I Seriously Have To Redraw This Again At Some Point.

Got a new sketchbook and did a color swatch on the very first page:

Between the Stars and the Sea

It's a cruel subconscious ingraining of double standards, really. I absolutely suggest looking into actual, unbiased history of all this and only then can people reach an educated conclusion. But I doubt that many people would take that advice...

This probably won’t be super coherent, because I haven’t slept in 24 hours and I’m basically 80% caffeine, but I’ve been thinking about how western (usually white, though not always) goyim get mad whenever a Jew says “antizionism is usually a cover for antisemitism.” And how their answer is always, “my problem is Israel! Not Jews!”

Because here’s the thing: the west has a long, long history of culturally ingrained antisemitism. You may not think your hatred towards Israel and the diaspora Jews who have any connection to Israel is because it’s a Jewish state. But society has subconsciously primed you from birth to see Jews as inherently shady liars who have all the power and money and control, and who claim victimhood to hide this. You have been groomed to mistrust us, to see us as oppressors, to see us as intrinsically unethical. And you are aware that Israel is a Jewish state, regardless of whether you consciously think it matters. So when literally anything goes down in Israel/Palestine? Your first thought isn’t that these are two marginalized groups of people who were forced into the situation by both the west and the Middle East, then pitted against each other. Your first thought is that of course the Israelis are evil oppressors. They’re over-privileged white colonizers who have all the power and money and control. We need to make sure they all leave Israel, live under a second age of pogroms, or die (which they won’t, according to you, because they’re rich white people with a mansion in New Jersey). And you may believe that you don’t feel this way because they’re Jewish, but you don’t seem to realize that it’s the subconscious, ingrained antisemitism that not only leads you to all of these conclusions, but that also leads you to independently attach historically diaspora-focused antisemitic tropes—tropes that’s existed for thousands of years and have nothing to do with Israel—to Israelis and beyond.

And then you wonder why we don’t trust you.

we were all forced to read “classics” in school so reblog and put the one you actually ended up liking a lot and the one you can’t fucking stand in the tags

my fave is Lord of the Flies and I ironically enough want to burn every copy of Fahrenheit 451. trash

hey people here's the ultimate boop guide!! (in case ur confused)

to boop people, just go to either the home/explore page and scroll until you find someone with a boop button next to their name like this ↓

just click that and u booped someone!!

(some people opted out so not everyone has that option)

(also, it doesn't matter if the person is following you, your moot, etc,, u can just boop a random stranger!)

you can also boop yourself by going to your own blog and click the boop button on top of a post that you made/reblogged !

(also gives you this pop-up lol)

you can also view someone's blog and then boop them with this button !

last but not least we have the super boop !!

find any boop button, hover over it for a few seconds, then it should do a spinning animation; then click it and if it gives u this pop-up that means it worked :3

update: i didnt know how to super boop on mobile but this reply should explain it (i haven't tried it though, im not on mobile) :3

update: looks like super booping on mobile is not working for most people (but u should try it anyways, just in case it does for u)

im gonna try super booping everyone who interacts with this lol

ok im also gonna attempt to super boop your other accounts too

I CANT KEEP UP HELPP 😭 (also its almost midnight for me now..)

woke up with 7k notes and its still going 😭 not attempting to boop every single person anymore lol.. 💔

Do I need to prove this any further….

It’s absolutely mindblowing to me that there are certain people who are more upset over a woman who survived a terrorist attack placing second at a singing competition than they are about Kanye’s latest song.

Just overheard my sister finding a fusion recipe of latke and schnitzel online.

Sounds intriguing but in a (sort of) good way.

Hanukkah is coming up so soon! I want to know: what's the weirdest or most creative latke variation you've seen (either the latke itself or the toppings).

I've seen people adding pickles to their latkes and I reaaaally want to try that! Also churro style latkes, which sounds amazing.

My campus had a telescope that could safely display the eclipse happening in real-time. It was wild!

Someone there also brought a camera to take pictures too. I did my best to take photos from the display.

who out here watching the eclipse? anybody got pics? we're overcast as hell so i can't see a thing :(

I seriously need to update my profile picture….

I haven't been feeling too well emotionally lately this week. One due to recent tragic events and the other is some personal mental health stuff I've been dealing with for a while.

it's uncertain when I'll continue posting again here....
