I saw your Hanukkah bingo, amazing idea! Jewish fans deserve a lot more love! Is there anything non-Jewish people should especially keep in mind when creating for this bingo or any resources you recommend? Sorry if this question is inappropriate. I really wanna make sure I do proper research and create something appropriate but a lot of the things I find when I google mention that hanukkah is basically christmas (which you already said is wrong).

Thanks for creating this bingo and for running an awesome blog!

Good question!

The answer is: this is only *MY* personal answer, because there are as many opinions about Judaism as there are Jews. If you're Jewish and reading this and disagree, then shalom, let's be friends, of course we disagree. :P

But I think the biggest thing that I would say to keep in mind is the story of Hanukkah itself: it is not a story of peace on Earth, like Christmas is.

Hanukkah is the story of a tiny group of oppressed people fighting off their oppressors with strength, cunning, and might, and their perseverance being acknowledged with an objectively simple, small miracle (one night's worth of oil lasting eight nights). Hanukkah is NOT about peace on Earth, it's about fighting oppression, smashing fascists, and being anti-assimilationist.

That's why it isn't "Jewish Christmas" -- the idea of assimilating to Christmas themes/Christmas traditions goes against the root of the holiday itself. There is no "Hanukkah bush," we don't have "Hanukkah ornaments," we don't make "gingerbread Maccabees," etc. (An exception to those is that some interfaith families choose to merge Hanukkah and Christmas when the holidays overlap, which they do this year; that's their choice and it's valid!)

Hanukkah is about the perseverance of the Jewish people in the face of would-be colonizers and murderers. Hanukkah is, to me, about being in-your-face about being Jewish, especially as people try to secularize Christmas and make a big stink about being so angry about the phrase "happy holidays," yk?

And, it's about food fried in oil. :P Hanukkah is about latkes! It's about sufganiyot! I know families who do fried chicken for Hanukkah, too, although that's not what my family's ever done. But food is soooo important to Hanukkah, and that's probably the easiest way to work it into fic or art, tbh!

And if you're creating something and you're not sure about an element of the holiday or Jewish culture, you can always ping me to ask! I'm more than happy to read anything being created for this event, whether it's for one of my fandoms or not. :)

"absolutely atrocious."

"that thing is an eyesore."

😷 (which apparently is emoji-slang for "gross")

also, "gross." (like 5 times, no less) plus, "disgusting" and "appalling" and "ghastly".

"dial back the sexuality, will you?"

these are all comments i got in the last couple of days alone on one of my drawings, either on the thing or through my dms (mostly through dm’s).

what on earth was it? you ask. was it a picture of a dead animal being desecrated? was it a picture of children being mutilated? was it a picture of ebenezer byers just prior to his day of death, or hasashi ouchi right after his first skin graft (don't you dare google that, just so you sleep tonight)?

no, actually.

it was this:

this. this drawing right here. with its bright colors and nods to four different kinds of folklore (native american, irish, jewish, and mexican), overall vibe akin to japanese block art and even art from like west africa, centered around 7 people whom i absolutely love with all my heart (alex, chris, eric, xana, joey, krista, and mark lanegan), based in a city i love, seattle.

look, i don't care how people react to my art anymore: if i offended you, you probably needed it and if anything, i consider it job well done on my part.

but... did i miss something here? like what's gross about this?

about monarch butterflies from iroquois folklore, or the marigolds found in day of the dead celebrations, or hummingbirds in central american folklore, or the tree of life and six-petaled flowers in kabbalah?

about candles found in jewish lore (think: the maccabees for hanukkah) or candles found in honoring the dead (how many times have you seen someone light a candle for someone who's died?), or the celtic knots, a couple of which are coming undone in the vein of salvador dali's paintings, or stepping stones and warm, tropical colors found in african art?

about a meeting of life and death, of showing my love and basing it off something that alex did (took a detour down from canada into seattle to see ringo while on tour and i asked him if he visited chris while he was up there)?

what's gross about this?

and the "dial back the sexuality" thing is absolutely sending me, and the person who sent it wouldn't clarify what they meant by it, either. like... there's nothing sexual about this. it's just alex looking on at chris wistfully and eric, xana, mark, joey, and krista milling about like passersby. i guess there is a slight overtone to it maybe, but you really have to look at it to even think about it a little bit. unless you're armie hammer, there's nothing erotic about this. *alex voice* i don't wanna fuck a bronze statue.

#when i said get creative with the trolling i didn’t mean this #oh my god 😂😂😂#text

Chanukah party (USWNT x Baby!Reader)

This isn’t a request but @literaryhedgehog and I thought it would be fun. The basic premise is that reader is at camp during Chanukah, and the team feels bad (especially Lindsey) so they throw her a party. (thank you @notmia101 for betaing this for us).

You smiled at Alyssa as she described her winter plans after training camp. How she was going to visit her sister and her family for Christmas. How they were hoping for snow and how they were going to kill an innocent tree and desecrate its body with lights for their amusement. Her words, not yours. It was a game she and the other girls played every year, trying to make their Christmas plans sound as horror-movie-ish as possible. It was a way of trying to make fun of themselves so you could share the amusement and join in laughing at them.

But despite their efforts, a little piece of you always felt left out because you couldn’t (wouldn’t?) participate. See, you were one of the few who didn’t celebrate Christmas. You were proud of your Jewish heritage, even if your family wasn’t the most ~religious~. But you were proud of the culture you had been raised in. You held its traditions very near to your heart and weren’t AT ALL bitter that the rest of the team had time designated to visit their family during their winter holidays while you still had training camp through the third week of December.

You were kinda zoning out because you could only take so much of their cookie baking, their stalkerish man that watched kids while they slept, and their hiding of a stupid stuffed toy you were sure would give you nightmares (who the fuck thought having an ‘elf’ stalk your family all month was cute?!?!? Capitalism was a weird man). (Though you may or may not have paid attention to Lindsey’s plan to dress Ferguson like a little elf…)

“What about you kid?” Tobin asked, nudging you out of your daydream.

“What?” You shook your head, making everyone around you laugh.

“Do you have plans for the holidays?” Lindsey repeated, her smile showing off her dimples.

“Oh, um. Chanukah started a few days ago. It’s cool, they have an app with a menorah and everything. My family has been face timing me most days, but it will be over before training ends.” You shrugged, hoping they couldn’t see how much being away from your family during this time of year sucked (though you were glad to be included on the camp roster).

Most of the veteran's jaws dropped, how had they not known that you were missing something so important to you? How had US Soccer overlooked a holiday (and inadvertently given you an ultimatum- celebrate or make the national team).

“Then why did they schedule training camp this week?” Tobin mumbled. Again you shrugged.

“There’s 23 of you and only one of me… it’s really not that big of a deal,” you smiled briefly and gave the same speech you had given since middle school, “It’s not like the ‘Jewish Christmas’ even though it happens around the same time some years, my family doesn’t even exchange presents, so I’m really just missing the party they’re throwing on the 18th.”

“That still isn’t fair though. I mean, we get Christmas off automatically, even if we don’t celebrate it!” Christen huffed, throwing her hands up.

“I mean, this isn’t like a new thing. We’re always at camp during this time. And next year the holiday starts in November, so it’s not something that can consistently be scheduled around. I guess it’s just a sacrifice I have to make to be the best right?” You said earnestly, shaking your head. You knew all of the arguments, you had heard them for all of your life.

“But-“ Emily started to protest, but before she could get the words out you cut her off. “Don’t make a big deal guys, it’s fine. Really,”

The team stared at you for a few seconds, several women opening and closing their mouths several times. You shifted uncomfortably under their gaze, breathing a sigh of relief when your phone rang, glad to have an excuse to get out of this situation.

“Ok so we’re totally going to make a big deal out of this,” Lindsey said turning back around to face the team the second you were out the door.

“I’m guessing you have a plan to woo your girl?” Emily smirked, wiggling her eyebrows.

“It’s not to. No. We are doing this as a team to be supportive of our teammate who is part of a traditionally marginalized culture that we need to be more supportive of,” Lindsey grumbled sternly, smiling when Christen nodded in return. “I’m googling “Chanukah for Dummies” right now.

They were going to make this camp different from the others (and if she got to impress you that was just a bonus).

…..

“Umm, why does it smell like something is burning?” Becky asked, walking through the hotel corridor towards the dining room.

“Because Latkes are apparently more difficult to make than I expected,” Kelley said, tossing what looked like a stack of burned hockey pucks into the trash. “I didn’t realize the whole room was going to smell like fried food- do you think they’re going to fine me when we check out?”

“If they fine you, they better fine Em too. The stench from such a little jar is kind of amazing,” Lindsey huffed.

“What did she do, get her sardines or something?” Becky asked, shaking her head, remembering the smell that she couldn’t quite place.

“No. Something called ‘Gefilte fish’”.

“But isn’t that usually for Passover?” Kelley asked, looking up from where she was trying to scrape burned potatoes off her pan.

“They said it was traditional, isn’t that what we’re going for?” Emily huffed, pouting. Lindsey rolled her eyes at her best friend.

“I’ve got music!” Chrystal called, walking through the door in a star-patterned sweater. “It turns out there are not a whole lot of Chanukah songs. There’s a Spotify playlist that’s only 3 hours long, or so, so I supplemented it with a lot of Leonard Cohen and Paul Simon.”

“And I brought the sour cream and applesauce as requested!” Sam called, walking in after her, “also some apple juice and honey bourbon. I know apples and honey are a thing for Rosh Hashana, so I thought maybe we could make some cocktails?”

“I won’t tell coach if you don’t,” Kelley said taking the bottle and pouring herself a shot. “Someone else needs to take over the latke making. My attempts have all either looked like lefse, hashbrowns or just burned.”

“Lefse?”

“I had an ex-girlfriend from Minnesota. It was a potato tortilla thing her family sent her at thanksgiving. The point here is that someone else needs to cook or we are just going to be eating sour cream and applesauce on their own.”

“We could make french fries?” Rose suggested tentatively.

“With bacon and cheese! Those are the best,” Emily exclaimed, only to have Lindsey (gently) slap the back of her head.

“No, Sonnett. She can’t have bacon and I don’t think she’s allowed to have cheese and meat on the same plate…”

“I think if we just batter potato pieces in egg and flour and fry them it would taste nice with the apple sauce and sour cream. And we’ve made french fries before so it won’t be so much of a… learning curve. Though you did a great try, Kelley!” Rose said, patting Kelley’s arm.

“You guys are useless. Did you even look at a recipe?” Megan shook her head.

“If you think it’s so easy you try it.” Kelley scoffed. Megan raised her eyebrow at the woman, stealing the spatula from the defender's hand.

“Tasty made here we come,”

*****

“Happy Chanukah!” came from all around as you walked in. Lindsey was very proud. Not only had she gotten the team on track and ensured that they had all of the stuff google said would make the perfect Chanukah celebration; she had also kept you off their trail until this moment. The shock on your face made all the work on their day off entirely worth it.

The room was decorated in tinsel with a shiny plastic menorah in the center of the table. Several people were wearing ugly sweaters with different “decorations” taped on. A sign on the back wall said “We survived, let’s eat!” Lindsey had decided against hanging up the posters Rose and Mal made saying “Stick it to the (ro)Man!” and “MaccaBEe mine.” The first one because she wasn’t sure it was appropriate, the second one because she knew it wasn’t.

“Ooo who brought the hotdog of the sea?” You asked, biting your lip to suppress a giggle as you walked over to the table to see the food on display.

“What?” Lindsey’s eyes tried to follow yours, utterly confused. They didn’t get hotdogs. They most certainly weren’t on the list that Chanukah for dummies had given her.

You smiled softly and shook your head, pointing to the tan balls that Emily had provided.

“That’s what my siblings and I call it during Passover. Gefilte fish is kinda a love it or hate it thing…” you trailed off, scrunching your nose just slightly.

“And you’re not a fan?” Lindsey smirked, wrapping an arm around your shoulder.

“Umm, I plead the fifth,” You mumbled, shaking your head slightly. It wasn’t your favorite item in the world.

“That was all Emily,” Kelley snorted, clapping you on the back, and you grinned devilishly back at her.

“Well, it was very nice of her to be so thoughtful. She can try a piece with me,”

Emily cringed at the idea, but nodded nonetheless. It was your party and if eating the smelly thing out of a jar made you happy, then that’s exactly what she would do. (She also stealthily shot Lindsey the middle finger while you were surveying the rest of the items on the tables).

“Honestly the sufganiyot is my favorite,” you said, taking a step towards the platter, your lips ticking up at Lindsey’s adorable confused face. “sorry, the donuts,” you clarified, picking up one of the many powdered sugar-covered donuts in the stack, inspecting it to see what kind it was. The Jelly ones were particularly important for the celebration.

Lindsey blushed a little. “We didn’t know if you wanted jelly or custard,” She said hesitantly, watching as your eyes got impossibly brighter.

“Both are amazing, thank you,” You smiled softly at the midfielder, brushing a stay bit of powdered sugar off her pink cheeks. You held her gaze for a moment before seeming realizing you had an audience, and turning towards the rest of the team. “thank all of you,”

It wasn’t the traditional Chanukah you usually shared with your family, but the friends who had become your family made it special nonetheless.

*sigh* two more mentioned “scholars of ancient Near Eastern history”, with no links or book titles to get more information. Google tells me that they write in Arabic (not surprised because so does El-Rubaiee, but slightly disappointed that it means I can’t get a bio or anything) and that the only English site that mentions them is a veeeery anti-semitic bookstore. So…there’s that…which also does not surprise me.

The third he mentions does write in English, but his work on the topic has apparently been rejected by most scholars outside of Arabia, with one colleague supposedly going so far as to claim the book in questions was an intellectual exercise rather than a demonstration of actual opinions. I’d like to get me hands on a copy of the review I keep seeing references for but it’s in the Journal of the Royal Asiatic Society, so that’s unlikely to happen. But apparently (according to Ezzat) he claims that Israel didn’t exist in the area of modern Israel until the Maccabees made it so, which is definitely not one I’d heard before.

Book List

Not all of these are books I will read, because of that I also do not vouch for them. I am just collecting links here and names so I can find them later. If i find I dislike one of these I will later delete them or mark them:

Brettler’s How to Read the Jewish Bible: Warmly recommended by multiple people, a jewish interpretation of the torah (with the assumption that it is written by humans and divinely inspired)

https://shabb.es/a-rainbow-thread.html : A Rainbow Thread: An Anthology of Queer Jewish Texts from the First Century to 1969, edited by Noam Sienna with Foreword by Judith Plaskow

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/People_of_the_Book_(novel) : People of the Book is a 2008 historical novel by Geraldine Brooks. The story focuses on imagined events surrounding protagonist and real historical past of the still extant Sarajevo Haggadah, one of the oldest surviving Jewish illuminated texts.

https://www.sefaria.org/The_Book_of_Maccabees_I?lang=bi : 1 Maccabees is a book written in Hebrew by a Jewish author after the restoration of an independent Jewish kingdom, about the latter part of the 2nd century BC. (http://jewish-kulindadromeus.tumblr.com/post/179967834441/2-kislev-5779 by @jewish-kulindadromeus is what brought my attention to this resource, when I get to studying this book I will be reblogging a lot from this creator!)

https://books.google.de/books/about/Wrestling_with_God_and_Men.html?id=xOmU5q1x8HsC&printsec=frontcover&source=kp_read_button&redir_esc=y#v=onepage&q&f=false : Wrestling with God and Men on google books. A good chunk of the book is available to read here.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yehezkel_Kaufmann : An author a class encouraged to study without mentioning what exactly of his work to study. Helpful

And the big treasure trove:

https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XgS2qP_0td4Ig8Zd9d-6CKv5MouCKDF2Dh1kh1BVusw/edit : Great big list of books!!
