  What the hell is a non-bowler? I see it being used by people who are clearly very racist so I know it’s some kind of dog whistle but I don’t get it. I guess I’m not their dog, and that’s a good thing.

  Anybody else find it ironic that the star of The Handmaids Tale belongs to a cult in real life?

  I’ve been doing some research and looking into a PhD in Jewish studies or Holocaust/genocide studies. Obviously given my disability, my memory issues, this would be a real struggle for me. I would have to take it very slowly. It might take me many years to achieve. I would need to take one course or two at a time. I would have to work four times as hard as a nondisabled person. I might never even be able to get it done. But I’m looking into it.

  On Holocaust Remembrance Day a terrorist murdered people coming out of Shabbat services in a synagogue in Jerusalem. I am reminded that the hate that led to the Holocaust has not gone away. It is rising in the world once again. I have lost all optimism, despite trying to hold onto it. I believe there will never be safety for us in this world. But we must hold onto our joy in life, and our communities must stay brave and hold together. I love the Jewish people. Am Yisrael chai.

  Just found this picture of me on my Uncle Bill’s ranch circa 1970. He was a Shoshone Indian who taught me what little I know of traditional practices. He raised buffalo, one of the primary foods of the NW band of Shoshone, who were hunters and trappers. This was near Idaho Falls.

  To the entire Jewish people, Orthodox, Conservative, Reform, secular, and every other Jew: I love you.
