AP reports that the Bidens have added the first menorah to the White House collection. Created by the White House carpentry shop, it is the first Jewish artifact to be included in the White House archives.

Good morning and Happy Sunday to everyone here in Mastodon! My name is Majid Padellan, but most folks know me as Brooklyn Dad Defiant from the bird site.

This is my #introduction: I like democracy, voting rights, equal rights, education, the environment. Also like old (and new) TV shows, love movies, comedy, big comic book nerd, pizza and Buffalo wings will be my last meal.

Also like not being swarmed by thousands of nasty trump bots, so this space feels nice. Thanks for the warm welcome!

It’s okay if you’re atheist.
I love atheists! You can still follow me, atheists.
It won’t suddenly make you religious or anything. 😂
