Your regular reminder that the more often you own your mistakes, the easier it gets. It is like any muscle-- work it more and it gets stronger. All people mess up, and sometimes we do so publicly. It's not the end of the world to acknowledge that we missed the mark; it's how we clean up.

If you still have friends/family who think this administration will help them, talk to them about money....

so far going anti-woke leads to less money and planes falling out of the sky

The MRI is the most Faustian bargain, Gom Jabbar shit I have ever been through. “Lay in this small metal tube for a few hours while a chorus of the damned screams obscenities into your soul. If you maintain your sanity the machine will tell you secrets about your body”

Cantor Mike Zoosman embodies the holy work of the clergy role. Below—read!—he quotes Elie Weisel: “With every cell of my being I oppose the death penalty. I do not believe any civilized society should be at the service of death. I don’t think it’s human to become an agent of the angel of death.”

Copy and quote-skeet this with a genuinely decent song whose music video aged hilariously: youtu.be/USujNc5uPBs?...

This is the greatest music video ever made

Geocities chic! Disagree, imho this video is amazing (but maybe not in the way we would have experienced it in 1992 granted)

Ohhh this is a great entry into Videos Aging Badly genre

IMPORTANT: I have done a comprehensive survey of one’s possible musical options during an MRI and can state conclusively that Deep House is always the way to go. Don’t fight the horrid noises. Work with them. (Also tested: Classical, Music I Dig Now, various iterations of Music Loved at 16).

So. Many. Shitheads. In the replies to this. It is not "standing with Palestine" to attack a Jewish person mourning dead Israeli civilians, any more than it's "standing against antisemitism" to excuse the Netanyahu government's genocidal actions against Palestinians.

This is beautiful and worth reading

Empathy, like love, is not a zero-sum game. In fact I would argue that the more you allow yourself to feel, the more you are capable of feeling.

This song and video is an absolute treasure trove of music, dance, and fashion history. Someone could write a doctoral dissertation on the sheer star power involved and all the threads that led up to this moment in time. www.youtube.com/watch?v=YW0s...

This is an excellent piece (read it before you comment), that includes a quote from my wonderful rabbi.

Copy and quote-skeet this with a genuinely decent song whose music video aged hilariously: www.youtube.com/watch?v=dMSF... Directed by experimental Polish filmmaker Zbigniew Rybczyński...and somehow just looks comical instead.

READ BEFIRE YOU COMMENT. Way too many people on this didn't read the letter/article and made quick assumptions. This article is somethings everyone needs to read but for goodness sakes READ BEFORE YOU SAY ANYTHING. Sorry about the caps but some people just forgot how to read.

"These babies, this mother, this elder should have lived, no matter what. There is nothing that justifies their deaths. And it is simultaneously true that the Palestinian infants, toddlers, children murdered in bombings, by freezing, by hunger do not matter less than these babies."
