#Bagdad

[violent138]

I think completely by accident, members of the JLA realize that making Bruce hold their baby pretty much guarantees the child will pass out and sleep soundly. And when Bruce asks them where they think they're going they tell him which fridge the milk is in and remind him he doesn't sleep anyways. But they do, and desperately need some.

Also it's really funny before the kid falls asleep to watch Batman trying to talk while a baby grabs his face and interrupts consistently until Bruce looks at it.

The first beauty queen in Iraq was Jewish.

In 1946, Renée Rebecca Dangoor was crowned Miss Baghdad, and she became Miss Iraq the following year, making her the first and only Jewish woman to hold these titles.

Renée was born to a Jewish Baghdadi family in December 1925. Her father, Moshe Dangoor, was the son of Ezra Dangoor, a prominent rabbi in Iraq.

Iraqi Jews are one of the oldest and most historically significant Jewish communities, tracing their roots back to the Babylonian exile in the 6th century BCE. By 1948, Iraq was home to approximately 150,000 Jews. Today, nearly all have been forced to leave the country because of their Jewish identity.

China y el Lejano Oriente en el relato de Benjamín de Tudela (siglo xii). Realidades y fantasías

🇪🇸 Benjamín de Tudela, un viajero judío del siglo XII, realizó un extenso recorrido entre 1165 y 1173, documentando en su obra Séfer Masa’ot (Libro de los Viajes) una gran cantidad de información sobre diversas culturas, religiones y geografías, desde Bagdad hasta lugares remotos de Asia Central, India, Tíbet y China. En su relato, destaca no solo la descripción de las rutas comerciales centroasiáticas y los centros de intercambio como Samarcanda, sino también la presencia de comunidades judías en Kaifeng (China) y las interacciones con otras culturas. Sin embargo, sus observaciones mezclan hechos reales y mitos, dando pie a la creación de fantasías sobre criaturas y lugares lejanos. La influencia de las rutas comerciales de los Radanitas, los mercaderes judíos que conectaban Europa y Asia, es crucial en sus relatos. A través de su obra, Benjamín contribuyó al conocimiento europeo sobre Oriente y dejó una huella significativa en la documentación histórica y cultural de su tiempo. Las descripciones sobre China y sus mitos, aunque muchas veces imprecisas, reflejan el asombro ante culturas distantes y misteriosas.

🇺🇸 Benjamin de Tudela, a 12th-century Jewish traveler, undertook an extensive journey between 1165 and 1173, documenting in his work Sefer Masa’ot (Book of Travels) a wealth of information about various cultures, religions, and geographies, from Baghdad to remote places in Central Asia, India, Tibet, and China. His account highlights not only the description of Central Asian trade routes and exchange hubs like Samarkand, but also the Jewish communities in Kaifeng (China) and interactions with other cultures. However, his observations blend real facts with myths, leading to the creation of fantasies about creatures and distant places. The influence of the Radhanite trade routes, Jewish merchants who connected Europe and Asia, is crucial in his narratives. Through his work, Benjamin contributed to European knowledge of the East and left a significant mark on the historical and cultural documentation of his time. His descriptions of China and its myths, though often inaccurate, reflect the awe towards distant and mysterious cultures.

Steph: *deep sigh*

Bruce, warily looking over:

Steph: "I'm sorry I've been such a bitch tonight okay, I'm bleeding."

*Batmobile comes to a screeching halt*

Bruce: "You're bleeding? And you didn't say anything?"

Steph: "It's really none of your business--"

Bruce: "Alfred prep the medical--"

Steph: "No! I'm on my period you ass! But yes, sorry again." *starts crying a little*

Bruce:

Bruce: "Do you want me to get you anything--"

Steph: "Just drive."

Bruce: "I'm serious, we can grab some--"

Steph: "You've stopped in the middle of the intersection! This is so embarrassing." *slumps down in her seat*
