98.01/ Week ninety-eight, May 28-June 3, 2022, thread begins here. #YomYerushalayim Sameach!

Week 97 thread below.
98.02/ Valuable thread about the gun industry and I learned from him an excellent term I will now incorporate into my social theory: Agnotology = "the cultural production of ignorance."
98.03/ Wow: "The science is abundantly clear: More guns do not stop crime. Guns kill more children each year than auto accidents. More children die by gunfire in a year than on-duty police officers and active military members." (Scientific American)

98.04/ Those looking for graduation gifts, and/or are interested in Mexican history, might I recommend this beautiful book that my mother @CypessSM contributed to (and part of whose life's work was dedicated to this topic).

98.05/ This was classy by the 'Canes. It was a hard fought series and this is a nice balance to the trash-talking during the games. Shake hands, congratulate, and move on.
98.06/ This is terrible news. D*pp executed the RVO in DARVO; abusers have another win and a high profile precedent for harassing and silencing their victims. The repercussions can be catastrophic if we don't push back hard.
98.07/ Paging Jeremiah & Cassandra.

Yet another example where the warning is not only ignored, but when the catastrophe occurs, it's treated as a surprise. Re: the formula shortage.

98.16/ Have a wonderful Shabbas & Shavuot. BE"H one of the more manageable 3-day-yuntifs. Stay safe, #GoodYuntif #ChagSameach and #ShabbatShalom

174.02/ The newest season of #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight began tonight with "Flash Gordon." It's a camp classic and stars Topol a'h, the wonderful Israeli actor. One of the extras on my disk has Alex Ross saying it's his favorite film!

173.02/ After a number of discussions with many in the world Jewish community I think most of us are at the 5th stage of grief with our former friends: acceptance. We oscillate, sure. Some are still denying, a number of the "pick-me"s are still bargaining.

Week 170 below.
171.02/ I highly recommend this article by @havivrettiggur. It's a very astute analysis of the situation in Israel, the fallacy of the anti-Israel paradigm & why the Israeli Left collapsed after 2000 & where they are now. timesofisrael.com/hamas-does-not…
171.03/ One thing I've read, from Rettig-Gur & many others, is that Hamas had a real strategy. It's the Algeria playbook: to make life in Israel so intolerable that the "colonialist tourists" would pick up and go back to where they came from. That's why I call it a paradigm error

Week 169 below.
170.02/ The people who don't condemn Hamas are - by definition - incapable of making this world a "less needlessly cruel place." They are in fact increasing cruelty. Eagerly, it seems.
170.03/ These are powerful letters by the leaders of the Hebrew University reprimanding Harvard & Stanford for their moral cowardice in the face of the attempted genocide (HU's words) by Hamas.
