Daniel Radcliffe is allergic to nickels??

Anyone can be allergic to nickels if you throw them hard enough.

Mara is fantastic. I especially like her voicing „The Old Woman Who secretly lives in your house“ in „Welcome to Nightvale.“

Mara seems like a really cool person. I just listened to the behind the bastards episode with her and she felt exceptionally genuine.

Same here, I actually got this post from the Behind the Bastards sub. She was a great guest.

This made me look up the term secular in context to Judaism. How did I not know that until now?

For those that don't know, being Jewish is the only ethnicity in the world that also refers to religion and (though no longer used due to antisemitic usage) national identities. Secular Jews are quite common

Yeah my dad is a Jewish atheist (or agnostic, depending on how much he feels like placating my catholic mom lol)

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 week ago (10 children)

I am also a Jewish atheist married to a formerly Christian (although not since she was a child) atheist.

And for those who say that you cannot be an atheist and a Jew, the following people are/were atheists:

Larry David
Sarah Silverman
Both Carl and Rob Reiner
Gene Wilder
Jerry Lewis
Randy Newman

Even (although I hate to bring him up) Woody Allen is an atheist. Good luck convincing people either Larry David or Woody Allen aren't Jewish.

Please tell me she has, at least once, made a reference to "your people killing my savior"

I know an ethnically jewish/religious catholic couple that do this every time they get into an argument and realize it's stupid to argue about, one of them will go "WELL YOU KILLED MY GOD!" and that's basically the end of the argument because they're too busy giggling.

I wish! My mom is DEVOUT. She has no sense of humor about it. If any of us tried to joke about it she'd send us right to purgatory (aka the catholic pattern buffer).
