  1. This time of year, the parshaot get annoyingly long (even on the triennial cycle). So if you're a ba'al koreh בעל קורא, as I was yesterday, you've got some work to do.

    My tikkun is literally falling apart (the binding is torn, pages threatening to fall out) so I was looking for an online alternative for the first time. . . and I discovered: tikkun.io

    Honestly the best #UX i've experienced with any #tikkun, online or off. The creator clearly knows what the experience of preparing to read a parasha is like. The best part is that you never take your eyes off what you're reading: if you need a reminder about the trop for a given word, you just touch the shift key to see it rendered in place with the vowels, accents, and trop.

    Plus, with my eyes not what they used to be, I appreciate the ability to zoom in, and the high-contract display.

    AND it's open source and written in Typescript!

    ✨ The more you know. . .

  2. “Tikkun broke ground as a magazine that aimed to tie Jewish spirituality to progressive politics. It became a locus for spiritual leaders of many faiths to learn from and with Jewish tradition.” #Tikkun #MichaelLerner #RabbiMichaelLerner #Judaism #Religion #Spirituality #Justice forward.com/opinion/649092/wit
