A Fierce And Unrelenting Joy

Folklore collection I was reading casually dropped “the prophet Elijah is not really a Man, he belongs to a non-gendered category of folkloric figures” which I guess is why he acts like a baba yaga sometimes but also lmao

Cancelling plans is ok. Staying home to cook is ok. Hiding from the Romans in a cave for 12 years is ok. Taking off your clothes and covering yourself in sand to preserve them for Torah study is ok. Smiting people with your eyes for forsaking eternal life is ok. Do what you need to cope.

I see what you're saying but the smiting people with your eyes part was very much not okay. Back into the cave for you

a heatwave is a type of ancient curse

I love my people, and seeing people with visceral hatred for the Jewish people use Jewish lineage as a shield from criticism as they actively work to build hate for Jews, is about the most disgusting behaviour I see.

Actually, I'm going to make this shareable. Not tiptoeing around people who make it their very obvious business to accelerate Antisemitic hatreds and calling it out for what it is is Leto’eles... in the public good.

Exactly! Jvp is actively telling non Jews to pose as Jews online

If it looks like astroturf, walks like astroturf, talks like astroturf....

ykno i think there is occasionally a tendency to think of the true self as the one u wear when u are alone and maybe tired of interacting with people ie the ghost wearing the mask but then, like, idk, why not think of the self that interacts with ppl and is very jazzed about it as the true self, even if its not something u are all the time. my point is mostly that maybe we should conceptualize ourselves by our best moments not our most spoonless.
