110.01/ Week one-hundred and ten, August 20-26, 2022, thread begins here.

Week 109 below.
110.02/ Why do they call it a "T-Shirt Gun" and not a "laundry shoot"?
110.03/ The way it's raining so hard right now gives me an urge to gather together 2 of every treife animal.
110.04/ Reupping how much I like the word "quashal".
110.05/ Did the Mets insult a bog witch at some point 2 weeks ago? Weird injuries just popping up like eldritch curses...
110.06/ Cowher era #Steelers fans know that 51 is James Farrior's number and he was, as Kozora himself notes, one of the best free-agents to come to the team. 51 carries a great legacy; hope it brings good mazal to Myles Jack & us.

110.07/ At first, I thought the baked-beans hash-browns were a prank, like the gefilte-fish hot dogs. But, evidently not. If they are served simultaneously, it could open a portal to She'ol, so be careful.

110.08a/ I learned so much from this video about the climate actions in the IRA (h.t. @What46HasDone). This is what Biden can deliver (b/c he was a senator as long as humanly possible who then served as president of the Senate for 8 years as VP)
110.08b/ Biden-Harris has had so many successes in just a 18 months it's mind-blowing. Anti-lynching, Infrastructure, climate change, etc. If the Red part of the horseshoe wasn't as determined as the GOP to destroy the Democrats, they'd be happy. But they are, so they aren't.
110.10/ Agreed.

A silver lining of Damon making cryptomoola commercials is I can now just disregard anything he says about finance, economics and/or ethics.
110.11/ Keep the good news coming.

110.12/ The #NY19 news is reassuring that maybe we can keep the House. Keep it coming!
110.13/ Why call it an arranged marriage when you can call it a "shadchan wedding"?
110.14/ Any frum Jew who is upset about the *concept* of loan cancellation in the week of parshat Re'eh & in a honest-to-goodness SHEMITTA YEAR needs to go back to cheider.

Shemitta isn't there so you can bully farmers; the debt zapping is a cornerstone of halakhic ethics.
110.15/ Excellent context for that map going around
110.17/ #ChochmatNashim for #Reeh thread, up to 5782. These are shiurim about parshat ha-shavua by Orthodox women scholars.

110.18/ This is such a great answer. Love to see the fire!
110.19/ I'm glad to see the White House go on an overt war footing. Punches are not being pulled:

And this is precisely the answer I'd hope they go with, to retain the House. Highlight the crazies!
110.20/ This is an incredible thread by the White House

And it's because they hired the great NJ author to run their comms

Thank her here:
110.22/ It's a busy time; my son will be going off to Israel on Monday and it's an emotional erev-Shabbos. Like dropping him off in college but on a different order of magnitude.

Please stay safe and #ShabbatShalom!

233.01/ Week two-hundred and thirty-three, December 28, 2024-January 3, 2025, thread begins here.

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.
