Note: If you were hoping for a J Street update, you’re out of luck! I wrote this post ahead of time, because I knew I would neither have access to a computer, nor want to want to try to be two places at once (at the conference and in the ether) in the course of [...]

Combating Islamophobia & responding to Rep. Pete King – some ideas.
UPDATE, March 4, 2011 : I wrote a much more detailed list of ideas, including sample scripts and letters today: How to support Muslims. It’s a better place to start on this, I assure you! I’ve called US Rep. Pete King’s (R-NY) office a couple of times in the past two weeks to try to [...]

Open Thread…?
I’m about to take off for a couple of hours, and don’t know if TNC will open his OTAN or not today. (It’s already a few minutes past-N, and so far, no OT). So, just in case – here’s a thread if folks need it! Rules are here & if you get stuck in moderation, [...]

I’ve been everywhere… dude.
Note: Sony Music are douchebags and I can’t find a version of this song that will play on my site. But dude! Click through! Totally worth it. ***** Ok, I haven’t been everywhere. But I’ve been a lotta places! I’ve been to: Israel, Egypt, Italy, Turkey, Switzerland, Belgium (24 hours – that counts, right?), England, [...]

OTA (11:00 in my time zone).
…and we’re back. Open Thread away! And even if you don’t regularly comment at Ta-Nehisi’s blog — which you totes should — please feel free to join in! The rules (here) boil down to: 1) Don’t do stuff you wouldn’t do at TNC’s place, and 2) be a person (which The Raven pointed out is [...]

Alterna-Open Thread again.
Update: Needless to say, this is open to everyone, not just regular TNC commenters – come one, come all! Ta-Nehisi has come to the not at all unreasonable conclusion that when he’s off-line, it’s best to not leave Open Threads lying about unattended. So, if I understand correctly: None today, none tomorrow. I, however, am [...]

The Internet (capitalized, as if it were a Deity).
Here’s the thing. I loves me some Internet. I really, really do. All of our technological bells and whistles are, bottom line, tools, and tools are only as good or as bad as the people using them, and with judicious use, the Internet is one hell of a tool. I mean honestly! What other tool [...]
