Hi! I'm Sundance. My main is @meatmensch.

With antisemetic hate crimes on the rise, I have been super bummed out. The tags #judaism and #jewish have been trending on Tumblr because of the recent swatting of synagogues. I saw @harasharaved mention that, whenever these tags trend, it is usually because something horrible has happened.

So! I thought I'd make this blog to shine a spotlight on Jewish joy on Tumblr. Please spread this! Poetry, art, tournaments, memes, fanworks, stories, music, book recs, recipes, resources - they all belong here. This is just a place to share cool stuff and bring people together. I'm going to try to make this blog as devoid of Jewish pain and suffering as possible. Sadly, I think that is going to be difficult. But that's the whole point. And I will tag appropriately.

Feel free to tag me in posts, message me posts, send me asks, and submit stuff. I hope I can make this a fun little project that spreads some joy!

Shabbat shalom!

I checked this blog's activity for the first time in a while, and was surprised to find a great deal of notes. I appreciate you all. Here's to Jewish joy. Have a lovely Chanukah! 🧡

conversion student hello i went to a shabbat event and it was the best thing ever. i loved everything about it i loved the food i loved the music i loved the prayers i loved the people. i’m autistic and i was in a room full of strangers singing songs i didn’t know and i didn’t feel awkward in the slightest that’s how lovely it was. i spoke to people well and without fear even though i didn’t know them because i was just not anxious at all. i got to wear a kippah and it matched my outfit. genuinely it was one of the nicest evenings i can remember. i can’t wait for this to be my life all the time :33333

HI! YAYYYY!!! That sounds so awesome. I'm glad you had a good time! Here's to many more wonderful sabbaths together 🥂 Welcome 🧡

Hello! I'm Sundance. I run this blog, the purpose of which is to gather awesome posts about Judaism. If you know of any similar blogs - whether they be Judaism-centric, or for other cultures - please send them my way! I'd love to make a directory.

The queue will soon run dry, aside from some scheduled posts for specific holidays. I will not continue to post every day, as I am trying to spend less time on Tumblr. I will still post now and again. I won't delete this blog, as I am proud of it and want to keep it around for others and myself to reference.

Oh Jesus. No I didn't! Thanks so much for letting me know I did that. Lmao!
