If you get to Cleveland this summer, highly recommend the awesome “Icons in Ink: The Jewish Comics Experience” curated by Samantha Baskind and Roy Schwartz at the Maltz Museum, Respect for All Humanity.

WWII propaganda is good actually

I have survived my first spill on my new couch

My god, Octavia Butler, just miss ONCE

It's beautiful 🌈

As a veteran™️, I don't think normies get how much of a red flag it is that *none* of the people Platner served with have gone on record to say even something basic like "oh yeah, we were in the same company, didn't know him well but he seemed like a good guy".

👀 my reminder to finally watch WOMAN OF THE HOUR deadline.com/2026/06/anna...

Pride Month starts today, and I’m thinking about the generations of LGBTQ+ leaders, activists, and everyday Americans who sacrificed to push our country forward. This month, we celebrate their courage and make clear we’re not going to let anyone turn the clock back.

Very happy to report I have not seen a single pro Spencer Pratt post from anyone I know in LA

Good morning. #BOTD #filmsky #moviesky

Just thinking longingly of this 2011 Sarah Vowell line from Unfamiliar Fishes: “In the democratic republic where I live, any politician whose genitals have made the news probably isn't going to see his name on a ballot again.”

Affairs are politically relevant because if you are constantly sexting randos you are an unusually blackmailable person; also do you think it’s a coincidence that Chinese spy tried to honeypot Swallwell, with everything we know now

So yes, “Does the potential Democratic Senator from Maine have a Nazi tattoo” is something everyone in 🇺🇸 gets to have opinions about, & we’re not forgetting Maine voters. We can, however - especially those of us who are the very tired Jews - express dismay that they seem just fine with Nazi tattoos.

It weirdly doesn't come up a lot! bsky.app/profile/scio...

A useful context that I wish the "are the White House's statements about Trump's health accurate?" included is the time he tested positive for Covid, went to an in-person debate with Biden, then didn't disclose he had tested positive until he was so sick that he had to be hospitalized

"Gosh, how did we wind up with so many antisemites inside the progressive tent?" is a question that Platner's candidacy is answering in miniature

Marilyn reads Jame Joyce during a photoshoot break. Not staged by photog Eve Arnold, who was shooting an iconic sexpot series of MM. Marilyn was a voracious reader, and kept this copy of Ulysses in her car. She read it a little at a time. Her personal library had over 400 books when she died.

I'm sorry, but I've got to talk about this, because this shit is dangerous. It's a truth universally acknowledged that *at the very least until relatively recently,* Graham Platner was a scumbag. The type of reddit chud who'd blame women for being raped and muse about imagined failings of Black ppl

BREAKING: Du Jour has dropped out of the the Freedom 250 concert, saying “Du Jour means not choosing a side.”

I’m becoming increasingly Ossoff-pilled re. 2028.

We lost Joe Negri yesterday. I've been thinking a lot about the neighborhood recently. I had made myself his hat just a few weeks ago. Makes me feel good, wearing it around. Rest in peace, neighbor.

Yes. Using a computer now feels like this at all times.

Hi, expert on far-right extremism here, a history of domestic violence and misogyny is one of the strongest predictive variables for violent extremism, especially on the right. We've been raising the alarm on this for DECADES but no one cares.

Hey, so fun story, in 2002, I was a freshman in college, I was studying crime and criminology and you know what they told us THE FIRST WEEK "Misogyny is the thread that ties all extremism together" "often goes unnoticed" by NPR, but not by the targets of it or the people paying attention

Makes me a little tired when people assume certain things are broadly popular in Jewish culture because Israel and not that Israel employs certain symbols because they have long been popular in Jewish culture

"I think Graham Platner has some serious issues and this could put Democrats in a bad place and that worries me" is not saying "I am cheering for Susan Collins" and if you think it does, you are acting in lousy faith.

Epistemic arrogance is the attitude of overestimating what one knows, leading to unwillingness to learn from others. Epistemic arrogance is especially harmful because, via the “concealment effect”, it prevents the testimonies of marginalized individuals WHO KNOW from being heard and believed.

Many people "want to believe that those responsible for great deeds or good art are uncomplicatedly great and good themselves. And they want prejudiced people to be readily identifiable, defined by their shortcomings, and easily expunged from our collective canon and society."

If you’re gonna narrate an audiobook about antisemitism I’m gonna ask that at bare minimum you double-check how to pronounce Chabad before recording

these guys have not learned from the last time they fucked with her, and she exposed their shady "cash for NDA" deal, sure try it again and lets see how it works out

This post, about the plight of Jews during the Holocaust, got a lot of engagement. People are seemingly not as interested in the problems Jews are talking about today, when we can do something about it.

Do not watch Sesame Street on Tubi with the subtitles on 😭. I swear, I didn't edit or add anything. Is it hilarious? Yes, but also, they need to fix this immediately. Absolutely incomprehensible and bad

This is a really great piece. I’ve always thought the idea that she was nothing but a sex symbol absurd - if that were so, why would so many women love her and empathize with her so deeply? Her performances were about something else entirely, and if some men couldn’t see that, it wasn’t on her

One thing I've found when I get too invested into arguments that you're losing but refuse to admit it, you tend to go into deranged places to defend yourself.

Shocked, shocked to my core that his army of dudebro supporters in the political class, who are definitely not insecure about what being a liberal says about their own masculinity, didn’t seem to consider this a serious possibility

Wow can’t believe that the manly man candidate for manly men turned out to be NOT THE GREATEST with women.

Van Gogh called his brushwork 'the vibration of life.' Each stroke records both the thing seen and the act of seeing.

we may think statements like this aren’t enough and don’t matter, but an extremely normie, super-Christian woman I work with is *obsessed* with Pedro Pascal and completely reworked her priors regarding trans rights solely because of his opinions on the matter

I’m quite confident that we, the very tired Jews of the world, did not misunderstand the story about a Totenkopf tattoo as being facially about antisemitism.

We have survived the Romans many times, and we'll do it again.

The banning of Keshet, Italy's LGBTQ Jewish group, from Rome Pride is about one thing, and one thing only: a demand for submission. Rome Pride wanted to see the Jews bend, and if they wouldn't bend, they were happy to see them break.

among other things I am just really sick of seeing that man from Maine's bare chest

I think a collapse of social norms against anti-semitism has inspired anti-semites to be more open and they've been unfortunately quite successful in recruitment and in certain spaces normalization.

My pettiest reason for hating Trump 2.0 is that the first Black woman POTUS wouldve been innaugurated on MLK Day and the Semiquincentenniel wouldve been fun, even if it glazed too much of US history, it would have definitely been a more progressive celebration than.. this.

This is what Bruce Springsteen’s America 250 concert is gonna look like drowning out Trump’s youtu.be/HM-E2H1ChJM

He still is! So is @andrealaflamme.bsky.social. MAINE DOESN’T HAVE TO DO THIS.

"Getting a Nazi tattoo when he was drunk 20 yrs ago is OK; he's grown since then." "Blaming rape victims for being drunk 10 yrs ago is OK; he's grown since then." "Calling people f*g**** 5 yrs ago is OK; he's grown since then." "Cheating on his wife 2 yrs ago is OK 'cus he's grown since then."

Also, me! I’m the only declared write-in candidate and I’ve been consistently polling ahead of David. 💁🏽‍♀️

Please don't forget that there is a very solid second candidate running on the Democratic ticket, and to the best of my knowledge he doesn't even have a Nazi tattoo. he's a career USAID guy from an ACTUAL working class family
