@TheTonightSho Im Not Like Other Jews ™

@rabbimaayan Yes, also because when I try to make an intentional pun people just assume I don’t know how to spell

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

@rabbimaayan Never thought about this! Interesting.

Just did my first prenup session with a couple since returning from maternity leave.
And while pumping!

“Yamim Nora’im” really takes on a new meaning this year.

If a chick is standing with one leg and a half in a dovecote on the Lebanese border, and another leg and a half in a dovecote in Israel, what is the halakha of this three-legged chick?

[Iranian Armed Forces Comm @ArmedForcesIR09]

In the past, the enemy was standing on one leg and a half on the Lebanese border, and today the threat of Hezbollah and Iran has made all of Israel stand on one leg and a half.

@BacovcinAkiva @JYuter Did the toddler hack your account?

@noahroth @benwaxman @amcaplan @RabbiGoldberg Rivkah also talks about this story here:

@benwaxman @amcaplan @noahroth @RabbiGoldberg A relatively recent story about a woman and a beit din stumped by a chalitza situation in which the BIL was missing a foot:

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

2/ She didn't know what halitza was, but she understood that without it, she could not remarry. She had not been in contact with her former BIL. After she located him, she learned that he had diabetes, his foot had been amputated and he was on dialysis.

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

@benwaxman @amcaplan @noahroth @RabbiGoldberg Apparently before this rav came along, the beit din had stopped performing chalitza ceremonies if the man didn’t use his right foot as his dominant foot

In honor of this momentous occasion, I’ll be putting on a shirt without spit-up on it and performing an opening piece 🎤

So come with your snapping fingers ready 🫰 🫰 🫰

Pronouncing “popsicles” like the name of a Greek philosopher

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

@rabbilaufer Omg 😂

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

The 3yo is currently obsessed with the song “Flash” by Queen but he pronounces it “flesh” and hearing him demand “I WANT FLESH” is somewhat disturbing

[Rachel Stomel 🎗️ @RStomel]

Every time it ends he goes “MORE FLESH”

@ahochster @HannahLebovits Do people reading that understand that postpartum hemorrhaging is the number 1 cause of maternal death in the world? Like, it’s not just a minor medical complication!

Who called it a dietician and not a snacktation consultant
