Lol and oy 😢

Lol 🤦🏻‍♂️

What I'm saying is: thank you 💜

And now you, of course, in all your queer glory (in all senses), light the sky up for those of us who maybe *have* been defeated by the academy, and who also know as you do, that the academy needs to be burned down, but not in the way that its current attackers think!

But more importantly, I remember that visit, it was one of my first invitation invitations, and I was pretty nervous... when we use the Time Machine to go back in the past, let me know that you a fellow queer are there?

And would find a way to unnecessarily but also very necessarily make queerness part of the story... even at the Shabbat table of my rather conservative parents. 😆.

Oh my gods! 😳😳😳 whaaa!!! I did not know this 🥲. (I did have a blue stripe, a manga-like blue lowlight 😂). But I'm super touched and grateful to you for sharing this. My youngest sibling used to call my ostentatious queerness, my "lesbian toothbrush." I could be talking about brushing my teeth 1/

Did a tiny hike with these lovely people before listening to a fantastic summary of law and policy in today's ever shifting world.

Lit had a paper called "'Their Backs toward the Temple, and Their Faces toward the East:' The Temple and Toilet Practices in Rabbinic Palestine and Babylonia" 🤣

Thank you for reading 💜 and also for getting what the book is about 🥹
