I’ve found myself navigating the concept of “home” as I’ve gotten older. I think I’m just now starting to come to terms with what it means to me. I’ll be sharing my story 12/22 at @Schubas alongside @FrankWaln & @DemiAmparan. Shed tears with us. Laughter or sadness. Both welcome.

I’m proud to stand as a Type 1 Diabetic fighting for Medicare for All (even when my meter beeps). I’m proud to take on the corrupt money in Washington and build a campaign truly powered by the people. I’m committed to you. I know we can win this together.

Israeli officials have announced that they have killed 60 Hamas member. With 12,000 Palestinian civilians killed, I would Hamas is the collateral damage.

No. Sorry. They are not “collateral damage” they are human beings who happen to have been born there and live there and most of those human beings are stuck there. Have some compassion, they are Palestinians not buildings or roads or things, they are human beings and so are the hostages whose lives you may also be destroying. They aren’t “collateral damage” either. “Netanyahu Calls Palestinians ‘Collateral Damage’ As Israel Destroys Gaza” huffpost.com/entry/benjamin-…

Where’s this energy when playing Israel? Or when playing in Russia? Qatar deserves a lot of criticism and the whole thing is a sham but the selective outrage is curious to say the least.

Extraordinary from Denmark kit supplier Hummel: "We don’t wish to be visible during a tournament that has cost thousands of people their lives. We support the Danish national team all the way, but that isn’t the same as supporting Qatar as a host nation."

So my son just got his grade back on an essay comparing laws in Israel to Apartheid-era South Africa. He got a zero. Not an 80 for grammar, or 75 for source citations - just a 0. This won’t stand.

Nets are listing Ben Simmons as OUT for Game 4 vs. Celtics. A surprise as Simmons had been expected to play Monday as long as rehab was on course.
