Putting on tefillin after a haircut is very satisfying.
It fits so snug and no tefillin hair!

Purim Has a Drinking Problem One of the most joyous holidays in the jewish tradition is Purim, but it also has a dark side. Purim has a drinking problem.

As we approach Purim, I want to share my thoughts about the use of alcohol:

All the more so, I think the story suggests that he was so tired from his labor that he passed out on Friday night on the roof.

If he's that tired, he's not noticing flakes or clouds.

I think all of the characters are interacting in the land of Israel.

While Hillel the Elder was from Babylonia, he traveled and learned in Israel.

Shmaya and Avtalyon taught about Herod's reign.

On Tyranny Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century

Over the last months, I’ve just been trying to keep @timothysnyder.bsky.social’s advice from On Tyranny in the front of my mind.

We are in the thick of it now, and we must stay grounded.

If you haven’t read the book, here’s the list from his newsletter.

There are no more hostages.

You can (and probably should) put it on your bedroom as well, in nearly any scenario.

But I'll make sure to include that in the video.

The Trump-Vance admin is exactly what they said they were going to be.

Cruel.

ICE is a manifestation of that cruelty.
It cannot remain.

Ok, strange question:

I'm moving soon, and so the background in my office/Zoom/YouTube videos will be changing. I have a ton of meaningful objects in my background that I've never explained.

Do you think people would care if I made a video about those objects and why they are there?

Rabbi Adir Yolkut and I took a little time to reflect on the attack at Bondi Beach in Sydney, and talk about some of the Torah that is helping us process and hold this moment as we enter Hanukkah.
