If your Jewish friends invite you to join them for some Chanukah festivities, there's a few basic things you should keep in mind. When I say "basic," I mean really basic. If it's listed here, it unfortunately means I've seen/heard someone do or say it.
Don't make Holocaust jokes.
Don't make thinly veiled antisemitic comments. Antisemitic "jokes" aren't funny.
Dreidel is pretty much a game of chance. Losing isn't the end of the world. Everyone loses dreidel at least once a year (usually more than that).
Staying with friends doesn't mean your friends are supposed to fund your vacation (this honestly goes for staying with anyone, not just your Jewish friends). They're saving you the cost of a hotel already.
If you don't want to participate in a holiday tradition, don't make a big thing out of it. Respectfully decline and move on instead of calling Jewish traditions "weird" or something along those lines.
Have fun! Chanukah is a beautiful holiday with some really cool and beautiful traditions. Enjoy your time with your friends.

uquiz time because i'm sad and the one i found is really pretty
the midnight lover
the midnight lover [noun, german origin] refers to a character that believes their final destination is a second place. they are always there when people need them, but they are never their first choice, merely the one to talk to at midnight when one is the most honest, just to be thrown away the morning after (hence why they're called a midnight lover). midnight lovers love too much, fall too deep and land to hard for anyone and everyone they appreciate, but they never seem to get their love back in the way they'd want, forever united by the dreadful second place in people's lives. many take advantage of midnight lovers, using their heart that's always there to listen as something they can dump all their problems on, not acknowledging that their heart is just as fragile as any other. still, midnight lovers listen and comfort and give their all no matter it draining them - sometimes it's truly astonishing how much love they're able to store within themselves. all midnight lovers long for is to be perceived as something more than 'the second resort', though many struggle to realize their already achieved significance in eyes of others. who knows, many (or majority) may haven't ever been a second choice, they were just lead to believe so via people not treating them accordingly. as a certain saying goes, "one not worthy of your love should not be able to spend it." - a fellow midnight lover
fully expect this to flop but oh well

im feeling sappy tonight. shoutout to the baby tboys begging to be forcemasced. one day you will become the man you want to be. within the kink its wonderful when another man grabs you by the shoulders and pushes you headfirst in. its wonderful to share in the joy he felt when he started. in reality know youre afraid. it takes guts to let yourself be who you want. dont take your feelings lightly and let yourself explore. you are not alone but its also up to you. take care. much love.

Just messing around with some ideas. I feel a bit self conscious about sharing something this rough but I haven’t posted much of anything for a while, sorry. This was intended to be more of a sketch blog anyway so it shouldn’t matter.

You know body swap aus?
Desert duo body swap au but they're both trans guys but grian is the most dysphoric guy you'll ever meet and he got top surgery vs Scar who couldn't care less and has barely any dusphoria and doesn't even own a binder.
Theyre both suffering but in two very different ways.
"Scar do you seriously not have anything else besides a sports bra"
"Grian you stole my tits"

Full disclosure I'm a couple episodes behind in WWW, so I'm not 100% on every thing that's being discoursed about, but I've seen enough that I just want to remind people/beg people to remember:
You are watching The Nuance Show, DMed by Mr. Philosophical Nuance and played by Notable Lovers of Nuance.
