This popped up for free on YouTube a few weeks ago and I second-monitored the whole thing. It holds up pretty well

The Torah is just a series of tasks written by Alex Horne

We’re clever creatures and I like that a religion recognizes that so deeply

The majority of Jews in New York are secular and therefore don’t have a mouthpiece like the major Orthodox groups. And it’s not even like orthodoxy is even “extreme”

A fraction of Jews are Orthodox and a fraction of those Orthodox Jews are extremists. So yeah, I wasn’t 100% correct but it’s not even in the same ballpark as what I replied to.

I’m not Jewish myself but it’s a really cool religion. Not that you asked, but my favorite rule bend in my time working with the Orthodox fellas was “shabbat mode” on his automation system. Using electricity is fine but they can’t use any sort of switch (flipping a switch = creating a tiny spark = creating flame, which is prohibited) so there was the obvious lighting automation BUT his wife requested an automated outlet in the kitchen and I asked by boss why…it was so she could plug in a hot plate before Sabbath and it would turn it on at 6 so she could serve a warm meal.

I really disliked that client but I loved that shit.

Bending the rules is very much a part of Orthodox Judaism for sure - it’s the only way to exist in today’s world. I’ve heard (from an Orthodox Jew I worked for) that priests talk to God and Rabbis argue. Questioning - or rather, being critical of - your faith is encourage.

But most jews in New York aren’t Orthodox. Most don’t even go to Temple weekly.

New York Jews are not extremists, though? They’re just normal people who happen to be Jewish

There was that Bluesky or mastodon post going around of writer I had never heard of telling people that now is the time for violence. Hundreds of upvotes in several communities.

Some random person with a pseudonym and a blog that writes like an angry 14 year old who’s never left the house.

I asked who this person was and why they were directing peaceful protests to become violent instead of doing it themselves and boy howdy did I get dog piled for it.

This is such an online comment, man. You could have taken 5 seconds to check if the election you clearly aren’t invested in happened yet but instead, you invented a result to get mad about

I bought a condo in 2009/2010 and the market is way crazier now. Back then it felt very…human? This time around, the whole process selfish and greedy with everyone trying to take advantage of you on both sides.

Oh also worth noting that housing is a different kind of beast in the way it “handles” supply and demand. If you can’t afford to buy, you can still rent. Banks will lend as much as possible because don’t care if prices get crazy - they benefit more than a single homeowner. And if they have to foreclose on you? Well, just add it to the bank portfolio and rent it out

Yeah, it’s just a weird period where things haven’t caught up and there’s nothing any authority could do to force it to catch up

That said, don’t expect prices to go down much. Outside of a total market crash, prices always rise

There’s not much to “fix” unfortunately. We just got out of a really hot real estate market with people routinely offering 50k over asking. Everyone who needed to move likey did so but sellers who were late to the party still expect to get those crazy offers.

But people don’t buy when there’s a recession on the way and these sellers are stuck. Soon, “investors” will realize they were late to the party and they’ll panic sell before it loses more value.

And because we’re in a recession, banks will buy the houses and rent will go up

Thanks for sharing!

Whoa whoa guys, you’ve got it all wrong. He’s just autistic and also he was just trying to say “my heart goes out to you”

You’ve asked women to let you nurse their babies? Many times, no less? I think they’re right to not give you the chance

I haven’t seen like any hilariouschaos users in awhile

Would have been cooler if she lived alone in a reasonably-sized and energy efficient house instead tbh
