I love talking to rabbis as a recent conversion student because the interaction goes something like, "you're converting? Now?! At this time, at this moment in history?!". And they always talk about this influx of jewish convert students they've seen recently, and it's like...
There's this level of respect I get from rabbis for converting at this point in time, but... Has there ever been a good time to be a jew in the last thousand years or so plus? I'm imagining that rabbis and jews in general back in 1492, back in 1290, back in 1349 would have said the exact same thing. So, really, there is only a time to be a jew. Maybe it's not a "good" time, yes, but it is a time. And to me, that's good enough
#jumblr#jew by choice#jewish conversion#personal thoughts tag#and to me i *know* that being a jew has historically Not Been a Good Time. i don't ask that of my conversion#i would convert if i had to run one day. in fact i count on that as a possibility#that's why i like simple judaica. if i have to run away with my people it'll be easier with simple bare-boned judaica#i would convert even in the middle of a desert. in the middle of exhile. on threat of pain and death#because to me being a jew isn't about it being a 'good time.' it's about being true and honest about what i need to be#if i were born this same way a thousand years ago i would make this decision again#where you rest; i will rest. where you pray; i will pray. when you weep; i shall weep. and where you die; i will die#i can only speak for myself but i've seen other students with a similar mindset#so in truth it's not the timing that motivated me. it's deeper. it can't be intellectualized. it is a primal feeling - something soul-deep

something something max's main color being red with blue highlights something something grace's main color being blue with red highlights something something motivations something something alive and dead something something
#would i like to do an analysis on the lighting? yes.#but for some reason my brain is only capable of analyzing bf and some bits of tgwdlm#dont expect much from me#but something i CAN say is that#the colors can represent their motivations and connections to the lords in black#such as dying in the waylon hall and getting to use the black book#and by motivations i mean#with grace; she decided to use the powers of the black book to get rid of 'dirty dudes'#which is something she most likely believes as a correct action#but the red highlights indicate the bits on evilness in her#it shows how her intentions don't change her actions#and for max; red is for vengeance#yet the blue highlights are used in here#mostly for 'who will pray for me' bit#and#this is something related. i believe that max was reflecting himself when saying those lines#it was not only for richie to repeat but also about himself#anyway back to the lighting#the blue represents that there is something deeper than just vengeance#'who will pray for me when im gone'#thats about himself. he knows that no one in the schoo really cared that much about his death besides the game#they only cared about the game. not max himself#so the lights during both npmd and ddmd represent#their connections to the lords. their motivations and intent. and how their actions are made#starkid#hatchetfield#nerdy prudes must die#npmd#max jagerman#grace chasity

I gotta say: I've been accompanying the story of Honkai Impact 3rd for a while now. I know Kevin Kaslana intimately and Phainon gives me the most aggravating Uncanny Valley effect ever.
It's the expression. He's too kind, too bright. I know Kevin was just like that when he was younger but the Kevin we're used to is the strongest warrior of humanity. The cold, pragmatic, hopeless man that became the villain. Not this young-faced, bright-eyed hero with a smile.
It's making me highkey anxious. Star Rail has a pretty optimistic setting so I wouldn't say he'd go all the way, but I'm expecting one or three Break the Cutie moments here.
#praying for this man's mental health like i never prayed for mine#oh god please don't let all his friends die#let him be a true hero for once#honkai star rail#hsr#hsr phainon

Okay yeah I wasn't ever gonna be contained with just one post so, Callowmoore stuff that's on rotisserie in my brain from ep.94
Long and deep looks at each other and a hug right off the bat!
When asked by Laudna if they were okay in ep. 91, Ashton deflected with 'say that again?' and 'are any of us?', but when Fearne asks they give a genuine answer and then also ask her how she's feeling, because she's been quiet and they care
Ashton, despite hurting when they're touched and exhausted so the chronic pain is as intense as the first time, still wanting to cuddle with Fearne - and feeling at ease when they do
And like, the way they were trying to articulate it implies that they've wanted to ask for quite some time, but the timing has been off or situations have gotten in the way, and they don't want to wait any longer
But also they don't ask if they can cuddle they ask if Fearne wants to; they want to, but they ask Fearne if she doesn't want to sleep alone, because her comfort is as important or more important than their own
Fearne given her past experiences with people of course thinks they mean the other kind of company, which she notes she does want (so that's not off the table) but asks if they could just cuddle - to which Ashton doesn't entirely deny either, but notes that they're tired and in a lot of pain right now so they too was asking for the same
Also the fact that Fearne, who has been in a threesome inside a corrupted haunted wood, will later flirt with a dark echo of herself, and spooned with a ghost pirate captain, got so flustered about asking Ashton that she just wants to cuddle
Despite the awkwardness they still just laugh and joke together through it, they're awkward but it's in a sweet way
All of Ashton's immediate action the second they realised Fearne was missing - similar to how they wanted to find her after the shard incident but this time in a position where they could take action - no nonsense, no pissing contest with Chetney about her scent being on their bed, "Find. Them. Now."
And then still being soft after seeing Fearne again, because all that matters right now is that she's still here. And another post I saw said it better but, Ashton never seeks to change or 'correct' parts of who Fearne is; she can still follow cute animals just next time bring a buddy along (which given how they were in bed together would imply meaning them), they love her for her, fae and all, they just want her to be safe
Not entirely ep. 94 but given how on 91 Ashton pointed out that they needed to sleep and 'figure out who they wanted to be', and then here ask Fearne to be there beside them so they could have someone to wake up to, it to me at least says a lot about what Ashton has already decided; and how despite both of them having dealt with grief and anger and helplessness by bottling it up, hiding away, and shouldering it alone, this time they both wanted to just feel at ease with each other
#callowmoore#ashton greymoore#fearne calloway#fearne x ashton#ashton x fearne#ashley johnson#taliesin jaffe#critical role#cr3#cr3 spoilers#c3e94#cr spoilers#bells hells#did I mention that I'm not normal about them because AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA#shipper rotisserie brain go brrrrr#Orym's passive perception 'damnnn' was great too#I have been praying for 5 weeks for just a tiny bit of comfort between the two and I got a whole buffet!#I mean I trust Matt and narratively it was juicy but c'mon man you couldn't give them one night? The night of FCG blowing up??#I wonder: if Ashton was the big spoon would they have woke up with Fearne to join the walk/fight?#I ofc wish they returned to the same bed but she was extra exhausted - next time hopefully#Zathuda still needs to die - painfully - maybe they can do it together; steal his dragon and fancy cloak#Ludinus too - live show's a big stage (half expect Sam to debut his new player then) big post-fight kiss at Aeor maybe/please?#hopefully we can also see them pickpocketing each other again because it's their love language#but so is the softness and comfort and awkward giggling and innuendo#which is why I hate that most villains tend to look past/through Ashton - they don't see them but Fearne sees them; they see each other#tag reader bonus - Ashton always sleeps on Fearne's right: so she can see/poke their glass slab but also so their stone arm doesn't cut her

That doesn't mean your voice isn't heard.
I believe that better days are coming- somehow, someway, someday-
"Every world has its end.
I know that's kinda sad, but...
That's why we gotta live life to the fullest in the time we have.
At least, that's what I figure."
We're gonna get through this.
To everyone who's sent me a message, is struggling, or just feels alone right now...
I believe in you. I believe in us. This isn't gonna keep you down, I know ya'll are stronger than you think.
If The World Chooses To Become Our Enemy, We Will Fight Like We Always Have.
Your perseverance is admirable. Your strength to withstand the worst of our nightmares is uncanny.
For those of us who struggle to find ways to help make a change, I hope you know... you're seen.
You inspire us.
Keep the spark alive in yourselves... we see it. we're cheering you on.
Not lookin' back
Not givin' up
Not letting go
We'll keep on running.
#california#I try to avoid causing a ruckus but man stuff lately combined with the asks...#I know there'll be misinformation & spam#I want ya'll who are in fact facing some real bad stuff right now know that you're not being ignored.#you can't.#YOU are the fire that won't die out.#your sheer will & tenacity to burn through the worst fires & attacks are crazy#in the best way possible I hope ya'll know that even when there's folks like some of us who dunno if we can directly help-#we SEE you we HEAR you we PRAY FOR YOU & are screaming here in the back for your lives#art#fanart#charlidrawzart2025#charlidrawzfanart2025#charlidrawzart#charlidrawzfanart#man I don't feel like taggin too much so I hope the folks this does reach manages to inspire or bless somebody the way I pray it could#sonic the hedgehog#sth#sth art#sth fanart#2025#January2025#January 2025#fires#cw fire#tw fire#hopeful#persevere#sonic art#sonic

Ghost x gn reader
Here, have some platonic fluff. I just had the worst milkshake and I can still taste it- to be fair, I was warned
It all started with a craving. The desire, no, need for a milkshake was getting to you, but you didn't have any regular ice cream.
Ghost stood behind you in the kitchen as you checked the freezer, again.
"I wonder if a banana mint chocolate chip milkshake would be any good?" you wonder out loud.
"Sounds horrible. Wouldn't recommend it, love. I'll get some vanilla ice cream tomorrow and we can make a milkshake then," he says, leaning against the counter.
You glare playfully at him in response, not willing to back down just yet. "C'mon, don't knock it 'till you try it! You're such a hater," you huff.
Too tired to argue, Ghost rolls his eyes at you. "Alright, you win. We'll make the bloody milkshake." He sighs in defeat.
Gleefully, you grab the pint of mint chocolate ice cream, milk, and bananas. In hindsight, it was a horrible combination.
With the monstrosity successfully created, you pour a glass for yourself. You glance at Ghost, who is giving you some serious side eye right now.
"Want some?" You offer.
"I'd rather not," he says bluntly. That doesn't stop him from grabbing a mug and pouring himself just a little bit of it.
He raises the bottom half of his mask to take a sip. He immediately regrets the decision, a small grimace flashing across his face.
You take a sip as well.
It's bad. Worse than you thought. It smells strange and tastes worse- not that you'd ever admit it to Ghost.
"It's not that bad." You sigh, glancing at Ghost's reaction. "Like I said, you're just a hater!"
He raises an eyebrow at you. "It's all yours, love. I'm not gonna fight you for it." He lifts his hands in mock surrender.
Later, you're both sitting on the couch. You convinced him to watch the barbie moving with you, not that he was particularly paying attention to it.
You sigh, and he looks over at you.
"Somethin' the matter?" He grunts.
"It's the fucking milkshake! I can still taste it! It was awful, why did you let me drink that?" you rant at him, feigning annoyance.
He crosses his arms at you and gives you an 'I told you so' look.
"Don't say I didn't warn you," he chuckles.
The next day, you're much happier after having a normal milkshake with vanilla ice cream.
#The milkshake was so bad#Oml I was suffering#Okay that's a little dramatic#But it was like a 3.5/10#NOT GOOD DON'T RECOMMEND#My dad was there when I made it and he was 100% right about it sucking ass#Not that I admitted it to him#I'd rather die than admit when I'm wrong after being stubborn about something#Anyways I wrote this at not even 1 am#I'm not gonna proofread this shit#Enjoy!!!#I'm praying I'll get to have a normal milkshake tomorrow#My needs are NOT satisfied#Milkshake... save me milkshake...#cod#simon ghost riley#ghost x reader#ghost x gn reader#platonic#fluff#simon riley x reader#simon ghost riley x reader#simon riley x gn reader#ghost cod#simon riley

That shithead computer man is threatening people into giving him millions of Americans' personal information and I am just sitting here. Like I feel like I should be doing something about the coup that is happening but what the hell do you even do about that
#aside from pray for a brave american hero to whack him I mean. because I am doing that#us politics#like genuinely is there anything the average citizen can do about a hostile takeover of govt or like#do I just sit here#what do I do. make angry phone calls at him? oh I'm Sure that will stop him and his goons with guns#like I'll do it but I don't think it'll be useful#can he please just die. I don't care how it takes place I just need him dead

There's no way Dean didn't pray to Cas in episode 12x09 when he and Sam were isolated in that governmental jail. I refuse to believe it. They didn't show it to us, they didn't say anything about it. But listen to me. There's NO FUCKING WAY he didn't.
They didn't show us because it wasn't relevant to the story like it was in episode 6x06. We learned that Dean called Cas for help about soulless!sam but we didn't see him, but they tell us he did because that's relevant for him to yell at Cas in that scene for not coming when he calls. And same in Purgatory we learn that Dean prayed to Cas every night, we don't know what he said in these prayers but they tell us he prayed because this is relevant, it leads to Cas explaining why he never answered those prayers.
So my point is that in episode 12x09 they didn't tell us he prayed to Cas because there was no purpose for the story, but HE DID. He prayed to him because he felt alone and that's also why Cas seems so lost and helpless. Because he can hear Dean, he can hear him but can't answer, he can hear him not knowing where they are kept. He can hear him ask for help without being able to do so.
#I'll die on this hill#maybe alone but I don't care#I can't believe he didn't pray to him#he probably told him he didn't know where they were#told him he was bored#told him he think sammy is not that far but can't hear him#told him he'll find a way soon when he started considering asking billie#spn 12x09#First Blood#dean praying to cas#he did that at least one in that jail#when he was feeling desperate#just before he decided to call billie#destiel#deancas#castiel#dean#my random thoughts about destiel

Please, if you have nothing else to do, please look at what is on the Golden Records, alongside the Soundcloud uploaded by NASA of the greetings recorded on the record. There is such a quiet vulnerability to knowing that these records have been created and are at the mercy of whomever finds them. I hope they love us as much as I love them.
I hope we can send more out - we deserve to be remembered, alongside this entire world. There is truly no place more special to me than this world💛
#positivity#i hope we all eat well#i hope we are all remembered by people we will never be able to fathom#the records were made by NERDS and i adore all of them#i love how much they thought about what they should include and how they thought through how to convey information#you don't get it you don't GET it every DAY i pray that SOMEBODY out there has sent out their own golden record do you GET it.......#i yearn to know every little thing about every type of people in the universe. i would kill and die just to have the chance to know#even IF the life out there is 'simple single-celled organisms' i don't CARE!!!! i need to know they exist#i need to know WHAT they are or WHO they are. i want to know every tiny microscopic thing about them#this applies to my fellow human of course but it applies to everything. i need to know it ALL#i feel like a caged tiger if you're wondering

truly blows my mind that people will get on an online game and proceed to bitch and whine the entire time. where is your joy. your whimsy. you are not having fun why are you here
#the amount of times ive said im gonna throw and then won is crazy. i think it may imply something abt how the game should be played#why r you so sad and serious. im gonna run at them with a shotgun and pray and it's gonna work. im gonna sit in this aoe and#defuse the spike 0.2 seconds before i die#get silly. it's a game. my god it's a game#genuinely i don't get upset ever. if we're losing bad then like. well. it's a game baby!#also the advantage of purposefully doing something really stupid is that they don't think you're gonna do that#why the fuck would i sit in this corner with a shotgun. why would i go for defuse when 3/5#enemies r still alive and actively shooting at me. well. it's the whimsy

thinking about how we're introduced to yang in the yellow trailer. she's riding her motorcycle to a club, looking for someone (to get answers to a question she's been asking for years). her fighting style involves punching people (and monsters), she's fun-loving and more than anything, enjoys the thrill of a fight. not to mention she's incredibly protective of her hair.
and it pains that through all these years, she has lost, given up, or sacrificed parts of herself for someone else's sake.
she loses her right arm protecting blake. that happens in early-to-mid fall, winter comes and goes, and by the time the trees are lush and green again yang has not even given a thought to getting a prosthetic, let alone getting back to training. she has, to a point, given up on being a huntress. and when the time comes that she does get back into it and puts on her new prosthetic arm, she doesn't do it for herself when she's actually ready for it; she does it for ruby's sake.
then, yang gives up on her chance of getting answers for the question that has plagued her mind since she was a young child to be there for ruby. her bike ends up in a river in an effort to protect blake again.
and finally, she gives up her life to protect ruby, fully believing she was dead once she ended up in the ever after. piece by piece, yang keeps losing herself. her hair is literally the only thing she has not given up (and by gods am i terrified for her when ruby and blake kept describing her as someone with long, blonde hair) and all i need to ask is:
when is it enough? when does the moment come that yang puts herself first? does she really need to lose her hair too????
#rwby#rwby9#rwby spoilers#yang xiao long#i'm cautiously optimistic bc iirc barbara talked about there being an important moment for yang#that she really wants to do justice#and i'm hoping This Is It#this is The Moment#but i also don't want to get my hopes up lmao#(also while this is like. serious post and all—#i do find it kind of funny in an incredibly sad way—#that yang literally went her hair > her life—#like she can die as long as her hair stays intact but there's no picking a god to pray for if her hair gets messed with)

FARGO S5 DISC. & SPOILERS
gif set + pre-finale discussion below:
i'm genuinely curious what is going to happen in the the finale of fargo's fifth season. not a single season of fargo over the years has ceased to amaze me - throwing the most bizarre plot twists at every angle.
as screwed up as gator is, i actually hope he makes it out. i think he's a disgusting excuse of a human being, but he doesn't completely lack humanity either ... which is surprising considering he was raised by a murderous psychopath.
now that ole' munch has taken his toll on him and dot has turned the ranch upside down, i really hope that he gets the chance to live. he'll get to see things the way they are and always have been ... now that he has been blinded.
i want dot to end roy ... and i want gator to help her.
i, personally, think it would be so much more moving for him to live with the consequences rather than to die as a sacrificial martyr of some sorts.
#the moment this kid sat in a patrol car and whipped out a vape i knew i couldnt take him seriously#but even tho i don't want him to die ik things don't work out the way you want them to in fargo#like when you thought bear's daughter simone had a chance#(fargo s2)#and that was ripped away in a second#i can pray i guess#we'll see what happens tuesday#fargo season 5#gator tillman#joe keery#dorothy lyon#juno temple#roy tillman#jon hamm#fargo spoilers#nectarine on: fargo#nectarine's o-ri-gional posts

as positive as i want to be ... i'm fucking terrified . and seeing some of you post things about hoping we burn ? you do realize that some of us are trapped here and are scared , right ? that we're here trying to figure out how we're going to survive and instead of support we're being told the whole fucking country should burn ?
we are scared . and seeing that shit ? just lets us know we have no support and no safe place to go .
we're already fucking terrified of our existence becoming illegal and now we can't even have a space here to find support ?
cool .
#ooc ↳ mox#politics tw#brb going to cry myself to sleep#and try to figure out if zig and i need to rush a courthouse wedding#just so we can make sure we can get married#and try to figure out how to fund his top surgery before shit goes down#and hope and pray that my student loan payments don't bankrupt us#and that i can still have access to birth control that i could literally die without#and that i'll still have access to the medication that keeps me stable#but yeah... let everything burn i guess
