The only significant difference between heaven and hell is whether you enjoy what you’re doing. Both consist of unlimited work to do and unlimited time to achieve it, all the difference is between whether you fucking love doing it or if you fucking hate it. Think about the chocolate guy. He seems so genuinely thrilled to do what he does. Imagine being in his position yourself. Having a whole kitchen and an insane amount of chocolate in front of you and being told like “hey craft a functional 1989 Ford Fiesta out of this. With all the screws and engine parts inside. Life-sized. Capucchino flavoured, but the lamps taste like black olives (but sweet, of course).”

And you’re not allowed to leave before you figure out how to do that.

idk jokes just dont become unfunny to me. i love literally repeating the same thing over and over again. i may get bored eventually but never seriously annoyed

i rely on templates to be social a lot actually. a lot of time hanging out with friends means repeating the same phrase to eachother over and over again

many such phrases

I love the word “transgender” but it’s really been sanitized for me. Transsexual though? that one is hot. It makes cis people flinch.it’s one of those words that people write songs about. makes you feel like a rockstar.

Bonus points if you hiss it like Tim Curry does in Rocky Horror

So you want to know more about antisemitism outside the context of Nazis …

99.99999% of conspiracy theories are either rooted in antisemitism or antisemitism is a key component

Yad Vashem has a bunch of things, here’s a free online course about antisemitism:

Poke around the National Museum of American Jewish History’s site (it’s The Best Jewish museum in the US, IMO).

Handy guide with examples from social media:

Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg is great and has a number of informational threads.

On Antisemitism:

How to be a good ally around antisemitism:  1) educate yourself on its history and context, learn how it differs from (and manifests differently than) other oppressions.   1/x short thread  — Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg (@TheRaDR) December 30, 2019ALT

On Judeo-Christian and why you should delete it from your vocabulary:

“Judeo-Christian” isn’t a thing. It a) positions Jews & Christians against Muslims, is Islamophobic b) elides Christian oppression & murder of Jews over more than 1000 years & c) ignores Jewish civilization worldwide & facts of key Jewish developments in Middle East & N Africa.  — Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg (@TheRaDR) January 27, 2019ALT

On why you should stop using “Pharisees” as a pejorative:

So, if you mean as Empire, I'm with you.   But I see a lot of replies using the word "Pharisees," which a) weren't Jesus' opponent, he *was* a Pharisee having intra-communal debates w/his own people and b) if that's what was meant, it's an antisemitic dog whistle!   1/x thread https://t.co/vviO1cBrAo  — Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg (@TheRaDR) February 8, 2019ALT
PSA: "Pharisee" is an antisemitic cudgel. Jesus was a Jew arguing w/his fellow Jews abt the future of Judaism. That word has been used to murder & expel us for centuries. If you use "Pharisee" to describe Sanders you imply that Jewish law condones these atrocities. It does not.  — Rabbi Danya Ruttenberg (@TheRaDR) June 14, 2018ALT

Here’s an essay on why “fake Christian” and “not a real Christian” are harmful rhetoric:

(Look, I get the impulse. Ben Shapiro is shitbag. So are Laura Loomer, Stephen Miller, Mort Klein, etc. but No True Scotsman-ing isn’t actually helpful.)

“But Israel!” Nope. Stop right there. Explainers:

(My main critique of both of these is that they’re pretty Ashkenormative and gloss over the effect Israel’s creation had on Mizrahi Jews living in other MENA countries.)

Short thread/statement from a Palestinian activist that succinctly summarizes his distaste with folks using Palestinians to legitimize their antisemitism:

Thread from a Black Jew about how Jews are often perceived by Gentiles of Color, which is a helpful perspective on how positive stereotypes and proximity to whiteness can put marginalized communities in conflict. These conflicts doubly hurt those who belong to both:
