Baltimore, Maryland, Orioles, and Jewish stuff, opinions are mine and not anyone I’ve work(ed) for.
I don’t really care about Bob Crachit, what I want to know is how Hershel of Ostropol knew how to defeat the Hanukkah Goblins?

When my dog whines at me it means he could need a walk, however if my wife is cooking it could also mean he’s enforcing our houses kitchen gender norms which means I am not doing my job as I do most of the cooking!

Breaking bad was about a guy who had many opportunities for his healthcare to be paid for (his former business partners, jrs accidental money laundering go fund me), but he preferred selling meth because ruining other people's lives feels more manly than accepting gifts.

Please give if you can, and share widely whether you can give or you can't. RCCS focuses its outreach in the Jewish community, but they help patients of every background with things from helping pick the right doctor to covering costs to arranging needed transportation. They're truly lifesaving.

I’ll go even further: a lot of the white privilege that Ashkenazi Jews enjoy today is built on unstable socio-political terrain. The Third Reich built an entire legal system founded on the notion that we were Not White less than a century ago.
