Woke Up Wide Awake For No Reason. Did Hebrew Lessons On Drops Until My Brain Could Settle Again. I Love

Work pressure 😿🐈

We are blamed for the global IT outage.

‎שנה טובה ומתוקה!

For the past month of Elul (and for this past week for the Ashkenazim lol), we have been reciting selichot, preparing for Yammim Noraim, the days of awe. And finally, tonight is the start of Rosh Hashanah.

So what’s so special? Why did we take the extra time to prepare? Isn’t it just the start of a new year, Nothing more?

There are two reasons why we blow the shofar on Rosh Hashanah:

One is a wake-up call, now is the time to do Teshuvah, now is the time to return to Hashem. We’ve sinned, we’ve transgressed, but now is the time to do better. We can always come back on the derech, the path.

Like how a king is announced with trumpets. Reason number two for the blowing of the shofar is that we are pronouncing Hashem as King of kings, Master of masters, and Host of hosts. We’ve grown comfortable throughout the year and we remind ourselves now of Hashem’s greatness while we renew our covenant with Hashem.

This year, when you hear the Shofars blows. Take the time to feel, to acknowledge, and to appreciate. May you have a year as sweet as Apple and Honey. Be plentiful in Mitzvot like a Pomegranate is in its seeds. And always dwell in the house of Hashem.

do you ever just sit in the Sukkah and stare at the stars and think “Wow, this is what my ancestors did?” do you ever say a prayer and think about the generations before who said the same words that have just left your lips? do you ever shake the Lulav and Etrog and think about how even when the Etrog dries up and the leaves on the Lulav fall off of their stem, there will be new ones year after year after year?

because I just did. our religion is ancient and our religion is not going away. goyim will not erase us and antisemites will not disgrace us.

we are here. we will always be here.

i’m at a party right now and i heard someone on a walkie talkie and i turned around and it’s a mom who left her kids home on their own for the first time ever (they’re old enough) and they live a few houses down so she gave them a walkie talkie to call her if they get nervous. they just walkietalkied her for permission to eat ice cream

I don't know how many fucking times we need to say it but going after random Jews, targeting Holocaust memorials, and protesting outside of synagogues is not going to do anything to help Palestine. It is antisemitism, plain and simple, and if you are not horrified by it you have some serious fucking biases to unpack.

עם ישראל חי

Has it accrued to you that the reason the left hates jews is because you people are fucking awful??? The problem is you!!!

antisemitism is not the fault of jews. ever.

People hate Jewish resilience. They hate us in general, but they *especially* hate our resilience.

Not At Odds

Ceasefire Now + Bring Them Home Now

Jewish & Palestinian safety & freedom are not at odds with each other; they are interconnected. These things can must coexist.
