“this ship is toxic”, “that ship is canon”, guys can we please discuss other hot takes like c’mon 😭
haruka probably at one point earned enough money from her idol days that she probably considered adopting a penguin. and/or she wants to do it in the future because penguins get lonely and it’s better to adopt 2 or more, but she’s too young or busy right now

#haruka take#haruka kiritani#pjsk#project sekai#prsk#just be aware this delves a little into headcanon territory#but yes- ships are fine to discuss but i dont want my blog to be Just Ships#i will make a new rule if it keep up#just try to space it out pls

Something that’s always missing whenever people talk about Lyanna and the Kingsguard at the Tower of Joy is that these things should always circle back to Jon Snow. He’s our main character here. Rhaegar and Lyanna, as well as the Kingsguard, are all dead. They were dead before this story began. This tiny section of text is meant to give color to Jon — who is alive, and whose story is currently unfolding. The events at the Tower of Joy, told entirely through Ned’s fever dream for a reason, essentially serve as one thing: fantasy protagonist myth building 101. Three wise men, a legendary magical sword, some of the greatest knights of an era, a dying queen lady, the end of an age, a dead prince, a dead king, and then here comes a soon to be completely orphaned prince whose life hangs on the balance and whose survival depends on the compassion of one lord and his wizard friend. GRRM is literally retelling King Arthur’s backstory through Jon. This whole thing is one giant literary allusion to Uther and Igraine and the boy king Arthur, to Lancelot and his Joyous Guard, to Guinevere, and to tragic romances. It reads as an ode to Arthurian fantasy and is meant to backdrop the main protagonist’s fantastical origins. The Kingsguard are there to play into that. Their presence at the Tower, in that moment, was never about Lyanna; not solely, anyway. Their presence is tied to Rhaegar’s last surviving male child, and the language used suggests that they had chosen their king, for better or worse. Any discussion surrounding the Kingsguard’s presence at the Tower that focuses on anyone but Jon completely misses the point imo.
#idk yall im just a lil annoyed rn lmaooo#I feel like there are a lot of readings and arguments that have nothing to do with the actual purpose of the text#just people straight up ignoring what’s already in the text and then imposing their own reading#like ned’s fever dream speaks to his trauma fr but like a big main takeaway is:#oh the kg literally have a million other places to be and a million other things to do so why are they here in particular?#why have they remained here of all places??#oh they are doing their duty as they see it….which is to guard the king…..who is now baby jon like?????#it’s almost spelled out for us in the text why do yall have to create new cannon about evil kingsguard following evil rhaegar??#asoiaf#jon snow#lyanna stark#the tower of joy#valyrianscrolls#“the kingsguard were evil for keeping lya from her brother!111”#hmmmm neddard i agot — lyanna was scared shitless until ned made his promises#I wonder why she’d be scared? I wonder if anything happened recently to rhaegar’s children to make her scared?#no she was definitely scared of the kingsguard there 🙃#I do want to say too that this is a world where brother and sister go to war (dance of the dragons)#or brother vs brother (stannis vs renly) among other examples of familial conflicts#ned fought and won a war for robert whose rule was solidified in the targ heirs’ blood#him being lya’s brother at that moment doesn’t mean shit

Durgetash Resurrection AU
"Is that...? That's my body. I remember now. The Morphic Pool. The Elder Brain, it... I was dead. What did you do?" "I made a deal... with Lord Bane."
#durgetash#bg3#enver gortash#the dark urge#durgetash resurrection au#it's about time i made some durgetash content that isn't just shitposting lol#i promise i do plan to actually write this fic#god i know this looks like a happy reunion but i promise it will not be that simple#he's not exactly happy she's usurped him as bane's chosen#and the torture he experienced at bane's hand when he was dead does impact him significantly#but at the same time he's glad it's over so he's also grateful too#but also he spent so much time in hell as a child wishing someone would come save him until he learned he couldn't rely on anyone else#that now that someone actually has saved him he doesn't know how to process it#and yes bane doesn't insist on having just one chosen but he's not going to re-accept gortash easily#he'll have to prove himself all over again whereas durge is on top of the world right now#and he doesn't want her hand outs#and bane may say he's fine with them ruling together for now but you just know he's going to pit them against each other too#and durge is hardly soft herself. she saved him for her own reasons but she's not going to give up power for him. the netherbrain is HERS.#she betrayed her father for this. she became a new person for this. she's not here just for him but she wants him here with her.#he can share her throne but he better understand who's in charge here. she'll tadpole him too if she has to.#though she hopes he won't make her do that (not that she'll tell him she hopes that)#and he hates her for it but he also wouldn't respect her if she were any different#it's complicated#plus they have to deal with any interpersonal drama while also trying to take over the world 😂#because despite how the “control the netherbrain” ending makes it seem#the journals and plans in gortash's office make it clear that not everyone in baldur's gate is tadpoled. not even close.#(the brain doesn't produce nearly enough tadpoles for that)#so they have to deal with keeping the rest of the population in line & trying to militarize the city & get footholds in other cities#not to mention they have to counteract the fact that every god and other powerful being in the world is going to be working against them#tennetash

Eyy, King Reaper and his beloved Mage Geno designs <3
#new age au#Geno is very tall (tall Geno supremacy <3) and Reaper usually floats so he's just slightly taller than Geno on any normal day <3#if he unties his robe in the back it drags along the floor at the perfect height to feign being very tall-#ohh I have so many thoughts about them :]#Geno's magic manifests as crystals so he wears some on his outfit (and keeps more in his pockets)#the black and purple ones on his belt are meant to be a little reference to Reaper (and Dust. before meeting him he only has a black one-)#Geno also uses a Cane! he's insanely skilled and powerful but on sone days magic fatigue finally catches up to him and he has to use it#the black half-robe was also the only accessory Reaper could convince Geno to adopt from his kingdom- that and the Sandals haha-#(I like to think Error made Geno's scarf-)#and ofc Reaper...#he's been ruling for so long that he lives in comfort rather than appearance because. i mean. no one is going to doubt him at this point#he leaves his ribcage exposed as a show of his confidence in his rule (direct access to his soul basically-) but also because. well.#he thinks he's eye-candy 🙏#and in his kingdom the crown/sign of royalty are those olive branch circlets#he wears his over his hood usually. Geno recieved one when Reaper officially finished courting him. Dust would eventually get one. though#for him it's more the equivalent of a wedding ring since his loyalty lies with Nightmare still and he has little official ruling power in#Reaper's kingdom.#oh! Reaper also wears a littlr band Geno made him once on his ribs. it's a nice red gem that he's vaguely aware is actually a tracking spel#Geno thought he was being subtle about it. he. in fact. was not. but Reaper let him get away with it 🙏#oh!!! last thing#Geno sometimes wears a nice silk wrap over his bad eye that's a nice clean white. it usually depends if he's doing magic or not#because his eye tends to get melty again if he strains during casting. and he's always overdoing it lmao-#anyways yeah#mm lied one more note#Reaper's wings are optional. kinda like a manifestation of his Ecto in a way since he doesn't need them to float#more just sonething to make him more regal or appear more threatening!#now I'm done#my favorite goofballs <3#spot!drawn#my art

yknow i understand that the memes are Not That Deep and it is fun to make jokes and relating w/others about like "oh no i started another wip when i have 90000 other wips im neglecting!!! i had another idea when i should be working on the projects i already have!!!" and i get that it is a good habit to like, finish what you start and the want to see things through and such. like shore i relate 2 these too. but ☝️! i must ask. is it really so bad to have many ideas. is it really so bad to have several idea pools to bounce back and forth from when perhapeth you get stuck on the current one youre on and wanna mix it up a little. IS IT SO WRONG to not finish a wip. must everything be a completed project that is pretty and cleaned up and perfectly done?! i do know, as i said, that it is Not That Deep. but also i do worry that perhaps for some people, it Is That Deep. i would personally like to reject the concept that all ideas must be completed start to finish in a nice little order otherwise it's "not right" or whatever. sometimes you start something and it doesnt really go anywhere! that's fine. sometimes you put it away for a few days or weeks or months or years and then you come back to it later!! whats wrong w/that. who is putting deadlines on these things, if they are in fact hobbies. business is i guess another story but im not TALKING about business. i am talking about fun teehee hobby time. cutting away imaginary rules and putting false pressures and having FUN why is it so SHAMEFUL to have many ideas and working on them as you GO!!!! be free. do whatever u want FOREVER!!!!!!!
#this sounds like im making an announcement. im not announcing shit im just babbling in a big run on paragraph lol#i think sometimes you hit a point where like#u see a hashtag relatable meme so many times that it is like yknow what. maybe this ISNT relatable to me anymore actually.#also i did not even see a meme about this at all today or even recently#i was just thinking about my various crochet projects as i was working on one and daydreaming about my various fics in progress#and the new idea i had for a fic / the new pattern i looked up earlier#because i LIKE having many things to work on at once#it keeps my momentum going#who give a shit if it's not organized or efficient or whatever the point is supposed to be#no imaginary rules in my HOUSE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!#anyway. not saying the memes r a crime or anything LOL i dont really care ppl can do wahtever they want#but ya know. sometimes things start as a light joke and then they snowball Very Quickly#or maybe that is something more telling about my personality LOL#n e way. many have said i am probs undiagnosed ADHD and i do think id explode if i tried to limit myself to finishing one thing at a time#brain gets stuck on one thing and needs to fly around for a while to look at other things!! do not cage my bird.#okay bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ambrose or "Elias" depending on who you're asking 💚
#I'm in a fanclub with me myself and I so I need to post the boy#he was a satyr#but i had to change to tiefling to use the new rules per#so I'm leaning into goat like features#anyway heavily inspired by cult of the lamb he grew up in a cult and ran away but he's struggling with being in the outside world#he keeps getting arrested 😅 so he may just return to the cult we'll see#his name is ambrose he's meant to be god food when he ran away he took on the name elias as an alias#my ocs#dungeons and dragons#my art#might actually make this look nicer later we'll see

something that really frustrates me about Discourse(TM) re: stories in video games is that the vast majority of people who engage in those discussions seem utterly incapable of considering anything besides the literal text of the game and will not acknowledge any meta elements of a game, how it functions as a product, etc.
like i'm seeing people argue about the point of giving majima amnesia in pirate yakuza, and i'm only seeing shit like "it was pointless bc he just ended up remembering anyway", "he wouldn't have gotten as invested in noah if he hadn't lost his memory", etc etc, like. gamers. they gave him amnesia because this game is meant to be an intro to majima for people who picked up the series with y7/y8. y7 in particular did huge numbers and brought in a ton of people who are new to the series. they wanted those people to be able to play the game without being completely lost but also didn't want to try to dump 7 games' worth of majima lore on them to get them up to speed. giving him amnesia and transplanting him to a completely different setting lets them do that, while also letting them slowly reintroduce the parts of majima's backstory that they want new players to know over the course of the game. i'd bet my bottom dollar that his amnesia + hawaii as the setting were among the first things about the game that were decided on for that specific reason, and everything else followed from that. any function/value his amnesia may or may not have had wrt the narrative was entirely secondary.
like im not saying we need to take a super ~academic~ or ~rigorous~ approach to discussing the wacky pirate game, but can we use our brains at least a little bit?
#rambles#yakuza liveblogging#pirate yakuza#pirate yakuza spoilers#(bit of a stretch to call this spoilers imo but just in case)#you think pirate yakuza in hawaii just fell out of a coconut tree? it exists in the context in which it was made and all that came before#there are obviously other factors going into these decisions as well#obviously hawaii was the setting bc they already had the honolulu map#and by god if rgg makes an entire new overworld map theyre gonna get their moneys worth out of it#and its kinda necessary for narrative continuity from y8 etc etc#but like. idk what people who think his amnesia is pointless and shouldnt have been in the game were expecting lmfao#for as much as i wouldve liked 3jima adventures on the high seas where they constantly refer to y0-y6 that was never happening#now is there a world in which they couldve pulled off a solid intro to majima for the y7/y8 gamer without pulling the amnesia card? yes#however. it wouldve been a very fine line to walk between giving enough context for the average smooth-brained gamer to keep up#while also not having it come across as super clunky/unnatural#amnesia is the easier solution by far and it's absolutely unsurprising they went with the easy solution for the wacky spinoff game#anyway. begging gamers to understand that games are texts (and ultimately products) that exist in the real world#that are influenced & informed by things that exist outside the game itself#not these pocket dimensions that have to be considered exclusively on the basis of the in-universe settings/rules/narrative

RIP to you but what makes me immune to falling into a cult isn't that I think I'm too smart or moral... It's that I think it would require willingly making myself part of a group of people.
It would seem to require actually speaking to someone, but most of all what makes me immune is that I think the cults are all avoiding me personally, because they don't want me. They only knock on my door once and then never again and I always think it was something I said.
My toxic trait is that I think being sucked into a cult requires being willing to seek or accept human contact, and that it requires a group of people who actually wants you among their numbers [have not found one to date].
#this is a joke#mostly#but i am joking#like yes there are broad cultural movements you could end up in with cult like thinking from behind your keyboard#like being right wing#but also I am joking#Like sometimes I sit here and I think being 'starved' for social interaction should make me really vulnerable to all sorts of shit and#chill Rabbit- you'd have to want to talk to another person at all for literally any of this to be a concern and you left.#Every group chat or interest group you have tried to join because you could not stand anyone.#I don't even have enough desire for approval to couch what I am saying and keep actively unfriending and blocking people#despite any previous attachment for continuing to say shit that rubs me the wrong way after I made my stance on it clear#which seems a little like the opposite problem#again I am being flippant and I am joking#but 2% at what level of lacking any social impulse or in-group out-group distinction capacity at all do you become statistically less likel#to fall into a cult simply by not being socially available to them or by being a genuine inconvenience to include#and then I think#you keep dropping people like hot coals for expressing things that make you feel 1% micro-aggressed#your tumblr dashboard is a curated revolving door and I don't even think you look at a screen name before arguing whatever is on your mind#like yeah you are socially isolated but idk it's been 7 years and I still haven't been driven to even -want- to try participating in a grou#haven't been able to form new friendships where you actually talk to another person either#Also I am pretty sure a lot of cult tactics directly parallel forms of parental abuse that haven't worked on me since i was a toddler#but that's besides the point#the point being I'd have to willingly talk to anyone in order to become part of a group and I am joking that would seem to rule out cults#I'm sure I'll do a bunch of reading on this and again this is 98% a JOKE

really really funny to post a whole long well-thought-out thing about how i no longer identify as plural then immediately get into a week long argument with myself(s) about whether that's true
#fucking classic behavior honestly#like yeah okay maybe i AM a little plural.#however it generally causes me extra stress and problems to focus on or think about it too much#as opposed to many people who say that it is freeing for them#the only way i got out of a years long crisis about The Self(s)#was to embrace a philosophy of 'the Self is made up and fake; you werent pretending but you also#dont have to keep the facets of yourself so sharply separated if it no longer feels right.'#and i was like okay❤️yay👍#however then theres also stuff like.#me being caught in a bfrb loop this morning until sawyer switched in and was like stop it dumbshit we're doing other stuff now#and then the urge instantly went away and we dissociated and wrote this post#and started arguing over whether the past several years have been a different host#like wtf am i supposed to do with that..............#i literally just declared that none of this applies to me would you shut the fuck up#like at the same time i do experience and believe in a continuity of 'me'. trying to deny that just makes things worse#i just disagree with myself sometimes it's whatever#have i been sitting here at work half dissociated thinking about this for a fucking hour. this is what happens#we dont fucking sleep enough.#and also what happened before we initiated the 'its literally fine to not think about it much and just exist' rule#wheres that post thats like EVERY ME IS ME BABY I AM THE MASK AND THE WEARER#wait. new pinned post time#aphelion.txt#system tag

#for Jin-chul#specifically for jin-chul as i am writing him in the fic im working on#if u guys want a title or snippets u should tell me bc i will give them to u but only if i know theres like. interest. u feel me?#also keep in mind it def won't be done for. a while. im unfortunately v busy rn and abt to become even busier. haha. but i can give nibbles#anyway back to the Weave. if this one had a title it would probably be Woo Jin-chul and the Dreamcatcher of the Past. or smthg like that.#in the sense of getting caught on#its not that he hasnt let go its that he remembers and nothing else is quite as good as that remembering#grief has made a home in his heart and lives there like a tumor but hed rather rip out his own heart than let anyone cure him of the cancer#so he just dreams of the things he cant have anymore and keeps them safe out of reach and never lets anyone else touch them#he gets hung up but also forces himself to keep pushing forward because if he doesnt he'll die- mentally and emotionally yes#but also physically because the world they live in now is one ruled by power and cruelty and its not safe to live any other way#jin-chul isnt safe. he makes himself unsafe so that other ppl have a chance to BE safe. but he remembers when he was and part of him#cant move past that. cant stop longing for it with his whole heart. its v sad of him honestly#i think thats why Sung Jinwoo's actions as well as the man himself meant so much to him. because here was this person who was SO powerful#but instead of using that power within the new system to start oppressing others and propel himself to the top or be casually cruel#he kept a sense of self and honor and duty. he wasnt always 'righteous' but he did truly try to save lives when they were in danger#and never lost sight of the value of those lives. to jin-chul someone like that must've felt like a miracle after all that time#and been something he deeply cherished and coveted personally.#even if they didnt know each other that well im sure that sung jinwoo's presence mustve been something that crossed jin-chul's mind often#and reassured him.#anyway. jinchul and jinwoo's relationship is just something i think about a lot.#i love them so much. literally nomming on them as we speak#SL#solo leveling#Woo Jin-chul#woo jinchul#sung jinwoo#web weaving#also there is a truly appalling lack of fanart of my baby#im not an artist guys. i cannot fill this hole in the fandom. TT devastating

so i took my car in today because i thought it might just need some more brake fluid and although i tried to just look at it myself i couldn't for the life of me figure out which part under the hood was the brake fluid reservoir without having to lean all over my car and get all dirty, so i figured i might just have to pay a service fee and whatever for the fluid itself...
turns out i need all new brake pads !!
ahaha
haha
ha
yay
#i swear to god it's like my car knows whenever it's tax time#like 'hey can i have some money pwease? pweaaaaase just a thousand dollars for new brakes pretty pwease?!'#i guess!!!!!!#i kinda need 'em#jokes on you though because i haven't even filed my taxes yet#i'm gonna have to wait until next week when i get paid but they said i should be able to drive on them for maybe another month as they are#i had other stuff i was gonna do today but given the circumstances i decided to just park my ass back at home#mostly i've been trying to do some ~research of the local libraries to prepare for school which is starting....soon#but i'll just have to postpone my research for the time being#it's funny too because i was watching a tiktok the other day of 'what to do if your breaks fail'#i even almost scrolled past it but something told me to go back and watch#and now i guess i know why#fortunately i haven't had to use that information just yet#but dear god today whenever i put on the breaks it sounds like thunder#just a terrible sound for a car to make#prior to that all that happened was my break light kept coming on whenever i accelerated#it would go off once i'd been rolling for a little bit or sometimes if i'd ease off the gas and then accelerate again#and when i tried to research it myself that's where i got the break fluid thing from#really hoped it was going to be that simple but it never is!!#that's just the rules!!#so anyway that's how my weekend's starting off#not great tbh but it could be a lot worse so i'm just gonna be grateful this is something i can fix#(even if i really don't want to)#and just move on with it and hope nothing else tears up on this goddamn car#because it wasn't that long ago i had to take it in for something else so....#if i could go like....mmm a year maybe before i need any more expensive ass repairs i'd really appreciate it#tires i'm looking you straight in the eye don't you even think about it#i did have my follow up with my urologist today also and they did another x-ray#she said she doesn't see the stone anymore so i believe it did in fact pass so that's some good news !!#we're just gonna keep an eye on the one that's on the other side and still in my kidney

does anyone have that ‘sometimes things that are expensive… are worse’ meme on hand. because the branding company we’re working with is pissing me off
#they sent us like a legitimately 100+ slide presentation laying out the guidelines for the new branding#and yet when we send them our assets for review they keep kicking them back with edits stating apparent rules that like. THEIR PREVIOUS#EXAMPLES CONTRADICT. like this is insane can you guys make your choices internally first before trying to enforce them on us plz#also just A) these people are not taking into consideration that we have a LOT of older patrons and they are making some of the text sizes#way too small to be readable at a distance for those with less than perfect eye sight. and also just it kinda looks like when the pixies#took over fairyworld in FOP. like comparing our season stuff from all summer to this new stuff. but anyway—#grandpa max is god? i go to church now#also this is a joke in terms of ‘i dont actually need the meme’ im just too busy to look it up. yet needed to bitch

decent comics today actually (<girl who only reads x-men and absolute)
#that's not true#out of 14 of today's comics i read 6 were not x-men or absolute#as a rule i read x-men and absolute but there are exceptions#the power fantasy because. i don't need to explain that one#new champions because i thought it was a new marvel thing that isn't related to any specific corner of the universe#(there's context i missed from spider woman i think but i'm on issue 3 now nad i don't just drop series so I'm “stuck” with it)#the main one world under doom book because i'm not keeping up with the actual event but i don't want to be completely out of the loop#tva for the same reason as new champions (except here i'm missing loki season 2 context)#and deadpool/wolverine is arguably an x-men book#so that makes it 5/14 non-x-men/absolue books#and finally high republic adventures#i've stopped keeping up woth the initiative but i'm still reading that one idk why#there were a lot of comics out today tho#usually it's mostly x-men

Going through a straight up comical amount of irritating situations to get the stupid 4* guaranteed ticket from the welcome to sekai campaign. It Will Be Mine.
#I’m resuming this tomorrow it’s been hours now I’m just mad#I’m home because my parents are moving to a different state and I needed to pack whatever was left#and for some reason we just keep old devices when we’re done with them#so I borrow an adapter to allow me to connect my ancient unworking iPad mini to my laptop#factory reset it. i have to reset an old email to access the old Apple id to fully reset it.#it won’t connect to the wifi so I have to reset the settings. i find out it’s too old to run pjsk.#i find an old phone that should work. i reset it as well. I’m able to download pjsk & it takes 20 minutes.#pjsk crashes everytime I try to open it. i attempt to run bluestacks on my computer. bluestacks doesn’t have 64 bit for mac yet.#i get a free trial of parallels and download windows onto my laptop. this takes 40 minutes.#i try to download and run bluestacks on that. m1 macs apparently can’t run bluestacks 64 bit through parallels.#i go find the final old phone that I had forgotten about. it takes forever to charge because the charging port is fucked up. i reset it as#well. it can’t connect to wifi. i try a hotspot on my current phone. service is too awful. i try to do wifi sharing from my laptop.#you have to be connected to the router via a cable for that to work.#at this point it has been like 3 hours. I’m giving up because I’ve been down this route before#when I attempted to run 32 bit steam games on m1 mac#(wine64 doesn’t exist for m1 macs yet -> attempt to run boot camp -> boot camp isn’t a thing anymore on Apple silicon -> attempt to run#several different programs that allow me to run windows on a mac. none of them work. ->#look into linux & give up. -> attempt to implement the unfinished/unbottled wine64 code thru terminal. ->#fuck up and delete some important file & have to fix that (misery inducing) -> keep trying. i think I downloaded a Mac coding program at#some point? i realize I have zero coding knowledge and this is a mistake. -> give up and purchase crossover. game doesn’t even work. ->#3 months later update to the latest OS so I can have enough storage to play psychonauts 2. find out the $60 crossover#purchase was a bad idea because ‘heehee crossover doesn’t work on that buy the new version’ (fuck crossover).#my toxic trait is my belief that I can figure out anything via google and sheer stubbornness. usually this is true. occasionally there are#exceptions to this rule. most of them are because owning Apple products is a mistake.#i think if I reset the router tomorrow I can solve this problem but I can also just go elsewhere with better service or wait until I’m home#now it’s a matter of pride. and also free 4*/I have nothing better to do because I’m stuck here until Tuesday.#<- this is all normal behavior by the way. who doesn’t spend 8 hours ramming their head against a problem every once and a while. enrichment#mine#oh I forgot. i also looked into cloning the app but that would cost money for something that might not even work.#‘just log out and make an alt’ and risk losing my account?

the places where i think religion made me Weird are i think morally doing (consensual) fucked up shit to corpses is fine but i find the actual processes of embalming and cremation to be violating and disgusting on an instinctual level. and also i think judaica tattoos are insanely tacky if not outright disrespectful even when other jews get them. and generally seeing tattoos in jewish spaces is a weird feeling. but overall i am i think a chill guy for being considerably more religious (or idk, knowing/caring more about religion) than the average person. idc about promiscuity or gender roles or whatever. i just feel guilty every time i eat shrimp.
#just very used to the idea that tattoos are fundamentally unjewish#but like none of this is smth id say something judgmental to somebody over#it's just hangups i notice i have bc of my upbringing#it's also like... i am not particularly religious by Jewish standards#i mean jewish standards are totally all over the place- im an outstanding jew compared to holiday only jews#but a terrible jew by orthodox standards given that i don't keep kosher or observe traditional rules around the sabbath etc etc#but for christains like as far as i can tell half their rules r shit they made up that isn't in the new testament#like they don't approach religious rules in at all the same way (technically don't they just do the ten commandments?)#it seems to be more about how much time you put into religion than how observant you are bc theres not. as much to observe right?#like i think a christian teenager that goes to church every sunday and goes to dinner with old church ladies on the reg#probably they are Very Religious and also prolly sheltered#but me a jew who does that im not even a proper mensch#also being interfaith makes it weird and just not having good extended family in general#my mom is very passionate about judaism but her mom dgaf and all the other extended family is christian#so all i got is like stories about my dead greatgrandparents and all the stuff my mom picked up from them#nobody speaks yiddish or hebrew fluently. there's no objects rlly passed down bc my grandma was ashamed of her judaism. that kind of thing.#all of my jewish culture comes from synagogue and it was similar for my mom growing up too
