152.01/ Week one-hundred and fifty-two, June 10-16, 2023, thread begins here.

Week 151 below.
152.02/ We're off to a wedding (yay!) as a whole family (yay!) and when we ask, globally, if everyone is ready, I think about this scene:
152.03/ Alert: "Kung Fu Hustle" is free for streaming on Amazon Prime. This is not a drill.

152.04/ Life as a Modern Orthodox Gen-Xer at a frum wedding: the kallah's name is Jessica & the band played a rendition of the Allman Bros. song "Jessica" & nobody at my table, and a few others, got the reference. (I made sure to tell the couple who got a kick out of it)
152.06/ All three of my kids are out of school for the summer which means, as is my wont, I played theme songs
1) This classic by Alice Cooper

2) & for my youngest, leaving the school she attended since 3 years old for high school:
152.07/ #NachasAlert: My son has a long Dvar Torah in this week's Torah journal from his high school (which he edits, but sadly doesn't write often enough for my tastes... mainly so he can platform as many others as possible. So, double nachas)

152.08/ #NachasAlert: My brother (the OG BAT scholar, if you recall) and his renowned extemporaneity is reaching a wider audience.
152.09/ #NachasAlert: evidently my cousin is the Dad of the Decade (for Chopstix in Teaneck). Who am I to argue with the press?

152.14/ I have accepted this challenge for decades
152.15/ Not gonna lie. I'm a huge comic sans fan and I defy the haters.
152.17/ Barukh Dayan ha-Emet. I took the opportunity to show my kids what I have of his work. He defines Spiderman for me (Gen-X) as well as X-men.
152.18/ Look at these two scorecards. Hovering at 80%. #NYM are underperforming, no doubt, but c'mon now. #LGM

152.19/ I will end here for now. Have a great Shabbas everyone. Stay safe & #ShabbatShalom!

150.02/ I'm finally back into Twitter on my laptop. It's been weeks, but I was able to navigate the hurdles. Even though it's official "week 151", I'll use the remainders of this truncated thread to log my posts from weeks 149-150 and then start 151. Whew.

146.03/ This is a cartoon character catch!

[Alt-video/image: Outfielder dives for the ball, it pops out of his glove, flies in the air, falls on his head, rolls down his back, down his arm, and back into his glove]

Week 144 below.
145.02/ I'm trying to catch up on all the fun I missed over Shabbas.
145.03/ Ya know how you used to believe in [literal and/or impossible thing about fundamental aspects of life] when you were a kid but then discovered the truth as you got older & more educated? Well the M*sk/Tr*mp years showed us many adults have never reached that milestone.
