They Need To Invent A Job Where I Don't Have To Wake Up Or Go To It

What are your thoughts on hairy men wearing crop tops? Personally I believe it would fix a lot of problems in society, especially if accompanied by much shorter shorts

my thoughts are that the mashiach will be a hairy man in a crop top and booty shorts.

There's this specific dread that happens when you keep Shabbat and Yom Tov in a way that means you don't get news until after the holiday. That pit in your stomach when you turn your phone back on, waiting to see what horrifying things happened while you were observing the sacred day. Who desecrated it by shedding blood? What new horrors await?

Sometimes you get lucky, and things are relatively quiet.

Other times, you come back to the news that at least 11 innocent Druze children were dismembered by a Hezbollah rocket while they were out playing soccer.

I remember the first time I really felt this effect, coming back from Shabbat to the news that eleven Jews had been massacred in Pittsburgh. This past year has been a prolonged and repeated version of that, and shows no signs of slowing down.

It almost makes you want to avoid going offline at all, except that then you never get a break. It makes it so hard to want to keep Shabbat, knowing what may be on the other end of it.

TIKKUNOLAMRESISTANCE GOT DEACTIVATED

accidentally hatecriming myself on a daily basis because somebody decided the l and k keys should be next to each other

got jumpscared looking at my calendar and realizing the high holy days are RIGHT THERE

humansofjudaism via instagram: This Torah was completed and dedicated on the one-year anniversary of October 7th, which last year coincided with the Jewish holiday of Simchat Torah, a celebration of both the completion and renewal of the Torah cycle.

The Torah cover is uniquely stitched with the names of all those lost over the past year, forming the outline of the State of Israel. The inner wrapping bears the names of the remaining 101 hostages.

Traditionally, the holiday is celebrated by taking our Torahs out from their ark for all to dance and rejoice.

As we prepare to observe this holiday once again, we reflect on the events of that day a year ago, pray for the immediate return of the hostages, and remind ourselves that we will dance again. Chag Sameach and Am Yisrael Chai - The Nation of Israel Lives!

the L and K should not be so close on the keyboard the amount of times I've accidentally typed a very antisemitic slur while trying to type "like" is absurd. the only thing saving me from this is autocorrect and that feels like a flimsy barrier at best

If I say "Israelis are human beings" and you hear "I think Palestinians are subhuman and should die," that's a problem you should work on.
