HaSatan in Gematria = 364. The Satan is the angel who accuses people of any mistakes they may have made! What is the one day off the Satan has every year?

Of course it is Yom Kippur! Gmar Chatimah Tovah!

The @MussarCenter sending a cold dm that begins “Be warned” is extremely on brand.

Tanchum Gershon Portnoy z”l, a Five Towns resident who composed the beloved “Eitz Chaim Hi” niggun, was niftar at 75. Composed in 1975, the niggun has uplifted Yidden for 50 years and is widely sung when returning the Sefer Torah to the Aron Kodesh. Yehi zichro boruch.

A riddle from our Rosh HaShanah seder. Some people put a pie on the table as a siman, a food whose name hints at a wish for the year. Why pie? Hint: pie in Hebrew letters is פַּאי, pei, alef, yud. Now think of a pasuk we say every day in davening. Answer at 1.

Answer: פַּאי, pei alef yud, the first letters of פּוֹתֵחַ אֶת יָדֶךָ וּמַשְׂבִּיעַ לְכָל חַי רָצוֹן. You open Your hand and satisfy every living thing. Ashrei, every day.

There’s a creature far taller than mountains or trees. It’s a bird, and it’s huge: We call it the Ziz. It stands in the ocean, which doesn't reach its knees, As its wings cast long shadows onto the seas. When it does decide to stretch out and fly, It’s as if a big cloud has covered the sky, So if you find yourself in shade, it’s the one. Think, “The Ziz just took flight and blocked out the sun.” #CreaturesOfTheTorah

Doom scroller sounds like a good name for a litvish soifer

People would probably appreciate seeing how I use AI in my classroom and to improve my executive functioning as a teacher.

I had some extra AI budget last week, so I had @claudeai Fable design me a dashboard. This is basically trivial to make and very useful! The border is a vision board. You attract what you see! My wife wants an in-unit washer/dryer, and there's a Rav in Lakewood who wants me to have a Tesla. Amen! Should I get people to sponsor my dashboard? 😂@islandjew

A friend of mine told me that his uncle used to say he was "going up" to the basement. Why? Because a Yid never goes down!
