Homegrowndevil - Rejoyce! Our Times Are Intolerable

I was just attending one of my synagogues study nights, and Rabbi M (who ended up staying with us this year due to covid) was telling us about how he does a lot of the cooking and cleaning around his house, what he calls the "more stereotypically female jobs", while Mrs. M does her computer work. And then he told us about how some times, when they're doing shabbes blessings, Mrs. M will do the blessing for a wife, to Rabbi M. I'd like to say that my first thought was "ah, that's sweet/cute". but the singular thought i had was "MALE WIFE"

good news: i got a job at a garden center, i love it.

weird news: the boss lady, Kim, asked if i was okay with spiders and instead of saying "yeah, as long as they aren't like, in my mouth," what i actually said was "yeah, as long as they are in my mouth," and it was simaltaneously the worst and most hilarious moment in my entire life.

also, the place is run by a middle aged lady, three teenagers, and an elderly couple. it has a metric fuckton of cats running around, i get to take home any tomatoes or plant clippings i want, and my legs really hurt from all the squatting i've been doing to pick things out of plants.

fuck i accidentally deleted the post about the people at my synagogue and i'm mad cause i don't get to go this week, so here you all get to see it again:

my rabbi who will take every chance to tell you how shephardic jews Are Right and curses

the lady with the leopard print bag who dances the whole time

the lady who crochets yarmulkes

the little girl who runs around with her yarmulke on her face and her infinite dolls

my rabbi's wife who introduced doing a conga line during Yom Kippur because "you're all being too depressing, we're getting our souls cleaned today, lighten up."

all the weird old men, except when they eat all the good stuff off the lunch buffet

the very stressed and very tired starbucks manager

the All Powerful Linda

Hannah and her sister who are planning the garden we're going to put by the playground

the other rabbi with the sparkly tallis

this isn't a person, but in case we ever run out of extra yarmulkes, there's a doilie and if you get stuck with the doilie we all get to laugh at you, not to be mean, just, it's funny

today on things my boss says: "I don't want to pull over and pop a squat because i'm afraid a toad will suck on my ass cheek with its little mouth."

i hope you all appreciate this weird old man i saw near my house today, he's what i aspire to be
