Shabbat shalom pals, earlier this week I tried to light a fire in my fireplace for the first time and had to contend with both the smoke and the smoke detector, got it figured out only for the power recliner to suddenly stop working. That was Wednesday night. They say that on Wednesday you can start preparing mentally, emotionally, and spiritually for Shabbat. And oh boy. As I felt like I was reenacting the gif of Community-pizza-fire, I definitely knew I was ready for some Shabbat sweetness. How were y’all’s weeks? Anyone celebrating Shabbat in a special way?

i hate when something violent happens to a right wing politician and every left leaning pundit and politician gets on their soap box about how "violence isn't the answer" as if the right wing ideology doesn't inherently encourage violence.

"his son just had his first birthday" they're separating families. they're attacking trans people. they're building concentration camps. they send "thoughts and prayers" for school shootings and don't enact real change to prevent others. they have stood by israel, which is bombing nurseries. they stormed the capitol and physically harmed others. and i'm supposed to be sad he got shot at?

all jewish people are important and bring value to our community. level of observance, minhag, matrilineal or patrilineal, it doesn't matter. every single jew that prioritizes their judaism (in whatever way is best for them) plays a part in keeping our traditions alive. we are so much better together than we are apart and that can only happen when we realize that there are jews out there who are literally nothing like us and they are still just as jewish and we are ultimately the same people.

Situation still the same

"I asked chatgpt" "I asked grok" oh yeah?! Well I asked my rabbi and he said "it depends"

“What do you think it means?”
