So nice waking up to a handwritten letter from Japan, with a stamp and all.

"This passport holder acts and believes in peace between an independent Palestinian state and the State of Israel" and is currently listening to the Supremes.

Worst casting decisions ever. I'll start: Clark Gable as Charles Stewart Parnell

Just got here. The settlers stole the olives. It's devastating.

Arriving in Nablus to help our Palestinian friends harvest their olive trees. The harvest season is a busy one.

Yesterday I ushered at a film festival in Tel Aviv dedicated to Palestinian cinema. At the post-screening panel, Gramsci the dog climbed on the stage to ask the filmmakers for a bellyrub. 💕

Today we harvested many olive trees in Ramallah. Wothout Israeli and international volunteers, the Palestinian farmers are prohibited from harvesting their own orchards. This is their livelihood, and we stand in solidarity with them.

In bed with an ear infection, worrying I won't be able to hear my students tomorrow, and looked after by "ears visible-from-space" Bono.

Yesterday, I joined a human rights group in Ramallah, the Occupied West Bank, to help Palestinian farmers harvest their olive trees. Then settlers arrived with guns, backed by the IDF, threatened us, and forced us out of the orchard. Violence is surging in the West Bank.

Planted olive trees today in Betlehem, the Occupied West Bank, to support the Palestinian farmers and in solidarity with the communities who suffer constant attacks by settlers and the IDF.

This morning in Nablus, the Occupied West Bank, we stood in solidarity with Palestinian farmers, planting olive trees—a symbol of resilience and deep-rooted connection to the land. Suffering violence by criminal settlers, their endurance is a reminder of the urgent need for justice and solidarity.

My book, Guilt and Finnegans Wake, is officially out today with Florida Press. We're having an online launch with @joycesociety.bsky.social on March 4, at 12 pm EST. I wrote a poem to entice you to attend. Maybe you already read it on Facebook. Here it is now:

Planting trees is hard. But we planted about 50 trees today, out of the 1000 that we plan to plant in this campaign. I planted 4. And I met a nice donkey that wouldn't take a selfie with me.

I joined Rabbis for Human Rights in the Occupied West Bank to help the Palestinian communities plant olive trees. Criminal Jewish settlers often uproot trees to hurt the Palestinian fatmers' livelihood. So we come to show solidarity and help with whatever we can.
