I almost got caught up in it today – virtue signalling.  like I’m doing more for the hostages that you are.  I’m more against the government than you are.  I’m more virtuous than you are.  

Almost.

Okay – no jewellery.  that makes sense.  no dressing up. (who would feel like getting all gussied up when there are starving people next door. 

But I stopped learning Arabic after Oct 7 – just couldn’t hear the language, couldn’t even think about a celebratory dinner (and I don’t mean the Gazans who have been looking well-fed for a while now). 

I don’t even mean demonstrating.  Unless there is real danger involved and not just joining up with old friends.

So I’m still sick, Ezi just had a cancerous growth removed from his head, and I don’t have anything left – so when some left wing politician called me, I couldn’t support him.  

It doesn’t make me feel good.
