141.02/ I believe in being as religiously inclusive as possible, so I very much appreciate this thread.
141.03/ OMG, things are getting a bit hectic and tense in Israel right now.

Histadrut calling for a general strike is a logical move

But protesters breaking through security barriers of the PM's residence is scary

140.02/ This is pretty crazy. My school spirit is rising ;)
140.03/ All the cowardly bluster aside, a *botched* indictment would embolden TFG's supporters. Which is why, in my estimation, it has taken so long to bring one. It needs to be airtight and damning.

The Women of the Wall showing up in tallis and tefillin is (1) the 1980’s called, they want their women’s liberation movement back. (2) women in ritual objects intended solely for men is either (1) displaying a deep sense of inadequacy as a woman or (2) indulging in a profane,
at best, fetish. The masculinization of women has hurt women, hurt men, and likely hurt children the most.
As much as the modern mind finds it difficult to comprehend, there are forces that zero in on the tiny bits of culture and morality today that are still pure and holy. The aspects of culture and law that are miraculously safe from the pervasive and thorough defilement of the

126.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with Superman (1978) the trend-setter for all modern superhero movies. Also IMO has the best theme music and I *love* movie/TV themes. Brilliant art direction, amazing cast.

126.03/ Reference for NFL euphemisms: (1) "[player showing some] discomfort" = he's injured and in pain, (2) "[player is] shaken up" = he's so injured that he can't get up, (3) "[player is] down" = an injury that would prompt a normal person to call 911.

Hey, Twitter is still here. Nice to know.
122.03/ The first #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight of 5783 is the classic grim crime thriller "Batman"... actually, sorry, it's the camp classic "Batman (1966)". Why? Because it's referenced so often by later comedies & it's part of their education, of course.

121.02/ Good metaphor.

However, to me, it feels like 2012 during Hurricane Sandy, waiting for the power to go out.

121.03/ This is what I mean. There's a completely preventable, maliciously negligent, technology collapse coming soon.

1/ #ChochmatNashim for #Bereishit 5783. Divrei Torah from Orthodox women scholars.

I will try to get back to a normal schedule soon. Hey, it's Cheshvan (kinda).
119.03/ Remembering the Before Times, Nov 2019, when my wife and were on a business trip together to Vienna and, as is our wont, we went to an art museum where, unbeknownst to me, I was able to see one of my favorite paintings ever.
