  1. CW: Religion, Family Issues

    I just boosted some posts from my old Urusai account kind of chronicling this, but short version: I'm half Ashkenazi Jew, I grew up with some Jewish traditions alongside Christian traditions since my Mom is a Christian. After I was around 10, the Jewish traditions were basically removed at home. My Mom was performative and just...chose to be performative as an adoptive Mom at that point. Feel free to see the previous thread for more info.

    As an adult now with four kids, I decided last year to start re-embracing my Jewish ethnicity. We did some Hanukkah celebrations and had a Seder at home for Passover. I'm trying.

    My family never did much for Rosh Hashanah. We'd call my Grandparents and wish them a happy New Year. That was...about it.

    This year, I'm likely not going to do much about it with my family since it's less than a week away and I have absolutely no idea what to do with my kids to introduce them to it. Since I have no basis for how to celebrate it.

    But, anyway...I want to do something about it next year.

    It's all a learning curve.

    Anyway. Putting it out there.

  3. Mifflin County hosts a lovely downtown Ice Festival each year for the Winter Solstice, which is highly popular. This Hermit prefers visiting at 6:00 a.m. Sunday morning, so as to avoid all other humans.

  5. "#Antisemitism in our seven countries is no longer a surge; it is our new normal,” the organization said in a statement. “Governments must stop reacting after #Jews are attacked and start acting before, with real #securityfunding, stronger laws and #socialmedia platforms that enforce their own rules.”

    Fifteen Jews were #murdered at a #Hanukkah celebration on #BondiBeach in #Sydney, two were #killed at #HeatonPark #Synagogue in #Manchester on #YomKippur, two were killed at the Capital #Jewish Museum in #WashingtonDC, and one was killed in #Boulder, #Colorado.

    The figure was the highest since 1994, when 85 people — including 67 Jews — were killed in the #AMIA #bombing in #Argentina."

  6. Google may fucking suck, but... no. That's all I got. ☠️

    "A #Google executive told an inquiry on Tuesday that a #YouTube video that falsely claimed a wounded survivor of an #antisemitic massacre in #Sydney was a #crisisactor blooded with makeup had met the platform’s standards and would remain online.

    Google #Australia manager #RachelLord was testifying at a government inquiry into the spread of #antisemitism in Australia including an attack by two gunmen on a #Sydney #Hanukkah celebration in December that left 15 dead."

    Over the last decade, bakers have been experimenting with olive oil in all kinds of nontraditional ways, and I’ve been right there with them. I’ve added it to cakes, swirled it into lemon bars, even baked it into zucchini bread — all t…
