The Iranian Regime is going to execute rapper Toomaj Salehi for supporting protests of Jina Amini’s murder by the regime in his songs.
Iranian activist Elica Le Bon says, “Iranians in the diaspora picked up on the fact that the regime tends not to execute people who become known to the international community. We have seen many examples of prisoners that were either released on bail or had their sentences commuted through our “say their names to save their lives” campaign on social media, using hashtags to garner attention for their causes, and even before social media existed, through getting the stories of political prisoners to international media outlets. Once reported on, and once the eyes shift to the regime and the reality of its pending brutality, realizing that the action is not worth the repercussions, we have seen them back down and not execute. For that reason, this is part of an urgent campaign for readers to talk about Toomaj as much as you can, using the hashtag #FreeToomaj or #ToomajSalehi. Every comment makes a difference, and if we were wrong, what did we lose by trying?”

Chukim!
Hello Jumblr I need a little bit of help. What is the word for laws that exist but we don't know why they do(iirc it pertains to things like kashrut, shatnez, etc)? I remember there was a specific word for these type of laws and am working on a project where I'd like to use it, but cannot for the life of me find it or remember it.

At the local lake, this is around the time of year when they do the fish stocking. It's artificial, but it happens to the real lakes, too. Right now, the water is finally thawed out just enough that the park supervisor can roll up a big ol' truck full of fish and dump them into the water. They'll live happy, contented lives in the lake, unless they bite a hook, are abducted by clever seagulls, or someone finds the drain plug at the bottom again like they did back in August of '88 and lets all the water out.
Because the park is really cheap, the community association was looking for someone to pick up the truck, fill it with fish, and drive it to the lake. Since I had no real job at the moment, and needed something to check off the "community service" section of my parole documents, I decided to volunteer. Long-time readers may recall that I also have a small amount of affection for the operation of internal-combustion automobiles, which is a bonus.
Everything went great at the pickup. It turns out that my buddy Halvin was working in the town motor pool and made sure to give me the oldest, shittiest GMC Kodiak in the lot because it would make me more comfortable. What a guy. I was so overjoyed that I didn't even tell him it was me who backed over his mailbox last Christmas. Why ruin the moment?
After some hot twin-stick action to get across town, I was at the fish hatchery. You might not be familiar with one of these things, if you live a boring life. Me, I'm here at least once a year, mostly because their dumpster always has a lot of only-slightly-expired silicone sealants thrown away in it. It was here that I encountered my primary obstacle in completing Mission: Fish Flow.
As for what happened next, the exact details are still being worked out by my attorney. In my defence, however, I have been authorized to state that having over one thousand fish in the back of your 1970s cargo truck should qualify you for the car-pool lane, even if you do ram a state trooper, who – by the way – was riding in the car all by himself, the fucking hypocrite.

Adaine: Everyone thinks it’s so easy. “Oh, I'd never kill my father!” But sometimes, life happens. Kipperlily: Most people don’t kill their fathers. You’re projecting. Again. Adaine: I really don’t think I am.

I don't want enemies to lovers Dyehard. I want enemies AND lovers Dyehard. I need this to be the most toxic yuri ship the OIAR has ever seen. I need them to wake up every morning and insult each other over coffee. They have the most passive-aggressive conversations when they go on dates and they're holding hands the entire time. You see them walking down the street and at first it seems romantic but then you hear one of them threaten to push the other into traffic and the other one calls her a pussy. No one's allowed to be mean to you but me. You see my vision?

It's a bit of both. In many circumstances, it's just a good way to say non-jews. Technically it can be used in a derogatory way, but it's not a slur or anything. It's derogatory in the same way "gringo" is derogatory- it can have that connotation, but for the most part, the people who get offended over Jews using it are being ridiculous at best and racist at worst.
@ Jumblr English-speakers:
Could somebody please explain me connotations behind the word "goyim" IN ENGLISH? Because it's also incorporated in my language (neither English nor Yiddish nor Hebrew), but my mom forbade me from saying it in front of non-Jews, saying it's very rude. But I see on tumblr that you guys use it neutrally. Is it neutral? Or is it not caring anymore?
