Just, you know, getting ready for Gameday tomorrow. @mubb
My mom grew up in an Irish/Jewish neighborhood in Chicago; her best friend was Annie Weiner. I was named for her. In 1977, I was in college in MKE; when neo-Nazis announced a march on Skokie, I made plans to go and protest.
They can't kill us all.

After the Holocaust, a Jewish survivor said, "you know, Hitler himself didn't kill a single Jew. HE DIDN'T HAVE TO." I will never be silent as long as anti-semitism exists. So I guess I will never be silent. 😪
A kosher family-owned bakery in Montreal was burned to the ground last night.
In September, the same bakery was targeted by someone who walked in and shouted, “All the Jews will burn.”

I would like to know if there is a way to order from any of these Jewish restaurants on Rittenhouse Square online? I live in Minnesota, but I would like to participate in supporting these American citizens against this kind of hate. #rittenhousesquare #Jewish #neveragain
Gee, if only the Grand Old Party had known this might happen................................................#Cassandra #reckoning #DeCivitate
Does this qualify as a crashout?

Q: “Should republicans look to you as some kind of savior going forward?”
A: “There’s no saviors in politics. Elected officials are supposed to be servants.”

Tyler Kolek was a +13 in only 5 min played last night.
Jose Alvarado recorded 1 block and no other stats in 9 min played, and was a -3.
I really do think Alvarado is useful in some areas, but I think Kolek deserves a longer leash to be the true backup PG for the time being.
11 high school seniors visited my class for College Consideration Day today. They were thinking it was Anatomy and Physiology class, only to discover that they had somehow erred and were in fact sitting in on a discussion of Jean-Paul Sartre's NAUSEA. And that is why I love life.

Governor DeSantis BLASTS Kristi Noem for bungling mass deportations and turning it into a shit show for her own glory.
DeSantis BLASTS Congressmen like Byron Donalds for making millions on the stock market.
DeSantis BLASTS Alina Habba for getting a $10 million government contract and securing a presidential pardon for her boyfriend.
“If the people in office don't display some civic virtue about public service as a sacrifice. It's not to use the public office for private gain.
I declined the pension in Congress. I declined the health care. I didn't trade the stocks.
And I believe in congressional term limits. I mean, imagine if you went to the American people and actually tried to get that done. That's not right or left. That's something that a lot of people realize.. These guys work for themselves. They should be working for you.”
I can announce that I am now ready to say that Marquette has the best team in college basketball. My view *may* be based on a small sample. #mubb
