I apologize for how little I've been on tumblr in the latter half of 2023. I know there's a lot of people on here who used to look up to me as a fan and some who still do. I'm sorry for being disappointing.
This year started out really good. I thought most of my absence would be because I'm doing really well in school, and I'm so so close to the final step to becoming a doctor in my field. In fact, my goal for 2024 is to start my dissertation, and that's a huge step and grand accomplishment that has taken hours of dedication, and I appreciate my readers' patience as I write during this time.
I passed (unofficially, just have to do some cleanup) my final doctoral qualifier. I finished up two fanfictions after trying so hard to get back into my pace after my accidents in 2021. I got engaged to the love of my life, and I reached spiritual and emotional peace over a 14-year-long trauma that I've been fighting. These were such good things that happened this year, and I'm ready to receive what goodness lies in 2024.
October sent me into a spiral I am just struggling to recover from. Not only is my family in a war zone, but that war zone is one of the most controversial ones in the world right now. And I have spent hours, days, weeks wailing over this genocide. I cannot help the people I love in either Palestine or Israel, who are caught in these crosshairs. And I drag myself to my university, where people scream and tell me that all Jewish people should leave or be accountable for these crimes. It was everything in me to make it to break. I rarely want to go home to my parents for extended time, but I practically fled my campus, and I broke down in tears in my mother's arms. I weep both for the injustice and for the guilt my own community forces on me, as if I am responsible for the sins of Israel.
I cannot promise a lot of activity from me in 2024. As long as Israel behaves this way, I will most likely remain distant from tumblr. Please don't take it personally. The flood of activism isn't wrong; I am just very weak from those voices which are loudly being antisemitic instead of critical of specifically Israel's government. Those voices are so loud I could some days barely get out of bed.
In 2024, I do ask people to be kind. Being kind will not fix everything. But it is one of the greatest things an individual can do during hard times. Kindness is treasured so much right now, especially as I am at such a low from the antisemitism around me. Give a compliment. Do a nice thing for someone. Sit in silence with someone who is too hurt to speak. And, most crucially, love those who struggle to love themselves.
Happy New Year, Shana Tovah
— AJ

You’re the best writer in the whole sao fandom! Congratulations! 💜
That's so sweet to say! I honestly feel like I have a lot of ways in which I can improve, and I feel so surrounded by talented people with wonderful ideas!
I've slowed down for holiday vacation, but I promise I'll be back to cranking out fic ASAP!

I want to wish any followers a Happy Chanukah even as my heart aches so much right now.
It's been a very rough school semester to be Jewish and to be Muslim on my campus right now. The spread of ignorance has been so bad that I've had to leave spaces because I actually felt like if someone looked at me and recognized I was Ashkenazi, they might seek to harm me. This is indeed a difficult time where all Jewish hearts are not united, because there is strife being sown in this world by Jewish hands.
Please remember that many Jewish people are weeping at the injustices alongside our Muslim brothers and sisters. In a time of suffering, let us lift one another up and speak out against injustice and cruelty.

I'm really sorry for my silence lately. It's really hard to open social media and scroll right now. While I know many people aren't intending to spread fear and hatred, most want to be participating in activism, the rise of anti-Semitic posts on every form of social media has been overwhelming. Even amidst posts of people being very reasonable and educational, anti-Semitism is seeping through the cracks on these same tags, throwing all Jewish people under the same umbrella.
It's very hard to come online and see not only posts about how my family could be killed any day now, but also those ignorant posts that seep through saying I also deserve death as an Ashkenazi person. These sentiments are not exclusive to my online world. People are screaming to kill Jewish people on my own university campus. I do not feel safe online nor offline right now, and I am not a supporter of the war crimes and genocides occurring.
My family fled Nazis in Europe not that long ago. We want no part of genocide. We do not believe in genocide. Yet we are being harassed constantly right now as a loud minority of ignorant people throw all Jewish people under the same umbrella.
So, I apologize for being quiet. I apologize that I'm forgetting to post my updates. I am drowning in an ignorance that throws someone else's opinions and morals on me. I am trying so hard to keep on living and keep on going to my classes and go out to get food and necessities. But every day it gets harder the more people scream and tell me innocent blood is on my hands.
Please let me speak for myself, if you have a complaint. I lost a very dear friend in Palestine. I may lose dear family right now. We are not a monolith. I weep for the injustice. I weep out of fear for my loved ones. Please do not call me a murderer. Please do not call me a racist. I am a Jewish person who can think and reason for myself.

Because i feel like i might be overestimating what the average is, i shall Conduct Research
This isn't about how many languages you speak, but how many youre able to count up to at least 10 in, since basic numbers are some of the first words you learn in a foreign language and sometimes you catch them without having studied the language at all
