Ma’oz Tzur

Ma’oz Tzur is a popular Hanukkah song across most of the Jewish world 

“Ma'oz Tzur” is thought to have been written in the 13th century, during the Crusades. The first letters of the first five stanzas form an acrostic of the composer’s name, Mordechai (the five Hebrew letters מרדכי). He may have been the Mordecai ben Isaac ha-Levi who wrote the Sabbath table-hymn “Mah Yafit”, or even the scholar referred to in the Tosafoth to Talmud (Bavli) Niddah 36a. Or, to judge from the appeal in the closing verse, he may have been the Mordecai whose father-in-law was martyred at Mayence (now Mainz, Germany) in 1096.  (x)

Two fair men lie in water warm and slow,

As brothers are they joinēd heart to heart;

But Cupid hath not struck them with his bow;

Lest that be thought, they sit five feet apart.

ABSOLUTELY NOT! THIS IS UNACCEPTABLY CUTE

[saidikye]

Good to know that sea turtles are the oceans version of cats

[harmonic-motion]

Wow.  At first I was like, “Wait a minute, how they gonna nap underwater?  Don’t they need to BREATHE?”  So I looked it up and “A resting or sleeping turtle can remain underwater for 4-7 hours.”  Holy cow!
