We have been watching season two of The Pitt, and I've had a thought. Given that the season is set entirely on July 4, 2026, technically it's science fiction, isn't it? π #ThePitt
Question: How do we know that Purim is next week?
Answer in photo from Star Market today. #Jewish
See the snow and hear the wind. #Blizzard2026
When a blizzard approaches, you need four things: bread, eggs, milk, and an Oxford comma. #Blizzard2026
As I watch "Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History," and I listen to Henry Louis Gates, Jr. narrating, when he says, "Arguably, Hollywood's most powerful team at the time were the Warner Brothers," my mind finishes the sentence automatically with, "And the Warner sister, Dot."
That's it! Wonder Man reminds me of Astro City!
Um.
It's been 45 years but we're about to get a new episode of The Muppet Show. Not Muppets Tonight, not The Muppets. The Muppet Show.
Watching the first episode of "Black and Jewish America: An Interwoven History." Fascinating.

@gnomerino.bsky.social: "Prognosticating Marmots is our new band name." #GroundhogDay
There is something oddly appropriate about today being both Groundhog Day and Tu B'Shevat this year.
Just a reminder to everyone to wake up early tomorrow for Groundhog Day.
Ah, yes, being Northed.
Alas.
Today is the 40th anniversary of the Challenger tragedy, the day NASA lost seven astronauts: Francis R. (Dick) Scobee, Michael J. Smith, Judith A. Resnik, Ronald E. McNair, Ellison S. Onizuka, Gregory B. Jarvis, and Christa McAuliffe. Their sacrifice is memorialized at Arlington National Cemetery.
My wife informs me that apparently, on Sunday February 8, we're going to have to get chicken wings.
(Actually, what she said was something something Super Bowl something something Patriots something.)
A little after 4 pm. Almost four inches of snow in Brookline and it's still falling rapidly.

Appreciated the Jewish content on The Pitt tonight. #ThePitt
βThe right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated ..."
I always think of the Doctor Who villain Davros, who created the Daleks.
Today is Squirrel Appreciation Day!
One of my kids actually asked me to sing some Gilbert & Sullivan tonight and I sang βI Stole the Princeβ from Gondoliers like I did for them when they were little.
A person on Threads found it. Berenstain Bears.
One of my teen kids is asking if anyone might remember a TV show she watched years ago. It was one episode in which a girl learns how to play tiddlywinks from her grandmother and then tells her parents she knows how to play tiddlywinks. It was a cartoon show. Does this ring a bell for anyone?
I had no idea that she was a member of our class! Looking forward now even more to reading the book.
Sympathies.
