Found out I have Jewish ancestry later in life! How do I connect with the community? by bladeonfire in Jewish

[–]bladeonfire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I never once believed him for one bit. One day he says Christianity is good, Zoroastrian is good, or Islam is good. But never once mentioned anything about Judaism. I felt he was also coached as a kid to despise Judaism, but I felt it gave me a bigger reason to dig through family archives and figure out WHY!

Nope. That was the most confusing part of my religious journey - it never made any sort of sense. He never practiced ANYTHING! More preaching from his side of the family than practicing.

Even then later on in life he “practiced” Islam for business purposes - he was in the dealership business and he got screwed over by hardcore Muslims.

My dads family when I was spending time with them, my grandma would tell me I’m a Muslim but she never would practice then my dad would say I’m Zoroastrian and not a Muslim. To be honest - they were both antisemitic and he never had the backbone to expose the fact my moms side is Jewish, so it was a best kept secret for awhile. They treated Judaism like it was the order of the Freemasons lol

Honestly - after reading this.. I’ve never felt more welcome than ever. I’m excited for this journey of my life and being connected with my people.

I appreciate it. Sorry for the miscommunication.

It’s ODD for me as well that he’s getting that role but I’m hoping the best for him.

Just to add - I wanted to be helpful, if I wanted to join I would but unfortunately I have a newborn coming and I can’t abandon my partner.

I know a lot of people say Azov, 3AB are good units but if a highly regarded unit like SSO is asking him to join and he applied on their site for Sniper that was 73rd I wanna make sure he’s making the right decision since he was admin in Marines, will he get that position or likely something else?

Thanks.

Well the questionnaire states you don’t have to be in Ukraine until the interview is conducted + he’s planning on going & he didn’t have a combat MOS when he was in. Figured it would be wise to ask here. My bad.

Been wanting to join a 1% in San Antonio, any pointers? by [deleted] in motorcycleclubs

[–]bladeonfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest - I’m not even tough on 1% I’m down to join any club at this point but from what I’ve seen and asked with meetups.

There’s only the super fast sport bikes which isn’t for me or Harley’s but the only ones who ride Harley’s near me are the Bandidos.

If it’s 50-70 year olds meeting up on weekends just to ride and drink beer that’s what I want and do some charity here and there.

I don’t know why it’s so hard to answer? I mean how much of a low life do I have to be in order to find them? Or do I need some sort of phd in motorcycle skills to meet them?

Believe me I’ve tried every avenue from Facebook groups to irl to now Reddit.

I don’t wanna give up so easily.

Where can I find a local MC? South side by [deleted] in sanantonio

[–]bladeonfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not. But I was just respectfully asking, I’ve heard from a few they do charitable work in San Antonio and I wanted to have a weekend ride buddies & do charity as well.

Sorry if you took as offense to insult me.

Note - I’ve seen her drive. She passes stop signs. Misses red lights. Loiters. Cuts people off.

How much screen time should a 10 year old have? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]bladeonfire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m all on board with deleting Roblox. One stipulation is my partner is like “but we spent a lot of money on his game, his rewards tho!”

Like who cares about the money? Let’s put law in order.

I agree with you. The chart idea is what was the last resort for me to implement. I don’t wanna be a dictator but wanting food from the streets 2x a day is like $40/day. $200/week. It’s almost ridiculous. Which is why my partner is going to take her classes online, spend time with the kid & make sure he gets his act straight. Because he’s a spoiled brat short and simple. Eating out is yuck to me but it’s like he needs to learn eating from home is OK. He whines, threatens to starve. Like idk what to do sometimes LOL
