sure but when i say 'family of masc bitches' and 'vibes of an effeminate boy whose dad peaked playing high school football' i get yelled at
everyone always talks about the several genders of the talmud but nobody ever talks about the rabbis having a shorthand for denoting 'masc/femme' and 'i think that guy's a little gay'
sorry just saw one too many frum men mocking 'jewish feminists' instead of engaging with the text of the megillah and wondering why one might be able to come to the conclusions that some women come to
in fact, in the plain story of the text, i think that's how it should be read.
midrashim and mefarshim go into overdrive regarding vashti, but i do think some part of her pshat story is supposed to make you pause and realise the hell that esther is about to enter into
i dont think it's weird when jewish women read the pshat of the purim story & feel sadness for a woman who is nothing but a pawn in the world of her husband, and who is stripped of dignity for trying to exercise bodily autonomy.
i think it's weird when men are derisive of women bc of it
my favourite thing about conclave was the yarmulkes
standards of male beauty. nor how it echoes jewish men being accused of corrupting non jewish women.
fellas we are witnessing centuries old tropes being wielded en mass in real time.
i think antisemitism is so baked into our society, people don’t realise they engage in differing levels of it on a daily basis.
its not a huge stretch to point out the ways in which a man is being judged based on eurocentric (contd)
- features that are very jewish being spoken about with such contempt bc he is a public figure
- the notion that selena is “too good for him” and he/his features are beneath her like he’s some kind of corrupting or social climbing creature
- “he’s just unkempt” it’s a jewfro
i’m gonna say it.
all the talk about benny blanco being really ugly reeks of antisemitism.
i have AMAZING news for every jew with tummy issues (and also those with debt)
me if rereading the little midrash says was a crime
me if saying “yisgadal vyiskadash” any time i face a minor inconvenience were a crime
me if drinking kedem grape juice was a crime
me if loving hashem was a crime
biblically accurately sydney opera house
they’re gonna cancel oscar for having zionist ties
updates to come.
rebuilding a following is hard and time consuming. i’m gonna change my game here. here is my daily fart chart, as of 10.30am this morning.
the talmud according to conspiracy theorists:
if you see a non jew in the street slap them in the face and pee on them, the non jew is vile and we hate them so much
the actual talmud:
the rabbis are disagreeing about farting at work again :(
i’m mostly just posting poetry and dog pics anyway, i suppose that can happen anywhere
