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

Week 232 below. #HappyChanukah!
233.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with a favorite - The Martian (2015) - that combined two of my other favorites: Cast Away (2000) & Apollo 13 (1995). Yes, I'm surprised Tom Hanks wasn't in this one.

233.03/ @ppppp1245688 is correct, and I just realized that it's the modern-secular equivalent of a Yissachar-Zevulun arrangement!

Week 231 below. Yes, it's super late, but this app is sputtering.
232.02/ Shiva minyans during #Chanukah are surreal. That is all.
232.03/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight was actually on Nitel-nacht (after we learned Torah, like good little Litvaks). And what else? Yippe-kai-yay, Maccabee.

Week 229 below
230.02/ The Assad regime collapsing over Shabbas #Vayetze seems especially appropriate. I had long compared Lavan to Assad, the urbane facade hiding real cruelty and depravity. I celebrate the toppling of a murderous regime and the liberation of Saydnaya prison.
230.03/ Mets Twitter is having a party right now. This is fun. #LGM

229.02/ #MotzeiShabbatMovieNight continues with Argo (2012), the rare winner of a best picture Oscar that's also re-watchable.

Week 227 below.
228.02/ Fundamentally, a plurality want a minority to do all the work but get no reward while they do very little work & get all the reward. The only system that will get close to that - liberal Democracy - gives too much to people the plurality hates, so they vote for fantasies.
