Piers Morgan asked a guest “if there are 35000 members of Hamas and they’ve only killed 8000 so far, how do you propose they kill the rest?” If 35000 produced 8000 dead then 150,000 should do it right?

In the last year or so my daughter has regularly started sentences with the words “I love you Daddy but…”

Been watching all these New York indie films on Kanopy. A nice change from all the violence streaming. There was an older actor in one, didn't recognize him, loved his presence, his voice. Looked up credits. Israel Horowitz. Father of Ad-Rock. Shoulda been in more movies.

the other day at her school, a classmate of my daughter's mispronounced the word 'antisemitic', and when it was pointed out to them, they apologized to my daughter. 'Sorry Jewish classmate, we mispronounced the word for jew hatred'.

Someone was afraid it would be dangerous to show a film about Americans changing their views about Israel.

Full Body Massage is probably the name of a massage parlour somewhere but it’s also a Nicholas Roeg film I watched on Tubi. I didn’t hate it. I didn’t love it. I was amazed it was made, that Mimi Rogers cooperated so fully with his vision and how it made me want a massage

I don’t understand how someone can keep complaining about the violence suffered by their tribe and then cheer on the violence committed by their tribe.“They started it” is what a kid says to a parent breaking up a fight. Then you grow up. Peace is the only choice

I know this is not the best place to come for medical advice but I have moderate sleep apnea and I cannot fall asleep with a CPAP mask. Anyone have a solution that isn’t based on quackery ?

I took twitter off my phone but I can still sneak in on my laptop and I'm here to say I would really like some of you to join Threads, which right now is a friendly place but a bit too narrow, probably because of who I'm following but if you were there I'd follow you too.

At the CPAP store trying out different masks and the young lady slides over a mirror and asks if I want to see how it looks. Yeah that’s what I worry about when I’m trying to sleep with this crazy rubber contraption on my face. Far from improving sleep it’s preventing it.

Highly recommend the Broken Record podcast interview with Robbie Robertson, at his charming storytelling best.

My partner just came downstairs and I told her “The flies at the back window are easier to kill than the flies at the front window”.

Finally watched that “try that small town” video. In “okie from Muskogee” us city folk just took our trips on LCD. Now we riot and burn flags. I guess there’s no flag burning in the small town. Only a little cross burning.
