I'm the person who talked about Jewish NY.

My point was that they improved *between seasons* and got actual input after realizing their mistakes. My point was that if they had tried to depict Poland in season 1, they probably would have caught more in season 2.

Ymmv on whether they actually improved, but there was a difference between season 1 and season 2. As the other confessor pointed out, having one non-malicious golem isn't much. But in S2 they did have a rabbi consulting, Rabbi Shais Rishon. And "emet" is written on the roof of Willy's mouth, which differs from many sources but is still relevant. Kingston consulted with a rabbi in character. (They get more into golem lore and discuss how Willy isn't really a traditional golem). It was a plot point---they even had the truth/death thing tie into the greater themes of the villain.

There is a *lot* we can talk about wrt how Dimension 20 portrays Judaism and the general culturally Christian atheist vibe they fall into, but that wasn't the point of that post. It wasn't about achievement. It was about *improvement.* Recognizing failures and making an effort to be more mindful and consult stakeholders between seasons.

Hot take but I’m starting to think that the Talmud isn’t really written in Aramaic, or at least certainly not the same way the Targumim are. It’s more of a Hebrew-Aramaic pidgin, used specific for halakhic discourse.

My interview with Rosa DeVries

My interview with Rosa DeVries, Rosa is a Dutch Jewish lady and a daughter of Holocaust survivors. She lives in Rishon LeZion (Hebrew: רִאשׁוֹן לְצִיּוֹן a city in Israel, located along the central Israeli coastal plain eight kilometres (5 mi) south of Tel Aviv, and about 55 km away from Gaza.We talked about her experiences in Israel as a citizen in the current situation and about her son who is…

You're thinking of the absolutely wrong kind of ma‘asrot. I will offer you lemons, but my dad already has a Levi friend to whom he prefers giving his Ma‘aser Rishon.

The post is getting super long so ask time lol i wasnt talking about teruma. I was talking purely about ma'aser. And whilst at it, as far as I remember (i could be very wrong on that though lol) nowadays every ma'aser that's given by law to levi can be given to cohen as well, since cohanim are from levi and just specific families who did the bulk if the work at the temple. But pls correct me if i'm wrong it's been a hot mi ute since I leared all of these xD

For the protocol - this is the post in question.

It's been some time since I learned it as well, I need to go over it. However, it's important to note that unlike T(e)ruma, Ma‘aser can be eaten by everyone. That's why many people actually keep it and only get rid of the T(e)ruma - due to the supposed dubiousness of Levite descent nowadays, the Halacha requires the Levite to prove they're Levite before taking the Ma‘aser.

But in relation to Cohanim: there apparently was a decree of ‘Ezra the Scribe that I can't find the source to right now that the Ma‘aser will not go to the Levites anymore because they didn't come back to Israel in great numbers during his time. This was a temporary decree, most likely, but it does show that Ma‘asrot can be given to Cohanim. There's also apparently a portion in the Gemara (Yevamot 86A) that talks directly about this, but the person saying Ma‘aser Rishon can be given to Cohanim just happens to be a Cohen himself and a 10th generation descendant of ‘Ezra, so take it with a grain of salt. Or don't, since the Gemara clearly doesn't. So in essence, you are correct.

PLEASE READ THIS IF YOU CAN SO YOU CAN KNOW WHAT IS HAPPENING TO TRANSGENDER PEOPLE, POOR PEOPLE AND LEFTISTS IN THE UK RIGHT NOW!

Don’t let Rishi Sunaks current agenda fool you. While he is blaming transgender people for things that aren’t even problems (fun fact: more MP’s have been reported assaulting people in the bathroom than transgender people) you need to be aware of what he is doing.

The price of oil has surged 30% since June,

They are trying to ban protest and free speech,

4.2 Million children (29% of children in the uk) are living in poverty,

The inflation rate is 6.7+.

While people are starving, while kids are going to school with broken shoes and empty bellies, this man is ignoring it and complaining about how he doesn’t like transgender people. He will continue to ignore real issues and harass transgender people so that you don’t notice all of the things going wrong.

He’s banned people from hospital wards that match their gender identity, meaning many trans people may avoid being hospitalised when they need to because they will be put on the wrong ward, which may mean people don’t get the healthcare they need and may even DIE.

In the past five years, hate crimes against transgender people have gone up 186%.

Over 300 transgender people have been murdered in the last year.

Trans people are 770% more likely to commit suicide, mostly because of this cruel persecution from the government and society.

Taking away the rights and ruthlessly persecuting and attacking a group of people who only make up 0.5% of the population is fucking ridiculous. Trans people have done nothing wrong.

Rishon Sunak is a fucking fascist, the whole Tory party are fucking fascists, and if you vote for them you’re also a fascist.

Oh, and by the way, because I’m a very intense leftist, this could be sent to my college and they can send me to a radicalisation/terrorism course for expressing my political views about you know… not wanting to be killed by the governments cruel policies. Yes, you heard that right. If you are communist, anarchist or even just too intensely left for their liking, they can shove you into a radicalisation programme and forcefully influence your views. This country is going to hell and we can’t keep ignoring it.

They are also freezing income and National insurance tax meaning most people will be getting pushed up into a higher tax bracket that they just cannot afford, the rise in tax will be unpredictable and most likely more than the current tax, on this monetary note, our knife crime has risen 80% no doubt because of inflation and cost of living creating a higher general crime rate and therefore increasing this crime alongside it.

This section is directed to the Americans: please help spread this word. Many of us in the UK are reblogging and raising the alarm for you. Please, do the same for us. We are quickly falling into parallel situations, and people seem to have no clue what’s happening in the UK despite the fact it’s no secret.

~ Thank you.

I came to the surprising conclusion that Israelis are bad at things thet germans are good at

Cars? terrible, awful, don't ever drive a Susita unless you wanna die.

trains? Very very bad. The fact there isn't a direct line from east rishon to TEL Aviv is enough. Also there's no subway. At all.

beer? actually I'm a minor so can't tell.

Being unemotional? hell no! actually the exact opposite.

Economy? have you seen the prices here?

LGBTQ rights? well, actually, we have the most rights here in more than every country in the middle east! which basically means we won't be put in jail or killed! marriage? no, not if you wanna go through the rabbinate.

losing at wars? no, for now.

dance music? I know it's more about individual tastes, but I'm gonna say no.

education? as someone who's currently in our education system, it's broken and terrible.

apologizing for our mistakes? what mistakes? we've made zero mistakes. there's no reason for us to apologize.

being united? If we have Berlin it will be cause we built it.

furniture? do we even make it?

order and cleanliness? ha! no.

I rest my case.

[ 📹 Scenes from the Israeli occupation army's bombardment, which began today in the eastern residential neighborhoods of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, killing 22 Palestinians who were targeted in their homes. 📸 Photos of flyers dropped by the occupation army ordering of over 1.4 million displaced Palestinians, jam packed into Rafah, to migrate to the Khan Yunis and Al-Mawasi areas, which have already been obliterated in the Israeli army's genocide in Gaza.]

🇮🇱⚔️🇵🇸 🚀🏘️💥🚑 🚨

213 DAYS OF GENOCIDE: AIRSTRIKES INTENSIFY KILLING MORE PALESTINIANS; AL-JAZEERA'S OFFICES CLOSED, EQUIPMENT SEIZED; RAFAH OPERATION BEGINS, PALESTINIANS FORCED OUT

On the 213th day of "Israel's" ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the Israeli occupation forces committed a total of 5 new massacres of Palestinian families, resulting in the deaths of no less than 52 Palestinians, mostly women and children, while another 90 others were wounded over the previous 24-hours.

It should be noted that as a result of the constant Israeli bombardment of Gaza's healthcare system, infrastructure, residential and commercial buildings, local paramedic and civil defense crews are unable to reach countless hundreds, even thousands of victims who remain trapped under the rubble, or who's bodies remain strewn across the streets of Gaza.

This leaves the official death toll vastly undercounted, as Gaza's healthcare officials are unable to accurately tally those killed and maimed in this genocide, which must be kept in mind when considering the scale of the mass murder.

Due to the Israeli occupation's attempts to pressure Qatar to put it's own pressure on the Hamas resistance movement to accept a bad deal, in bad faith negotiations, Al-Jazeera's satellite news network in Palestine was closed on Sunday, its offices raided and equipment seized.

The Israeli occupation's warrant included the confiscation of its broadcasting equipment, the prevention of the broadcasting of Al-Jazeera's reporting, and blocked its websites inside the occupied Palestinian territories.

In a post on the social media platform X, the Israeli occupation's Prime Minister, Benjamin Netanyahu, wrote "the government headed by me unanimously decided: the incitement channel Al-Jazeera will be closed in Israel."

In statement issued by Al-Jazeera, the news network condemned the closing of its offices in Palestine, describing the actions of the Israeli occupation as a "criminal act", warning that the entity's suppression of a free press "stands in direct contravention of International and humanitarian law."

"Al Jazeera Media Network strongly condemns and denounces this criminal act that violates human rights and the basic right to access of information. Al Jazeera affirms its right to continue to provide news and information to its global audiences," Al-Jazeera's statement reads.

"Israel’s ongoing suppression of the free press, seen as an effort to conceal its actions in the Gaza Strip, stands in contravention of international and humanitarian law. Israel’s direct targeting and killing of journalists, arrests, intimidation and threats will not deter Al Jazeera from its commitment to cover, whilst more than 140 Palestinian journalists have been killed since the beginning of the war on Gaza."

"The Network vehemently rejects the allegations presented by Israeli authorities suggesting professional media standards have been violated. It reaffirms its unwavering commitment to the values embodied by its Code of Ethics,” the Qatari news network added.

In the meantime, a fourth Israeli occupation soldier has died as a result of wounds sustained during a Hamas rocket attack launched from the Rafah area on Sunday, targeting an Israeli occupation military site in Kerem Shalom, in the south of the occupied Palestinian territories.

According to a report published by the Israeli public broadcaster, Channel 12, "Sergeant Michael Rozel, 18 years old from Rishon Lezion, a fighter in the 931st Battalion of the Nahal Brigade, fell yesterday (Sunday) in a barrage to Kerem Shalom."

The other three soldiers who were killed in the strike include:

Sergeant Reuven Mark Mordechai Assolin, 19 years old from Ra'anana, served as a soldier in the Shaked Battalion in the Givati Brigade. Sergeant Ido Testa, 19 years old from Jerusalem, served as a soldier in the Shaked Battalion in the Givati Brigade. Sergeant Tal Shavit, 21 years old from Kfar Giladi, served as a soldier in Battalion 931 in the Nahal Brigade.

In other news, Israeli army radio announced yesterday that the Israeli occupation forces (IOF) have begun the evacuation of Palestinian civilians from the Rafah area, in the southern Gaza Strip, forcing families living in tent cities to pack up their belongings and leave once again, this time in preparation for the occupation army's invasion of the city of Rafah.

The Israeli army radio said that the occupation forces began evacuating Palestinians from Rafah towards previously erected displacement concentration camps in the Khan Yunis and Al-Mawasi areas.

Both cities have been completely destroyed by previous occupation army operations in the south of Gaza, and little of either city's infrastructure remains. Only Rafah has not been completely obliterated.

According to analysis of satellite imagery, the Israeli occupation army deployed approximately 300 military vehicles near the Rafah border with the occupied Palestinian territories.

Rafah is currently the only home left for more than 1.4 million Palestinians, most of whom have been displaced from other areas in Gaza, where Israeli military operations have turned entire cities into rubble.

Meanwhile, the Israeli occupation forces greatly intensified its attacks on Palestinians over the last day, slaughtering entire families and destroying the few homes and buildings that remain standing following 7 months of Israeli bombardment.

On Sunday evening, Israeli occupation warplanes bombed a Palestinian house belonging to the Al-Attar family in the Yabna Refugee Camp, located south of the city of Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, resulting in the deaths of 5 civilians, including a woman and a child, while several others were wounded in the attack.

At the same time, IOF artillery detatchments shelled the southern areas of the Al-Zaytoun neighborhood, southeast of Gaza City, while civil defense personnel in the Gaza Governate recovered the decomposing bodies of five civilians belonging to the Al-Jaabari family, who were killed following the targeting of their home by the Israeli occupation army near the Palestinian stadium in the city.

Additionally, several Palestinians were killed on Sunday evening following the occupation's bombing of the Nuseirat Refugee Camp, in the central Gaza Strip.

According to local reports, occupation warplanes bombed a room housing displaced civilians in the Al-Jaouni School, belonging to the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestine (UNRWA), located in the Nuseirat Camp, killing 6 civilians and maiming several others.

The horrors continued into dawn on Monday, with at least 22 Palestinians killed, including 8 children, as a result of the Israeli occupation's targeting of 11 residential homes in Rafah over the last day.

In one example, occupation aircraft bombed a residential house belonging to the Abu Lebda family, in the Al-Geneina neighborhood, east of Rafah City, resulting in the deaths of 4 civilians, including at least two children.

Similarly, occupation forces bombed another home belonging to the Qishta family in the Al-Salam neighborhood, opposite the Haroun Al-Rashid Mosque, east of the city of Rafah, slaughtering 9 civilians, including 4 children, one of whom, Hani Qishta, was born and died during the duration of the war.

The IOF raids went on to bomb a civilian house belonging to the Al-Hashash family in the Oreibo neighborhood, north of Rafah City, while another bombing targeted the home of the Shteiwi family, east of Rafah.

The fighter jets of the Zionist occupation forces continued with their bombing by targeting a residential home belonging to the Ermilat family, in the vicinity of the Al-Tawhid Mosque, in the Al-Salam neighborhood east of Rafah, and also bombed the residential home of the Al-Kawaja family, in the Al-Bilbisi area, also east of Rafah.

Yet another attack occured with the targeting of the Abu Hashem family in the Al-Zuhur neighborhood, north of Rafah, wounding a number of civilians.

A house in the Al-Fokhari neighborhood of Khan Yunis was also bombed and destroyed by the IOF.

Further airstrikes were recorded targeting areas of Khirbet al-Adas, northeast of Rafah, while occupation artillery forces also shelled the eastern neighborhoods of the city of Jabalia, in the northern Gaza Strip, inflicting incredible damage, while also killing and wounding several civilians.

Israeli air forces went on to bombard residential homes in the towns of Beit Lahiya and Beit Hanoun, in the northern axis of the Palestinian enclave.

Israeli aircraft also launched several firebelts targeting the Tal al-Hawa neighborhood of Gaza City.

The carnage went on with several bombardments in central Gaza as well, including a bombing which targeted near the Istiqama Mosque, south of the Maghazi Refugee Camp, martyring one civilian and wounding several others, while occupation fighter jets additionally bombed several homes in the village of Al-Mughraqa, also in central Gaza.

As a result of the Israeli occupation's ongoing special genocide operation in the Gaza Strip, the death toll among the local population has risen to exceed 34'735, including over 14'560 children and 9'582 women, while another 78'108 others have been wounded since the start of the current round of Zionist aggression, beginning with the events of October 7th, 2023.
