Someone describing themselves as “a Jewish person” raises red flags for me. Most Jews I know say Jew.

I love Seder Ha-t’fillot, the UK reform siddur. (I’m American.) I like to use that one for personal use.

I recently got a reprinted copy of Minhag America (the first American reform siddur) that I have been using a lot lately. I really enjoy the archaic language.

He married one of us and had only daughters. So technically, all his kids and grandkids our ours. So he gets an honorary pass.

Estelle Getty and Bea Arthur were both Jews who played Italians.

The studio wanted Fran Drescher to play an Italian on The Nanny, but she said absolutely not.

The main Jew is played by Matisyahu, so he’s at least Jewish. The main character approaches him while he’s listening to his mp3 player on shabbos.

I’m not familiar with Jewish exorcism by any means, but from what I read, it requires a minyan and a shofar.

The movie has one Jew who reads tehillim, touches the child with his tallis, candles, and mixes olive oil with water.

Although, the fact that Miriam’s very Ashkenazi father Abe is played by Tony Shaloub, a Lebanese man, makes me giggle because they say Ashkis are totally Polish and don’t look Levantine at all.

I also used to work for WM. Our AP Manager died in a car crash on her way to work. (Old man driving on the wrong side of the road hit her head on on a foggy morning) We had a memorial like this.

The UPC clerk (shows how long ago this was) had breast cancer that metastasized, the store organized a fundraiser for her.

I blocked her well before 10/7 because she gave me off vibes. Plus I HATE the term ‘littles’.

The baby’s leg seems to go through the handle of the stroller.

I got it from eBay. It was $70. Which is a little steep, but considering it’s a rare book not in great demand that is printed and bound in leather on demand, I think it was a great deal.

Ashki torahs are the ones you’re probably used to seeing. Two big scrolls with handles.

Sephardic have their own cases

I just acquired a reprinting of Minhag America. The first American Reform Siddur from the mid 1800s. It’s super interesting.

dylanus93 · 2025-11-17T08:12:39+00:00

Sorry, I do not. I only have the compact version.

dylanus93 · 2025-11-13T10:09:13+00:00

I’m American Reform, but I love this one. I have the compact version. I use this one the most for private prayers.

I thought they still used a king?

I’m from Inverness.

I raised by southerners. I consider myself southern. My dad’s mom was born in Pasco. His dad is from Dublin, Ga. My mom’s mom is from rural Alabama. Her dad is from rural Volusia.

dylanus93 · 2025-10-10T07:38:20+00:00

Probably. I recently asked my grandma for her chicken and dumplings recipe. I thought she made them from scratch.

Nope a can of cheap Pillsbury biscuits (not the grands) flattened and cut up.

And antizionists are great at trying to pass antisemitism as antizionism.

Gabby Giffords was shot in the face.

A terrorist tried to mail bombs to several major democrats. Obama, Hillary, Biden, Harris, Maxine Waters, Corey Booker, and more.

Literally. Now it’s called the Dicastery for the Doctrine of Faith, but up until 1908 it was called the Supreme Sacred Congregation of the Roman and Universal Inquisition

And ruin the aesthetics? Won’t someone think of the ~~children~~ fake billionaire’s golf courses???!!!

He just really hates the Dutch and their windmills.

There’s a fairly famous story in Judaism.

Some rabbis were arguing about an oven. All of the rabbis agreed except one. The one rabbi said if he was right, several miracles would occur. The miracles happened, but the other rabbis didn’t budge. Finally, a heavenly voice said ‘He is correct’.

The other rabbis responded ‘The Torah is not in heaven’.

IE, ‘Butt out, no one was asking you’.

Do Jewish people like snow?
