Many things are true. Steve Ditko did struggle socially. Did compartmentalize his life. AND had a close family & friendships spanning decades & replied to every fan letter & channelled his emotions into his pen & is Peter Parker. #Longreads @Longreads rollingstone.com/culture/cul…

I get so geeked for eruvim, and I drive on Shabbos, so carrying isn't a concern for me. As someone who doesn't live in Manhattan, I'm more concerned with the community aspect.

My favorite @jewishinsider and @eJPhil stories are the ones that are niche beyond belief. @jaydeitcher's piece today about the discontinuation of Sunkist enters the canon.

Who among us hasn't whipped one of these as hard as we can at our friend's faces (out of love)?
They had the perfect softness to pelt at 13 year olds. You don't know what you got till it's gone. My latest in @eJPhil

Thank you @jaydeitcher and @eJPhil for this lovely writeup of Talmud Daily!
To offer an easy intro to the central text of Rabbinic law, Rabbi @DBashIdeas, the founder of @18_forty, recently launched Talmud Daily, a free 40-week, daily video breakdown of the Talmud, which he says he’s treating like a tour through a theme park.

Long before @DBashIdeas founded @18_forty, he was a legend in the Wizard Magazine letter pages. For those not in the know, that was the top comic-book magazine, which also helped crash the industry in the '90s. My latest in @eJPhil

For folks who left the Haredi community, the High Holy Days can symbolize both freedom and loneliness.
Footsteps helps them cultivate community and create their own traditions, often a blending of the new and the old. My latest in @eJPhil

After Oct. 7, Mothers Against College Antisemitism quickly became a controversial force in the Jewish world. But for the past nine-months, the group has been engulfed in infighting. What could have been done different? My latest in @eJPhil

My first @jewishinsider byline!!!! 😄😆😁
The results showed that, on average, Jewish communal organizations, including Jewish community centers, synagogues, schools, summer camps and nonprofits, spend roughly $225,000 on security per institution.

10 years ago, Obama was in office, Pokemon Go was all the rage and very little funding went into Jewish day schools. Here's how the day school movement became a focus of philanthropic giving throughout the Jewish world. In @eJPhil

Saw, @BrianRDJames is beefing with journos today. Oh, you didn't know, I happen to be one! Let me in on the dumpster match, baby. @BrianRDJames, I think your tweets only get 4 stars! Not even worth an AEW belt! Take that, Roadduggie.

I'm just killing it this week. This won't make sense to anyone other than my coworkers, but this is my first piece I've posted directly onto the @eJPhil site. Very exciting. Also, I always love speaking with @rabbibenberger.

Mazal tov to @GSDeutch, whose star I've always wanted to emulate. Also, I haven't gotten a hat!!!!
Hello hello, some personal news:
Today is my last day at @jewishinsider.
I'm excited for a new opportunity (I'll share more soon!), but also very emotional to leave a job that I love — where I've gotten to cover issues I really care about. I know that's rare.
Some thoughts⬇️
