Flying over Full Moon on my Vibrating Broom, I deliver my spooky s3x-positive Ode to Halloween to spark the scene as well as our newest Bonoboville road, “Poet Avenue"... Warning: Explicit Conversations About Politics, Culture, & S3xuality!   So, it’s been 3 weeks since “Israel’s 9/11” when Hamas horrifically attacked Israel, & then Israel horrifically attacked Gaza, which it is still attacking & attacking… in a frenzy of atrocity after atrocity. On this FDR, I join the voices of fellow anti-Zionist Jews saying, “No! Not in our name! Ceasefire now.” But how? Friends of Bonobos (with Lola ya Bonobo) invited me on a backstage tour of the San Diego Zoo bonobos, so Max & I held a “Peace Summit” with the quintessential peacemakers: the bonobos.
