If you're in the process of converting to Judaism here is my advice:

Worry less about arguments online and worry more about (in no particular order):

Following a shabbat service and learning tunes your synagogue uses frequently

What kind of volunteering you want to do in your local Jewish community

Setting up time with your rabbi(s) to talk and ask questions

Writing for yourself in a journal about the process

Tefillah

Did I propose to @tzipporahssong in a synagogue? Why yes. Yes I did.

For our first date and for our most important date 💜💛

#does a single one of these states have a jewish community in them#genuine question I can't vote for any of them unless I know the answer to that#I'm not living in a place with literally zero kosher places to eat out at#polls

gail, chicago is illinois

we lived there and were very jewish there

[evilwickedme]

I love you(!) but just bc you lived there doesn't mean there's a substantial community. My great great grandparents lived in Minnesota I believe? Somewhere north ish. And my great grandfather specifically took the family there because there was no Jewish community within miles

Still, good to know

[jewish-kulindadromeus]

fair enough

chicago in illinois has a huge jewish community

minnesota in the twin cities has a decent sized jewish community

ohio has multiple jewish communities and used to have one of the campuses of the reform jewish rabbinical school

milwaukee in wisconsin has a decent sized jewish community

that's just from the top of my head and my lived experiences!

I was in a rush to catch the train so it's not the best photo, but happy pride nonetheless ✌️

I really love it when people include their pets in religious activities. Of course your bird also gets a christmas present, of course you'll get your cat her own prayer mat so she can mirror you without interrupting, sure you can do a welcoming-a-new-family-member-home ritual for your new puppy. The animal has no idea what's going on in a spiritual level, just that this is a Human Activity and they're getting included because they are very loved.
