Eeeee, I'm going to see the Odyessy in IMAX toniiiight!

Tbh I'd rather go with people but at this point in my life I cannot impulsively say "wanna go see a three hour movie half an hour away from here? Also, the movie is in two hours. Also, it's a Sunday night."

Most people are working tomorrow. Me, I can muster enough energy to get my kids out to half day camp and then go back to bed.

I'm so excited. I love Nolan as an auteur and I love the Odyessy, but Nobody ever gets my jokes about it. I love slightly smart movies for grownups.

woah bitch the fuck was that for

[pangur-and-grim]

I told my little nephew that I'd wave at his airplane when it flew over my house today, and he very calmly and politely explained that it wouldn't be possible to see me due to the limitations of human vision. I said he just had to squint real hard, and he took a deep breath and went into the toddler version of "see, what you're not understanding–"

So one of the Too Many Dogs is a golden retriever. Y'all: I used to think these guys were overrated, like it's a real cliche to like them, but oh my god. She's a large dog, like 60lbs, and she's so gentle. She's great at responding to instructions. She looks fucking photogenic ALL the time. My own dog is a scruffy shelter mix who looks like he belongs with charming urchins. Like I love him, I picked him because he was a fuzzy potato of a puppy, but you put him next to this magazine dog who also has an amazing personality and it's like what are we even doing? She's not even particularly high maintenance, her owners give her the cheap kibble but the nice treats, she gets brushed sometimes. Literally the perfect dog?

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:
