there’s such an attitude among ex-christian atheists that religions just spring up out of the void with no cultural context behind them. like ive heard people say shit like “those (((zionists))) think they own a piece of land bc their book of fairy tales told them so!!!” and they refuse to understand that no, we don’t belong there because of the torah, it’s in the torah because we belong there. because we’re from there. the torah (from a reform perspective) was written by ancient jews in and about the land that they were actively living on at the time. the torah contains instructions for agriculture because the people who lived in the land needed a way to teach their children how to care for it. it contains laws of jurisprudence because those are pretty important to have when you’re trying to run a society. same for the parts that talk about city planning. it contains our national origin story for the same reason that american schools teach kids about the boston tea party. it’s an extremely complex and fascinating text that is the furthest thing from just a “book of fairy tales”

i made this headcanon months ago but, I'd like to imagine that one of the first things Zuko does when he first became Fire Lord was track down Yon Rha and put him behind bars as well

Happy National Black Cat Day! 🐈‍⬛

This occasion brings together cat lovers from all over to express their love and admiration for these enigmatic feline friends. 🖤 These beautiful black cats have long been the subject of myths and superstitions, but today we aim to debunk those misconceptions and celebrate them for the unique and lovable companions they are.

Throughout history, black cats have been associated with various cultural beliefs. In ancient Egypt, they were revered and seen as symbols of good luck, often associated with the goddess Bastet, who represented home, fertility, and childbirth. However, in medieval Europe, black cats were linked to superstitions and often feared, with many believing they were witches' familiars. These superstitions led to the persecution and even mass killings of black cats during the witch hunt era. Fortunately, society has come a long way, and black cats are now cherished as pets in many households.

National Black Cat Day serves as a reminder that these animals, like any other, deserve love, care, and respect. It's an opportunity for cat enthusiasts to show their affection for these elegant and mysterious felines and to dispel any lingering prejudices against them. Whether you already have a black cat as a beloved companion or are considering adopting one, today is the day to celebrate and share the love.

For more black cat content, take a look at JSTOR Daily's "Nine Black Cat Stickers."

look. the social network fandom was. you had to be there. best fanfiction of all time. best fanart of all time. super nice fandom (at least in my experience). Andrew Garfield was out there professing love for Jesse Eisenberg daily, in every interview, while Justin Timberlake sulked in the corner. It was like, is this a real interview or is it rpf? Am I hallucinating? “You didn’t know me at thirteen / I really wish I did” is an exchange Jesse and Andrew had on the red carpet. Organically. Every interview was like this. Professions of love. Andrew saying that in order to get in character for Eduardo he fell in love with Jesse as Mark. And Justin Timberlake was there, for some reason. Avoiding the camera, avoiding looking at either of them. And then every week details of them on set came out. Every detail was like “in order to get Andrew in character for this devastating scene Jesse as mark said shit like ‘I love you, let’s get married and build a house together.’” So okay, people have ethical concerns about rpf. Which is fair. But it was 2011. And every interview was November 5th.
