@Davidlederer6 @LishiBaker @edenyadegar It’s almost like their accusations reveal their hand.

Remember when Ilhan Omar accused American Jews of dual loyalty? Here’s her daughter protesting Veterans Day for Palestine at Columbia. How’s that for dual loyalty…

@OliLondonTV I'm shocked no one considers her "entertaining" anymore ;)

Susan Sarandon BLACKLISTED from Hollywood over antisemitic remarks. The Thelma & Louise star has admitted she made a ‘terrible mistake’ for her past antisemitic comments and anti-Israel activism and has now issued an apology, after acting roles dried up. “I was dropped by my agency, my projects were pulled. I’ve been used as an example of what not to do if you want to continue to work.” Source: Sunday Times

The Chicago Stationery Fest was born in New York when Tyler McCall of Chicago's Paper & Pencil attended its winter markets. Now, as his consumer-facing event mimics “trade-only” events, I have to wonder, are we are on the verge of a stationery renaissance? thepapernerd.com/portfolio/tyle…

@AkanButNoJeezyy She dodged a man-baby sized bullet there!!

Y’all wanted Alex to be the villain so bad when the real villain is Tim. #LoveIsBlind #LoveIsBlinds7

Don’t mind me swooning for the latest holiday edition of the @sugarpaperla x @Target collab. Every year I ask the same question, Groundhog Day-style: How exactly is such stellar, stylish packaging reinvented every year — and at such reasonable prices?? thepapernerd.com/the-greatest-g…

Ta-Nehisi Coates jumping into the Israeli-Palestinian fray reveals how anti-Zionism is the ultimate manifestation of wokeness and its self-contradictory bigotries and moral shortcomings. In classic woke fashion, Israel’s own legitimate grievances are inverted, and the narrative of oppressor-oppressed is flipped: blatant genocidal declarations from its enemies are ignored while Israel’s military responses to massacres and indiscriminate bombing are misrepresented as genocide; Israel is singled out for apartheid by modern practitioners of apartheid, dhimmitude, and slavery — countries that have ethnically cleansed virtually every Jew from their midst; terrorist organizations that brutalize not only Israelis but their own people are called "freedom fighters"; Zionists are accused of settler-colonialism over a tiny piece of land by those defending a growing 1,400-year-old religious colonialist empire that is 600 times its size — the list goes on. But what really stands out is the woke rejection of incrementalism — they don’t advocate for compromise or reform but for the dismantling of entire "systems of oppression", and in this case, the system they want dismantled is Israel itself. It's why they only call for "ceasefire" as soon as Israel responds to attacks instead of "peace". It’s all or nothing, and in their view, nothing less than the erasure of a Jewish state will satisfy their vision of "justice".

Every December for the past quarter century, @pantone grabs headlines with its Color of the Year (COTY) announcement. Peek behind the color curtain with me as the incredible Leatrice Eiseman, who generates every selection, drops in #thepaperfoldpodcast! thepapernerd.com/portfolio/leat…

For years, Vicky Enright worked for greeting card companies and as an invitation designer. Her hope with her #stationery brand #ElsabellePaperCo. is to create joyful designs. “I mean, when we send cards, are we not spreading joy and love around?” thepapernerd.com/a-new-bloom-on…

Incredible: A coalition of Jewish, Hindu, and Iranian Muslims came together and took a stand against evil.

These are text messages, exactly as they were written and sent, between a mother and her two daughters during yesterday’s shooting at Apalachee High School. The family shared the texts with The Washington Post. Both daughters were unharmed and now safe.

What will *you* leave your loved ones behind? Thank you to @The_CJN for letting me share a moving #hallbecker column on #thepapernerd — it's illustrated with some of my all-time fave #stationery finds, including the always-incredible @sugarpaperla. thepapernerd.com/what-we-leave-…

In America, back to school season is also the start of school shooting season. It doesn’t have to be this way. Children should never have to go through this.

@CarmineSabia We all bleed the same color.

The shame is right now there are Republicans and Democrats, black people and white people, straight people and LGBTQ people waiting to see who the Apalachee High School shooter in Georgia is so they can use it for their narrative.

I often write about how younger generations must make stationery their own to sustain it. But, they don’t get it all to themselves! For example, Gen Xers like Polly of #OutOnAWhimGreetings have been doing stationery *long* before it was cool! thepapernerd.com/the-ultimate-w…

Today should have been Uzi’s first day of 7th grade. We should have spent the morning trying to get him out of the bathroom because he was spending so much time on his hair and not letting his siblings in. He would have been starting Jr. High. Instead, he’s in an urn in our living room. Instead, he’s spending the day with me instead of his friends. Instead of getting new shoes for the school year, he’s positioned right by his shoes he wore that day. Instead of being joyous today like every other family, we are broken. We are torn. We fake the motions to get through the day.
