Apocalypse aesthetic for @kinda-cursed

They have increased their goal several times and exceeded it within hours. HOURS!!

Here is their latest update

They’re asking you to please donate to their other fund, to help the victims of the shooting in Kentucky. These people are beyond amazing. They give me hope for the future and restore my faith in humanity.

Here is the fund for the synagogue

Here is the fund for the victims in Kentucky

They haven’t reached their goal with this one yet. If you’re feeling compelled to donate, please donate to the Kentucky fund. Because of everything else going on, it hasn’t gotten nearly as much attention. But these two peoples lives were just as important. They were just as loved and they will be just as missed.

And because they haven’t gotten as much attention and their stories aren’t in the news as much, here’s their story. From the fund raiser.

Please pass this around. If you can’t donate, someone who sees your reblog might.

Keep up the great work!!

PS: the fund for the Tree Of Life victims has raised an additional $11k in the past two and half hours as well. How amazing is that ?!

Holocaust deniers are violent antisemites, no exceptions. They are dangerous and do not deserve a platform to speak.

Jewish people cannot be nazis, no matter how much you disagree with them. Ben Shapiro is a piece of transphobic racist shit, but he’s not and will never be a Nazi.

Trump and many people in his cabinet have repeatedly used antisemitic dog whistles, most recently calling himself a nationalist.

We. Are not. All. White. Stop being dicks to Jewish people of color.

And we’re not all ashkenazi!!! Google is your friend if you don’t know what that means.

Don’t do that “Nazi puncher” bullshit if you don’t actively uplift and defend Jewish people. Punching nazis is a great thing but you need to uplift and support jews at the same time.

Stop pinning Israeli war crimes on random Jewish people. And stop demanding we tell you our opinions on Israel before you treat us with basic human decency.

GOY IS NOT A SLUR

Judaism is an ETHNORELIGION. I am both religiously AND ethnically Jewish. It’s not that hard to understand.

Stop tone policing us

'Goyim’….I mean really….

And as a white person, if a black person said “hey crackers” and then went on to talk about racism and the rate at which black people are murdered by police, I would shut my mouth and fucking listen, because innocent black people’s lives are more fucking important than white peoples feelings.

It’s World Mental Health Day! (October 10th.) So I thought it might be useful to compile mental health resources for the Jewish community into one post. If you know of any that aren’t listed, please feel free to add them.

RELIEF – connects/refers Jewish people to therapists and other mental health resources (focuses mainly on the frum community)

Elijah’s Journey - suicide prevention for the Jewish community (Facebook page)

The Aleph Institute – provides spiritual support for Jews in institutional environments such as prison, health facilities, and rehab

No Shame On U – aims to de-stigmatize mental illness by providing comprehensive education

OHEL - comprehensive services for those facing mental health issues, with professionals fluent in English, Yiddish, and Hebrew

Yad Rachel - for mothers facing postpartum depression, also helps educate family and health providers

Shema Koli - support for victims of abuse

Frum Support Forums - for mental and physical health

(NY) The Jewish Board - provides services for a number of things, including crisis support, supportive housing, and mental health services.

Torah and the Twelve Steps - spiritual-based rehab for those recovering from substance abuse

(UK) Jewish Helpline -  0800 652 9249

(Mexico) Jewish Crisis Line -  1118

(The two following aren’t specifically mental health resources, but I still felt they were important to add.)

A list of Jewish LGBT+ organizations

Keshet - Jewish LGBT+ educational resources

And on the other side of things, it is SO easy for goyim to disguise antisemitism as anti Zionism. Goyim will ask upon meeting me what I think of Israel as a way to tell if I’m a good jew or a bad jew. I see this on the left so often. It’s sickening.
