Leave it to the crunchy store to have the only wool safe detergent I've found in a brick and mortar establishment...

It's unsettling... Went from the relative calm 2 weeks ago to lockdowns reminiscent of height of the pandemic, with added sirens, to almost instantly back to relative calm, where everything is mostly back open... And yet, it feels like there are no people not traffic anywhere...

DS9 aunties. 💚

It's our 14 year anniversary... Just saw the closing show of Amélie in Jerusalem... Trying to find something quick to eat after the show... Apparently Thursday is bar night here... This whole concept is kind of foreign to me... I like it... Maybe we'll just come here some random Thursday...

#parentingiswhen the 10 year old kid asks "Why do people use 'ZzzzzZzzz' to indicate people sleeping 💤?" And then one responds: "Go ahead, pick another letter to make the snoring sound... Try it..." To which they respond, "Sounds more like 'F'..." Like, what are we even doing here, people?

#parentingiswhen at least one kid likes the lentil soup...

My oldest wanted me to watch the latest episode (5) of The Amazing Digital Circus... That was... Certainly an episode...

I just binged the 3 Body Problem on Netflix... I didn't realize it would end on a cliffhanger... Next season won't start before 2026... Ugh...

Rumors have it that Dennis Schröder might get poached from my #Pistons...

So far so good... No sirens... Kids went to school... Still skeptical this can persist... But hopeful...

Off season is already wild... Poole for McCollum... #nba www.espn.com/nba/story/_/...

Apparently there actually is a ceasefire? It is considered serious enough that school is scheduled for tomorrow... I'm... Skeptical...

I can't articulate why but Kevin Durant getting traded right before game 7 instead of a couple days later hurts his legacy

YouTube algorithm just served up this gem of a video on home clothes dryers, comparing the cost, repairability & sustainability of the 3 most common types: 💨Vented 💨Condensor 💨Heat pump youtu.be/xn03N3b0-lE?...

I'm exhausted. But I am alive. I am safe. Not everyone can say that. 5 people died in Be'er Sheva that were in their safe room, but took a direct hit from a ballistic missile. These safe rooms are amazing protection. But they were never designed to take direct hits. בד"ה

Spoke too soon... Time for round 4...

40 plus appreciation post. reskeet with a pic if you're on the right side of 40...

Crap, here we go again... 3rd time this morning

Air raid sirens... Back in the mamad... Lots of booms... 4 or 5 so far... 🚀🚨

Always acceptable if you do it calmly. 😉🖖

What's a poster you had in your room growing up?

My mind is absolutely blown by these stellar halos nearby NGC 4364! Left: DESI Legacy Imaging Surveys (DR10) Right: Newly released @vrubinobs.bsky.social imaging!!! #AstroSci 🧪🔭

There are 2 types of athletes: Those whose primary goal is to win, and those whose primary goal is to look cool. I prefer the former to the latter. Goal orientation is a personality type, I suppose.
