I am trying to find the family of Adolf Synaj as his path crossed with my great-grandparents in 1943. Adolf Synaj was a Jewish man from the village of Stare Bystre in the Podhale region (the south of Poland). In August 1942 the Gestapo visited the Synaj farm. They killed his mother. Adolf, his wife and their children were picking mushrooms in a nearby forest and so by chance missed the Gestapo’s visit. They went into hiding. The boys died of dysentery that autumn; his wife was caught mid 1943 and never seen again. Adolf escaped to the village of Maruszyna, where my great-grandparents Franciszek & Aniela Ligas provided him with refuge. A month later a village collaborator denounced them. Three mounted Gestapo officers came; Adolf ran but was shot 20 meters from the house. My great-grandfather was taken for interrogation and eventual execution in Krakow. His name was published at number 14 on a public death-sentence list in Krakow on 18 December 1943; a copy of the document is attached to this post. My great-grandmother was visibly pregnant with my grandmother - the officer decided to spare her. Adolf had a brother Jozef Synaj who was rumored to have emigrated to Uruguay and a sister whose name is thought to be Linka, who lived for a time in Kłodzko, Silesia. I do not know anything else about his family. I am in the process of documenting this as carefully as I can for posterity and so I would like to get in contact with the Synaj family. I am a historian by training, but I feel an obligation to do this for my family, for the living, and for the dead. I’ve gone through the Polish state archives on this case; they have over 200 pages on an investigation into this - the picture is relatively complete. If you have any connection - to Stare Bystre, to the Synaj family, to Podhale Jewish genealogy, or to anyone who might know, please reach out to me.

@StellaParton I don't blame you. I'm 66 with hair about the same length as yours. I feel no need to go short because of my age.

I ain’t cutting my hair! At my age, I don’t care what anyone thinks. People say older women need to cut their hair.

Do you remember when you joined X? I do! #MyXAnniversary

@StellaParton @DrNeilStone 66, get my vaccines on time and am doing just fine.

@DrNeilStone I’ve had every Moderna vaccine, flu,RSV,pneumonia and shingles vaccines and I’m still going strong. I will be 77 in two weeks. This vaccine conspiracy is meant to thin the herd of the ones stupid enough to listen to a heroin addict who claims to be reformed.

Who is alive more than 2 years after the after the Covid jab? ✋

@vivaia_official I am trying to buy shoes online and the website is trying to force me into creating an account. I don't want to do that. I just want to pay for my shoes and get them shipped. I've bought shoes before without an account.

@AuschwitzMuseum I'm glad he survived and hope he had a great life after. I'd love to know how he did it. He had to be very strong mentally to cope with that.

@phillychef32 @chefjoseandres He is a naturalized American citizen.

@chefjoseandres This an American issue, stay in your lane! Focus on your food🙏🏼

Robert Mueller: Marine, Vietnam veteran, Bronze Star recipient, lifelong public servant, former FBI Director who led with discipline and integrity. Funny how real service to country never needs to shout. History tends to remember that part.

Thank a Democrat.

The war in the middle East is really affecting Syria now. We are having daily power cuts, disruption in goods crossing the border and this week food, water and gasoline is raised another 15 - 25%, on top of already inflated prices. We are really trying to not run appeals on every post, but sometimes things get so scarey we need to ask for help. Today is one of those times. Our cats are okay, and so are we. We just need your help and support. We still need to stockpile supplies, before more price rises hit us. Our monthly fundraisers are struggling. If you can, please, please donate.

@WCKitchen I love zucchini!

During the holy month of #Ramadan, teams at WCK kitchens in Gaza are focused on serving meals that support and sustain people who are fasting during the day. This week, we prepared meals with fresh zucchini, a food eaten often during Ramadan because it’s light and hydrating due to its high water content. #ChefsForGaza

This is Filya, and he was evacuated from under shelling with a broken leg and shrapnel wounds ❤️‍🩹 The injured animal was found by volunteers from the shelter “Tobias. Animals of Kherson” and urgently taken to a clinic in Odesa. Filya underwent several surgeries, a leg amputation, and a blood transfusion. Thankfully, he survived. Filya now urgently needs two more surgeries. After that, he will need rehabilitation, and only then will it be possible to return to fitting a prosthesis. We can’t abandon Filya after such a long and painful journey, so we ask for your help in covering the cost of his treatment. Every contribution is a chance at life for Filya 🙏 Please don’t stay indifferent: uanimals.org/en/zbir/fundra…

@Asset_Living I've got a check from Asset Living that I probably have no business having. I had to leave a message at 713-782-5800 on Tuesday and got no response. The phone isn't being answered today.

@DerronEShort My mother would have picked up her baseball bat or cast iron frying pan and led the charge to end him.

Some of you women have the worst families. A man tried to kill his fiancé. He beat and stabbed her, and she was in the hospital for a while. Yet a few women in her family were telling her she should get back with him. I have no words.

@Xenta777 Reminds me of what we did after a hurricane years ago. We got a knock on the door. It was a neighbor who said his grill was going and to being any food that was thawing. We all ended up eating well with what we had. Nothing was wasted.

Kyiv update People made 10 cauldrons of mulled wine and kept warm dancing with their neighbors Ukrainians are unbreakable Always remember this Stand with Ukraine ❤️🇺🇦❤️

@StellaParton I see it, Stella.

I’m already being shadow banned but just in case you see this!

Epstein files have been released but not before they kept back thousands that were “too damaging for the victims.” I think they will continue to protect the debauchery of the ones in charge like Trump, Musk,Gates and many many more!

@UAnimalsENG Thank you for having such compassion for the voiceless and helpless.

UAnimals evacuated 63 animals from the Donetsk region 🐶 Friends, take a look at these photos — every one of these animals deserves safety and care, not the horror and pain of war 💔 Each evacuation mission is dangerous and challenging, so we would be very grateful for your support in the comments 💛
