So I recently got a foster cat and she is the sweetest and snuggliest cat you could ever meet, but I have been learning how to chant Torah and she absolutely fucking hates it. Every time I try to practice, she starts pawing at me and biting me. I can't believe I adopted an antisemite.

Still working on that Kabbalat Shabbat service.
Google reminder that reads "print you didn't have fish" instead of "print Yedid Nefesh"

I needed to make sure I had the right sheet music for the Kabbalat Shabbat service that I'm leading, but this isn't quite what I had in mind.
Google alert that says "print out lcada Daddy." It's misheard "print out L'Kha Dodi."

This one's a double-whammy of misheard reminders, but one is way funnier than the other.
Two voice-to-text reminders that Google heard incorrectly. One reads "remind Jeff about touch butt" and the other reads "write my top Shabbat email."

Pesach out here making me look like the kinda person who buys followers or something.
A Google reminder erroneously titled "sell my comments."

When your version of "tapering down" from the Islamophobia around you is saying that Muslims shouldn't exist.
Post from @zinniajones.com: "I literally started my entire internet thing in 2008 doing YouTube atheism and LGBT secularism and called myself the queen of atheism and only tapered down because everyone in the community became irrational, Islamophobic, antifeminist, misogynist, transphobic and Gamergate and alt-right"

This one was about B'ruchim HaBa'im.
Screenshot of a Google task. It reads: "send an email about Veronika buying," a misinterpretation of a Hebrew voice-to-text note.

Ah, yes—not overusing claims of antisemitism has always been of utmost priority from the ADL. /s
Perhaps the most generous read is to imagine that, in a time in which antisemitism seems likely to spike, the ADL wants to make sure that the accusation is not sapped of its power by overuse.

You: How are your High Holy Day preparations going? Do you feel ready to lead services this week?
Me: No, but I'm using my time wisely.

Someone on Facebook was talking some bullshit about Harris "sleeping her way to the top" and someone else responded with this which is... a very, very good point. You know, on account of Trump's "sexual history" (of being a perpetrator).
Imagine being a Trump supporter and listing Kamala Harris’s sexual history as a reason not to support her.

Bold to invoke the whole "self-hating Jews" thing while copping for a guy who intends to blame Jews for his political losses.
To be fair, he was trying to get the point across that Democrats are no friend of Israel and voting them in puts Israel at risk. I have seen quite a lot of self-loathing within the far left Jewish community. He wasn't isolating Jews as the culprits for the outcome of the election. He was warning that without the support of Jewish people in the election it could have an effect on the outcome which he feels will harm Israel.

Literally just opened Bluesky because I saw this on Facebook and had to close the app.
Israel is testing all the weapons the declining West plans to wield against an increasingly discontent world. Gaza and Lebanon are the laboratories. They are the prefigurations of the colonial hell that awaits all people who dare to resist.

Managed to slide just under the 1M mark to technically qualify as a Bluesky Elder. Honestly, I'm just surprised I've been here a whole year.

I really need you to know the context of this story though.
At the time, the only thing I knew about gay men was that they preferred men to women. This described me perfectly: I disliked girls, and my best friend in the world was my buddy Bill. Oh no, I’m going to hell. I broached this issue with Mamaw, confessing that I was gay and I was worried that I would burn in hell. She said, “Don’t be a fucking idiot, how would you know that you’re gay?” I explained my thought process. Mamaw chuckled and seemed to consider how she might explain to a boy my age. Finally she asked, “J.D., do you want to suck dicks?” I was flabbergasted. Why would someone want to do that? She repeated herself, and I said, “Of course not!” “Then,” she said, “you’re not gay. And even if you did want to suck dicks, that would be okay. God would still love you.” That settled the matter. Apparently I didn’t have to worry about being gay anymore. Now that I’m older, I recognize the profundity of her sentiment: Gay people, though unfamiliar, threatened nothing about Mamaw’s being

Always suspicious of this kind of framing.
But other Zionists held much more sensible views, and were willing to settle for far less. David Ben-Gurion and the majority of Zionists embraced in 1947 the U.N. partition plan that mandated the establishment of a Palestinian state alongside a Jewish state. It was Palestinian rejection of this plan that led to the eruption of the first Arab-Israeli War (1948-1949).
