Date: September 9th, 2026 8:36 PM Author: Olive macaca wrinkle Tikkun olam (/tiˈkuːn ʌˈlɑːm/, or more classically tikkun ha'olam; Hebrew: תִּיקּוּן עוֹלָם, romanized: tiqqūn ʻōlām, lit. 'repairing the world'), is a religious concept in Judaism, which refers to various forms of action intended to repair and improve the world.
...
In the modern era, particularly among the post-Haskalah movements, tikkun ha'olam has come to refer to the pursuit of social justice,[2] or "the establishment of Godly qualities throughout the world",[3] based on the idea that "Jews bear responsibility not only for their own moral, spiritual, and material welfare, but also for the welfare of society at large".[4] This understanding of tikkun olam has deep roots in midrash, musar, and Jewish thought that connect tikkun ha'olam to building society, loving one's neighbors, and to religious humanism in general.[1] |

Date: September 9th, 2026 8:39 PM Author: concupiscible citrine crackhouse boistinker There’s this repulsive tendency of Redditors to be more engrossed in “lore” and canon than concerned with a story or idea worth expressing. (https://xoxohth.com/thread.php?thread_id=5902092&forum_id=2#50125766) |

Date: September 9th, 2026 8:52 PM Author: Arrogant Foreskin Electric Furnace Wow so glad this latest episode introduced more lore. Also wow can't believe the people saying x, thats just pure head canon. Although the idea of y has now been retconned and isn't canon anymore. It has been fully erased from lore.

Date: September 10th, 2026 11:35 AM Author: Richard Ames Totally agree. It puts the cart before the horse and is done in place of good storytelling and writing.
"World building" in a story should be emergent, not the dominant, driving force.
Imagine if The X Files' pilot episode started with some big "black oil" mystery montage instead of an investigation into the Bellefleur case. |
