I miss Obama.

Yeah. But that person wasn’t Tom Brady. Brady could be standing with a gun in his hand and a dead body at his feet and blood spatter on his face, and I am certain he’d have fans who would say it was all a set up.

I am a Colts fan, and I second this statement.

This is why I refuse to go to Boston. I am a sports fanatic but fans like that...who can’t accept criticism or don’t want to hear that not everybody loves their team...who think they’re better than everyone and don’t hear how obnoxious they are...I can’t. It’s why I don’t like Raiders fans, either.

America, where victim blaming is our national sport.

I have not been so happy in weeks. Teen girl squad! The teenage girls between 13 and 19!

Dag, yo.

Family is a big impact. Even I, a terrible Jew, from a mixed family of Jews and non-Jews, sort of struggle with the idea of not marrying someone Jewish because my kids will be raised to be Jewish regardless. Like I can marry someone who isn’t Jewish as long as they accept that fact, and so essentially I have to marry…

It’s possible. Or their family may have a lot of pull at their synagogue, which is likelier, because of their status and previous donations. So a donation may not necessarily be a direct cause, but it could be a motivator.

It’s attending a synagogue, meeting the rabbi, discussing your desire to be Jewish and having regular meetings with the rabbi over the entire process, as well as the cantor. The rabbi essentially takes you on and vouches for you, sort of sponsor-like. It’s being required to attend synagogue for Torah study, learning…

Then you are dismissing the rightful anger of every black person. It’s not about you, so you feel okay being embarrassed for her and feeling a bit bad for her.

Of course not.

It’s not punching down by holding her responsible for her choices. It’s Kendall Jenner, not some naive wide eyed 16 year old from Nebraska who is new to LA and has no idea what the industry looks like and means.

I mean...but people in Jerusalem are always arguing over the legitimacy of conversions performed by any rabbi that isn’t like, ultra orthodox and therefore “truly Jewish.” Like your marriage isn’t even real in Israel unless it was done in a synagogue, which is why a lot of secular Jewish Israelis go to Cyprus. So…

Yeah, hence my lack of faith. I know not all rabbis are the unshakeable pillars of Jewish faith and learning that they’re supposed to be. They’re still human, and being surrounded by wealthy people every day fucks with your head. And there are plenty of shady rabbis who are more interested in book deals than being the…

Those hotlines are useless for feelings like that. I have suicidal thoughts constantly due to my chronic depression, and I don’t need someone to take them seriously because they’re not. I need them to understand that they’re just a massive fucking inconvenience. They are brain clutter and intrusive but not something I…

Rabbis are usually very strict about conversion and won’t convert someone who they don’t feel truly embodies the spirit and tenets of Judaism, who doesn’t understand what it means, who doesn’t really want it. It’s a process that can take over a year. It’s a big commitment.

I agree. Owning toddlers is dangerous business. It’s why I sold mine last year.

Your brain may not be done developing, but in our culture, 21 is a fucking adult. You do stupid shit at that age, sure, but you’re still held accountable.
