  3. When are you gonna visit Lithuania? We need you to show us how hard (or easy for you) it is to learn Lithuanian! Linguistically it's very interesting. Although, is it very likely that your ancestors actually spoke much Lithuanian? I would love to know the answer to that... They probably spoke Polish and Russian in addition to Yiddish, maybe even some German... Lithuanian was the language of the small rural villages at that time, and of course it wasn't "Lithuanian" as we know now, it was a whole bunch of related dialects. Levinas said that the only time he ever heard Lithuanian spoken was in the kitchen 😂 Anyway, come visit Lithuania! It's lovely in May and June, or September. There's a decent orthodox community still in Vilnius.

  8. I have far worse ear wax buildup than Xiaoma. This is not the way to clean it. Go see a nurse and have them clean out your ears with water. Its safe and it works.

  10. Underground train systems are a great idea and work well in many places. It's a screwed up New York / San Francisco / corrupt thing. I'm a Kiwi, we are mostly deluded liberal morons nowadays.

  15. Ari, you should be regularly doing Yoga to get these stretches yourself. It's a healthier process because you are developing all the other muscles to do these things.

  16. In general, yes, and all that happened to me too (except for the 🤑), but pandemic stress and compensation/comfort eating is real. I ballooned, I'm glad for this inspiration and reminder about what works.
