it’s blatantly clear that the IL gov in no way cares about their own citizens and certainly less Jews as a whole but the total proportion of my generation of young Jews in the entire world literally being suited up for cannon fodder right now makes me ill. As much as both antisemites and the government of IL want to cast themselves as a global superpower and the strongest army on earth they are not, they’re still a relatively very small middle eastern country that’s part of a very very small ethnic group and going to war right now has a mass potential to seriously cut into our total population in ways that will impact us for a long long time. They are not the US. Proportionally this cannot be like the Vietnam war or the Iraq war. Like I’ve grown up with the Charedim being given a blank slate cause Jewish babies all my life and now we’re willing to throw a mass number of 18-40 year old Jews into the fire before they ever have a chance to become parents and there’s really nothing less in the interest of l’dor v’dor. As a diaspora Jew with a community in many ways more tied to IL than the US I’ve gotten the full guilt trip about not having to go get drafted in this war and I don’t support it in any way, but there’s still that deep feeling of maybe my future wife will die in this war. Maybe my future best friend or chavrusa will die in this war. Maybe the future father of my children will die in this war and I’ll never have my children. If we keep walking on to hell this may echo down the generations.

#People from countries without a draft can’t get the systemic horror of the draft #Nor U.S. Americans in the core like. In no way do I support IL as I hope is made damn clear #But the margins for destruction are infinitely smaller than the US #That’s why this is playing out so differently #more of any our people died on any one day since the Shoah and now they’ve suited up 360 #thousand reservists….: I obviously oppose the military + gov as structures but I don’t want people to die based on the nation they were bor #Into and that includes soldiers facing a mandatory draft

Oh god anon coming in with the hardest possible quedtion first thing!!! Hrmmm, in no particular order:

1. The Jasmine Throne by Tasha Suri

A priestess of an outlawed religion (Priya) has to help an exiled princess (Malini) find her brother (rhaegar) in order to a) topple malini's evil older brother, in exchange for which her people will stop being persecuted (reader they fall in love)

2. Kill Anything That Moves: The Real American War in Vietnam by Nick Turse

Investigative piece regarding american atrocities during the Vietnam War.

3. When the Angels Left the Old Country by Sacha Lamb (@kuttithevangu on tumblr, go follow it)

I said no particular order but actually its this one. This is the best one. Ive been reading it since it was first posted on tumblr ages ago and it was wonderful then and even better now.

An angel and a demon who have been chavrusas for centuries leave their shtetl to follow their young people to America. On their journey, they end up helping one of those very young people.

I cant actually describe it in a way that does it justice so just. GO read it. And then go read the rest of Lamb's works.

4. The Iliad, Emily Wilson translation

YOU GUYS ITS SO GOOD, I WANT TO KISS WILSON ON THE MOUTH

5. Okay this one is going to lose me credibility bc i am on the Pretentious Book Readers Website but like

Fourth Wing by Rebecca Yarros ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Violet is a girl with EDS who comes from a long line of dragon riders and is thus pressured to join Dragon Military School. Through sheer determination and her smarts, she succesfully manages to complete her first year, falling in love with the son of the man who killed her brother.

My wife and I originally read this book bc they ALSO have EDS, and hey! Exciting! We legitimately had a blast and have been struggling to get hold of the second book since it came out.

Thanks, anon! <3

In the interest of procrastination - I should be calling students' parents to introduce myself at the beginning of the school year; or alternatively clearing up supper

Here's Blaze's birth story

I had been having prodromal-type labor on and off for a week already. The 8th grade yearbook had to be in at the printer by 5pm Friday in order to have it at graduation. (I was also giving a math final that coming Tuesday that I hadn't made up yet.) So Thursday night, after I put the kids to bed, I sat down with my graphics laptop to work.

Of course, I was having random contractions. Ranging from 2 to 12 minutes apart, and pretty ignorable. Like maybe had to stop working for a couple of seconds at the peak.

At about 10:35pm, I called my husband home from night seder because I had a couple of contractions in a row that I couldn't ignore. His yeshiva is about a 40 minute drive away, so by the time he let his chavrusas know he was leaving and got home, it was around 11:30.

He watched me work for a bit, started putting up the cholent and cleaning up for Shabbos. After a bunch of contractions in a row that I couldn't sit through - I had to stand up and pace and breathe through them - he convinced me to call my midwife. I agreed to stop working and get into a warm bath and call her at about midnight.

(I still wasn't convinced that I was having the baby that night so I didn't put away my graphics stuff - just closed the laptop and stacked it on my tablet and pushed it to the back of the table.)

Anyway, I went upstairs and filled the bath, and called the midwife as I was getting in, around 12:20. She left to come to us.

Around 1:10am, my husband noticed the same car drive past our house for the second time so he went out to flag her down and point out that she could park in our driveway. She came up to my bathroom at 1:25ish.

I gave birth at 1:49am. I was mildly in denial that the baby was arriving right then - I thought I had another ten minutes at least - so I was not in the best position. That, coupled with the fact that he was facing posterior (and possibly a little broader than my others), meant that his shoulders got stuck for a second. I think. At least, it's the only one of my kids that I remember actively pushing to get the shoulders out.

I bled a lot right away so I couldn't sit and relax in the water for a bit like I did at my other waterbirths. The midwife and her assistant helped me out on to the toilet, and after some discussion, we decided I needed an IM pitocin shot, so that happened. Placenta took its merry time to come down, too, but nothing very crazy.

Baby was 7lb 14.8oz and 20.25" long.

Switching midwifery practices for this birth was the right choice. Even though I miss (most of) my old midwives, and this birth was not as smooth as past ones (see: stuck shoulders, IM pitocin), I felt much better about this one than the last.

With Chuck, I felt like the midwife was manipulating me to agree to interventions that may not have been necessary (but I can't know because of what she did at the time). She's the one I don't miss.

vampire concept but hes not a sexy thirtysomething aristocrat or anything hes just like a first century rabbi who got jumped by one of those roman vampires everyone loves to write about (me too girl me too)

like listen ok hes old hes cranky hes been 25 or 40 or 73 for two millennia and most importantly he himself is contemporary with the beginning of christianity wherefore its iconography has no awesome power over him hes just honour bound to not engage with it

as a consequence of being a walking corpse he has not touched another living being in centuries for fear of contaminating it with the taint of death that lingers about him, since there is no longer a temple and he is in a position to give more of a damn than most of us

or alternatively he is technically alive and has been practicing medicine and eating leeches this entire time but also he is a fuckoff enormous bird or dog or whatever sometimes and all of this makes it very difficult to get married you know?

and basically he has seen so many lives and so much change and been so many people and animals that his personal theology looks nothing like what he grew up with but also doesnt really neatly fit into what judaism is now where he lives (or doesn't live but sort of meanders)

but also he is fully aware that he is (to his knowledge) the only creature in the Entire World with Real Semikha, or at least an ordination he himself respects, and he is endlessly up his own ass about it

because why wouldnt you be up your own ass about something if it is a struggle to justify your own existence to yourself

if he was human at some point psychologically and emotionally he probably is not sure if he is anymore. the night hungers and he has done so many things that the philosophical abstractions of his classmates, chavrusas, favourite students, wives and grandparents in his head will not shut up about its like jewish guilt disco elysium

it sucks to be him BUT THEN... secret club of other immortals

but then they turn out to be foils in like the way where an outside observer would be like ugh great theres more of him and they have complicated opinions of one another because none of them are capable of facing their traumas or the skeletons in their closets or the fact that they kind of all suck as people a bit

but they have to learn to get along because theyre really all they have and also because life keeps getting ambiently worse and you need people

#froshposting #oc thoughts maybe #i think this is actually roughly tigris' arc maybe but no one knows him and no one should #except i didnt actually consent to the vampirism myself so its like an au i didnt know i wanted #in his real life tigris-hilkiya died peacefully at 120 having achieved all he wanted ok but #this evil little nonconsensual au is actually a good side character concept #hmmmm today i will have conflicting urban fantasy type beat lore ideas #gming a thing sometime soon wish me luck

Agnes I think part of what you are describing here is genuinely the chavrusa relationship and the distinctions you articulate between knowing & learning, their ends & means & intentions, overlap w/ distinctions btwn "study" & "learning" Talmud+Torah, & you might find that partnered approach to learning--and here I am using it in both your definition and the sense of "lernen," which adheres to yours--at the very least interesting. Incidentally have you watched Yentl recently

For the Jumblr ask game: 19, 27, 35?

19. My favorite parsha is Beshalach, which is my birthday parsha. It’s got the splitting of the sea and shiras hayam. I love the part about Miriam and the women singing. Miriam is such a cool figure. I’m attached to this parsha because one of my teachers in seminary said that your birthday parsha can tell you a lot about your own life. It’s a parsha full of miracles joy and gratitude so I hope that says good things about me.

27. My ideal shul would be one that is very welcoming and inclusive. It should embrace progressive values. I want the people to feel like part of my family. Unfortunately the shul I am part of now is not so warm and I really miss the shul I grew up in where everyone knew each other and cared about one another.

35. I think talking to Hashem every day even in my thoughts and in English really help me stay connected to Judaism. I like to keep Hashem in my thoughts as much as possible. I also love learning Torah whether through online shiurim or a book with my chavrusa. I’m always looking to learn new things and I love Torah because there is always something to discover.
