oddly enough, talking about my grandmother in this post and the fact that to me, she’s a hero makes me miss her extra. i’m so grateful i got to spend time with such an incredible, strong woman. i wish i had gotten more time with her.
Genuine question: In what way is the "3000 year promise" joke specifically anti-semitic and not just anti-Israel? I saw a post about this on here a while ago. I don't like Israel but I don't want to be offensive to non-zionist Jewish people.

i could go on and on about her. she was the best. she used to prepare my favorite foods for when i would come visit, always had little gifts stashed away for me, handmade me blankets and clothing, was so fucking sassy. micromanaged so much in the most mizrahi way possible, which means it was out of love. i’m lucky as hell to be her first namesake.

so many of her passions were passed onto me. she loved doing art, especially needlework. sewing was one of her many talents. i fell in love with it by fourteen. i even got her fiery attitude.
