Rev E, if someone is davka changing into weekday clothing to be able to wear it during the week, it is hachana. It’s clear that he’s not doing it because this is what he wants to wear now.
July 11, 2021 11:44 am at 11:44 am in reply to: Do you try on clean clothes before the 9 days? #1990375☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSo, RebE’s grandfathers took on different observances than someone else’s. No need to argue…
There’s no minhag to allow blatantly preparing for chol on Shabbos.
Besides, my grandfathers had the minhag of pointing out when someone tries to peddle false halacha, so there’s no point in arguing with me
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantObviously, r’l, there is no comparison with the tragedy in Florida
Right, so why did you make it?
July 11, 2021 12:30 am at 12:30 am in reply to: Do you try on clean clothes before the 9 days? #1990205☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantStepping can be done on a weekday in 9 days when not worn before.
B’dieved
As far as wearing weekday clothes on Shabbos, you are mistaken. It’s hachana.
The only heter is clothing you really could wear on Shabbos (such as a white shirt) and on Shabbos morning, instead of putting on your shirt from Friday night, you out on a fresh shirt, that’s okay. Same when waking up from a nap.
But stam trying on clothes that you don’t need to put on is hachana.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhat are they criticizing you for?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNo, you go to B&H.

June 9, 2021 1:40 pm at 1:40 pm in reply to: why “early to bed, early to rise” and not “late to bed, late to rise”? #1981393☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantsame amount of sleep, same amount of work.
Early to bed early to rise requires more self discipline. That’s the real predictor for success.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNo he didn’t. He said, correctly, that plenty of people make parnossa without the full regimen of secular studies. They do learn parnossa skills, just not in the way you advocate.
BTW (and this wasn’t his point, it’s my question), how do you deal with ר’ נהוראי’s statement?
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantmeirs, who are you to argue on the Gemorah?
I’m calling straw man. He didn’t say that.
June 7, 2021 9:01 am at 9:01 am in reply to: The future of the democracy of the U.S. government #1980766☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantDr. Fauci and Bill gates together came up with this Coronavirus pandemic plan together quietly to bring it upon the nation and the world so they can access to your entire life and all your information. As well as the entire tech world now of Google, Facebook and Twitter that are conquering to take over our entire freedoms and privacy of our lives and share it with whoever they want.
This is so nutty that it discredits everything else you wrote.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThe differnce is that ssy it is not a hefsek being part of teflla
That’s exactly the shaila – is it or is it not part of tefilah.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantDY, he means to say that it beautifies the tefila like cufflings on a shirt or icing on a caks which should not be a hefsek.
Like גימוניות של זהב on a לולב?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTo claim that they are a hefsek makes no sense. It’s like saying the icing is a hefsek in the cake. Or that the cufflinks are a hefsek in the shirt.
I’m sure you realize that there is no din that a cake or shirt can’t have a hefek. So, the comparison doesn’t make sense.
May 23, 2021 9:39 pm at 9:39 pm in reply to: Women Entering the Workforce and the Calamitous Declining Fertility Rate Effect #1976580☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantHow about the KOLLEL movement
You’d have a hard time convincing me that it has a negative effect on the birth rate.
where the husband abrogates his kesuba obligations?
That’s pretty much a fallacy. In the vast majority of cases (I’m not aware of any exceptions but there certainly might be) the wife is mochel on him going to work and allows him to go to the beis medrash.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantwait long enough and, sure, the masks will not be needed
They were never needed for the vaccinated.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMaybe as more people are vaccinated, the risk of getting sick diminishes and less restrictions are required.
You missed his point. The loosening of restrictions was sudden and unexpected.
He didn’t discourage vaccination; I don’t know where you got that notion from.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNow that the supply is higher than demand, they pull out their secret weapon and remove restrictions for the vaccinated
For all practical purposes they removed them for everyone since nobody’s checking.
May 13, 2021 12:46 am at 12:46 am in reply to: why should i take the the vacccine if i had the virus already ? #1974019☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantwhy should i take the the vacccine if i had the virus already ?
They think the vaccine gives better and longer lasting immunity than immunity obtained by getting the virus. It’s also more recent.
Does that mean it’s worth it? I don’t know. I think getting vaccinated is pretty much a no-brainer for someone who never has the virus, but I understand the hesitancy of someone who once had it. I’m also not anxious for 12 year olds to get the Covid vaccine.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantJackk, how would you compare her response to the situation in Eretz Yisroel now to the response of the squad and Bernie?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantEither that or your jokes are very elevated.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantShooting hundreds of rockets at Israeli civilians isn’t provocative? 🤔
May 11, 2021 4:39 pm at 4:39 pm in reply to: Should I buy my chavrusa a fancy cheescake for shavuos? #1973196☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYou can buy me the cheesecake, I won’t feel indebted to you.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant@syag-lchochma I never said I am pro-death! Stop LYING!!!!!
Nobody ever said you said you are pro death. I am saying you are pro death.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantBased on your track record, I would say lying, so I’ll stick with my assertion that you are pro death.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIn a word, yes
Then you are either lying or ignorant.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIyH this “war” will bring משיח and this wouldn’t have happened if trump was president
I would take משיח over Trump
CA, that’s an odd comment. You’re basically saying you’re okay with rockets being shot at Yerushalayim.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantDo you deny that every year people die of the flu and that if everyone wore masks there were would be fewer deaths from flu?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIt’s not that I don’t “care” about people dying from the flu, it’s that the link between me not wearing a mask and people dying from the flu is tenuous at best
So you’re also pro death. Just less than us.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTo DaasYochid: If Yiddish is not going anywhere, are you saying it will not go into the future? Is your command of Yiddish any better than your command of English?
If you’re going to nitpick my terminology, I might as well point out that “the future” is not a place.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantN0, I am not calling to 19th century idea that Torah can be reduced to health regulations
Glad to hear that, because it certainly seemed that you were.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIf Yiddish is to continue as an effective language
Lol it’s not in any danger of going anywhere.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantDY: It it fair to say that “rebbetzin” has simply become to (almost) be used as another way of saying “wife” or “Mrs.”?
Not in its more formal use, only in a light-hearted way.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantTo answer the OP, it’s become common to use the term rebbtzin in a nonliteral way, e.g. “I am inviting you and your rebitzen to sheva brochos” (CS objected to that, but it doesn’t bother me, since the term rebbetzin doesn’t really have that much importance to me).
Using the term for a public speaker whose husband isn’t a rabbi sort of expands that.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participanti would add that i probably disagree with your statement as there seems to be a lack of understanding of roles that can lead to the false belief that it is the same role but differently labled.
I think a rabbi in a chareidi community has a different role than a rabbi in a modern community. So if a “rebbetzin” in a chareidi community plays a similar role as a rabbi in a modern community (public speaking/chizuk), does that make her a MO rabbi?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantThe above proves somewhat that she can be a Rebbetzin before getting married as Vashti argued that she was a queen before marrying Achashverus.
Inapt comparison. The classic definition of a rebbetzin is a rav’s wife, but a queen does not have to be a king’s wife.
April 29, 2021 2:09 pm at 2:09 pm in reply to: Chesed: Forcing the rich to pay for the poor #1969498☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantHuju, please elaborate. Which points do you disagree with, and why?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWe are drowning in milk, I was giving a theoretical scenario where we weren’t.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantNever heard of a crooked grin?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantWhat would I do if they weren’t? Probably give it to them and kick myself. 🙂
Ok. I can tell you that I would give it to them and not kick myself.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI also know that if i don’t, someone else will.
Not likely in my scenario.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantI thought he was asking if the food was being given to those who would otherwise get it in school.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIf you must know it was iced cappacino made with almond milk and a box of cholov yisroel ice cream bars:)
Yes, I was having a hard time sleeping without that info
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participantso i agree with coffee addict that it is similar. While it may not affect the “ruling “in this case, i am careful not to offer free things to people who can purchase them without hardship.
Ignore the source of the food for a moment.
What would you do if your neighbor asked you to pick up some milk, and let’s say you had some extra around (e.g. overbought and would spoli if not used soon). You wouldn’t just give them a container regardless of ability to buy it in the store?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantIs this COVID emergency
It started that way, but it seems that the Covid emergency has been used as an excuse for more and more federal giveaways. We are moving towards socialism.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantMaybe this is OK and a substitute for “school lunches”
Sort of, but actually (in my locale at least) you’re not eligible if the school your kid attends offers federally funded meals
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYou are telling me that government gives away food to everyone in private schools?
Not to everyone, but it’s not based on finances.
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantYes, I have heard that story, and I don’t understand it at all.
☕ DaasYochid ☕Participant“How can anyone demand that people should drive the speed limit to protect others? How can anyone demand that people should stay inside when the have the flu to protect others? How can anyone demand that people should put fences around construction to protect others?”
Um, it doesn’t say that in that post. Is that your way of twisting his words as you’ve been doing to others’?
☕ DaasYochid ☕ParticipantSyag, any reaction to the responses here?
