There were many really great posts this week, so I decided to nominate them all for Post of the Week.
Nina Mishkin, who is a very talented writer, has been sick and reblogged a beautiful old post about a Jewish family separated by history and immigration. If you aren’t reading Nina Mishkin yet, you absolutely should, she rocks.
J. Otto Pohl explains that “most of the votes in the UN in favor of the Russian position appear to come from states more motivated by anti-Americanism than by close relations with the Russian Federation.” He is another blogger definitely worth following.
Marty Klein hits it out of the ballpark (I hope I’m using the expression correctly and it isn’t some sort of an insult) with a talented post on Hobby Lobby: “You don’t see companies refusing to provide legally-required handicap parking or accessible bathrooms because of religious beliefs. You don’t see companies refusing to obey food safety regulations in company cafeterias or worker safety regulations on factory floors because of religious beliefs. No, “religious beliefs” are always about sex.”
Leah Jane wrote a brilliant post on why efforts to create autism awareness need to stop now.
Mind Hacks ridicules the silly “how genes are to blame for every negative characteristic you’ve ever had” fad.
Hattie is saying exactly what I’ve been wanting to say about our favorite magazine.
And Leah Jane delivers a crucial message about Ellen DeGeneres’s pro-seal campaign.
A brilliant post in Russian about an adult approach to voicing one’s opinions.
J. Otto Pohl makes a crucial point about the core of silence inside the today’s Leftist movements.
What is the best way for the Democrats to fire up their base? An important discussion.
The Phytophactor explains that science isn’t about fairness, it’s about facts. A timely and important reminder.
Marty Klein debunks the myth of porn’s perfect bodies.
A famous article by a Russian dissident (in English) addressed to the people of the Crimea. Do read it, this guy is totally rad.
Feel free to link to other brilliant posts you have either written or read.
