The marine layer is keeping San Francisco much cooler today. Official high temperature so far is just 71. That follows a 91-degree Saturday and 86-degree Sunday! Look how dense this fog is at Lake Merced! What's it like where you live? Link to webcam: www.ipcamlive.com/688ac8df9037f

In college, a friend said to me, "If there's one movie that best represents you as a person, it's THAT THING YOU DO." And meant it as a compliment. Celebrate the 30th anniversary of Tom Hanks's directorial debut by streaming it for free on Pluto TV: pluto.tv/us/movies/61...

The "all anti-Zionism is always and forever antisemitism" people and the "all antisemitism becomes fine if we just say it's anti-Zionism, even if we're ranting about the Talmud" people reinforce one another, even if both sides utterly fail to see it.

Significant numbers of leftists think Mayor Mamdani has betrayed the left by putting out an anti-antisemitism plan at all, and groups that claim to fight antisemitism like the ADL are giving Mamdani zero credit because he has not suddenly endorsed Zionism, and I am caught between and I am tired.

The entire CA-11 race makes me feel like I’m taking crazy pills. there is literally not a single issue where Connie Chan is to the left of Scott Wiener. the only real difference is that Connie Chan is an incompetent car-loving NIMBY. it’s insane that so many progressives are supporting her

Seeing how many people have turned on AOC for *talking* to misguided people concerned about health is an instant reminder of how Clinton, Warren, Harris, and every other woman in politics gets pulled down. You have to appeal to everyone but be pure and don’t talk to opposition but also win the votes

If younger generations are paying such close attention, and decide to hate Jews after a group of mostly non-Jews take a disgusting vote, well, they can fuck themselves sideways. Anyone looking to embrace antisemitism will always find an excuse.

I have a great deal of contempt for AIPAC but they do not have the power to "steal" an election. Stuffing ballot boxes, changing vote totals, that's election stealing. Convincing people to vote for a candidate via ads and outreach is just an election. The distinction matters

A lot of people are determined to read Zionism as something innate to Judaism going back to the ancient world, as opposed to a modern nationalism that emerged out of the same conditions that produced other 19th century nationalisms. Unfortunately, both some Zionists and some anti-Zionists do this.

I haven’t seen the film yet, but I agree with this assessment. Expertise with source material doesn’t make for ownership of its meaning or interpretation across mediums. Also, there’s obviously space for many stories to emerge from a single epic; they can be incomplete without being contemptible.
