Sigh In A Storm

The article "The Delicious Accusation of Genocide," argues the missing variable is Schadenfreude — Richard Landes decade-old term for a Western appetite, rooted in real guilt over real complicity in the Holocaust, for pretending to discover that the survivors turned out to be no better than the people who nearly finished them off. It's not just that the accusation is false. It's that it's enjoyable — which is why it fills city squares and op-ed pages, and why no amount of counter-evidence ever gets it retracted."

The Fuck What

For all the mockery about "Spiritually Israeli" Dubai itself is a vastly more artificial and 'soulless' city with vastly more ethical issues associated with it. But hey "Tel Aviv Impressed" teeheee Jews, right?

I just ordered mine, and the materials are arriving today and tomorrow! I’ve encouraged my workplace to purchase the materials too.

I note this to point out that the reason anti-zionists have to elide this fact is because their position depends for its legitimacy on framing the zionists as the side that sought to claim sovereignty exclusive of arab rights by force and the anti-zionists as the side advocating a shared state when of course in reality it was anti-zionists engaging in violent struggle to deny jews rights and zionists seeking accommodation

Having Cal back as Logan is such a treat after 30 years. This is what Logan sounded like in my youth & then in my head whenever I read a comic. Those of you who've been here awhile might remember the radio drama audition I landed a few years back with my Cal Dodd impression. (You can see bits of it on my TikTok.) Well, that went nowhere. Some guy in Australia with much more money & equipment did exactly the same thing. But I'm still proud of landing that part. If I'd have known Cal would be back just a few years later, I wouldn't have felt so bummed about no one hearing my take on it.

Anyway shoutout to Stonekeep (1995)

Burnt my hand picking it up to show. Gonna wait to taste.

Definitely make these!

preheat oven to 350. grease muffin tins (one dozen regular size) or use baking cups. mix flour, sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, baking powder, baking soda and salt in a large bowl. Break eggs into another bowl. add pumpkin and butter and whisk until blended. stir in chocolate chips. pour over dry ingredients and stir until just blended. do NOT overstir! scoop batter into tins and bake 20-25 minutes. after cooling, keep muffins wrapped in plastic to avoid drying.
