There are a lot of kinds.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantTrump is a disgusting person. And yes, here I mean his choices in women and fashion, not politics, but eww.
August 18, 2017 10:27 am at 10:27 am in reply to: Let’s just agree to mythologize American history #1341791👑RebYidd23ParticipantNot that kind of slavery.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantLove is love.
August 18, 2017 10:15 am at 10:15 am in reply to: Let’s just agree to mythologize American history #1341755👑RebYidd23ParticipantThe American Revolution should be fully mythologized so we can act like the United States has more right to exist than Israel. The Civil War is more complicated, but we can choose to apply a concept of abstract heroism in which you can still be heroic fighting for the wrong side. We can also blame the Christian idea at the time that the slaves were heathens before they were slaves, and pretend that slavery only existed because Christians wanted to “save” the heathens. This spreads the blame nicely onto an ideology that is not around anymore in its purest form.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantThere’s nothing wrong with kissing terrorist leaders.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf bigger is better, does that count even if the size of the yarmulke is larger than the wearer’s head?
August 18, 2017 9:35 am at 9:35 am in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1341710👑RebYidd23ParticipantHave you ever overwritten anything?
August 18, 2017 6:58 am at 6:58 am in reply to: What’s a girl to do if her father is not a Talmid Chacham? #1341661👑RebYidd23ParticipantEverything a person does is about what is or is not in their control.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf you want to daven faster, use a fast metronome.
August 18, 2017 6:58 am at 6:58 am in reply to: Let’s just agree to mythologize American history #1341663👑RebYidd23ParticipantIn the mythology we don’t talk about the slaves too much.
August 18, 2017 6:58 am at 6:58 am in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1341664👑RebYidd23ParticipantBig deal, overwriting it is the only thing you can do. That is what acceptance does.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf you always ask a rav, the bracha still applies. The rav is a person.
August 18, 2017 12:54 am at 12:54 am in reply to: What’s a girl to do if her father is not a Talmid Chacham? #1341596👑RebYidd23ParticipantA boy has more control over whether or not he is an am haaretz than a girl has over whether her father is a talmid chacham.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantFerd, that comes off as victim blaming.
August 18, 2017 12:54 am at 12:54 am in reply to: Why a Bigger Yarmulka is a Better Yarmulka #1341598👑RebYidd23ParticipantShould we assume other things equal? Because larger kippas tend to be the knitted ones.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantI have never tried this, but it sounds brilliant.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantI just ruined the perfection of my own thread.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantSlower moderation speed makes for more perfect threads.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantA sheilah had already been asked there.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantIs tochacha the same thing as stopping someone mid action?
👑RebYidd23ParticipantI still lie awake at night wondering what this meant.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantThose are bad things on their own, jf02. I don’t think having a girl is necessarily bad.
August 17, 2017 12:03 pm at 12:03 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1341186👑RebYidd23ParticipantBig deal, people who have anxiety don’t necessarily have OCD. Obsession and fear are also very different. And there is no “learning”, only possibly overwriting.
August 17, 2017 12:03 pm at 12:03 pm in reply to: The Casualties of Yiddish in Litvishe Chadorim #1341182👑RebYidd23ParticipantDisadvantage of speaking Yiddish: random German speakers who overhear you understand you but think you have awful grammar.
August 17, 2017 12:03 pm at 12:03 pm in reply to: Men marrying younger women: Chassidic vs Yeshivish #1341180👑RebYidd23ParticipantThere are plenty of boys but they’re all chassidic.
August 16, 2017 11:39 pm at 11:39 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1340912👑RebYidd23ParticipantYogis are said to be able to control their heart rates.
August 16, 2017 11:39 pm at 11:39 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1340910👑RebYidd23ParticipantOCD is both obsessive and compulsive.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantWe are in this world to keep the Torah and getting killed by radical rightists would inhibit that.
August 16, 2017 5:42 pm at 5:42 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1340799👑RebYidd23ParticipantBut anxiety is not just a thought, it’s like a neurological machine that fuels thoughts and emotions that keep punching you in the face.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantI don’t think we have to worry about our president supporting hate groups. He seems as self-involved and ignorant as ever.
August 16, 2017 4:33 pm at 4:33 pm in reply to: When Yossi’s depression was mistaken for Atzlus by his mashgiach #1340747👑RebYidd23ParticipantWhile depression is a common cause of suicide, there are also suicides that are committed in the name of honor.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantThere are plenty of threats on both sides and in the middle.
August 16, 2017 1:06 pm at 1:06 pm in reply to: The Casualties of Yiddish in Litvishe Chadorim #1340609👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf your goal is to teach children something other than a language, it is most efficient and reasonable to teach them in their primary language.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantEverything that hasn’t affected my life so far comes from a lack of bitachon.
August 16, 2017 1:58 am at 1:58 am in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1339878👑RebYidd23ParticipantAnxiety and depression would cancel each other out because people who are depressed usually stop caring about the things they are or would be anxious about.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantForgot to quote, posts out of order. 🙁
👑RebYidd23ParticipantEven if they are wearing it over their hat?
August 16, 2017 12:14 am at 12:14 am in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1339789👑RebYidd23ParticipantLet’s just throw science aside and pretend that scientists and conventional medicine blame anxiety on a dinosaur living in your head.
August 16, 2017 12:08 am at 12:08 am in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1339812👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf one belief/emotion could just unseat another, depression and anxiety would cancel each other out. But they don’t.
August 15, 2017 6:14 pm at 6:14 pm in reply to: Which CR Poster do you want to meet in real life? #1339744👑RebYidd23ParticipantLilmod, I wouldn’t want to meet you in real life because then you would also get to meet me.
August 15, 2017 2:35 pm at 2:35 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1339602👑RebYidd23ParticipantHaleivi, I didn’t say anything about mocking him. Mocking him would just be wrong because he is a human being.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantAlso the zoo animal rubber ducks are weird.
August 15, 2017 2:02 pm at 2:02 pm in reply to: Anxiety, Bitachon, and Morons (Dah mah shetashiv l'moron) #1339549👑RebYidd23ParticipantOn the other hand, he is no less likely now than any other person to encounter a child falling out of a window. So it’s still possible for his unhealthy behaviors to save a child’s life.
August 15, 2017 2:37 am at 2:37 am in reply to: Which CR Poster do you want to meet in real life? #1339184👑RebYidd23ParticipantIf you meet a mod in real life do they get to mod you in real life?
👑RebYidd23ParticipantOnce they see the beauty of litvishness.
August 14, 2017 9:54 pm at 9:54 pm in reply to: Which CR Poster do you want to meet in real life? #1339139👑RebYidd23ParticipantI think I would like to meet Gamanit and discuss monkeys and typewriters.
👑RebYidd23ParticipantWhen the day camp my sister attended had a school themed day, I felt that that stole away some of the joy of summer vacation.
👑RebYidd23Participant“If I saw you do that, you’ll definitely get caught if you try it again.”
August 14, 2017 7:11 pm at 7:11 pm in reply to: When Yossi’s depression was mistaken for Atzlus by his mashgiach #1338975👑RebYidd23ParticipantThe mental health field though is one where it’s hard to vet. Especially when it’s for children, whose parents are the ones choosing and giving feedback.
