The Jewish samurai swiftly picks up the shamash then places it back down in one smooth motion

two seconds later the rest of the candles on the menorah all ignite in a clean line

Shalom everybody:

I want to share this with you:

The anti-Semitism of the neighbors became more noticeable now that we are in Hanukkah... (we are new here, and we live in a non-Jewish neighborhood, since in our city the community is less concentrated). So, as halacha says, we lit the candles near a window facing the street so they would be visible. I made posters...

Then a neighbor began to tell the children that those lights are witchcraft and (other horrible things that I don't even want to write). Imagine our anger...After that, those same children asked about the candles and we told them about G-d's miracles that happened on Chanukah.

All this gives us strength, Hashem's light is above all darkness of gossip and He fights for us!

Happy Chanukah from Argentina

CW: antisemitism mention.

Something I can’t stop thinking about lately is a talk that my spouse and I had back on December 18th, the first night of Chanukkah...you see, we had two Chanukkiah, or Chanukkah Menorah - the lamps with the eight candles plus the one helper candle that you light. You’re supposed to have one per person in your household. And you’re supposed to put at least one in the window where the most people can see it if you can. It IS “The Festival of Lights” after all, right?

The issue that we had, though, was how visibly Jewish did we want to appear to the public? Because we had to consider the high rate of antisemitic hate crimes in the area. We could put one in the window facing the apartment courtyard…which we did do for the first 2 nights. But then not a whole lot of people would see it.

So on the third night, we decided to switch it to our main front window that faces the street. We came to the conclusion that it would be okay since our building in particular has security cameras outside the building. And because we just didn’t want to have that feeling of living in fear.

I think what really was the deciding factor was when we went out to go get the mail earlier that evening together and we looked up and saw our neighbors Christmas tree in their window. And we realized that they don’t have to worry about this kind of thing. Not even a little bit.

To some people it might seem silly - a tiny little Chanukkiah in the window of an apartment window slowly gaining a light over the course of eight days. But to those who know and who understand the real stories and history of Chanukkah…those lights mean so much more. Those lights mean resilience. They mean hope in the darkness.

Latka frying can be scary [for Nadja]

Charmaine did her hair because she's unfortunate flammable lol

Nandor had his braided too. They come over after Sean and Charmaine light the menorah. Mostly because they're still waking up.

Sadly, I didn't think to do this in time for Eponaliâ, Sonnassodion (the Winter Solstice), and the beginning of Hanukkah, and it's early for some of these, but:

Hanukkah PSA for reptile owners!

Hanukkah is almost upon us (woohoo!), so I wanted to give a quick reminder to all my fellow Jewish reptile keepers to avoid lighting candles in the same room as a reptile!

Even the smoke from small Hanukkah candles can be very dangerous for reptiles, especially hatchlings and juveniles. Reptiles can't cough, so any smoke they breathe in stays in their lungs and can cause respiratory illness very quickly. It's less dangerous on the first night when you've only got two candles going, but by night eight, it can be a recipe for disaster! This is true if you have an oil-based chanukkiah, too!

To keep your pet reptiles safe and healthy, make sure you always light your chanukkiah in another part of the house, and keep your reptiles out of the room while your Hanukkah candles are burning.
