i need feminism because when jesus does a magic trick it’s a goddamn miracle but when a woman does a magic trick she gets burned at the stake
Imagine being part of a minority group that not only has faced genocide on a number of occassions but also when history regales the horrors of other minority groups that were slaughtered yours is regularly forgotten or left out. And then western culture takes the racial slur that people associate with your minority group and then profits off of it and it becomes a trend to purchase things with your racial slur all over the product which has little to nothing to do with your ethnic group.
And then people apply that racial slur to themselves and use the excuse of "reclaiming it" when we all very well know that those people "reclaiming it" aren't actually part of your ethnic group. But your diversity makes a great cover for anyone that thinks that they can slip into it like a skin.
Additionally imagine if your ethnic group was so culturally appropriated that it isn't even treated like an ethnicity but a spiritual movement by western culture.
and yet it did, so i'll make my peace with the fact that at least i did learn something, therefore making it all not a completely useless experience.

Your whole fish-sin thing reminds me of how I told my mom the other day that other than humans, theres yk a couple species of monkeys, some bats, and 2 kinds of mice that have menstrual cycles, other animals don't. Menstrual cycles are supposedly the result of original sin (this is based on catholic theology idk abt anyone else) ergo mice must have sinned in the garden. That was her conclusion, that mice are sinners.
I need like 5 catholics to peer review this take for me, but it sounds like something fun to incorporate into my worldview.
Hey! 😊
I hope you're doing well.
II’m reaching out with something really close to my heart. A dear friend and his family are going through an incredibly hard time.
They urgently need support, and even the smallest act of kindness — a share or donation — could make a life changing difference.
This is about compassion, about standing by each other when it matters most. 💛
Thank you so much for taking a moment to care 🙏
