Cranky old rabbi. LA Clippers! NBA! I follow back - no porn, no bots, no MAGAts.
#Clippers Why Kobe Brown instead of Brook Lopez? I don't get it.

We need Medicare for all now.
Everyone is being fleeced by health insurers & yet the political debate has been narrowed to just Dems demanding more subsidies for their insurance donors & the GOP trying to throw everyone off whatever meager coverage anyone still has.

It’s a total disgrace & shows how deep the corruption runs.

The #Clippers are awful and not at all fun to watch. Gonna be a long season, and the worse they are, the better the pick OKC gets.

Man, that Bradley Beal signing by the #Clippers is working out really well.

#LAClippers seem to have forgotten there's something called PnR.

Blown defensive coverage, lazy closeouts, missed layups, live turnovers leading to buckets - it's actually painful to watch #LAClippers. I need a drink.

I'm sorry I washed my hair this morning. I couldn't use it as an excuse to not watch the #Clippers

Opening night and #NBA and #NBC have already screwed the pooch, IMO. OKC-HOU just ended, and LAL-GSW is already halfway through 2nd Q. TNT, ESPN - they have secondary channels for those who want to catch a second game. NBC - nope. Great fan experience, Adam Silver, just great.

Sure, Ballmer is the tenth wealthiest person on Earth, but not filing a lawsuit against Aspiration after getting burned for $60 million seems pretty strange.

Adam Silver expects a long investigation, "There’s a fair amount of evidence for us to look at. The stakes are very high here."

Whether it’s Fox News’s Brian Kilmeade advocating killing homeless people by “involuntary lethal injection” or MSNBC’s Matthew Dowd bringing up things that Charlie Kirk said, both networks have crossed the boundaries of decency.

Question: Why did US put big tariffs on India despite major national interest in cultivating a strategic counterweight to China and trying to isolate Russia?

Answer: Because the US president lied that he fixed India-Pakistan and India wouldn’t go along with the lie.

(Seriously, that’s the answer)

I love that if you're progressive, you need to answer "why did you say ____ 5 years ago?!" for the rest of your life.

However, if you are a literal right-wing ghoul and you say "maybe we shouldn't help with a genocide TODAY" one time, you get celebrated in the news for a week.

Many on the left are lauding Marjorie Taylor Greene for (rightly) saying Gaza is a genocide & calling for limiting of aid to Israel.

But some of us aren't goldfish & actually *remember* how MTG helped lay the groundwork for the genocide & the crackdown on pro-Palestine voices.

The saga of the NYT's anti-Mamdani story taken from notorious white supremacist Jordan Lasker (they call him an "academic") gets even more amazing: Lasker's only impactful paper, which claimed white people are smarter, is infamous: it misused data so badly it got his tenured co-author fired. 2/
