  • in reply to: Leftest are reshoem? #1900570

    As one who has personally observed a few leftists in their
    natural habitat, I’ve documented two distinct types.

    Are there other types you haven’t documented,
    or are you saying all leftism is pathological?

    in reply to: Leftest are reshoem? #1900569

    We now know – why Hashem only wants the Death Penalty.
    The other punishments aren’t Sustainable!

    The article appears in the UMKC Law Review, Vol. 87:1.
    “In recent years, there has been a growing bipartisan consensus that the uniquely
    American policy of mass incarceration is both fiscally and morally unsustainable.”

    I didn’t know Hashem wanted the death penalty for everyone found in
    possession of a certain amount of an illegal substance, any perpetrator
    of non-fatal violence, etc.
    “While the United States represents about 4.4 percent of the world’s
    population, it houses around 22 percent of the world’s prisoners.”
    Does that sound reasonable? (Is this the most criminal country?)

    I wasn’t aware that Hashem wanted the death penalty for everyone
    found in possession of a certain amount of an illegal substance.
    (Also, Hashem’s standards for conviction are very demanding.)

    population, it houses around 22 percent of the world’s prisoners.”
    Does that sound sensible to you? (Is this the most criminal country?)

    in reply to: Nebulizers on Shabbos #1895396

    Hmmm. A guide to halachos about hospitals on Shabbos that I saw this past
    week didn’t seem to go that way at all, so I guess we don’t pasken that way?

    How did topic/jewish-music-3 end up being an earlier thread than topic/jewish-music-2?

    in reply to: Jewish music #1893575

    Who says “Jewish music” is a real concept, anyway?

    in reply to: Jewish music #1893574

    Idea:
    A set of notes at given time intervals has inherent positive/negative qualities.
    If true, there is no way to change the quality.

    vs

    Idea:
    A set of notes at given time intervals has positive/negative qualities
    based on who wrote it, regardless of the actual notes and intervals.
    If true, someone can later rewrite it the same way and take over.

    (I left lyrics out of it.)

    Also, can we please uncouple the idea of morally/spiritually
    good and bad music with whether the music is “Jewish?”

    to anything and are hard to demonstrate as false.)

    (Isn’t there an opinion that there’s no such thing as a shinui if there
    will be no effect in the result (such as handwriting of lesser quality from
    being written with the non-dominant hand)?

    in reply to: QAnon #1893222

    “Q clearance or Q access authorization is the Department of Energy (DOE) security clearance required to access Top Secret Restricted Data, Formerly Restricted Data, and National Security Information, as well as Secret Restricted Data.” -Wikipedia.

    “Lots of nonsense that could mean literally anything” is how DEEP STATE actors
    with ties to SOROS and the CLINTON FOUNDATION describe… Yeah, it’s baloney.
    The style is actually ingenious in the way it lets people get invested in it, though.

    in reply to: Jewish Guitar Chords #1891605

    jewishguitarchords .com also seems to be a thing.

    in reply to: Switching sides #1891733

    As I understand them, content warnings are intended more to help
    people avoid things if they so wish than to prepare for them.

    The main forums page displays the “Family Matters” forum as having no posts.

    Some of the theories on the origin of the virus, if true, is straight out of Torah.

    ?

    in reply to: TAG #1891599

    Does anyone know of a company/organization similar to Hatzalah in Lakewood?

    in reply to: Switching sides #1891597

    accusations that [Trump] is a racist are simply not supported by any evidence

    Oh, come on. Argue a conclusion one way or another, but no supporting evidence?
    Google (language warning)

    we don’t prepare for bad language, we avoid it

    in reply to: If you’re curious about the board game “Bavli,” here you go #1877681

    So basically the comments sections of online Judaica stores…
    Are those usually active (for any product)? I wouldn’t expect them to be.

    in reply to: If you’re curious about the board game “Bavli,” here you go #1877354

    Where do you usually go for reviews of Jewish games?

    Are you sure it’s being published by ArtScroll and not just distributed by them?

    RebYidd is back, but the YWN sidebar is gone.

    Looks like I also forgot to post in proper chronological order;
    it’s a common effect of time travel jet lag.

    in reply to: A strange temptation? #1876863

    Which brings me to how very sad and scary the rising heat related death toll in
    By now, I’ve sent some things to a very limited group. I wasn’t able
    to see the reactions, if any, to the point when I stepped it up a bit.

    If you’ve probably forgotten jokes you read 3 years ago,
    I recommend going back a page (to 40).

    Probably for songs in Hebrew.

    What’s up with thread URLs ending in “__trashed-##” ?

    in reply to: Why are the rioters overwhelmingly white? #1876808

    The white protesters are, almost universally, young people. They’re the product of an
    overly indulgent society, where personal responsibility is not the ideal, self-gratification is.

    Yep, just look at them self-gratifying out there on the street.

    But never told anyone to stop looting.

    As we all know, the way to stop looting is to say “Looter no looting!” 3 times in quick succession.

    Does the data support systemic police racism?

    To some extent. If an AI can tell the race of a driver from the transcript of a traffic stop
    (with all non-racial factors for disparity ruled out), then you’ve got to wonder, eh?

    in reply to: Is EMP Strike Imminent? #1876806

    I don’t think it’s plausible that we could be mistaken for non-sentient.

    in reply to: Bob Grant #1876805

    However: If someone was, in fact, a washroom attendant, is it so terrible to refer to him as such?

    Where’s R’ Yisrael Salanter when we need him?

    in reply to: Why does the frum world have no clout? #1876804

    frum people are terrible voters and if Thomas Jefferson or any of the other founding fathers saw us, they would exclude us from voting

    Explanation, please.

    Bump.

    in reply to: Chazzan Shepsil Kanarek, Who is he? #1876802

    That “Yoshe Kalb” has nothing to do with the story of about a Yoshe Kalb in
    Rabbi Dr. Twerski’s The Zeide Reb Motele, if anyone else is curious.

    in reply to: Being a Ger and BT #1861337

    1. As some have already pointed out, the story is somewhat strange.
    2. There’s been no response from the OP after starting the thread.
    3. The OP’s name is the username of a well-known person on another platform.
    4. On the other hand, the OP’s account was not created very recently.

    Conspiracy theorist detected?

    in reply to: “Event 201” #1841333

    Led by bill gates who has been talking for many years about spreading a virus for depopulation or just depopulation in general. He had a hand in creating one of these viruses on 2015 as well.

    Bill Gates was involved in creating a virus? News to me.
    Bill Gates is a popular target for conspiracy theorists? News to me, but no surprise.

    The third post in the thread “Favorite lines from any song” is as follows:
    tho storms and winds may come, i will bend but never break.
    Does anyone here know what song it’s from? (Google doesn’t.)

    in reply to: Mods? Mods? #1838442

    I just realized that posterity isn’t much of an issue, seeing as you have to go exploring to see this thread.

    Offworld Trading Company is currently free on the EGS. I haven’t played it, but I highly
    doubt it has any questionable content. How accessible it is might be a different story.

    It’s likely that no use was made of either song’s vocal melodies.

    Having Googled “vulnerability”, perhaps you meant the idea that one
    should not allow their desire to avoid negative emotional input to limit
    their engagement with others.

    in reply to: Hashkafah on watching the Super Bowl #1837491

    Actually, maybe I shouldn’t be held responsible for not thinking of that,
    given the description “while [the tablet] was facing away from me.”

    in reply to: Hashkafah on watching the Super Bowl #1837490

    Good point. I should’ve thought of that.

    The listed track lengths on Amazon Music are indeed rather short.
    (Amusingly, the album is “#2822 in Dance & Electronic”.)
