Lecrae (lecrae), 2020-11-06:

How are you doing at loving your enemies today?

Matt 5:44

tikkun olam means antifascist action (afrodesiaq), quote-tweeting and replying to Lecrae:

jewish people have a whole holiday dedicated to mercilessly mocking a person who crossed us thousands of years ago and i'm keeping that energy for always

gonna start carrying a grogger and spin it any time someone tries to bring up 45s name

bake pumpkin cookies in november to get the color of Bad Spray Tan

[Not my faith tradition, but this appeals to me. If I'd be out of line joining in (i.e. cultural appropriation), I'll just smile from the sidelines and wait for someone too offer me pumpkin hamentashen.]

As a shitty Jew, I'm all for pumpkin hamentashen and everyone getting on the tikkun olam game.

OMG a GROGGER to drown out Cheeto Benito's name. I am giggling in delight. I guess the appropriate hamentaschen would be orange...

Last Purim*, there was a little skit about the group in Shushan organizing against Haman.
Person 1: "Tell me more! What's the name of the group?"
Person 2: "Anti-Haman" (cue groggers)
Person 1: "What did you say?"
Person 2: "Anti-Ha- (groggers)
Person 1: I don't understand. Anti-what?
Person 2 whispers in their ear.
Person 1: Oh no! That's terrible! Everybody has to join Anti-Ha! [Exuent, pursued by groggers.]

*Not the most recent Purim, when we were sufficiently worried about COVID to not hug each other. The one before that.
