this is just too fucking good
if there’s a cool spot in hell i hope you get it
I believe Eretz Yisroel is sacred and holy, and I also believe the state of Israel is terrible and fights against the values that Judaism teaches in its illegal colonisation of Palestine. The holy land is for all of us, and Netanyahu clearly doesn’t believe that. Love for Eretz Yisroel, land of the Jews, Muslims, and Christians of all ethnicities, classes, and families, but fuck the state of Israel and fuck the IDF.
this is so well said!
Movies you should watch: Arranged (2009). Find it on Hulu!
Synopsis: Rochel is an Orthodox Jew, and Nasira a Muslim of Syrian origin. They are both young teachers at a public school in Brooklyn. They also have something else in common—they are going though the process of arranged marriages through their respective religions and traditional customs. With both family pressure on the one hand, and the rejection of traditional values by the outside world on the other, Rochel and Nasira will have to rely on each other and their friendship to pull through this difficult time of their lives, striving to be strong women in charge of their own happiness, while keeping their deep religious and cultural convictions.
This movie is soo good! You should definitely watch it if you haven’t already, it’s lovely.

I know what I’m doing after class tomorrow..THIS MOVIE IS PERFECT
I truly cannot recommend it enough, and omg Nasira is a perfect human being, and the actress who plays Rochel gets down SO MANY OF THE TICS of movement and gestures and everything that codes an ultra-Orthodox American Jewish woman. PERFECTION.
Want!!!!
this movie is the best! It’s so well made and comes from such a place of knowledge.
polaroids of mitski on the ferry today
there were a bunch of birds flying around us but they didn’t show up in the top picture because of overexposure (i wish the instax flash were controllable) so i drew them in.
Please don’t confront me with my failures
I have not forgotten them
