I turned 47 yesterday. Technically Gen X (by a few months). I might as well be getting ready for that 55+ community with this bit of info right here.

Wait. FIREFLY is being rebooted & it's going to be animated?! I...

Shalom, earth friends 🌍✨ This week, so many of us felt the emotional gravitational pull of moon joy from the epic #Artemis II mission. Inspired by the cross-cultural moon convo, here are some of my fave #Jewish moon stories, traditions, and rituals! 🌕 #jewishlearning #judaism youtu.be/lR1_VzbxHT4

Grilled cheese (cheddar & gruyere) on sprouted grain with gardein chikn. I'm full...but have to find room for that b&w over there...

This is me...waiting for 8:12pm like 💭 🍞🥐🍕🍝🎂🧁🍰🍪 IYKYK

I honestly feel sad for the Youths that they don’t know the feeling of going to a video store and wandering around looking for stuff to watch. It’s not the same as scrolling.

This makes so much sense. Now let me whip out decades of medical records from tests, surgeries, and more doctors than I can even remember to make it all make sense. (There is so much that drs cannot figure out, the gaslighting is overwhelming.) I'm exhausted on every level.

The Talmud fucking slaps.

what they should have said is בָּרוּךְ יוֹצְרֵךְ בָּרוּךְ עוֹשֵׂךְ בָּרוּךְ קוֹנֵךְ בָּרוּךְ בּוֹרְאֵךְ:

Shalom friends! Bread.
Yes, bread! In the middle of #Passover!? Rude. And ironic timing, but stay with me. Let’s follow the #talmud’s breadcrumbs to…a wheat field, some magicians, and a wise woman. Welcome to #DafReactions Menachot 85: Bread And Sorcery 🥖✨ #DafYomi youtu.be/2dOmWxUh9rw

both of these people are left-wing antisemites. The second one more than the first, but both of them regardless. And note that neither of these posts have shit to do with Israel so you can’t say that this is actually just anti-Zionism. This is left-wing antisemitism plain and simple.

I can't imagine how many conspiracy theories will pop up from this. I wonder how this will be spun into antisemitic backlash as people rush to suppress facts about their family's history. Possibly worst: I wonder how many will find their family's involvement as a source of pride.

When people tell me how their grandparents / fellow [insert country's citizens here] "helped" Jews during the Holocaust, and then go off about "righteous amongst the nations" (who yes, are an important part of history) instead of looking at who didn't help at all, the erasure makes me want to scream

If anyone is having a “Christian Seder” without Jews: consider having someone reinact the part where devout mobs of Christians break the door down, drag you away, and torture/SA you and set fire to your village for (checks notes) observing Passover 1/

This is treif. This doesn't get an "at least you tried". This gets you a visit from a bathroom demon, at best.

March 31, 2023...9 Nisan 5783...Sota 02. I may have started late, but I'm so grateful I started. Forever grateful to @miriamanzovin.bsky.social for the encouragement to finally fuckin golem.

In case I forget to post this between now and seder, Chag #Pesach Sameach, fam. #Passover youtu.be/M7_2WtzqvzM?...

The four types of children (wrong answers only, but inspired by my nieces): Wicked fans. K-pop Demon Hunters. Disney Princesses. I just want to be my own person (but don't want to get bullied!)

Hot ones...but better!

these are not the same thing, Walmart

Shalom friends, Thank you for calling the #ElderMillennialsofZion healthcare hotline, ambulance edition 🚑 Your call is important to us, please remain on the line….👀 we just need to put some fires out real quick. #JewishAmbulances

"Antisemitic violence is a false flag" is the Buy Now Pay Later of Holocaust denial send skeet

Shalom friends! Remember the case of the elephant who 💩 out a wicker basket in Bava Batra? LOL how could one forget? Well basket-breaking news: The 🐘is back for a number 2 appearance. Welcome to #DafReactions Menachot 69: Going Through A Wolf? Just Keep Going! youtu.be/Wf0VXYABz7w

Like Jeopardy, here is the answer. The question is really important. Oh, shavua tov, fam.

Shabbat shalom, fam. Rest, recover, and may we find a more peaceful world on the flipside.

indicated that as part of the Exodus from Egypt, the Israelites, for the first time, controlled their time and had achieved freedom. May you find freedom this month from anything that might be enslaving you.

i'm not fucking forgetting

Shalom friends! This minisode moment has been living in my head rent free for a few days now. Let’s talk about it! Welcome to #DafReactions Minisode Menachot 62: Dueling Satan With A Lulav (!?!) #DerringDoNot #dafyomi #Talmud youtube.com/shorts/qLCDo...

Special greetings for today: Shabbat begins tonight. Most synagogues, schools & organizations continue to provide for the highest level of security possible. You can ignore a false meme going around suggesting people stay away from services.

Not a cute post...but seriously, I want off this timeline. I was wrong about when I said I prefer masks off / that I want to know who is antisemitic and proud of it. I want to go back to when people were ashamed of being antisemitic bigots / when antisemitism wasn't as normal as it is now.

Sure rile up the people who have *checks notes* a long and noteworthy track record of flipping their shit when they determine their rights are being trodden on Yes, in New England, Dunks is a right.

Another year, another Purim I won't be able to bake hamentaschen (I used to do 500 in 3 days for my baskets. Now I lack the energy and finances to bake even one batch). Things taken away from you...your health (mind and body), your friends, your family...is felt the hardest on holidays.

In the biblical Book of Esther, humans, particularly women, are the heroes. God doesn't even make an appearance. This is our reminder: YOU were put here to make miracles happen. Go forth and do it!

The AI Purim pastries I have seen since coming out if what I thought was a peaceful Shabbat have been wild. Meanwhile, I really want to go to a Megilla reading this year, but don't have anywhere or anyone to go with. (Being disabled, sick, and isolated is *hard*.)

The men are back at it again

The Lubavitcher Rebbe, a Holocaust (and Soviet) survivor, told a Jewish journalist in the 70s that fascists could be back in power "tomorrow morning", and the guy thought he was off the wall.

If you’re still on X, even to keep an account as a placeholder, you’re contributing oxygen to a vile and hateful entity run by a vile and hateful man

This video slaps...

There would be so many things I wouldn't have to explain, and that just would mean everything. (Met Gala 2018)

This is perfection.

Just making a moment to have some Jewish joy: -USA hockey (women) won gold and had Aerin Frankel in goal. -USA hockey (men) made it to the finals because Quinn Hughes scored OT goal. -USA hockey (men) won gold after Jack Hughes scored OT goal. Shout out to Jeremy Swayman. #FROZENCHOSEN 🥇🏒🥇

R Yehuda HaNasi be like: (even though he was...wrong).

Happy Rosh Hashanah to Asians only

This lives in my head rent free (because I would never charge rent for such a great story).

In 1862, General Ulysses Grant expelled Jews from his military district during the Civil War, a move reversed by President Lincoln. In 2026, Candace Owens praised Grant’s expulsion. And this week, a now ex-member of Trump’s Religious Liberty Commission wouldn’t tell me whether that was antisemitic.

It's a mystery why they wouldn't run my Super Bowl commercial for ShammAI, the only LLM that tells you that your question is stupid and you should be able to figure this out yourself

Shalom friends! Enjoy this blog I wrote for Reboot, a case study in adapting tales from a deeply patriarchal tradition, shaped by male storytellers, into modern feminist Midrash…while STILL having each plot twist and character trait rooted in those same ancient texts! rebooting.com/article/jewi...

Shalom friends! Geo returns for another epic chevruta session! On this episode: why the GEHENNOM were people trying to walk right into the Holy of Holies without KNOCKING??? Seriously! That’s just basic courtesy! Welcome to Miriam & Geo Learn Menachot 27: Peanut Butter & Jelly youtu.be/I5MQVXNzYvI
