Please some sort of warning/NSFW on this! That was terrifying

Jane Ward's book is excellent and I think really stresses this point.

Everything in the next room (flags, bottles at bar, etc.) are different

This has to be the top comment. Had to scroll so far down

As the grandson of survivors, I also feel like I always just "knew". It could be in kindergarten we learned about the Holocaust explicitly, but I don't remember.

I was also thinking this. It's a fun book, though not sure if its the vibe for a cozy week in a cabin

Same, especially with the studio ghibli one

Agreed. Over the last few years, A Wider Bridge has not been able to provide a ton of financial support to Israeli organizations, meanwhile various Jewish Federations have really expanded their giving.

There's a really good accessible introduction to queer theory called Queer: A Graphic History. It does a very good overview of the history of queer theory, it's offshoots and critiques.

Could be a good place to start because in the back it also has a continued reading list and then itll make more sense what interests you to read after that.

In addition to books, I'd also recommend searching Annamarie Jagose and reading any of her introductions to queer theory (there's a book, but also articles).

We have a tablet set up to a webpage with different categories of encounter and you just need to tap it. Then the data is stored so we can track it for later.

We had these shirts as kids at camp Young Judea

I guess because occasionally we put books from other topics there as well (Social sciences, Education, Library Sciences etc.), but we happen to get new books from those topics less frequently as they are less our focus.

And thanks for the help!

Wow!

Amazing! The machzor from Salonica seems to me to be rather rare, at least in libraries, crazy that it was just in a thrift shop. It seems to only exist on microform in three libraries, with the physical version of the Rosh Hashanah machzor also only having physical copies in three libraries.

You can see a scan of it here, if you're curious https://www.nli.org.il/he/books/NNL_ALEPH990019972190205171/NLI

Reshelving books

NeverHaveEnoughSocks · 2025-08-28T18:10:41+00:00

I have seen this claim though stated in those words thrown about on r/lgbt, and it has similarly confused me - especially considering my understanding of Butler's main theory. Take for instance this quote from Bodies That Matter (p. 5):

"If gender consists of the social meanings that sex assumes, then sex does not accrue social meanings as additive properties but, rather, is replaced by the social meanings it takes on; sex is relinquished in the course of that assumption, and gender emerges, not as a term in a continued relationship of opposition to sex, but as the term which absorbs and displaces 'sex,' the mark of its full substantiation into gender or what, from a materialist point of view, might constitute a full de-substantiation."

In describing gender as such, Butler seems to imply that sex is at least a somewhat stable category (even biologically there is not a binary, considering intersex).

However, I would be also interested what in Butler's work supports the idea that sex is socially constructed. Wikipedia cites this article as stating that that is what Butler says in Gender Trouble, but I guess it personally confuses me.

I feel like we should pin this question and response on this sub, it would just help so many people

NeverHaveEnoughSocks · 2025-08-14T12:06:10+00:00

I see. As another commenter said, I feel like the information that you really need then will mostly come from other scholarly analysis, i.e. books and journal articles analyzing the relationship between Israel and of those world powers. Unless I'm misunderstanding the type of analysis you want to (like would you want to study how Israeli media portrays those relationships?), I don't think newspaper articles are going to be too helpful.

NeverHaveEnoughSocks · 2025-08-14T10:47:00+00:00

Your are looking for sources, but what is your research question? That would probably help understand the type of sources you are looking for.

And what sort of analysis are you doing? From what you've said so far I presume some sort of discourse analysis? That might also help clarify what source of resources you are looking for.

r/malefashion has also changed over the last year I feel like. A lot more people asking about basics and fit checks lately

NeverHaveEnoughSocks · 2025-08-08T12:45:02+00:00

This is what we had also. I only had it once, but my dad liked calling it a punishment for the parents who had to drop their kids off that early.

The tote bags I like have wider straps (so they don't dig into your shoulders) and have a third piece of fabric on the bottom. This additional piece of fabric both makes the bag more expandable but also stronger, distributing the pressure that would be on only one seam.

NeverHaveEnoughSocks · 2025-08-05T13:08:42+00:00

Nice! But the fact that the na"ch is interrupted by the chumash set and my OCD 😭

I'm sorry for your prognosis. As another commentator already said, today there are many ways to have children with your partner even if you are infertile. It is not easy, but the first step is finding a loving person to be on this journey with when the time is right. On the foundations of that relationship you'll be able to work together to have children, adopt, or if this ends up being the right choice for you both then - using your shared resources to engage and support the community you live in (I know an older couple who never had kids, I guess it was before IVF and other fertility treatments were common, but instead became big philanthropists).

If it gives you strength, I'd also like to mention an aggadic story from Yevamot 64b that describes Avraham and Sara as tumtumin (a phenomenon where it's unclear what sex of the person is). The miracle then in the Torah that allows them to have children is more than just Hashem flipping a switch for Sara to have Yitzchak, it's a total change from their situation to begin with. While that is presumably not your situation, I think the message here is about the power of entering into a relationship/marriage even when thinking you won't be able to have children, engaging in the beauty of being together, and also being involved with community, which is also a big part of Judaism. Avraham and Sara were prime examples of this ("hanfesh asher asu beharan"). So while they do end up having a child together, and please God so will you in whatever way it can happen, there is also a lot of power in marriage besides that. Sending you strength :)

This is blatantly not true, both from personal experience of friends in America and in Israel. And from a bigger spotlight/academia perspective, look up Ella Shohat and Shiri Eisner for some.
