My friend, I am just a middle aged Classical Reform cishet dad from Ohio, but I wept in my car reading this. THIS is Judaism. And it’s what my grandparents and great grandparents would have said, I’m sure. You make me proud to be part of k’lal Yisroel. Bless you.

Maybe an unpopular opinion? But I hate when judges do that stuff. I think it’s demeaning to the litigants, undermines the stature of the courts, and generally show-offy and childish.

These sick “Christians”
Mississippi evangelical megachurch leader, Cam Cotrill, has been sentenced to 9 years in prison for possessing more than 83,000 images of children being sexually abused.
Cotrill’s pastor & congregation wrote letters to the judge, calling Cotrill a “man of integrity.”

well, you're assuming your conclusion aren't you? Cataracts develop naturally in the body. Arteries harden (and joints stiffen and myopia develops) naturally as part of the aging process.

Our pro bono team was able to get a legal name change for a young high-ish-profile trans girl in a nearby, very red county: we got publication waived (important b/c high-ish profile) and even got the hearing waived. SO happy for her and her family.

I recognize how very silly this is, but it made me feel kind of shitty to see my two “best work friends” show up together at a big event they knew I was going to be attending and didn’t ask me about (walking distance from the office, they both saw me during the day, etc).

that's still just semantics. Aging is a natural process of the human body, and defining it as a disease is nothing more than a convenient way to group together the effects of that natural process for treatment.
