בצו הראשון שלי, הייתי 161. עליתי על המכשיר מדידת גובה בלייזר.

Cannot Stress Enough how important it is to read Howl’s Moving Castle written by Diana Wynn Jones immediately after watching Howl’s Moving Castle directed by Hayao Miyazaki. When he made the movie he was of course upset with war and thus included it in the film, but you gotta understand. You really Gotta Understand. Every time in the movie where Howl turns the door dial black to travel to an absolutely hellish warscape? You know where that same dial takes him in the book? The Real World Country Of Wales

Fun fact! The 'if I forget Jerusalem may I forget my right hand and may my tonguestick to the roof of my mouth' is actually a thing that can happen! Your left hemisphere is controlling both the right part of your body and your language function. The saying basically says 'if I forget Jerusalem, I must have brain damage'. Obviously the ancient people didn't know it was *brain* damage, but it was a thing that happened to people

If you ask a non-jew what is the symbol of a Jewish wedding they will say it's breaking a glass. But why?

What you don't know is that when the groom breaks the glass the couple are already married. The rabbi has technically already pronounced them husband and wife (though there isn't really that part in a Jewish wedding).

The glass is crushed to represent the grief of the destruction of the temple. The groom says "If I forget you Jerusalem may my right hand be lost, may my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't remember you and don't put Jerusalem at the top of my joy" (my translation) Even at the happiest event of our lives we will always remember Jerusalem and Zion (i.e Israel) and how it was destroyed and how we were exiled from it. Then and only then, you may kiss the bride.

The verse is from the same psalm that starts with "By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion"

This has been Jewish tradition for over 2,000 years and it doesn't matter if it was Jews in Europe, Africa, Asia - we always yearned to return to the land of Israel.

So if you say we aren't indiginous to the land of Israel or that we have no claim to the land, you need to educate yourself.

Translation:

Child's voice: what a beautiful sky. Cool, a shooting star

*missile threat siren start blaring*

Child: fuck, not a shooting star, not a shooting star

הופ! ילדות ישראלית. 🪁

אני רואה אקס מן וזה ממש לא ראליסטי שמגנטו לא עלה לארץ. הוא כל הזמן מדבר על איך שהמוטנטים (שזה מטאפורה ליהודים) צריכים להתאחד וזה ממש. מדינת ישראל. אתה ניצול שואה. למה אתה גר באמריקה? ואפילו כשהוא בורח מאמריקה הוא בורח לפולין. אני מבינה שהוא מדבר פולנית אבל ישראל! מדינת היהודים! למה הוא לא חי שם?

בנוסף באחד הסרטים יש חנוכיה עם 7 קנים (כמו מנורה) + מדליקים את זה מנר נוסף (כמו שמש). מארוול לא יכלו לשלם ליהודי אחד לראות את הסרט? באמת?

I was sad because I finished watching daredevil: born again and read almost all the fanfiction (you do not understand. If a fic is good, and isn't frank/matt or another ship I dislike, I read it. If a fic is bad, I probably read half of it.) but then I remembered I can read the comics. I have so much daredevil to read. So much of this stupid man who makes bad decisions but is so complicated. Yes it is stupid that you aren't telling your girlfriend that you are daredevil after all the things that happened with Foggy and Karen, but I get why he does that. Incredible.

Made from trash and glue. He is a distinguished gentleman and I love him

Am I the only one that was not terrified enough by the midnight thing? It being behind you is so much less scary then it being IN you, a perfect mimic, even better than you at being you. Terrifying. I had the midnight thing in my nightmares. This is just very scary, not so terrifying it makes your skin crawl.

IT’S NOT ‘PEEKED’ MY INTEREST

OR ‘PEAKED’

BUT PIQUED

‘PIQUED MY INTEREST’

THIS HAS BEEN A CAPSLOCK PSA

My favorite part of 'next year in Jerusalem' is being in Jerusalem while singing it. It's not next year. It's now.

Zionism is not evil, it is not responsible for any sins in this world, and it is certainly not a modern invention. It is the fucking foundational premise of my religion, and it has existed before your shitty country, before my shitty country, and it will continue to exist long after every one of us are dead and gone.

it's sad to see that the side characters lack depth and storytelling in this show. muse was wasted badly. heather could've talked muse out of that but instead she said he was a coward. cherry and kirsten don't interest me at all. buck ain't a wesley but he kinda did grow on me with that last scene. daniel did also grow on me after he threatened the girl bc we realize that maybe he's not the guy to mess with. tbh i have mixed feelings about this show now.
