You know; I think the behavior of so many and for this point particularly some fellow Jews is so irrational and over the top that it just maybe what we needed to see?

All I needed to do was ask myself (finally) one question. Apartheid, colonialism, occupation, stolen land; BUT
empowered militant and extreme force empowered by a sadistic dictator that slaughtered millions who was held in esteem by that organization for decades makes its intentions clear to follow the logic of National Socialists (Dont believe me? Just wait) while throwing its own people
off roofs, encouraging the murder of women by their own families, and orchestrates the murder of children and inspires countless acts of terror promises in its own manifesto (for just that little extra something called The Covenent) the following: fas.org/irp/world/para…
People who tend to be on the side of this (genocide of not just Jews but also Arabs and Christians and anyone who happens to be in their way in Israel and now seems to feel empowered to bring that same psychosis to Manhattan) like to talk about the right side of history a lot.
If you are determining what is or isn’t right by these standards you’re either wrong, stupid, pathological, sociopathic, gullible, juvenile or need a better hobby.

Those who can, please stop your daily and weekly organizing (btw at some point this stops being activism & turns
into a religion.) Take a moment to realize that supporting HAMAS is not only supporting Jew Hatred it’s not really anti Zionist. It’s pro bigotry and ACTUAL apartheid.

P.S communal narcissism isn’t a Jewish value and your hypocrisy is...wow!
Oh. And the weird “I acknowledge this is stolen land” while zooming from your gating communities...that REALLY helped too.

Oh. Can’t forget the final push; saying it your bios. Such a sacrifice of characters (not just your character.)You’re so very very special, all of you. TY

Courage

It is in the small things we see it.
The child's first step,
as awesome as an earthquake.
The first time you rode a bike,
wallowing up the sidewalk.
The first spanking when your heart
went on a journey all alone.
When they called you crybaby
or poor or fatty or crazy
and made you into an alien,
you drank their acid
and concealed it. Later,
if you faced the death of bombs and bullets
you did not do it with a banner,
you did it with only a hat to
comver your heart.
You did not fondle the weakness inside you
though it was there.
Your courage was a small coal
that you kept swallowing.
If your buddy saved you
and died himself in so doing,
then his courage was not courage,
it was love; love as simple as shaving soap.

It just hit me. More young Americans have probably read The Communist Manifesto that Washington’s Farewell Address.

More university graduates probably can quote analyze Foucault than that document.

Imagine if people who claim Jan 8th was an insurrection had read and studied
that document. The rage wouldn’t be turned toward their neighbors. It would be turned where it belongs.

I just suggested to a friend that he read this again.

It occurred to me that others may find it equally moving.

It’s my favorite founding document. It’s so beautifully written and achingly timely right now. You’ll both love it and hate how we just seem to have not listened..
..but it ain’t over yet.

“My favorite thing about New York is the people, because I think they're misunderstood. I don't think people realize how kind New York people are.”-Bill Murray

Kind is a really beautiful word. And it’s who we are. She can’t take that from us. The bastards can’t touch it.
From the OED (geekdom rejoice and no a sub isn’t as good as the stacks)

Beautiful word....
See....NY, we really are. Kindred too. No matter how this may all turn out. Just the way it is. Kinda like our glistening silver. It just is.

Flashback Friday.

Coronavirus 2020
...a love story for people who like to boil bunnies but can’t because fur is murder.

March 2020. My first mask. Awww.
Next time say temporary. Always say temporary unless the new reality includes the return of Prince, George Michael, Leonard Cohen and Bowie. They held the fabric of the universe together.
Aww. See it? Our first carrot and stick.

Two weeks to flatten the curve? Nope. Stop the spread. We just didn’t think they’d be...well...power hungry dicks.

It’s funny because we’re so dumb but we put in charge that many Smeegles even dumber than us.
