In Buddhism we understand that every action comes with a consequence. Due to my decision to stand up for my Jewish friends I am losing a few people from my life. Today I parted company with Tony Pontius who has run my record label BGP for a number of years. I wanted to release 'We Will Dance Again' but he was unequivocal and said 'I want nothing to do with this song' and I responded 'ok, we are done'.
When someone is gutless it really does not hurt to say goodbye. My faith in humanity will not diminish and the truth will always win.
I will release it!
I would have expected the streets of European capitals and campuses around the world to burst with joy for the end of what they claimed is “Genocide”.
Might it be that their goal was never to secure Palestinian lives, but to destroy Israel?
✨ Grateful and honored to receive the Dwek Fellowship Award! ✨
This recognition means so much to me. I want to thank my amazing PI Prof. @shouval for her guidance and belief in me, and my incredible lab mates. You make this journey so much better
Excited for what’s ahead!🥼
@Corriere sempre pronto a segnalare quando Israele (contro) attacca Hezbollah in Libano ma si dimentica di dare enfasi alle notizie di missili dal Libano che cadono a centinaia sul nord di Israele #falsainformazione#disinformation#fakenews

Umberto Eco, who owned 50,000 books, had this to say about home libraries:
"It is foolish to think that you have to read all the books you buy, as it is foolish to criticize those who buy more books than they will ever be able to read. It would be like saying that you should use all the cutlery or glasses or screwdrivers or drill bits you bought before buying new ones.
"There are things in life that we need to always have plenty of supplies, even if we will only use a small portion.
"If, for example, we consider books as medicine, we understand that it is good to have many at home rather than a few: when you want to feel better, then you go to the 'medicine closet' and choose a book. Not a random one, but the right book for that moment. That's why you should always have a nutrition choice!
"Those who buy only one book, read only that one and then get rid of it. They simply apply the consumer mentality to books, that is, they consider them a consumer product, a good. Those who love books know that a book is anything but a commodity."
