Freedom over Faith

#emergingcreator in #OrthodoxJudaism the belief is #god wants to segregate us from The rest of #humxn population. That we are bounded by all these strict rules, to be deemed #holy and enter their heaven. But I’ve been sick as a child, of the hysteria, control, theophobia, manipulatio

I perfer my 🚽 in private!

#emergingcreator In an 🌍 #idealworld we will have #bathrooms that are #accessible #genderinclusive and safe for all to attend. To denied anyone the right to relieve themselves is torture. Whether they are homeless, poor, trans, disabled, bipoc, etc. we can all relate to the pain of wa

Kindness over Arguments

There’s an #oldadage that goes “better to be #wise to exit, that needing to prove You’re always right.” I’m a believer of #kindness even when we are disagreeing and having a #matureconversation ! Which many folks forget to hold even as they age. #peaceofmind is more important than argu

When religious family has no 💕 to give

It’s ironic that my #OrthodoxJewish #relatives all abandoned me when I fled their 🌍 and especially when I #cameout . Like I’m a disposable #HumxnTrash 🚮 I internalized too long that I was on the side of wrong, or they would never hear 👂 my tears 😭 and rage 😡 This #cousin claimed along

Find the 💙 joy 🥲 in small things

#emergingcreator At first this reminded me of growing up in a #Jewish household and needed to remove blood 🩸 from any #egg yolk to ensure it’s #kosher ! And similarly for my #bday eating a gyro 🥙 with #friends, I saw this Ambah ❤️ in my sauce.

F*ck white Christian ✝️ America 🇺🇸

The amount of #xenophobia / #whitenationalism that has come out since the #trump admin is atrocious! #america was never founded by European colonizers but by the #NativeAmericans who have welcomed us all to their lands, despite all the suffrage they’ve endured. USA 🇺🇸 is never meant

Do blondes 👱🏽‍♀️ truly have it better?

For years, I wanted to go full #blonde but not in a #whitegirl way, but #honey blonde like #beyonce . To match my #melanin / complexion and not feel like I’m whitewashing my mizrahi identity. My mother 👩 wouldnt let, since the bleach will ruin my curls. She said she would do stripes,

Burn 🔥 all Nazism Books 📚

As revenge for the #hell that the Nazis caused my #people among other oppressed minorities. Nazi #Germany at the time wanted to burn all books that were on the left, humanistic and would give society a moral compass 🧭 I believe these type of #books shouldn’t be available in a #library

Biblical stone or magical hoax?

When I was in 4th grade, a #rabbi pulled out this #stone to prove that #MountSinai existed hence to claim the #torah is true. He said if you cracked the stone a #tree would emerge, and of course it was fascinating for kids to watch. Now as an adult 🧑 who is agnostic, I don’t believe

TWOC Mothers Us All

The fight for #transrights is an ongoing battle. When so many #Queer Trans #AtRiskYouth don’t have our own #parents to love 💕 us, #transwomen of color like Ceyenne Doroshow from Glits have paved the way. I love seeing Motha finally getting her iconic flowers 🌺

A smile 😊 is everywhere!

#smiles are known to give you endorphins, improve your #mentalhealth #heal the downtrodden, improve your #positive outlook. But I also do hate, when people give #FakeSmiles to be sly, and they think others don’t see through their bullshit 💩
