blood is not kosher

assuming vampires breathe, and are therefore alive, what do they do

[animatedamerican]

If they’re alive and they need it to survive, it’s permitted (provided they don’t kill people in so doing).

If they’re not alive, halacha doesn’t apply to them.

Either way, there is no reasonable halachic restriction on a vampire drinking blood.

[captainlordauditor]

but would it need to be from a kosher animal can they drink, like, dolphin blood

[animatedamerican]

Okay now that gets interesting and I would want to actually ask a rabbi whether that would be a thing.  like, if one must consume the blood of living things to survive, does it make a difference whether one limits it to the blood of kosher animals or not.  I could see it being ruled either way.  (I would think if there is only one type of blood one can metabolize or if only one type of blood is available, one can consume it regardless.)

[acleverforgery]

I remember learning that human blood (not sure about animal blood) is permissible to consume if it has not been “poresh” (”separated”) from the body (in the context of “if you cut your lip or your finger and immediately and instinctively put it in your mouth, you don’t have to spit out the blood”).

So 

Drinking blood out of a goblet or vacuum-sealed bag would be assur, but sinking your teeth into someone and drinking directly (so that the blood never touches the air or is in a vessel) would be okay.

[animatedamerican]

I know that applies to one’s own blood, but I don’t know if the principle applies to someone else’s.  But it may count as a possible precedent!

[alternativetodiscourse]

Okay, so I asked my rabbi about this (… yes, my actual rabbi). Short answer, @fenrisesque​, is that the ideal situation is for the vampire to intravenously ingest blood that was donated by a human in order to stay alive, assuming that donation doesn’t kill the person. If homemade intravenously doesn’t work, then storebought oral ingestion is fine too. This applies whether or not the vampire can drink animal blood. Long answer, which I find fascinating but is long so under a cut:

Hey. Why isn’t the moon landing a national holiday in the US. Isn’t that fucked up? Does anyone else think that’s absurd?

[alagaisia]

It was a huge milestone of scientific and technological advancement. (Plus, at the time, politically significant). Humanity went to space! We set foot on a celestial body that was not earth for the first time in human history! That’s a big deal! I’ve never thought about it before but now that I have, it’s ridiculous to me that that’s not part of our everyday lives and the public consciousness anymore. Why don’t we have a public holiday and a family barbecue about it. Why have I never seen the original broadcast of the moon landing? It should be all over the news every year!

[alagaisia]

It’s July 20th. That’s the day of the moon landing. Next year is going to be the 54th anniversary. I’m ordering astronaut shaped cookie cutters on Etsy and I’m going to have a goddamn potluck. You’re all invited.

[watermelon-converse]

Hey. Hey. Tumblr. Ides of March ppl. We can do this

[emi--rose]

Hell yeah moon holiday

[hello-delicious-tea]

Ooh coming up we should celebrate

[ariaste]

PITCH: We call it Moon Day, and then every 7 years when it falls on a Monday, that's an even BIGGER deal and we call that Moon Day Monday and go absolutely apeshit about it (the next Moon Day Monday is in 2026 so we have a couple trial runs first)

[sarostheghostcat]

MOON DAY MOON DAY MOON DAY

[wafflebloggies]

Scheduling this a day earlier to remind you all and myself about the Moon Day tomorow!

[kedreeva]

I scheduled this in 2025 to give you all a week to make Moon Day Monday preparations! I think I will order a little rocket cake or bake some moon phase cookies!

[dduane]

It's coming, cousins. ...This could be as big as March 15th if we made it that way...

[agam-shel-barvadim]

Tokenization isn’t representation. It’s exploitation.

When someone says, “I know a Jew,” or “My Jewish friend agrees,” they’re often treating one person as a stand-in for an entire people.

A token is valued not for their individuality, but for the cover they provide:

“See? A Jew agrees with me, so I can’t be prejudiced.”

No Jew was elected to speak for 15 million others.

Listen to Jewish voices. Don’t weaponize one against the rest.

“punch a nazi”

okay so punch hamas, the arab league,and the plo?

hamas, who has “our struggle against the JEWS is very great” in their charter, aka a phrase hitler used?

the arab league, who sided with nazis in wwii and used them as generals for their armies in 1948?

and the plo, who worked and trained with neo nazis?

[stupidjewishwhiteboy]

Antizionist critics of Israel often do a fun little thing where they get into high dudgeon where they claim they don’t hate JEWS, they just hate Israel…in a way that indicates that they feel like Israelis are genetically or culturally evil in some way. And then they act confused as to why diaspora Jews, who share genetics and culture with Israelis, are getting mad at them!

[turbomitzvah]

if they don't hate Jews and they just hate Israel why protest in front of a synagogue and not in front of the Israeli embassy

if you just hate Jews you just hate Zionists why do you only protest Jewish schools and Jewish places of worship and Jewish hospitals and places of business when there are more Christian Zionist churches, hospitals, schools and businesses in the Southern United States than there are Jews on the planet
