Chanuka at the courthouse! Stop by my office for some gelt (chocolate money), spin a dreidel, and enjoy some much-needed light from the Chanukiya. Chag Urim Sameach to all who are celebrating.

May we see an end to all violence and suffering for all peoples, and never have to mark another Tish’a Be’av again.

This afternoon I will watch October 8 - a film that chronicles the continuing explosion of antisemitism, particularly on North American campuses (available through Prime Video and Apple TV).
English
Today, on Tish’a Be’av - the Jewish day of national mourning - the millennia-long cycle of Jewish tragedy is laid out before us. Last night we read the anguished words of Jeremiah from megillat Eicha as he watched the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem.

Saw more Jews I know at the @MichaelRapaport show tonight than I did at Shul this morning. Thanks for helping us laugh during these difficult times!

@TristinHopper There’s a lot more to Canadian Tire than tires. 😜

I don't know what's more troubling. That Canadian Tire sells fishnet tights, or that the algorithm has guessed that I would be interested in buying fishnets at a hardware store.

@JewishSpaceLazr When I was first in Israel as a 16yr old in the shadow of the Gulf War, I remember seeing a sign on Ben Yehuda advertising a sale on models of the Second Temple: “Act Now before the third temple is built and prices go up!”
