How YOU doin’? ✋🏾 I already miss Betty White immeasurably. What this world needs now is more Betty White. And more cowbell. Off the top lemme say if we can’t have a laugh, sing a song or have a good, cleansing cry at the end of the day life’s not worth living. I seek out the laughs and songs and lean into the tears to hold space, witness and remember. You don’t need to know where I went to school or where I have worked to know who I am, but if you know my family you know me. I am descended from the Nation of Israel/Judea by way of (among others) Rega, 🇱🇻 , Jhitomer, 🇷🇺/🇺🇦 , Philipoppoli/Plovdiv, Beirut, 🇱🇧 and some 🇮🇪/🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 mixed in for genetic health balance ;) Lived in San Francisco, Scarsdale, Kaiserslautern, Ramat Aviv, Larchmont, Kaiserswerth, Madison Park, Montlake, Vashon and West Seattle, the most beautiful neighborhood in the city, IMO. I’m an Ashkephardic left-handed, old-school bleeding heart liberal neurodivergent unregulated empath (ie: I can’t finish anything, but I’ll drop anything for a good, passionate conversation, research rabbit hole or to lend an ear or a shoulder) currently living in the PNW Diaspora, consciously exploring de-assimilation and voraciously learning all the things I don’t yet know and unlearning the things that need unlearning. Big Libra ♎️ Heart-centered. Fairness obsessive. Humor-oriented. Context-focused. Practicing listening, craving new learning; here to share truths by making connection and holding mutual space. Here to champion the rights of all my fellow humans 🏳️‍🌈 🏳️‍⚧️ ⚧ ✊🏽 ✊🏾 ✊🏿 + If you tell me who you identify as I am not here to tell you you’re wrong. I and no one else is qualified to do that. Zionism is baked in my boreka 🥟 Borekas are my religion. I harmonize more than I solo, but I SANG 🎶 I dance unabashedly 🕺🏻 I speak and laugh loud and deep 😂 I’m defiantly nutty 🥜 I’m in the world to help create peace for every single person ✌🏾✊🏽 🖤 I’m a soldier for mutual respect. #loveoneanotherrightnow #actagainstantisemitism #ifitellyousomethingasajewpleaselisten
