The St. Louis Jewish community is largely pre-Shoah, so I don’t know that there would be many, if any, survivor graves there. My friend whose grandparents’ graves were desecrated has her roots in St. Louis back into the 1800s. But even for families with no Shoah connection, this is still a brutal experience,…

During the last bomb threat, there was a Hartford Courant photo of freezing, wet children huddling in towels outside my local JCC. They had jumped out of the pool and run straight to a designated spot outside. So every time I see news of another antisemitic incident, I picture chubby little girls in arm floaties and…

A friend’s grandparents’ graves are among the desecrated. She found out today, on her grandfather’s yahrzeit. It’s so heartbreaking.

There’s a crowdsourced Goodreads list at https://www.goodreads.com/list/show/105470.Why_Trump_Won_Understanding_the_2016_Electorate 

I’m convinced that the only way to get rid of Bannon is to keep taunting Trump over everyone knowing that Bannon’s the big boy. He knows he needs help but can’t stand other people knowing it, too. If he realizes Bannon is overshadowing him, he will (hopefully) can him just as he’s done with others.

Don’t forget to contact the Homeland Security Committee at https://www.hsgac.senate.gov/contact and (202) 224-4751 to demand that 1) Bannon and other political staff be kept off, and 2) the DNI and Chair of the Joint Chiefs be put back. The committee is tallying calls and messages, so please help out!

Looking forward to the day when Viola Davis stops getting Wronged Black Woman™ roles. Jesus, enough already, Hollywood. Black women can be love interests in rom-coms, too. Take your La La Land money and fund that.

Same. I only wish more colleagues would post video publicly on Twitter instead of privately on Facebook. For the life of me, I don’t understand why everyone’s holding back.

The entire Washington Post newsroom saw it happen because it was right outside the window. The police kept denying it even as reporters were like, “Uhhhh we have footage/bleeding ears.”

“Judge Jeannie” (or whatever her name is) talked about the march while showing footage of blackblockers from Friday night.

Well...no. The original organizers were white, cis, able-bodied, affluent women. They diversified under pressure, and a lot of white women publicly refused to participate any longer. There have been a lot of articles written about the internal clash over race amongst organizers and participants alike.

Michelle has the classic “just got a Christmas toy from Walgreens” look.

I’ve always assumed it’s her Chris Pine sexts that freak out his family: http://gawker.com/5890506/olivia-munns-super-dirty-alleged-naked-pics-lick-my-tight-asshole-and-choke-me

She continued: “It also claims the Trump campaign colluded with the Kremlin, which would be a capital offense, but oh my God, DJT likes to douse beds in floozy pee!”

“The height of artistic and cinematic crudeness conjoined” was my favorite line because it’s so darn true.

Reminder of context: Donald Glover was raised in the Jehovah’s Witnesses. (I was as well.) Not only is magic in its most literal sense banned, you’re not really allowed to dream big or have fantasies about your future. There’s no wonderment. There’s no delight. Becoming a performer, artist, athlete, or anything else…

I’m partial to Cheetolini myself.
