Hi! I’m Meli, formerly at mismatched@a.weirder.earth. Sadly a.w.e has been hacked and I miss mastodon too much to go without, so I decided to sign up here! Worst comes to worst, it becomes a backup/2ndary account.

I am a (approximately) weirdo. I like and other fiber arts, I post selfies and cat pics, and i believe internet friendships make the world go round.

Before I signed up, the front page said we had nine members. Do we have a minyan now?

It's a weird time of year for Chanukah stories but I'm just thinking the Jews in the desert who refused to raise a sword on Shabbat and perished for it. The Maccabees won by being willing to break rules and fuck the system in their revolution

just like... you know... I think about when I think about insisting on working within the system completely non-violently as our way to fight back against like... fascism.

Hierarchy is Detrimental for Human Cooperation

"Compared to a condition lacking hierarchy, cooperation declined in the presence of a hierarchy due to a decrease in investment by lower ranked individuals. Furthermore, hierarchy was detrimental to cooperation regardless of whether it was earned or arbitrary."

i feel like i should give the reconstructionist congregation another chance since i like what i've heard about other reconstructionist congregations in other parts of the country but last time i was there i got weird looks for wearing a scarf that happened to have a black and white houndstooth pattern on it and i overheard ppl whispering that they thought it was a keffiyeh and it left a bad taste in my mouth

my favorite foods to make for goyim are the ones which involve black pepper mixed with cinnamon or syrup or something

anyway a positive post: the other night I made matzo brei for my goyische partner and she was very bewildered the whole time trying to figure out what i was doing every step of the way

"OK you're boiling the matzo... no.. you're pouring it on the matzo... now you're squeeze the water back out?... and an egg... OK so it's like french toast?... wait... black pepper? so it's a savory dish... wait why are you adding maple syrup"
