❛ you say beetlejuice three times. and i’ll say candyman five times. then we get them to fight. ❜

❛ that’s your face? oh, i thought it was a mask. ❜

❛ if you ever get scared, you can hold my hand. ❜

❛ how late do you think the blood bank stays open? ❜

❛ what slasher do you think you could take? in a fight, i mean. ❜

❛ and the walls will ooze green slime?! wait, they always do that. ❜

❛ holy shit, you should have seen the look on your face! ❜

❛ these pumpkins may be tiny, but they give so much serotonin. ❜

❛ on halloween we dress as skeletons. but in reality, skeletons dress as us. ❜

❛ do you believe in ghosts? ❜

❛ i think we’re being followed. ❜

❛ well, one of us is going to have to change. ❜

❛ don’t tell me you’re afraid of the dark. ❜

❛ we’re not alone. ❜

❛ i see dead people. ❜

❛ scream for me, my little banshee. ❜

❛ i said, look behind you. ❜

❛ do you think ghosts ask if they believe in humans? ❜

❛ i heard the houses here give out huge candy bars. ❜

❛ it’s like we’re too old to trick or treat and too young to die. ❜

❛ hey you need a… hand? ❜

❛ halloween is the perfect day to hide a body in plain sight. ❜

❛ it’s just a mask, don’t worry! ❜

❛ have you picked out a costume yet? ❜

❛ i can read your fortune. it says you’re a nerd. ❜

❛ get in loser, we’re going to spirit halloween. ❜

❛ did that ghost just spell ‘get out’ wrong? ❜

❛ if you can’t summon the flames directly from hell, store bought is fine. ❜

❛ if a zombie apocalypse started on halloween, it would take a while to realize. ❜

❛ you frightened me. do it again. ❜

❛ wanna see something scary? ❜

❛ i came here expecting a trick, but you’re a real treat. ❜

❛ i don’t think we should be here. ❜

❛ maybe i’ll summon a demon so i can hang out with someone. ❜

❛ what i want to be for halloween is loved. ❜

❛ what’s your favorite scary movie? ❜

❛ i’ve seen enough horror movies to know where this is going. ❜

❛ some people have swimming pools, other people have private cemeteries. ❜

❛ they really need to add bloopers at the end of horror movies. ❜

❛ you alright? you look like you’ve seen a ghost. ❜

❛ that’s fake blood, right? ❜

❛ i could have sworn we were just here. ❜

❛ do not say we should split up. ❜

❛ did the eyes in that painting just move? ❜

❛ i think it’s found us. ❜

❛ scared? i’m not scared. ❜

❛ you can’t help the dead. they’re beyond help. ❜

❛ whatever you do, don’t look behind you. ❜

❛ i think i’m getting pretty good at this pumpkin carving business. ❜

❛ the scariest thing about halloween is that rent is due the next day. ❜

❛ …and they were never heard from again. ❜

❛ i know this isn’t your area of expertise, but is this guy dead? ❜

❛ why does that grave have your name on it? ❜

❛ i could really go for a hot chocolate right now. ❜

i’m gonna be glib in this post for comedy’s sake but i’ve seen enough around tumblr and social media in general to think that this needs to be said, so i’m saying it: your character probably shouldn’t be ‘practicing’ kabbalah. 

your character probably shouldn’t have anything to do with kabbalah. and this isn’t a matter of ‘just research it and be respectful, if you read enough and you’re mindful you’ll be good to go’ - because you can’t research it respectfully. judaism is a closed culture, and while i’m all for the push to write jewish characters, simply throwing kabbalah in tells me that more research needs to be done. because you, as the writer, should probably not be accessing the zohar or other writings, since these are meant to be read after decades of torah study for proper context. and i don’t wanna get into age limitations on access to religious texts on the wide open internet because that’s a conversation for the jewish community, but to be clear i don’t want anyone coming onto this post with ‘there have been young kabbalists!’ because yes but that’s not anyone’s business outside of young jews talking to their rabbis about their formal religious studies. 

because kabbalah is religious. i haven’t read the texts because i’m not a middle aged torah scholar, but even a general understanding from living as a jewish person and having these conversations has taught me that kabbalah is a way of understanding g-d and performing mitzvot. it is not ‘witchcraft’, and if you want to classify it as ‘mysticism’, it’s absolutely not in any sort of h*rry p*tt*r sense of the word. if the people who actively study and practice it view it as ‘magic’, that’s their call to make. but kabbalah is not a book of jewish spells, and i’ve seen a lot of gentile witches appropriating it, believing it to be such, and that is flying awfully close to the blood libel sun. it reads to me as the ‘positive’ and faux-supportive version of, ‘jews have secret ancient magic that they do in their basements,’ with the end goal being appropriation instead of extermination. and it’s hard to talk about this without speaking for all jews, in the way it’s hard to talk about anything jewish online without becoming a mouthpiece that erases a rainbow of jewish experiences, but for goyim at least maybe the Secret Ancient Jewish Magic angle is not a good one. and it may scare a lot of atheists or people who think ‘abrahamic’ ( help! ) monotheism is Icky but those texts are… to bring you closer to… g-d. to live in a more g-dly way. and the blurry line between secular and sacred judaism is, again, not a conversation that gentiles need to be taking part in.

but since i have yet to see a middle aged jewish rper writing a deeply religiously jewish character - aka someone who would want to seek out kabbalah beyond doing it for the Secular Online Witchcraft Aesthetic of it all, which is especially not a good look if you’re a non-jew writing a jewish person - and have definitely not seen someone writing an actively practicing jew over forty - the age you technically need to be to study kabbalah - there’s really no excuse for incorporating it at all.

tl;dr: kabbalah isn’t witchcraft, the culture is closed, you more likely than not cannot actively portray what kabbalah is without reading material you do not have the appropriate respectful context for, and if you are an older adult torah scholar in the tumblr rpc ( maybe there’s One out there ) then you probably already know that that’s not something you should be sharing online for aesthetic writey blog. if you’re jewish and wanna argue with me 1) argue with your rabbi first 😤 ( joke but i do dare you ) and 2) you can inbox / dm me bc i’m not having religious conversations in the open this is a and b jew talk and gentiles can c themselves out. you may reblog but please don’t clown.

@cultreviews what if we kissed in the moral grey area of having complete control of someone’s image pre- and post-mortem

[eurosleazarc]

what if we traversed the new age graveyard that is the internet and kissed under the digital moon while eyes that are ours and simultaneously not ours watched from the shadows?

[leavyes-a]

what if we recorded our finest material on cellulose because we knew the promise of digital restoration was too good to be true and as we creep inexorably towards a future of digital obsolescence where we no longer have the means to access old stored data we had to choose whether to rot in the real world with our ancestors or to place our hopes in the collective mass media consciousness, nouveau oral tradition, stranded between accessible memory that decays or inaccessible memory that was never alive in the first place? and we both had eyes lining our skulls? 😳

“ur overthinking this” bro I have anxiety. I have no other type of thinking available

[jackcardiffs]

“Why do people go to the cinema? What takes them into a darkened room where, for two hours, they watch the play of shadows on a sheet? The search for entertainment? The need for a kind of drug? All over the world there are, indeed, entertainment firms and organisations which exploit cinema and television and spectacles of many other kinds. Our starting-point, however, should not be there, but in the essential principles of cinema, which have to do with the human need to master and know the world. I think that what a person normally goes to the cinema for is time: for time lost or spent or not yet had. He goes there for living experience; for cinema, like no other art, widens, enhances and concentrates a person’s experience—and not only enhances it but makes it longer, significantly longer. That is the power of cinema: ‘stars’, story-lines and entertainment have nothing to do with it.”

— Andrei Tarkovsky, Sculpting In Time (1987)

levi is pre-t and does not want to go on testosterone and considered top surgery enough for himself to feel mostly non-dysphoric and he’s thriving in that way.

i needed to focus on what i know: namely, that the films i watch align with my personal experience that every woman i have ever met in my entire life is completely crazy, in one way or another.    ©
