gotta say the design decisions for the dude between postal 3 and postal 4 are kind of funny. im postal 3 he was a hot 20 something with transmasc swag but the game ended up being so shit that they decided to do a complete 180 and make him an old man with gray hairs. honestly i was a hater at first but yeah. you go girl. you go old man postal dude.

Wait. considering that Micah is Jewish... does that mean Jesus exists in your Epithet Erased AU?

Wait... Are you Jewish?

NO? I'm not Jewish, I don't resignate with any religion??

I don't want to get into this. Y'know what sure, Epithet erased has an Epithet Jesus. I'm sure Christians and churches exist too, just like Australia does.

Lilith

This is the beginning of the side/supporting character list, and descriptions. Mind that I’ve added some characters since first creating the list a bit back. Anyway here’s Lilith.

Lilith is the mother of all demons. She is mother to the 4 young princes (Mammon, Beelzebub, Asmodeus, and Belphegor). Before that she was the first woman to be created.

Lucifer watched from the walls around Eden and admired her. He’d sneak in to speak with her. He fell in love with her. Adam didn’t seem to even care about her and blatantly disrespected her existence. So, Lucifer tried to take Lilith from Eden.

God didn’t like this. So he cast away Lucifer and Lilith. They made a home for themselves in hell where they laid.

 Lilith learned soon that she had importance to the world though. Her existence in this world was to give life. This isn’t about “being a mother” no. She stepped into hell and grass began to grow. And for the world above to do the same she’d need to be there. So, she made a deal with God and her new husband. She would travel and bring life, then come home to hell. 

This version of her is heavily inspired by persephone. She’s one of my favorite gods.

alrighty folks buckle up for the fifth year of menorabilia ratings! I've scoured the internet (and my eyeballs) so get ready for the best and worst chanukah merchandise of the year

okay first I just need to get these fuckin gnomes out of the way. ideally permanently. this guy's hat has so much going on I don't know where to begin. the menorah? not kosher. also wrong. the dreidels? certainly have,,, something written on them. everyone knows reindeer love chanukah, the lighting fires holiday. 5/10 at least it's got SOMEWHAT of a cuteness factor

turning old CDs into fake sufganiyot is certainly creative bc that's the only explanation for those monstrosities that I'll accept. please don't spin your spontaneous combustion menorahs on top of your dreidels. it won't bring the next season any faster. 4/10 I'll put up with a lot if you're offering to pay for my netflix account

they are Setting That Torah On Fire. is that why there's an oil jug next to a candle menorah. 6/10 the פ instead of a ש‎ on the dreidel is because the miracle is just the torah not bursting into flames

this really puts the messy in messianic. it's got the wrong amount of branches. why is the shamash just two stacked cups. the cross looks like an airplane. oh god it also has the jesus fish. -76162802492/10 never knew a single image could contain so much No.

some of these menorahs are kosher and some are not which really spices things up. what a fun little game of I spy for me. I enjoy the addition of various happy animals celebrating chanukah but were the santa hats really necessary? 7/10 that bottom dreidel has two נ‎s. none dreidel with left coins.

I can acknowledge that it's an attempt to jewish-ize a christmas thing but tinsel is, unfortunately, occasionally, pretty. weird choice to have all the menorahs have נ‎s but sure. what's that? those are dreidels? wrong. take a look at the helpful next image of this item.

do you see it yet? here let me help.

clearly those are menorahs. we light them on fire and spin them as fast as we can. first one to die loses. 5/10 google is your friend

move over fiddler on the roof chassidim with bottle balancing skills, here come some cats with impressive candle dexterity. this may not be a kosher menorah but their TAILS are the BRANCHES. 7/10 I am easily won over by the presence of cats okay

canon jewish representation, a spinning dreidel, a kosher menorah, some chocolate gelt, and they're eating fresh latkes. I needed these yesterday. 10/10 rugrats my beloved never lets me down

(previous years 1, 2, 3, 4)

SAY IT LOUDER!!!

i am so unbelievably tired of nobody but jewish people caring about antisemitism

i know what people mean when they say “mourning a world they thought they lived in”

i thought i lived in a world where antisemitism was treated as terrible. where people cared about antisemitism as much as they cared about, say, sexism or homophobia or any other forms of racism

but they don’t. nobody fucking cares about the jews.

im so unbelievably tired of it. im tired of literal nazi propaganda and TEXTBOOK antisemitic caricatures, stereotypes, etc are regarded as normal. im tired of fully believing you could directly copy+ paste an excerpt from mein kampf on here and it would get hundreds or thousands of notes. im tired of being scared to post something like this because im scared ill lose my friends or people who follow me. i’m so scared to post this. i really really am.

the jews are fucking tired. the jews are exhausted

Stars, like seeds, are abundant.. But there is also the isolating distance between them as they've spread. It can be lonely but hope you feel safe and loved and there's beauty in the homes we've made all over.

maybe the term “antisemitism” seems “overused” because theres so much of it

[puttingwingsonwords]

I do think the ‘comedy’ of Dracula in this part of the story only adds to the horror. Like we can all go ‘haha lizard fashion’ because it is ridiculous, he’s crawling barefoot on that wall like 🦎

But also fucking imagine a whole ass man skittering down a wall like that, the fact that his cloak is billowing like wings means he must be going fast too bc otherwise it would just fall over his head. (Or idk maybe he is using magic powers to make his cloak look cooler who knows.)

And it’s in his pretending to have servants too, I know, my most popular post rn is calling him a loser for it which he is!! He’s probably really embarrassed about it too bc it’s demeaning for a boyar to do those chores!

But Jonathan doesn’t have the luxury of laughing at this stuff.

One thing that really caught my attention this time is the uncanny valley of it all. From the moment Jonathan meets the Count, he can tell something is off. No matter how thickly he puts on the charm, Dracula can’t hide the fact that he’s not human; he’s something else, a ‘creature in the semblance of a man’, there’s something innately off-putting about his presence. His eyes, his teeth, his hands, his smell: he has the aura of a predator and Jonathan, his prey, can feel it.

From Jonathan’s point of view, every hilarious weird thing the Count does is another sign of him being Not Human, as well as the fact that he’s in total control—as his ruse of normality is slowly falling apart, but there’s still nothing Jonathan can do. The mask is slipping, the Count is revealing his true nature—whether accidentally or on purpose—and Jonathan can only watch and keep pretending in the hope that it will prolong his life.

Happy Hanukkah from the tight knit family :]

[outfoxt]

you know. I think it's going to be worse this year because the first night chanukkah is on christmas day. but I'll say it until I physically cannot speak anymore that chanukkah is not jewish christmas and if you so much as insinuate it is (while knowing better) I'll incinerate your face.
