   #WalzMayNotBeJewishBut when a class full of Chinese teenagers calls you "big-nosed one" plus a Chinese idiom that appears to be roughly equivalent to "mensch" then you definitely get the nod.

     Apparently #WalzMayNotBeJewishBut hasn't landed outside Jewish social media.

     My previous thought regarding this topic is that he's got the same "methodically over-achieving cousin" vibe Zelenskyy has. You know that one cousin who's just annoyingly accomplished and good at everything, and you can't help being grudgingly impressed? That's Tim Walz.

     Geography too, eh? I'm grudgingly impressed.

     Lol, just realized that Walz is probably one of those white people who has picked up on the role of "the nod" in Black culture as well. He just seems like that kind of person.

     Bill repeated this.
