Enjoy. Nothing to see here. In fact, this audio doesn't even exist *&* it was made by Obama. Both things can be true. Amirite? youtube.com/shorts/nOxKXNA…

More photos from our hike at Stones River National Battlefield ( #NPS #TN ). Artillery figured prominently in the Union victory here. 🧵 2/2

31 Dec 1862-2 Jan 1863: U.S. Gen Wm S Rosecrans defeated secessionist Braxton Bragg in battle on the site of the current Stones River National Battlefield. This past Sunday: my wife & I & both our dogs hiked here. Some photos ... 🧵 1/2

#Michigan Humbling to imagine the sacrifice and bravery of these Michiganders (& all Union soldiers) who fought to preserve the Union. Heartbreaking to know that nearly half of MI's citizens now seem intent to vote the MAGA ticket that identifies itself w/the secessionists.

Heneni, literally: "Here I am." The cantor traditionally recites the heneni meditation before services on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, but we're here all year. redbubble.com/shop/ap/551814…

The Heneni series (printed in khaki, black or white against pretty much any color or style of pull-over shirt you choose, front or back) has become my most popular design on Redbubble. redbubble.com/shop/ap/551819…

"Here I am." Perhaps a little the worse for wear, but still, here I am. Heneni. redbubble.com/shop/ap/551745…

@AKBrews May her memory be a blessing.

This weekend, I found out an acquaintance of mine who was my age passed earlier this month. I spent time this weekend digging around online trying to find out how she died. It's interesting that one of our first instincts when someone dies is needing to know how they died.

@estockbridge The approximation rests, your courtship.

Antisemites always explain their antisemitism as a rational reaction to Jews being so offensively and unacceptably Jewish. Today was not the first day that this excuse was voiced, and today won't be the last day either.

"The Jews bring it on themselves" is one of the oldest antisemitic canards out there. Msk isn't being edgy here, he's relying on a trope that's older than dirt and pretending he just figured it out.

Remember Bencjan Gurewicz, born in Bobrujsk, Poland. Murdered in Auschwitz and make of his memory a blessing.

@bo_mccarthy I like the swirls. The color is ... bright. My first thought was, "British traffic cop?" But I'm also thinking: maybe wearing hi-viz on a motorcycle makes sense, and hi-viz w/style would be less highway worker. And I like the swirls.

@bo_mccarthy Wise.
