Another white woman Jew here. I’m trying to balance my current fear and anger and rage with a general reminder to myself that this increased feeling of fear and systematic oppression is what poc (and Jews of color) have felt and lived under for the entirety of US history. I think that helps place the feelings I’m…

We’re only white until a nazi starts nazi-img at us. White passing privilege isn’t worth shit when the anti-semitism is focused on the idea of (((they live amongst us))).

I actually would like to hear it.

Down With Love, because I will always love Ewan McGreggor.

Kat Von D’s eyeliner is great for this. It’s like using a calligraphy brush to put on eyeliner. You can get a good dupe from Jesse’s Girl that’s about $6-8 at Rite Aid.
