And the lucky foods are finished! But preparations continue. (The challot are from a bakery, everything else that needed to be cooked was cooked by me.) Have a great year, everyone!

What poster did you have hanging on the wall as a child?

Art by Alphonse Mucha. A woman with red flowers in her long blonde hair, wearing a dress printed with sickles, holds a plate of biscuits. The test reads Biscuits Lefevre-Utile 1897

one of the things I like best in fiction is simply when characters the readers like are allowed to dislike each other and do not ever have to learn better about it. all of my fictional friends do not have to be friends. in fact sometimes it is better when they are enemies, for petty reasons

Oh, it's the 1957 Soviet animated version, except we didn't actually have the movie (or anything to watch it on, for that matter) but a record+book combo (also it was in English. Probably excerpted from the English dub).

"Men are incapable of restraining their sexual urges" / "Women are incapable of restraining their sexual urges" These are both stereotypes that exist under patriarchy, and somehow the solution to both of them is less freedom for women, and never less freedom for men.

Naomi Libicki @nlibicki.bsky.social · 13/03/2025

There are stereotypes about men being incapable, though, like "men are incapable of running a household" (so women have to do it for them). There are also cases where the same negative stereotypes exist about men and women in different cultures or even somehow in the same culture... (continued)

I really liked The Unspoken Name by AK Larkwood; I just started reading the sequel so I don't know if it's as good as the first one yet. And since you said self-recs are welcome you should try Schemes of the Wayfarer by Drew Sarkis (it's a joint pen name) if you haven't yet XD

Naomi Libicki @nlibicki.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

as well as detailing other lives that intersected with hers. It was entertaining and educational, so I can't really complain.

Naomi Libicki @nlibicki.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

While the subject of the biography remains fascinating but elusive, the book is happy to take long tangents into the history of crime, the public perception of crime, and the criminal justice system, and how much all of these things changed throughout Mrs. Mandelbaum's career...

Naomi Libicki @nlibicki.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

a sentiment I think I share with the author, who seems frustrated with the relative lack of sources on her life, despite how famous she was in her day.

Naomi Libicki @nlibicki.bsky.social · 15/02/2025

I finished reading The Talented Mrs. Mandelbaum: The Rise and Fall of an American Organized-Crime Boss by Margalit Fox. Before I read this book, I had never heard of Fredericka Mandelbaum. Having read the book, I still don't know as much about Fredericka Mandelbaum as I would like... (thread)

Ooof yeah, I hear that, I've been pretty blocked for the last couple of months for one reason and another. It's so hard to get momentum back and get started again; it's extra frustrating when external factors stop you just when you're getting going. I hope it's back and you can pick up again!

I substituted canola oil for butter for the purposes of making them dairy-free and substituted coffee liqueur for the vanilla and added more salt for the purposes of making them tastier; I think all of the substitutions came out well
