me when someone asks “what’s wrong with you??”

The neurological explanations for PTSD/CPTSD are too poetic, what do you mean the person gets essentially trapped in their memory?? Next time I’d like something more mechanical, thanks!! 🙏

if you found this children’s book unsettling when you were young….what allergen did you have to cut out of your diet to try and address the mysterious chronic pain that showed up in your early 20’s??

Next time a man tells you his ex “went crazy” just send him this (Sotah 2a)

Jerusalem: *is sacked and destroyed, leaving total devastation* Lamentations: “what are we?? A bunch of women?!?”

Eicha (How?)

it’s funny to see what kind of life events warrant a meal train to a community — babies, surgeries, stuff like that…never anything like “please consider buying a meal for Nutz, she is re-experiencing 30+ years of memories that point to evidence that her parents should have just gotten a dog.”

you vs the girl he tells you not to worry about:

what’s the most creative way you’ve been neg-bombed? I’ll go first:

Time to play a fun game show I like to call: “Have I Been Hit With The Heaviness Of The Realization That I Have To Grieve For Myself, Or Do I Just Need A Glass Of Water?”

I contain multitudes…

my chaplaincy professor: “biblical texts will help can help to give your patients the language to express their pain” me, thinking of Jeremiah 20:15-16: “ok I think I see your point” my professor (probably?): no not like that

Okay, I'm stealing this usage. "Would you be able to join our prayer group today? We need enough numbers for a mambo." "Uh, don't you mean minyan?" "I said what I said."

Not Urban Outfitters profiting off of Sukkot smh 😒 (“Limited Time Only” indeed…)

A great gift for all new parents…Baby’s First Tisha B’Av :)

Analects of Confucius 2.4 // Pirkei Avot 5:21

my favorite coloring page is the one with compassionate mothers cooking their own children 😍🖍️

Wowwwww. I know this needs to be AI but who doesn't want a Tisha B'Av coloring book.

Tisha B’Av: fun for the whole family!! 🙂

honestly plugging the names of Jewish holidays into sites like Etsy or Redbubble never disappoints… Blessings and Shalom to you all as well!!

Alright…who the f*ck signed me up for promotional emails from a potato farm???? 😭

the people were ASTONISHED at her doctrine

oh you’re a fan of The LORD?? Name thirteen of his attributes

Ecclesiastes:

Although the fireworks are AFTER Shabbat is over.

“It must always be remembered that the Sabbath is not an occasion for diversion or frivolity; not a day to shoot fireworks or to turn somersaults, but an opportunity to mend our tattered lives; to collect rather than to dissipate time.” - July 4 wisdom from “The Sabbath” by Abraham Joshua Heschel

so many Jewish thinkpieces: the biggest THREAT to the JEWISH PEOPLE is INTERMARRIAGE and therefore we must invest ALL OUR RESOURCES PRODUCING JEWISH BABIES every article about the “Yichud Room”: the whole wedding stops for the bride and groom to spend “symbolic” time alone together…how nice 😊

If you told me that King David died because he was trampled by horses I would absolutely believe you. Imagine being born and bred for the sole purpose of going places you don’t want to go while carrying weight you don’t want to carry, all for some ungrateful king to say it doesn’t even matter??

King David: *writes Psalm 33* Horse: hey now why am I in it??

and for the tomorrow and tomorrow and tomorrow that is creeping in, perhaps a slower pace?

Bunnies may be very low on the food chain of the wild, but they are unmatched on the hierarchy of side eye abilities

I think this is why I posted the thing about the hand towels in the first place. It was hilarious to me that he always forgot them given how he went above and beyond with everything else

Concept: a PJ Library “paid” tier, but you’re actually paying to get LESS books per month

Let this be a lesson to all BlueSky users: if a post has subsequent thoughts attached, they may carry relevant context and be worth reading before you reply. Hope this helps!!

The towels are also designed by Marimekko so you know his wife doesn’t fuck around when it comes to bathroom linens 👌💯

There are many great things that have happened since my friend got married. The top two are: 1. He is getting everything he has wanted out of life. 2. He now has hand towels in his bathrooms every single time.

🎶 Sometimes, I think it’s a shame when I get feelin’ better when I’m feeling no pain 🎶

I don’t regret leaving X when I did, but I do get kind of sad about losing the whole archive of wild shit I said from 2019-2025

One thing about my mom is that no child of HER’S is going to fail to stand their ground in front of a camera 🙅‍♀️

Unless…some kind soul in New York would be willing to pick them up for me and find a cheaper option for sending them to me?? 👉🥺👈

I went searching for “Jewish magnets” online and I don’t know what I was expecting to find, but somehow I found this site that offers a collection that is beyond my wildest dreams:

someone should make an app where you can report corners with active canvassers so that other people know to avoid that intersection

This is still going on weeks later. It seems like I am too hot at work and burdened with extra layers to carry home every day except the days that I say to myself “I am always too hot at work, I don’t want to carry an extra layer today”

I thought I was running out of my sunscreen so I bought a new one only to find that I had much more left than I thought. I wrote a note to myself on the cap so I wouldn’t forget and accidentally buy another one. I feel like the guy in Memento.

Sounds like a job for ol’ Nutz

I showed my mom my new shirt and she told me it should be motivation for me to learn to drive 🤭
