142.01/ Week one-hundred and forty-two, April 1-7, 2023 thread begins here.

Week 141 below.
142.02/ The Sunday after Shabbat HaChodesh is when you go Pesach shopping, the Sunday after HaGadol is when you turn your kitchen over. That's why those haftarot are on the calendar. Them's the rules.
142.03/ @pptsapper is an excellent read, especially when the neo-Confederates start to get puffy and arrogrant.
142.04/ Gevalt. This is what a N*zi usually looks like: speaking in measured tones about their own horrific hatreds.

TW: for vile bigotry
142.05/ Good description of the magical thinking mentality of motivated reasoning that crams correlation with causality, especially when the causes are clearly and openly defined.
142.06/ No sound in the original.

This seems like best answer for why that [redacted] happened
142.07/ This free Chrome add-on works so far to distinguish between verified users & 8 Dollar posers
chrome.google.com/webstore/detai…

and I've heard good things about this too, but haven't used it yet (I'm worried about overburdening my browser)

142.08/ TIL via Mets radio/@HowieRose broadcast the haunted CIN hotel that MLB players often stay in and I think it's ironically cruel that the MOST superstitious athletes are subjected to this. See:

142.09/ With Finland joining NATO and TFG getting arraigned today, it's a tough day for the GOP. And all in Confederate Heritage (aka "Traitors Reveal Themselves") Month.

It's artistic in it's ironic symmetry.
142.11/ Yeah, we got smoked yesterday, but we'll always have the Ghost Fork game to give us good memories. #GhostFork #LGM
142.12/ Of all of them, DeGrom hurts the most. But I also don't miss the weekly injury watch. It's stressful enough being a Met fan.
142.13/ Mazal tov to all who celebrate!
142.14/ For almost everybody: Don't forget to make an Eruv Tavshilin today!

For Israelis: don't forget to have a nice relaxing chol hamoed tiyul on Friday! #Passover

142.15/ This is pretty cool. Also: Hatikvah sung by American servicemen in 1944? Wow.
142.17/ Yesterday was actually a good day. This was awesome news.
142.18/ Go New Jersey! This is good to see.
142.20/ Yes. Yes it is.

[I've been saying this for years. Also: manna canonically tastes like a donut]
142.21/ Everyone please have a wonderful Chag Kasher v'Sameach, a great #Passover holiday. Stay safe and #ShabbatShalom.

195.02/ Happy #Eclipse2024 Day for all who celebrate. Here's an interesting article about the halakhic implications of an eclipse by Rabbi Dov Linzer:

195.03/ #Eclipse2024 My extended family went to a place of 100% totality and took this picture a few minutes ago. For me its 90% and can't be photographed (which is one reason I said shehechiyanu). Not paskening for anyone else, but for me this is a religious experience. The total eclipse of April 8, 2024

Week 191 below.
192.02/ So today is #ZayinAdar and Saint Patrick's Day during Ramadan. What could go wrong?
192.03/ There's a resonance in having a fast that commemorates a community sacrifice for soldiers fighting a defensive war against raging antisemites. #TaanitEsther

And, hey, it's working already!
