We'll screen the hilarious and brilliant Young Frankenstein which is one of the many depictions of Golem-like characters in horror film history.

Garbed in ritual tunic, an adept summons the elements to his command. Drawing on the archaic power availed to him by the Universe, he commands a lifeless being into an animated mute humanoid, who will do his bidding until the master orders him: “Cease!”

For the inaugural event we present the Yiddish folktale "The Finger" and screen Tim Burton's Corpse Bride which is based upon this Jewish story, yet never acknowledged. Discussion following the film.

It is a little known fact that most scary books and films that predate nuclear war feature these stories that cast Jewish folklore and traditions as something to be feared. In this series we will illuminate how Jewish stereotypes became the foothold for the genre of horror as we know it today.

Throughout history the stories, myths, and fears by and about Jewish customs and Jewish people have been used to create literature, film and art, often without the consent of, or input from, the people depicted.

I met another at the crossroads and felt compassion, mercy, empathy for their journey. I met myself at the crossroads, assumed the worst, flipped the bird, was a dick.

In my dream I met myself at the crossroads. There was conflict and crisis. I was intractable. I met myself at the crossroads and I refused to compromise or give an inch. I would not yield, dug in my heels, made a scene, owned the road, leaned on the horn.

Meanwhile, my adult kid reported actual Nazis in the club they were at last night, with SS logos and all... They reported it to the bouncer, who escorted the Nazis out. But, damn. Teach your kids to always report Nazis to the bouncer!

The system also pays out tax refunds, salaries for federal workers, and payments to government contractors. DOGE officials have been asking for access to the system since the election. Why they want it, and what they intend to do, is also not known.

He was appointed as acting treasury secretary by President Donald Trump until Scott Bessent was confirmed. Lebryk had a dispute with DOGE officials over access to payment systems that disburse trillions of dollars for government services, including Social Security and Medicare.

Meanwhile, the highest-ranking career Treasury official resigned today (Friday) over DOGE access to sensitive payment systems, including Social Security and Medicare. David A. Lebryk, who has served in nonpolitical roles at the Treasury Department since 1989, the Washington Post reported.

Apparently this is what was intended. For Musk to physically take over computers storing sensitive information, and locking the government agencies in charge of it OUT. What happens next is not known.

The email was very similar to one sent by Musk to Twitter employees after he took over. DOGE was originally created to "supply ideas" to Trump on "cutting governement waste". This was changed by Executive Order by Trump on his first day of office, to "upgrading IT services".

The trio are now in leadership positions in the office. Musk’s team also built the system that sent 2.3 million government employees an email last week offering buyouts to anyone who voluntarily leaves their job. That system did not exist before Trump took office, the Post noted.

The area can only be accessed with a special security badge or a security escort, an OPM employee said. That includes Anthony Armstrong, who helped Musk buy Twitter, according to the Post. Others include Brian Bjelde from SpaceX and Amanda Scales who worked at a Musk AI firm.

In the weeks since Trump took office, Musk has moved to take control of the office, according to the Post. He visited the office on Friday and put several of his longtime allies in key positions. Musk had sofa beds brought into the OPM office to ensure his personal team could work non-stop.

The Office of Personnel Management is a nonpartisan agency that manages the federal workforce, and would typically be consulted ahead of significant personnel changes. They were not informed of this proposal, people familiar with the situation told The Washington Post.

Since Trump's firing of gov Inspectors General, there is NO oversight of either Trump OR Musk. One key database, the OPM officials cited, is Enterprise Human Resources Integration, which has "all of the birthdates, SSN, appraisals, home addresses, pay grades & lengths of service of gov workers."
