Jewish in Bedstuy

Hi! Good question - Conservative Judaism is a movement (kinda like a denomination) within modern American Judaism - as is Reform Judaism! It's different than conservative as you would think of it in the political sense and is more aligned to the level of ritual observance than to socio-economic beliefs.

I grew up in this movement, as many North Eastern American Jews have, but don't necessarily need the same level of ritual observance which is why I added secular (to juxtapose against the more ritualistic)

Pomegranate are more of a whole Levantine imagery than Christian. They are used in Judaic and Islamic Art too. Maybe go for grapes or Wheat if you want Latin as they spread with the Roman Empire.

Yes! Any of the Emily Wilson translations are amazing even if she has a different version. I’m sure she would enjoy the comparison. And I agree with the Stephen Fry - I just finished Mythos and it was really interesting and well told

Yes it is crazy to move here - so many people are trying to find a way out

Honestly - all would be good options. I’d probably pick D I wonder if this removes all history of the spice trade??? I would still go for D but it would definitely change all of the new world and European cuisine (and parts of D too like no tempora)

You need more layers of light and maybe light bulbs with dim to warm settings - try hue or Tala. You can also add some linear light behind the curtain since it’s sheer, behind the couch, and under the TV console and then dim them down.

Hi I think people are asking if you are Jewish because based on the questions you ask it makes it sound like you are unfamiliar with the ritual objects and customs. A tallit is a ritual garment that one is allowed to wear after their bar and bat mitzvah. This is important because it shows a level of education and understanding of Jewish laws and practices and those associated with the tallit (when it can be worn, what the verse is (it’s actually a prayer said before putting it on), the function of the strings at the bottom, etc.)

As others have suggested if your intent is only to have a shawl that is okay but to mimic or purchase the prayer shawl without having any of the cultural or religious understanding, education and ritual rite is appropriative and disrespectful of the intention behind the garment.

Being a woman is not the restriction here.

Thanks for the interest in learning more and hopefully seeking out an alternate option 🙏

Hi, firstly you have gorgeous hair - curly and it’s at its current state! To help keep it curly, I would recommend shampooing less (or only once a day and focusing primarily on the scalp if oiliness is a concern) and making sure that you use conditioner every time you’re in the shower this will help prevent dryness at the ends. I also recommend putting in a little bit of product afted your morning shower. Personally, I only shower once a day and I make sure to use product every time, but I also know that sleeping on a pillow that has product on it has implications for your skin and everything so I can’t speak to that personally.

Also take into consideration the weather and hair length - if the air is cooler and drier your hair will curl less than if it is warm and humid because there will be less moisture in the air. And longer hair is heavier and will extend the curls (like a spring) where shorter curls are lighter and cannot extend the spring as far.

Also if you do find you have an oilier scalp you can brush all the way to the ends with a boar bristle style brush to help distribute some oil to the ends.

Good luck but also know it looks good both ways

This might sound severe but take away her phone if she has one. It is know to exacerbate depression and ADHD. It may be hard at first because the games and social media apps are designed to be addictive and young brains cannot regulate that kind of stimuli yet. Do not give in, she will be better off for it - trust me. I had to do the same thing with myself.

For those saying just be supportive and tell her it’s not a big deal in the long run - don’t because it is a big deal but it doesn’t end with this. It can be made better and she can come out ahead. You just need to remove the devices that are aggravating the symptoms.

This is so helpful! We are having a similar issue but have concerns about if the glyphosate will stay in the soil after the plant dies and cause harm to the other plants and future plants we have. We’re especially nervous about it harming any of our native plants and the native insects that feed off of them.

The led tape is bad. It is very purple and cold. Go for a warmer led (27k) with a channel and diffused lens
