Drove past multiple family farm stands in southern New Jersey the other day. Why can’t I purchase home grown cannabis at these places?

“It’s not a war”
There is no war in Gaza. It is an attempt to erase the Palestinian people from existence. It is a genocide. Starvation. Massacring civilians as they queue for food. Bombing hospitals, homes, and refugee camps. The international community must stop enabling this genocide, and…
We live in a culture that does not socialize men to be caretakers and does not value caretaking in general. So guess where that burden falls?
If you’ve never had to take care of a parent/grandparent with Alzheimer’s or Dementia, please count your blessings That shit is NOT for the weak. To see the look in someone’s eyes that took you to school, taught you how to tie a tie, and taught you golf……
Let’s just call it what it is
Israel bombed a kindergarten filled with children. This is not war. This is terrorism. Zionism is terrorism.
I was in 8th grade when this episode of Cosby Show aired and everybody was talking about it in school the next day. A cultural phenomenon if ever there was one. RIP #MalcolmJamalWarner
The saddest part about Malcolm-Jamal Warner’s passing is that there’s a whole generation that will never see his early acting brilliance on the Cosby Show because of what that terrible man did. They won’t be able to watch reruns or watch it on streaming to truly appreciate him 🥺
Israel needs to be stopped. They have squeezed the remaining population into 12% of Gaza. They are murdering starving people queuing for food with white flags. They are sending in armoured demolition companies to destroy every single building in Gaza. They have murdered…
Trump is a pedophile whose mean-spirited, immoral immigration policies have apparently gutted the service industry in Miami/Miami Beach. streets, hotels, restaurants have never appeared emptier. #MAGA #TrumpIsUnfitForOffice #TrumpPedoFiles
Hey @Pontifex Gee… if only you were in a position to do something about it🧐
Tragic news continues to arrive in these days from the Middle East, especially from Gaza. I express my profound sadness regarding last Thursday’s attack by the Israeli army on the Catholic Parish of the Holy Family in Gaza City, which as you know killed three Christians and…

The manager of a shoe store on Lincoln Rd said 40% fewer people are entering his shop compared to July last year. I overheard him talking to my barista, from Brazil, who said Canadian tourism has dried up. But MAGA gonna MAGA I guess? #BadForBusiness

A week after a six-year-old pedestrian was struck by a vehicle and KILLED, Jim McGreevy wants *more* traffic on the streets in Jersey City. Strikes me as retrograde. And also dangerous.
Ocean Avenue and MLK should remain two-way streets. Having worked at 398 MLK for years and having family and friends from the neighborhood, converting these streets to one-way would create serious challenges for our seniors and schoolchildren. Many older residents rely on nearby…
