I love the byline in the description, that's one of my favorite Jewish jokes. The experience you mentioned in the video ("wait, what was the punchline?") is one I've had as well, whenever I try to quote something from the Big Book of Jewish Humor.

when I first saw the "controversy" over Bad Bunny and people saying "I want an All-American halftime show!" I was like huh, I really thought he was Puerto Rican, but they're saying he's not American... I guess he's like Cuban or something? but that's really on me for assuming they wouldn't be racist
Actually y'know, fuck my doomerism.

2. The primary מצוה of the קרבן הודייה is the offering-up of a תרנגול הודו. The rabbis derive this from the verse הודו ליי כי טוב.
A flyer about Mike Lawler (R-NY) that is cleverly against him. Begins "Congressman Lawler does not 'Love Hitler' or joke about gas chambers." Goes on to assert that he does not say or endorse many other horrible things that were said by NY's Young Republicans in their group chat from a short while ago.

I really noticed that this year. yitzchak says like, nothing at all? between his birth and his passing on of the covenant besides "father? where's the sheep?"
My cantor asked me a month or 2 before my B mitzvah "hey, you've got your haftarah down pretty well, you wanna read from a sefer haftarah?" and I was like "idk sure ig this is normal", and now whenever I bring it up people are either "huh weird that's really uncommon" or "I didn't know those exist"
34) The Talmud doesn't have six genders. It has men and five kinds of deformed men, the most common of which is the wo- variety of men.
This does not mean that non-binary gender identities are invalid, of course. Just that the Talmud isn't a particularly useful source to justify their validity
"The agreement places no restrictions on our transgender community."
Except whether they can play sports, where they can use the bathroom or locker room, what kind of housing they can live in, and what healthcare they can receive.

Hebrew calligraphy in dark green stretches in lines across the image. Negative space makes room for a simple representation of an inflatable frog costume with a blue bandana. That shape consists of the English translation of the Hebrew, in a lighter green, and in much smaller text. -- Famously, the Egyptian tyrant causes Egypt to be overrun with frogs because he refuses to free the Hebrew people, but there are additional details that make this a fun one to ponder. For one, the Hebrew says "the frog came up" - ONE frog - even though the rest of the time it says "frogs." So there are a few explanations rabbis have come up with to explain this. One is that a single frog multiplied to create swarms. A more creative explanation is that there was a singular giant frog who traveled and brought destruction. Jewish social media was sharing videos of the Portland Frog protester with the caption, "One Big Frog! One Big Frog!" Of course the frog protesters did multiply, and many were seen in crowds all over the world on "No Kings" Day. This calligraphic work takes the verses addressing the frog plague and combines them to form a simple rendering of the Portland Frog protester. The frog figure itself is made up of the English translations of the Hebrew around it. At the bottom left my signature is in the shape of a lily pad.
"Tzefardea Tzedek" (Frog of Righteousness)
As soon as the Portland Frog became a meme, Jewish social media blew up with jokes about the 2nd Passover plague - tzefarde'a (frogs) - and the Rabbinical commentary around it. I knew I had to make a calligraphy piece encompassing all of it. (more in alt.)

The first time Charlie Chaplin used his voice in a film, he wielded it to forcefully condemn the rising forces of fascism around the globe.
Will we listen to his words today?
It means treating housing as essential infrastructure, making time a basic right, and dismantling systems that force people to depend on landlords, bosses, or distant politicians just to survive.
