Students for Justice in Palestine, a notorious anti-Israel student organization, is calling for “death to all collaborators,” mimicking nearly word for word Hamas’ justification for carrying out a series of grotesque public executions of Palestinians accused of being disloyal to the terror group after President Trump’s peace deal. In an Instagram post Oct. 12, Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) posted an image mourning the death of Saleh al-Jafarawi, a well-known influencer in Gaza who openly celebrated the Oct. 7 attack. Al-Jafarawi was killed Sunday during intense fighting between Hamas and the Doghmush clan, a Palestinian opposition group. National Students for Justice…

As Halloween draws ever closer, it’s time for what has become a bit of a Thoughts on Thinking blog tradition to post a horror/fear-associated piece. My first post in this realm of thought covered 5 Reasons We Enjoy Being Scared. In this piece, we’ll discover the “what” that makes us scared. To start, anything can be scary—and I mean anything. It just needs context. For example, clowns are not supposed to be scary. They are funny—singing, dancing, joke-telling jesters. But, if we change the context of the clown and their purpose, then it’s reasonable to understand why they’re scary. My…

The family of a teenage Israeli soldier who spent more than two years thinking he may have survived the horrors of Oct. 7, 2023, only found out that he had died when his remains were returned this week. Tamir Nimrodi’s family had their worst fears confirmed Tuesday when the 18-year-old was one of three dead Israelis returned by Hamas — along with other remains that turned out not to be a hostage. “This is the moment that we so feared, the moment I refused to believe would come,” Tamir’s father, Alon Nimrodi, told Israel’s Channel 12 in an emotional interview.…

Jason Kelce is speaking out after “fake quotes” regarding Bad Bunny’s upcoming Super Bowl halftime show were wrongly attributed to him. In a message posted Tuesday on X, the retired Eagles center made it clear that “unless you hear something directly from me,” consider what’s being conveyed elsewhere false, as the apparent viral remarks — “If Bad Bunny is a bad fit for the Super Bowl, then maybe the people making these comments are a bad fit for America’s future” — were incorrectly pegged to Kelce, 37. “I normally don’t comment on things like this, but I feel I need…

Andy Cohen was not impressed with Lukas Gage‘s unpopular Bravo opinion. Gage, along with Real Housewives of Salt Lake City star Whitney Rose, stopped by the Bravo Clubhouse for Tuesday night’s (Oct. 14) episode of Watch What Happens Live, where the actor shockingly begged Cohen to bring Jen Shah back to the network once she completes her prison sentence next year. “My most unpopular opinion is … we need to let Jen Shah back,” Gage said. “I mean, if it’s OK for the federal government, it should be OK for Bravo. We need to bring Jen back. “I’m sorry, I…

The neighbors know her name. Tamra Judge revealed that one of Wendy Osefo’s neighbors sent the “Real Housewives of Orange County” star a DM about the professor’s claims that her home was burglarized. “Her neighbor slid into my DM,” Judge shared on her and Teddi Mellencamp’s “Two Ts In A Pod” podcast Tuesday. “[She said] basically, they all got notices on their front door or in their mailbox that there had been a burglary at Wendy and Eddie [Osefo]’s house. And instantly, the whole entire neighborhood was thinking, ‘This is insurance fraud,’” the reality star claimed. Tamra Judge revealed that…

“Home Alone” actor Daniel Stern was hospitalized after suffering a medical emergency earlier this month. The Ventura County Fire Department told TMZ that on Oct. 7, they responded to a residence in Somis, California where an individual had to be assessed by firefighters and transported to a nearby hospital.

Israel announced Wednesday that a body returned by Hamas is not one of the deceased hostages — threatening historic efforts to reach peace. The Jewish State had already accused the terrorist group of not living up to its requirements by only releasing four of the 28 dead hostages on Monday, with only another four handed over on Tuesday. Vehicles transporting the bodies of four hostages handed over following a ceasefire and prisoner exchange deal between Israel and Palestinian factions in Gaza arrive at the National Center for Forensic Medicine in Tel Aviv on Oct. 15, 2025.

Jaxson Dart smiled and chuckled in his response, which made everyone else laugh. “Definitely answer this question a lot,’’ Dart said. Probably too much. A pattern has already developed: Dart plays and afterward gets asked about protecting his body from physical harm.
