The message from the Jewish community in Metro Detroit: Today we were attacked. Tomorrow, we reopen for services and worship as usual.

I love Joy. #PittPosting

I spent a while on Twitter/X today (still the better platform for breaking local news) and I forgot just how bad the antisemitism is over there.

Need help with home repair in Detroit? Here’s how to preapply for the city’s latest grant program from @kobylevin.bsky.social. There’s a lot of need in Detroit ... so we’re expecting a waitlist. But you miss every shot you don’t take, so good luck!

I just wanna go home

I can't focus at all at work. Even watching a recorded webinar feels like too much right now. And I feel bad about that.

I grew up about a mile and a half from Temple Israel. I attended many Bar/Bat Mitzvahs there over the years. As well as weddings, graduations, parties, etc. I know people who work there, I know kids who go to classes there, I know people who worship there. This is my fucking community.

thank god thank god thank god thank god thank god

IT'S A FUCKING PRESCHOOL

One of the worst parts of being depressed is recognizing all of the unhealthy patterns in your life, but being unable to do anything about them.

My Best Friend is a Vampire (1982) with Robert Sean Leonard (baby-faced) and Rene Auberjonois.

I saw The Bride. It was incredible. I want to see it again ASAP.

One of my coworkers is a retired math teacher. It is "pi week". We are getting a lot of emails about it lol

I was thinking up some slogans for Yin Yoga, like: "Oops, all shavasana" "Yin: You can always do less"

I did the mental health walk. Why the no mental health?

Y'all, Kenton makes great toys! Go buy some!!!

Come see the gynecologist with me! It's time for my annual appointment.

“While I found this protest appalling, I will not waver in my belief that it should be allowed to happen.”

Completely fucking forgot to do the one small work task I was responsible for today... fuck

This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.

I don't feel very present today.
