@ all the religious queers who follow me (or don't lol), y'all should reblog this with what your favorite part of your religion is. it could be a particular ritual, an item, a belief within it, an experience you had, anything!

we should share some good against all the bad that we get <3

Shana Tova! Here are picks of my Rosh Hashana outfit and matching nails.

Vid of my nails has no sound.

Shirt and skirt with pockets from @nerdykeppie.

Also, huge shoutout to Kinetic Color Foundry for these fidget rings that are saving me these High Holy Days. These are made by one neurodivergent person with a 3D printer who could use a lot more love.

I ordered this Star of David design years ago through the custom form if anyone is interested (she also has an etsy but it's better to order through her site if you can):

Close-up pics of nails and more details under cut.

I normally buy a new dress for Rosh Hashana but wasn't able to this year. Day-of I realized that I hadn't worn this outfit yet so I was able to say Shecheheyanu over some amazing clothes designed by a queer Jew.

This outfit also helped inspire these fun Trans Octopus Rosh Hashana nails. I only had one octopus design which I repeated, and I used a koi fish to emulate the eel and create some texture. Super happy with how they turned out. I may do it again in the future if I get a stamping plate with more sea animal designs.

Here they are on a backdrop of the NK skirt.

And here they are on my little design board. I like taking pics on here because it's easy to arrange in a way that the words are readable. :)

Base polish is One Coat Black from Holo Taco. Octopus design and stamping polishes from Maniology, koi fish from random Amazon set, Hebrew stamping plate was from Etsy and was the only one so no link to share unfortunately.

My boyfriend rly catfished me (gefilte fished?) I really thought he was Jewish for the first like month we were dating. He didn’t lie about it or anything, I just assumed he was bc of how much he knew about Judaism from our conversations about it. Turns out this man just grew up in a predominantly Jewish neighborhood and loves Jewish comedy and pop culture. His family were the shabbos goyim of the neighborhood. My shabbos goy boyfriend. I love him so

I created a community for queer religious people (mainly focused on abrahamic religions but available for everyone) y’all should join

it’s named “god loves queers”

[kittyoverlord]

You bring me so much hope as a Jewish trans man who’s also an activist. You have no idea how close to tears I was to seeing that you are unapologetically Jewish and don’t just say “all the Jews are monsters” like a lot of the queer community does . I have no words for how grateful I am. I hope you have a LOVELY 2025 and thank you 💙

Thanks so much!!! This ask has been in my inbox for a while because I liked seeing it after deleting spam asks, but I don't just want to leave you on read lol.

Being Queer and Jewish is a complex dance, but I wouldn't want to be any other way. It brings me such joy to know that others are getting this kind of meaning out of my blog.

I appreciate you reaching out and hope you have a great year!

When we wake up together in Brooklyn, we are three thousand miles away from our daily lives on the West Coast, and I already know that I am in love with her. We have slept facing East, and sunrise, Jerusalem, farther; the morning light streams in through thin curtains, and when I open my eyes I can see her smiling at me. We have grown close to one another, and then closer; I look at this smile of hers, and I think that maybe she has started to see her future in me. That night we celebrate Shabbat with her family, and then we return to bed, to celebrate with each other.

This is a simple jewish story and a simple love story. A nice Jewish boy meets a nice Jewish girl in the woods, and they start what seems to be a summer camp romance, only it holds, and through the campfire flirtation, they become an us. But the story here is also between two queers, and this infuses each layer: My butch self ot her femme self, my tattoos against her bare skin, the glasses that we each have to take off when we kiss, my white T-shirt against her black slip, and my palms, pressed into hers, fingers entwined; all of the ways that love has threaded itself between us, the most simple and complex revelations.

Before we know each other well, and before we tell each other our stories, and before I am hers, and she is mine, there is the beginning, and in the beginning I walk across the room to talk to her. She is on one side, and I am on the other, and I am immediately drawn to her, compelled. And then there is also the act of standing near her: there is this deep flash of recognition between us, this low hum just below the surface. There is this feeling of familiarity, and ease underneath all the words that we are saying, and all the words that we are not saying -- and this feeling between us is like speaking a second language, like speaking the language of our homeland, uncovered. Right from the start, this standing near her, it leaves me wanting more. "

My judaica got here! Sorry for the awkward kippah pic, turns out it’s not easy to take photos of your head. And pardon the mess in the background, I’m in the midst of redecorating.

I got married on May 13! I loved designing our invitations (and all other paper) but the greatest honor was illuminating our ketubah. My husband is Jewish and it was important to us to honor his cultural and faith tradition with a Jewish ceremony. It was fun and exciting to adapt that framework to reflect who we are as a gay couple, and our Rabbi did a beautiful job guiding all of us through the service.

The ketubah is likely the most important artwork I will ever create. It was a true labor of love.

The big difference between what Dump screamed about last time and now is that there is actual investigations happening and we witnessed voter suppression. Ballot burning, Russian deep-fakes & Interference, missing mail-in ballots, and some more. The Election isn’t officially over until December-ish. There is STILL counting and recounting! Kamala conceded to be diplomatic. It. Isn’t. Over! We need to message Biden and demand more be done to ensure everyone was heard and that Americans remain safe. Hold out hope and fight.

Honestly I expected worse but damn!

“Jews voted for Trump because he supports Israel it’s their fault he won” is a thing I have heard a lot in the past two days, so have some statistics:

Okay? Now admit that you’re just antisemitic and fuck off.
