"What kind of God would He be if I could understand Him?"
- The Kotzker Rebbe
"The holiest time is today. The holiest person is you, and the holiest place is right here."
— Rabbi Menachem Mendel Morgenstern, the Kotzker Rebbe

Chevra Kadisha book feom Bonyhád, Hungary (1825)
The Yahuda Haggadah, unidentified scribe, Franconia, Southern Germany, 1470-80. Handwritten on parchment, Ashkenazic script.
This Haggadah is illustrated throughout with depictions of Passover rites and biblical episodes related to the Exodus as well as to the lives of Moses, the Patriarchs, and other figures. The numerous scenes, which are mostly based on midrashic sources, are accompanied by rhymed inscriptions, usually set within scrolls. The same artist, whose identity has not yet been discovered, decorated another similar Haggadah, and both are filled with outstanding illustrations.

Hey friends it's pride month, I found some more of my patches I made a few years ago.. They feel even more resonant for me than they did when I made them before. If you'd like one, or just wanna support another queer Jew's work this pride month, my work is all here. Thank you

Snuffbox for Shabbat and holidays, Morocco, 1925 CE
According to the museum: "Such snuff boxes were used at Sabbath and festival synagogue prayers. During long hours of prayer, snuff boxes were passed around to the participants as a stimulant to maintain alertness and concentration. This was a regular custom by the Jews of Morocco, but the making of such a box from gold is very unusual. These snuff boxes were almost exclusively used by Jews and were made by the almost exclusively Jewish jewelry makers of Morocco. The decorative pattern used on this box is similar to a gold amulet and two silver amulets thought to be from Ouezzan. The initials of the owner, AB, are inscribed on the cover."
Diary of a JewBu: a Jewish Buddhist's mood board (as requested)
"...at the table, Shabbat candles; in the living room, incense; at the doorway, a mezuzah; in the meditation room, a five-foot-high Buddha. If he glanced at the bookshelf, he would have seen dharma and kabbalah competing for space, and one was as likely to find Pali as Hebrew." -Kamenetz — the Jew in the Lotus (1994); ch. 1, pg. 10

im just so happy i live in a time period where actual meaningful biological transition is possible. even if we lose rights or the ability to exist in public, nothing can turn back the clock on that, and just by having any sort of access to that our lives are made immensely better. millions of our sisters throughout history would never have dreamed of a day where they could have what HRT does for us.
please don't lose the plot of this. if you're a trans person on HRT you're a living miracle, the dream of hundreds of millions of your ancestors. your lives are all deeply meaningful no matter what anyone says.

Cursed be the one who announced to my father: “It’s a boy!"... ...How could he twist the course of the stars so much? How could he have erred so in his astrology? A lying tongue, a fool’s mouth it had given him For he foolishly transformed justice to poison He altered the law and transposed the lines
Oh, but had the artisan who made me created me instead – a worthy woman... ...I would say "how lucky am I"
Father in heaven who did miracles for our ancestors with fire and water... ...Who would then transform me from a man to woman? Were I only to have merited this being so graced by goodness...
What shall I say? why cry or be bitter? If my father in heaven has decreed upon me and has maimed me with an immutable deformity then I do not wish to remove it. the sorrow of the impossible is a human pain that nothing will cure and for which no comfort can be found. So, I will bear and suffer until I die and wither in the ground. Since I have learned from our tradition that we bless both, the good and the bitter I will bless in a voice hushed and weak: blessed are you [HaShem] who has not made me a woman.
I think I'm gonna go lay down for a little while.
