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:

mlb.com/news/haunted-b…

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.

225.01/ Week two-hundred and twenty-five, November 2-8, 2024, thread begins here.

Week 224 below.
225.02/ Finally dropped off our ballots this morning & took a selfie. A fun thing then happened: a young dad carrying a baby arrived after us & he said that it was his first time voting after becoming a citizen! So I insisted on taking a photo of him (with his camera). USA! USA!
225.03/ Yes, I'm the one who waited all Shabbas for the poll, taught my kids how polls work (social science PhD, baby) & what I hoped would happen (GOP leading by only 5). And they got to see my stunned elation in real time when I read the news.

224.01/ Week two-hundred and twenty-four, October 26-November 1, 2024, thread begins here.

Week 223 below.
224.02/ There's sticker shock and then there's "standing on the bathroom scale after 3 three-day yuntifs and 2 major fasts over 3 weeks" sticker shock.
224.03/ BTW, Trump (ym"sh) abd the MAGA-GOP going completely mask-off with racist nativism was very much on my BINGO card.

Week 222 below.
223.02/ Downside of "October is the Best Sports Month" - mixed blessing really - is that at 8pm tonight 3 of my teams will be on at the same time. NYMets facing elimination, #LIGHTITUPNYL in the last game of the finals, and the Steelers on SNF.
223.03/ #ChochmatNashim for #Vezot #SimchatTorah #SheminiAtzeret 2023-5784 (LAST YEAR). @ChochmatNashim

222.03/ Another October sports is awesome moment: Mets playoffs, Yankees playoffs, Monday night football plus the #NYR at home. Pretty much all at the same time.

221.03/ Yes, there's been a noticeable online vibe shift that makes people think the GOP is strengthening. It's an op. It's what they did in 2022 with garbage polls but now they've added juicing the betting markets. Fascists need to appear unstoppable. Don't panic.

220.02/ Thank God, today my family was able to receive our #BivalentBooster shot, for COVID19 and the flu. I'm so grateful to live in a country which has easy and plentiful access to life-saving medicine.
