Purim - A time of change!

The days of Chodesh Adar and especially of Purim are all days of change. Big changes that changed the fate of the Jewish People. Changes that bring about good things in our lives. Adar is known to be the best month in the year for the Jewish People. 

And therefore... with this post I am also announcing a change to my blog. With the help of an amazing fellow Jumblerite we finally gave it an extreme makeover. So, you're all welcome to come and see the changes. The music is only in honor of Adar. After this month I'll take it down (until then... enjoy!). Please let us know if you come across any bugs and/or mistakes and the Tambler Rebbe's gabbe will try to fix it. Even if you don't find any, you're still welcome to let us know what you think. ;-) 

May this change be only the beginning of many more good changes for all of Klal Yisroel! So, what do you think?

In reply to an anonymous follower (here), bennistar says that Hasidim are not descendants from the Khazars. He explains that they are actually Atlanteans (as well as founders of Hogwarts..) AND HE IS ABSOLUTELY RIGHT! The only point to make is that Atlantis was in the middle of the Pacific Ocean and is now called Easter Island. The photos above show unequivocally the correlation between Hasidim and Atlantis.

You have a son??

Apparently… I also didn’t know until a few minutes ago.

I knew being mispalel at kivrei tzadikim was a powerful thing. But not that it was this powerful! xD

So there's a post on my dash saying that the Haredim who kidnapped Yossele Schumacher were in the right because his parents were secular.

Never mind that it was a fucking kidnapping, or that "it's okay to kidnap children if their parents won't raise them in the correct religion" is the exact same rationale European Christians used when they refused to return Jewish children to their parents after the Shoah.

Apparently, kidnapping is a mitzvah now.

What the actual fuck.

Hayom Yom Huledes!

  Time flies people! It's been exactly a year since the creation of my blog. On the 23rd of Iyar 5772 (May 15 2012) I entered the crazy realm of Tumblr and joined its Jewish community.  

Yesterday, just like on the night before I first joined Tumblr, we counted the 38th day of the five weeks and three days to the Omer. That day, just like today, has the attributes of Tiferes She B'Yesod. 

'Tiferes' could be translated as 'Beauty', and 'Yesod' would be 'Foundation'.  Therefore, I hope that my blog will help people see -and understand- the beauty of our people's Foundation, the Torah Hakedosha. 

May we all be zocheh to see me blogging -in this upcoming year- about the arrival of Moshiach Tzidkeinu!

B'Ahavas Yisroel, Ploni ben Nistar, aka Bennistar  PS: Oh hey, look! It's a Shtreimel cake! (May this be the year I'm going to wear a real one!)

I don't have a question, I just wanted to thank you for being you and for being on Tumblr. You seem like a very kind person. When I see your posts I'm reminded of G-d and I am inspired to be a better Jew. I hope you have a wonderful day. :)

Well... thank you! :-) That's a very nice thing to say, Anon. A Jew should always try to 'imitate' G-d to the best of his ability. Now, I don't think I'm doing such a great job myself, but apparently I'm slowly -very slowly- improving on that as well.Have a great day!

I would like to remark on how kind and knowledgeable you are when it comes to all your curious followers! I happened to come across your blog, and I've spent at least an hour scrolling through your posts, which I enjoy reading. I don't think I could have much patience like you do when it comes to answering all those questions. It makes you very admirable. I find most people on the internet to be rude, or overbearing. Visiting your blog was a nice change! I hope you have a lovely day.

Thanks! I have to admit this made me actually smile (perhaps even grin) because the day I first saw this ‘ask’ was on Purim (which includes a Purim state of consciousness). A day when we traditionally joke around with each other. So at first I wasn’t quite sure if it was meant to be ‘real’ or not.  

Anyway, while I appreciate all the fanmail I’m getting lately I’m really not that admirable. ;-) It’s really not that hard not to be rude all the time on the Internet.

Have an amazing day yourself, as well!C’ya!

Pesach Music List!

As you most likely have noticed I am feeling better again, and have started catching up on my asks. Aside from that I've also changed my tumblr-playlist in honor of Rosh Chodesh Nissan (which is tomorrow evening) and Pesach that is coming up in two weeks from now.

I will iy"h change the list again when the sefira starts.  But for now...

Enjoy the music!
