Children are what make Christmas, or whatever Solstice Holiday one celebrates, special. Happy Christmas, Hanukkah, Hopi Soyal, Zuni Shalako, Saturnalia, Yalda, Kwanzaa, and Yule! , , , ,

Sometimes, "May you experience comfort and peace during this special time" works so much better. Many elderly or ill people die around the time of winter holiday, adding grief, bitterness, and anger to the emotional mix that their survivors feel.

"From shuttered #eateries to vanished #bagel glory to a “#SNL#Hanukkah skit that never made it to the air, #2025 was a year of gains, losses and unexpected twists for #NewYork’s #Jewish community."

"It’s been a whirlwind of a year for #NewYorkCity, with major changes hurtling toward the #BigApple and altering Life As We Know It — from congestion pricing to a new mayor whose activism around #Israel has alarmed many #Jews and thrilled others.

For the city’s Jews, the changes have ranged from the lofty to the ludicrous. From a tacky #menorah sketch that never aired on “#SaturdayNightLive” to multiple #kosher institutions that failed to thrive in New York’s competitive #restaurant industry, here are 12 things that New York City lost — and in other ways, won — in 2025."

“Hey [name]! Just wanted to wish you a [Merry #Christmas|Happy #Hanukkah|Happy #Kwanza|happy #holidays|whatever]. I hope you’re doing well. Love you!”

"Fans of the long-running game show #FamilyFeud #Canada may have caught the Bernstein family appearing as contestants last week. The five family members—who all live around #RichmondHill and #Oshawa—taped their episodes back in August at #CBC headquarters in #Toronto, but had to keep their appearances a secret until the episodes aired.

In an interview with The CJN’s #NorthStarpodcast, two of the family members reveal how proud they were to represent #Judaism on the small screen—bantering in #Yiddish with comic host #GerryDee—even though their episodes ended up airing during difficult times. The family watched themselves on #TV last week, shortly after losing patriarch Nat Bernstein, 101, in #Montreal. And while the timing around #Hanukkah was convenient for celebration (especially given how much gelt they won), the #terrorattack at #BondiBeach in #Australia cast a pall over their excitement."

«En el Judaísmo se le reconoce bajo el nombre de יְהוֹשֻׁעַ, Yehošuaʕ, o יֵשׁוּעַ, Yešuaʕ; en el Islam se le venera como عيسى ʿĪsā o Isa; y en el Cristianismo es conocido como Jesús. Sea cual sea nuestra fe o creencia, el mensaje que nos dejó trasciende cualquier religión y puede resumirse de forma sencilla: TE AMO Y NADA MÁS IMPORTA».

"Benzion Shemtov, #rabbi at #Chabad #Jewish Center at #Michigan State #University was out of the state when someone spray-painted #Nazi symbols on the doors and threw rocks at the windows of the center in the days following the #massacre at #BondiBeach in #Australia, where 15 people were #killed during a #Hanukkah celebration.

But when Shemtov returned to #EastLansing, he said he was greeted by numerous letters from the #MichiganState University community that the center serves.

“I got home and I got letters in the mail from people that are not even Jewish, just writing letters of support. It’s break right now. There’s no one in town…. just to see from #students that graduated and maybe came to us, students [that weren’t] necessarily so close with [us] perhaps because maybe they didn’t attend that much, but they were writing, this is their home, this was their home on campus,” Shemtov said. “This will always be their home.”

Don’t ask why she does this. It’s her tradition!

A grey and white kitty with an intense look about her chomping the central candle holder of a brass chanukiyah, the one for the Shamash that is above a Magen David. Her whiskers are wild, her teeth pointy. The photo matches my pinned photo from a couple years ago where she is doing the same thing.
