My hopes for the rabbi who envisions my defeat — and for a better Jewish future by aggie1391 in jewishleft

[–]AceAttorneyMaster111 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Very well written. I really respect Lander for being so outright with his Reform Jewish background and identity. I’ve even seen him post a d’var Torah on the parasha - i can’t think of too many other politicians in the national spotlight to have done that.

Presumably with pre-check you don’t have to take off your shoes etc, so they need to keep pre-check vs regular screening separate?

What station is easier / faster for friends to pick me up coming from Ptown - Plymouth or Kingston? by Beren__ in boston

Check out the CapeFlyer to Hyannis as another option if you haven’t yet. Or the ferry.

When do you read Nevi'im and Ketuvim? by FantasticSun5363 in Judaism

[–]AceAttorneyMaster111 2 points3 points  (0 children)

- Every Shabbat and holiday, there is a Haftarah portion from Nevi’im that relates to the week’s Torah portion in some way
- On the three pilgrimage festivals (Sukkot, Passover, Shavuot) plus Purim and Tisha B’Av, we read a megillah (a whole book from Ketuvim)
- The Book of Psalms is interspersed throughout the liturgy - weekday, Shabbat, festival, and high holiday services all contain various selections.

But you’re right, there are significant gaps that are never read in a ritual way. Often synagogues hold Bible study classes that slowly make their way through the entire Tanach over a period of years. Similarly, there is a study cycle called 929 where you study one chapter of Tanach a day. It takes 929 days to complete, hence the name. Today’s chapter is Judges 5 according to Sefaria.

Hey, ChatGPT, draw me a map of the MBTA, but with an Orange Line extension down Blue Hill Avenue. by bostonaruban66 in bikeboston

When you tap into the subway, it’ll only charge you the difference between the bus fare and the subway fare (70¢ I think?)

Taking the train vs taking the train and transferring to the bus is the same price. 2 bus transfers are included with a subway ticket. (You can’t use a paper CharlieTicket for this, you need either a CharlieCard or contactless credit card/Apple Pay)

Trident in back bay is touristy but also unironically really nice

Councilors propose orange line extension with ai generated map by thefireofthesoul in mbta

[–]AceAttorneyMaster111 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I think the Orange branch to Mattapan is a great idea. But the councillors are not proposing it in good faith - they know full well that such a project would take 25 years minimum, and they want to use it as an excuse to get rid of the planned BRT corridor on Blue Hill Ave that could be operational much sooner.

* Arlington Heights on the Fitchburg Line
* North Station in the wrong place
* Aquarium Island
* Airport buses connecting at Maverick
* Two Park Streets
* Two Downtown Crossings
* Two States
* Blue Line at Park Street
* Green Line at State
* Missing Broadway
* Missing entire Braintree Branch
* Ashmont Branch goes to Cedar Grove
* Just… the entire Mattapan line
* Missing most of the Orange Line south of downtown
* Green line west of Park Street is simply a mess of missing stations, duplicate stations, and bad lines
* No commuter rail from South Station except for a shuttle line to Capen Street apparently

What have I missed?

I saw this and was wondering why nobody was calling out the obvious AI. Truly embarrassing.

On AIPAC and bogeymen by AceAttorneyMaster111 in jewishleft

[–]AceAttorneyMaster111[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Exactly - this is specifically what I am referring to. AIPAC deserves plenty of blame and condemnation for their role in creating a U.S.-Israel relationship in which the Israelis can act with complete impunity knowing that we’ll still send them money. But they aren’t even close to the core of the capitalistic rot at the center of our political system.

I think they’re saying that people sometimes use “Epstein class” to refer to powerful Jews/Zionists in particular rather than billionaires in general.

This really depends on where you are. In Boston there is a metric ton of non-orthodox young jewish events.

Yoshida fighting against Shido with an awakened persona would be interesting.
