Lol, that is awesome.

 There would be a wider selection of shoes in the popular styles within that community than a standard store that has styles that appeal to the broader population. For instance, our kids will each have a pair of "Shabbos shoes" - essentially dress shoes, which aren't nearly as popular outside of the Jewish community. So a "Jewish" shoe store will have a wider selection of kids dress shoes.

Another explanation of what a Jewish shoe store is is the signs, like the one I saw the other day in the clearance section, "No returns. No refunds. No exchanges. Even if your mother doesn't like it."

In this four-part lecture series, travel writer Bani Amor will guide us through presentations on queering colonial cartography and our historical relationships to place, the enduring legacy of human zoos in travel media and tourism, the objectification of womxn and land in travel culture, and how travel (and anti-travel) can bridge international solidarity movements.

Can someone please
a. translate to English, and
b. enlighten me as to which dunderheads pay actual money for this "course"

Or is this whole thing just a practical joke.

"decolonize" - Remove colonialist influence from.

The rest of that paragraph - Translation error.

"queering" - Looking at as if it is meant to be non-heterosexual.

"historical relationships to place" - No idea.

"the enduring legacy of human zoos in travel media and tourism" - Human zoos were a thing you can look up.

"the objectification of womxn and land in travel culture" - I think that's understandable
(except for the part where land actually is an object).

"how travel can bridge international solidarity movements" - Likewise.

"anti-travel" - Never heard of it.

I'm pretty sure someone posted the "Orthodoxed" poster somewhere on this board. Does anyone here remember where?

What do tie racks and ties have to do with each other?

Both usually are gifts one gets from their wife.

Sure, they just usually never come off.

Ask Endimem

Or the guy from the crockpot show

Someone sent me this in private
https://www.costco.com/koda-46%e2%80%9d-led-indoor-and-outdoor-shop-light-with-motion-sensor%2c-2-pack.product.100424191.html
its not linky, arrives on YT
(i would still order it if it arrives before YT)

does you have it? can motion sensor be turned off?
the second review on the site:

Great Product that did not work for me.
I purchased these fixtures for my garage. As far as the fixtures go they produce a very bright light. Made a great difference in my garage. The only problem I have had with fixtures has to do with the motion detection sensor uses microwave technology. In my case the fixtures in the garage are next to wall of my family room. The motion detector can 'see' through walls. With the fixtures set to the lowest sensitivity the range is about 12'. The fixtures are 4' from the nearest wall. So the motion detector can 'see' 8' into the family room. So I have stopped using the motion detector feature and use the fixtures as manual. In the end I have some very expensive manual fixtures.

the second review on the site:
ordered, don't know why he writes its expensive, from amazon it seems that its linky and has a remote where you can turn the motion sensor on and off, only hope is that it remembers previous setting, to keep it always on and control with a smart switch, will see

You can select “OFF” if you want to have the lighting fixture turned ON at all times. By
selecting this mode, the Ambient Light Sensor function will be disabled.

NOTE: The sensor can detect movement through walls and doors.

Is the Sefer Torah completely handwritten. The reason I ask is I seen a video of one destroyed in the recent flooding and it was so neat it look as if it was printed by a machine.
