Shoutout to all the 1997-2001 kids who are somehow hybrids of millennials and gen z. We are the Ultimate Generation of 90’s nostalgia and new age internet depression.

i’m here for the jews that don’t feel jewish.
for the jews that don’t look jewish. who are torn between rejecting or embracing a stereotype that never fit them in the first place.
for the jews who don’t speak hebrew. who fumble over prayers or can’t remember the last time they’ve stepped foot into a synagogue.
for the jews who don’t keep kosher. who text on shabbat. who love cheese burgers and especially bacon.
for the jews who have just converted. who feel out of place. who find themselves lost during services, overwhelmed, and unsure of who to ask for help.
for the jews of color who constantly feel othered. who have their jewishness scrutinized and their opinions dismissed. who deal with antisemitism outside of their community and racism within.
for the jews who are patrilineal. who feel like they constantly have to prove their jewishness. who are looked down upon and shunned for something completely beyond their control.
for the ethnic jews who grew up detached from culture or religion. who never got to have a bar mitzvah. who have to google the meanings of holidays and prayers. who learn about their own people from wikipedia pages.
for the disabled jews who can’t participate in services. for the lgbt jews who wonder if hashem still loves them. for the atheist jews who struggle to connect.
for any jew who has ever doubted their jewishness.
you are important, you are not alone, and you belong in this community.
my favorite Millennial Thing™ is when a group of us are standing around and talking and someone asks a question that no one knows the answer to and suddenly it’s a race to get out your phone and google it and be the first to know, and then someone starts reading the Wikipedia article about the thing aloud to everyone else, and what started as a casual conversation is now A Learning Opportunity and we all walk away a little more knowledgeable about a random topic
Like, Boomers hate when we do that, but I think it’s one of the best things about us.
So long as we have internet or a cell signal, all of the world’s collective knowledge is at our fingertips, and damned if we aren’t going to use it.
my therapist: how are you doing today?
what i say: i’m doing fine
what i really mean: y’all ever get really angry over the fact that his entire life tony stark was always willing to be the sacrifice to be the one that died bc he didn’t really have much to live for and then he had the avengers and even then he was willing to die but then steve destroyed tony and their whole relationship over bucky and then when tony finally found something to live for his wife, his kid, his alpaca, steve disrupted his whole life bc he wanted bucky back and for the first time in tony’s life he didn’t want to be the selfless sacrificing person he was bc he didn’t want to leave his family beind and then steve dragged him back into a war he didn’t want to fight and then tony died for that and then steve went back in time and disregarded bucky and sam for a woman who had moved in with her life and got married to another guy and had children of her own and tony really died for nothing and his wife and child were left without him and bucky and sam were left without steve bc he fucking sucks
Thank god for rdj
rdj kissing josh brolin on the lips is such a power move. the man doesn’t give a single fuck. he’s the male protagonist archetype of this century but he will kiss as many guys as he pleases because he can and there’s nothing hollywood can do about it
