I can’t wait to check it out. I’ve recently began to revisit my teenage love of comics & comic book collecting thanks in part to my journey into Judaism & working on a project involving Kitty Pryde. And I think comics in general are still a relatively unappreciated medium deserving more attention.

This year has been beaten me up physically & financially & I’m not doing well on either front. But I gave $50 I don’t really have to give because I love local businesses & want to support them & comics have meant so much to me in my life. So any random person seeing this, please give if you can. 🙏

Regardless of where you stand on people who are critical of the war in Gaza and care about the suffering of the Palestinians trapped there, this is what real, straight-up antisemitism looks like. This shit is the kind of hate-filled garbage that’ll eventually evolve into the Shoah 2.0 if we let it.

40 years ago we’d have congressional hearings falsely accusing metal bands of putting backwards messages in their songs that told kids to kill themselves & now we have a planet-killing chatbot that’s all like “bet you won’t commit suicide chickenshit bitch” & the government is like here’s $5 billion

Got some comics sent out for grading during @rosecitycc.bsky.social and just got them back today— one for @brianmbendis.bsky.social’s signature on an epic issue, one for the beautiful cover by @margueritesauvage.bsky.social, and one because it’s an iconic issue and looked pretty good condition. 🤗

Portland City Council will consider an amendment next week to redirect $4.3 million from the city program that sweeps homeless encampments. If passed, the budget adjustment will instead invest $2 million in rent and food assistance, and support for immigrants and refugees.

It definitely concerns me more how openly prevalent antisemitism is becoming in our country, & esp. our government, than a mayoral candidate who’s critical of the Israeli government’s treatment of Palestinians but spends Erev Yom Kippur at shul & is committed to making all NYC residents feel safe.
I’m heartbroken that my rabbinic colleagues are focused on Mamdani, while Jew-hatred that consumed the lives of synagogue goers has become official GOP — and government — policy.
Thanks to @theradr.bsky.social for encouraging me to submit this to The Forward.

Why are we so focused on Mamdani — not Nazi-inspired ideas proliferating on the right?
Jews are concerned about antisemitism amid Zohran Mamdani's mayoral run. They're concentrating on the wrong side of the political spectrum.

If our governor and other elected officials can’t protect us, we need to start protecting ourselves from this kind of terrorism. Communities need to be there for each other and keep one another safe.

The second annual “No Kings” protests once again brings to mind the books of Samuel and Kings in the Tanakh, particularly the story of Saul, the first king of Israel.

Most people are just one medical emergency away from bankruptcy. That's not a secure economy. Everyone is living on the edge, underpaid by their bosses and overpaying their creditors.

Just think about how bad these people must be if they’re threatening to shoot first responders trying to do their job and provide medical attention to the injured. And if that’s how they treat EMS workers, how badly do you think they treat protesters and immigrants?
