I say this as a Jewish person and a diehard Rams fan: I was horrified by the initial comments & glad to see this level of apology. Given everything I’ve see & heard about him, I think it’s overwhelmingly likely he’s telling the truth & means this. And the team needs to have a long talk with him.

I was teaching my students about pikuach nefesh a few weeks ago, but accidentally said pirsumei nisah. At the moment it was a funny slip of the tongue. Now the two are sadly connected.

Already seen quite a few with that. And claiming this is an Israeli false flag attack. We can’t even mourn our people without having motives interrogated.

It’s low on the list of terrible things about this court, but her constant presence in the minority means we have been denied so many great decisions written by her.

I teach 7th grade at my synagogue’s religious school. I got an email from a former student who is a sophomore in college, asking if I’d write her a recommendation for a trip to Germany through Hillel. She said she wanted me to write it because my class is the reason she’s interested. Best day ever.

My favorite part about the middle stage is that it lasts for approximately 7 minutes before SPRINTING to the latter.

As an attorney, I commend you on answering precisely the question asked and nothing further. Ideal deposition behavior. Never volunteer extraneous information.

You know how people sometimes fail the MPRE, not because the test is hard, but because it asks for the minimum ethical standard and they’re more ethical than that? It’s that, just in reverse.

I don’t even understand why he would be vague about it. He’s in grad school for the thing. He presumably has at least a vague interest in it. Just talk about it! Be excited! Giant red flag here.

My mom had surgery a few years ago, getting part of a lung removed. I was nervously waiting & a friend said “they just said there’s a call from the OR for Ms. Tucker’s family.” I almost broke my leg rushing to the counter for a call of “everything went great!” Can I get some sort of indicator light?

If you ever find yourself heading down to Norfolk, I highly recommend checking out the Wisconsin. Guided tours are very worth it, too!
