Another column I wrote about those first weeks after his death. forward.com/opinion/410432…
I was just sending this to someone and thought to tweet it too. No book helped me wrap my mind around my dad’s suicide like this one. amzn.to/32pectP
And this five minute video as well.
I hear from a. lot. of people about suicide every year. Those links - Sue Klebold’s book and that video - are what I send them. I wish it didn’t take me a decade to find them.

On Jewish Instagram, @MelissaSChapman is making a ruckus because she dared say Jews should marry Jews.

The fact that this is in any way a controversial statement is a stain on how gutless American Jewish organizations have been about the reality of Jewish continuity for decades
If you care about your faith and your community, you should marry within your faith and your community. Faith and community are important. You should have shared values with your spouse. This is in no way controversial.
Probably billions of dollars have been spent trying to make the Jewish community more open and welcoming to intermarried families. Why? People have made their choice to leave the community. Jewish resources should not be dedicated to people to whom Judaism is not important.

Since COVID, we’ve done one crazy thing and it has led to our family getting sick *a lot* less frequently. Read this 🧵 to find out more.
We wash our hands a lot more. That’s it.
I just have been seeing a lot of people do this stupid clickbait thing in an effort to gin up their engagement.

I keep showing my kids the movies I watched as a kid and realizing OH MY GOD none of the movies I watched as a kid are kids movies At. All.
Day After Tomorrow: Not a kids movie.
Volcano: Extremely not a kids movie.
Here’s what I remember from Volcano (Tommy Lee Jones, Anne Heche):

There was a volcano. It was rerouted. Yay.

What actually happened: So many people burned to death in lava. Then it was rerouted. Yay?

The hardest conversation I have ever had was with the family of these children. I helped them get their family’s story into media to combat terror misinformation about this video. Their mother was killed in front of them. Her body booby trapped and left undiscovered for days.
The terrorists and their supporters claimed they were cared for and released. The reality was they were left in the border area near Gaza because they cried too much, abandoned. They were saved when a neighbor saw them and escaped with them, risking her life to save theirs.
I am deeply and forever grateful to @jaketapper for his work telling their story, and the stories of so many other families for whom the last year has been filled with deep pain.

Please take the time to watch this. Thank you, Jake.

The new Super Hitler has a Jewish daughter, three Jewish grandchildren and was unapologetically supportive of the Jewish state. Quite the plot twist.
Listened to @IvankaTrump recently on the @lexfridman podcast and was so pleased to hear how she multiple times wove Jewish thought and teaching into their conversation. She’s a gift to the Jewish people.
@IvankaTrump @lexfridman Dovi linked them here:

In honor of D-Day, buckle in for the story of how a Jewish soldier from Pittsburgh ended up in a Nazi mass grave, and how through dogged determination, will be buried with full military honors in Normandy later this month. Image
Lieutenant Nathan Baskind, of Pittsburgh, PA, came ashore on Utah Beach on D-Day with the 899th Tank Destroyer Battalion. Engaged in fierce battle, he went ahead of his troops to reconnoiter their position in the Battle of Cherbourg June 23, 1944. He was never heard from again.
A search of contemporaneous German war records revealed that Baskind was ambushed and shot, taken prisoner by the German army, and sent to a Luftwaffe field hospital. Later on the 23rd, Nathan Baskind died, and was buried together with 23 German soldiers in a mass grave.
