I still refuse to proof read.
Had a nice Talkud study tonight where we discussed a class we all took and took time to discuss and interpret everything in ways that we felt could motivate us to bring good in the world. And I got to talk about how I think it is important that we find readings of good in Torah.

If I pointed a loaded assault rifle at someone in the street with the obvious intent of intimidating them, I would be arrested and charged with assault (or worse).

This thread has felt the most like old jwitter since the time before the destruction of Twitter. It has been really nice.
What are the mitzves of Thanks Giving, a festive meal, to eat the turkey bird, to hear the story of thepilgrim, to watch the football game. And some say to argue with an uncle.

From when is the name 'stuffing' called upon it? Strongbird says: from when it is stuffed. Avi's mom says: from when it was pronounced as stuffing. Others say: from the beginning of the year, if it was declared verbally.

More evidence of the United States in the transnational repression business.
NEWS --> BBC confirms to me that they did edit a line out of historian @rutgerbregman.com's speech. It called Trump "the most openly corrupt president in US history."
BBC also confirms this was done on the advice of lawyers. So Trump's threats worked.

When the state limits “unacceptable decision making” by women about their own bodies, both women and the babies they’re forced to have are at increased risk of death. Stock is not a feminist. She’s a death enthusiast.
