when i started writing this comic, there were courses on duolingo for klingon and dothraki, fictional languages that are only spoken by characters on television shows who don’t exist, but the course for yiddish, a language spoken by jews – real, living, breathing people – for generations, didn’t exist until april 2021.
in 2017 a jewish employee at the anne frank museum was asked to put a baseball cap over his yarmulke. yeah, you read that right – an employee who worked in the house anne frank and her family hid for two years was asked to hide his judaism when he came into work.
what i’m saying is goyim are trying very hard to pretend jewish people don’t exist anymore, and it’s safer for a man to tattoo a swastika on his face than it is for me to wear a necklace with a symbol of my culture on it.
Why do straight women kiss their male counterparts with like open mouthy passionate shite but when they kiss a woman it's like lemme-smoosh-my-mouth-against-yours and then we move our faces but definitely not our lips.
Genuinely, there's so many series atm that have awesome representation and I have zero desire to watch them cuz the gifs look so.. uncomfortable!?
Anyway. Shoutout to Sepideh Moafi who actually goes for it 10.000%. I love.
Sometimes I wish we still were novices, you and I. Still innocent enough to see it all as a gleeman’s tale come true… Still innocent enough to dream of the happy ending to the gleeman’s tale, of living our lives as other women do.
