A spell, in Yiddish, for catching a thief by drawing an eye on a wall, placing the name of the suspected in the eye, reciting the text, and then hammering a copper nail into the eye. The image is from a segulot/refuot (charms and remedies) text currently in the Vatican archive (MS 371). 1/2

Republicans in Utah commissioned an investigation into gender-affirming care for trans youth after banning it in 2023.

They're now rejecting the findings of that investigation which showed access to care reduced suicides and improved "positive mental health and psychosocial functioning outcomes."
Utah lawmakers’ own study found gender-affirming care benefits trans youth. Will they lift the treatment ban?

Howdy! Keep an eye out from me for info on ordering postcards*!! See the postcards in the thread below. 😊😊 In the digital information age, I love how writing cards causes me to slow down & reflect on how much I cherish my human connections.

*once i figure out how to set up online sales...

Do y’all remember the BIPOC Shoot Your One-Shot series we did a few years ago? It might be time to bring that back… 🤔

Our five year (‼️) channel anniversary is at the end of June, and we’re in the mood to tell some really good stories amongst the incredible talent of the ttrpg ecosystem… hmm…

Reference photos for this piece came from pre-WWII wooden synagogues in Eastern Europe, most of which fascists burnt down. They had their own distinct architectural style, firmly rooted in the Diaspora. I want to imagine a world where buildings like this still exist, & why not slap some legs on it?

Hello all you wonderful new folks! I'm Max, a Jewish TTRPG designer based in the San Francisco area. My most well-known games are Hanukkah Goblins and soon-to-be-released Esther and the Queens!

My design touchstones are Judaism and environmentalism. My current WIP is a salmon game!
Game cover for Esther and the Queens by Max Fefer. The cover features 5 queens with Queen Esther in the center. She has a stern and confident expression, wearing a blue dress with white and gold accents. She is facing a man in a crown and a balded advisor. This is to represent King Haman from the Jewish story of Purim. Hanukkah Goblins by Max Fefer. Background is a blue sky with clouds. Foreground is five green Jewish goblins with various weapons, including a donut launcher, dreidel (Jewish top), magical wheelchair, menorah (Hanukkah candelabra).

My art for next yr’s Radical Jewish Calendar! Artificial borders/water privatization disrupt the land’s movement, but land is patient; it erodes, weathers, & retakes. What’s the viewer’s positioning in this landscape? Border enforcer? Migrant in exodus? Find gaps in the border & exert force there.
Digital collage showing prickly pear cacti climbing a broken wire fence, carrying a nearly empty water jug with them. The fence doubles as a keffiyeh. Coyotes stand silhouetted on the far side of the fence. A Jewish blessing for traveling safely while trans is written at the bottom in English and Hebrew.

I compiled a trans resource guide for Connecticut, since I noticed Uni resources were vague/excluded non-students. I haven’t updated the Legal section since december, but much is the same! Please share widely with discretion :)
