The poll asks about the FIRST thing I’d do, so the answer is definitely to loop back for some extra yom tov. I need some rest to prepare for any of the others.

After that, if you’re looking for company on the Beit HaMikdash excursion, I’d love to join.

I wanna call this the 'Ineffable niblings' AU. Little Ash and Uriel from 'When the angels left the old country' would have so much to talk about with the ineffables! Thought I'd do a little crossover for passover, featuring an orange on a seder plate because I love the idea.

Chag Pesach Sameach!

22% of you were correct, incidentally. Though the notes have slowed to a periodic trickle.

Being a long time Neil fangirl, when Crowley showed up in heaven and gave his little spiel about bees, I knew right away it was a reference to this line in the book -

Sometimes human beings are very much like bees. Bees are fiercely protective of their hive, provided you are outside it. Once you're in, the workers sort of assume that it must have been cleared by management and take no notice; various freeloading insects have evolved a mellifluous existence because of this very fact.

In the book, it is a reference to the Horsepeople making their way into the Tadfield Airbase to fuck shit up. But. BUT. I keep thinking about this. See, the Horsepeople didn't sneak in. Yes, they wore a disguise, but they literally rolled right up to the front gate and flashed their fake badges with their fancy high ranking titles and were granted access freely.

That isn't what Crowley did - he slunk in with his slutty little disguise and bouncy tip toed past everyone.

But you know who did just walk up to the proverbial gates of heaven with his shiny new title and waltzed right in?

Challenge: Send someone a nice ask today.

You can do it on anon or off. You can send to one person, or multiple. You can choose a mutual you talk to regularly, or someone you have long admired from afar, or someone who seems to be going through a rough patch. You can write a lengthy, detailed paragraph about how much you appreciate them, or a quick encouraging well-wish for their week.

It'll improve their day, and it may be just the smile they've been needing. It may well improve your mood too, through vicarious happiness or the very act of channeling your kind instincts into kind practice.

Share the kindness. One, two, three... go!

#in honor of the abundance of hate asks going around #I think it’s the perfect time to increase the number of kind asks going around #let’s do it

This is a blog meant to be a safe positive space for the Jewish community. So I want you to help decide the focus of this blog.

This is more of a general post to gauge interest:

Who would be interested in contributing to a multi-fandom Jewish Zine?

So like Am Yisrael Chai and all that, don't get me wrong I'm so grateful for the superhuman resilience of Israelis (and really the whole Jewish people) because it's necessary

but damn, like

Could it just, for once, not be?

"everybody hates me" factoid actually just a statistical error. The average person doesn't hate you, especially not your friends. You, a person who sits in your room experiencing self loathing every day, are an outlier adn should not have been counted.

Okay so you know how a lot of us have been feeling abandoned and hated by both left and right sides of the political spectrum (especially since October 7th, but this has been a long time coming in my opinion)?

Well I've struggled with what to call myself, because I'm not a centrist either. I'm not even really a "third/middle path" person. Instead, much like with existing gender frameworks, I don't find myself on any two-dimensional map at all. So I would like to propose another option for anyone else stuck in this quandary:

Let's take our politics into three-dimensional space, with constructive compassion as our North Star and our feet firmly planted on the path of pragmatic problem-solving.

That is to say - we might have to veer left or veer right, move forward or even turn around, but the most important thing is to get where we're going on the road to justice in a way that is both practical and compassionate to all people, all living things, and the earth.

(I still have no idea what to call this, though.)

unironically many people would benefit from learning about the philosophies around Yetzer Hara and Yetzer Tov and the need for balance between them because this whole ridiculous argument about whether or not its okay to take a break/ step away from discourse is just. that argument. again.

don't reinvent the wheel.

you cannot afford to desist from the work but you alone can't complete it. take a break and come back to it.

ffs.
