The fact that Euphoria is a tv show with 3 of our biggest movie stars is easily as ridiculous as anything else in it - but it’s real.

Heckuva April Shower in The Bay. More than 10% the total rainfall in Contra Costa County since last June has fallen in the last 48 hours. 😬 #weirdweather #elnino #ruhroh

It’s really crazy to me that one side of this “divide” is primarily *just* asking their rabbis for the *acknowledgement* of *the obvious fact* that our values are in tension. And the other side (rabbis and org leaders who’s tradition is literally tension and debate) is like, nah you’re not Jews.
Really messed this up given passover! Should have read something like “many Jews will experience an exodus from the bondage of Zionism…” 🫓
For many, the split from Zionism will strengthen our commitment to the positive Jewish values that are the reason the religion has endured as long as it has. And that is a good thing.
Despite whatever discomfort many of us felt about Israel before, it never felt so necessary to make the distinction.
The irony of course is that the Hamas attack was targeted at Israel, not the Jews, but by playing straight into their hand, Jewish religious leaders have managed to weaken both.
The inability of “progressive” Jewish institutions, leaders, and many in the faith to nuance their blanket support of Israel has caused an irreparable skism.
Going forward there will be Zionists (who will call themselves Jews), and there will be explicitly Anti-Zionist Jews (who are just Jews).
Of course it’s a preposterous question. I don’t believe it will be “resolved” so much as we’re going to finally experience a great unraveling of Zionism from Judiasm.
A good article presenting both sides of the debate on whether or not unconditional support for a 75 year old ethnostate should be the most supremely held value of a religion that has been passed down through generations, despite repeated persecution, for 4,000 years
This MF spending money like’s it’s not his
So my bluesky is just a feed of Pete Hegseth crimes now - war crimes, in this case.
Misappropriation of federal funds over $5000 is a felony punishable by up to 10 years jail + $250,000 in fines PER COUNT, plus restitution and asset forfeiture equal to misappropriated funds.
Anyone who approved this shit should enjoy a lifetime of garnished pension checks, from prison!
Even if they weren’t slashing the ever living fuck out of critical services, “Quick, everybody do Brewster’s Billions so it doesn’t go back to the American people!” is a jaw dropping way to treat taxpayer money.
Absolute misappropriation. Heads should roll.
Holy fuck. This makes me actually sick to my stomach. As an American, as a Jew, all of it.
Genuinely stupid and fallacious argument from Mr Wonderballs
What’s that like 6 weeks cash burn?
The elder millennial urge to welcome everybody to the wild wild west
The elder millennial urge disarm you with a smile
The Elder Millennial urge to flip on the tele, wrestle with Jimmy.
Spot on.
Yeah he was weak and ultimately detrimental. It’s possible he didn’t know “all of the above” was a catastrophe (tho it was pretty clear at the time) but I think he’s too smart not to know, which makes it worse. But people loved him then and they love him now which remains surprising to me, too 😜
All I’m saying is: If you think Trump’s climate denial is a problem, know that Obama did it too. Worse IMO, because he told you he was helping when (he knew?) he wasn’t.
😭😭😭
Some half-assed, un-codified rule making, following what the market was already doing to coal.
So Trump could just say “nah.”
If you’re wondering how we got to a place where Trump can declare that the thing that is straight up killing us is not actually a danger, well…
Thanks, Obama!
Coming off Bush’s unprecedented handover of energy policy to big oil, with a generational bully pulpit opportunity, on *an urgent, existential* problem that needs mass communication to compete with Big Oil’s limitless propaganda funds, he didn’t even try.
There are a lot of woulda/couldas in the history of the fight against fossil fuel pollution.
Bush v Gore is probably the worst.
But Obama is #2 and it’s not close.
-Let die in the Senate the only bill actually limiting carbon pollution ever to pass a house of congress.
-Put a natural gas dude in charge of DOE and scolded everyone who said gas and fracking was also, obviously, bad, actually.
Just a lil note for the “that’s my prez” peeps. This MF:
-Lifted the oil export ban
-Bragged about record oil and gas drilling
-Approved northern leg of KXL
-Put a commercial vehicle exemption in CAFE stds that is the reason every car is now a military-grade tank
-Did nothing about Citizens United
Man, the super bowl is really like grocery stores’ super bowl.
