Hi!

Yeah, I know it's extremely last minute and its ironic considering ive been yapping on this sub about how we should bring this tradition back since Passover. I had meant to do a more organized exchange, but I had a some crazy life stuff come up several weeks ago and here we are now.

These are some of the types of cards I still have. I ran out of the stoner honey bears blowing on the shofar pipes.

I really think sending hand made postcards to people during the high holidays is one of the coolest Jewish art traditions that should be brought back in style again, especially in a world being consumed by AI garbage. Just for your own benefit, vintage Rosh Hashanah postcard designs is a great google rabbit hole to fall down.

Just send me a message or comment here telling me to message you (idk if I allow message requests on here)

. I know a lot of people dont want to give out their addresses to someone on Reddit, and I get that, but I promise you that I dont have the attention span or the interest in doing anything more than writing the address on the back of a postcard and walking 2 blocks to drop it into the neighborhood mailbox.

I dont understand how most of my small town goverment works, but I think there should be a group of people called the 'Town Tree Council' who dress like Ring Wraiths from LOTR, and they should have final say in making all the tree-related laws and planning the town's Arbor Day festivities. You cant cut down a tree without going to the Town Tree Council first. We should never learn their real names or identify, but instead select a species tree name from a pre-selected list of all tree species native to the area.

I think if Elon Musk is going to try and live forever as some kind of cyborg, it should have to be a Furby. No arms. No legs, just feet that are too small to work. A potato with a face.

I didnt want to take an actual photo of a neighbor to post here, so here my doodle of 'Edward Leaf Blower Hands'

There's a man who lives in the corner house across the street from me. Pretty much every day, he puts on a tank top, basketball shorts,wrap around sunglasses, and construction worker headphones, and he carries a leaf blower in each hand. It doesnt matter what season it is, or if there arent any leaves, he walks around his property and the surrounding homes, for hours...hours. He never speaks to anyone, but he looks annoyed at having to do this... one time I saw him walk after/ blow the same, singular dried leaf from one end of the street to the other, just back and forth, for over an hour.

Sometimes I think about gluing a fake leaf into the middle of the road during rush hour, just to be able to sleep in late again on the weekends.

Rosh Hashanah is one of my all time favorite holidays, so I made more cards than I needed this year.

Anyway, I just think it would be cool to keep the Rosh Hashanah post card tradition going by seeing if anyone here wanted to exchange cards. Ive also got leftover Tu B'Av cards, general matzah ball soup cards, Barry Sister cards that dont specifically say a holiday, and Sukkot cards.

I made the top hat using an old pill bottle cap and an empty cork thread spool, stacked ontop of eachother and put into the toe of an old stocking sock. The monocle is made entirely from florist wire, the cane is a stick wrapped in florist wire, the hair is cotton balls.

The tiny Chef hat I made with two bottle caps and three rubber bands wrapped around an old dish rag. His spatula is wire and the pan is another bottle cap wrapped in wire.

The artist beret is the toe off an old sock, the pallet is cardboard, the paintbrush is a toothpick with yarn attached to the end. The easel is just a mini display board I got at the dollar tree. The painting itself is something I made on a postcard just to test out a new rosin seal, so it's already weathered proof so I glued it onto the easel. To keep the painting from blowing away in the wind, I tied three corn cob holders onto the easel legs with rubber bands and staked it into the ground. Its been a couple weeks and it hasn't been blown away.

Think he took some of the advice and focused the image on Mop Man.
