Real Omg. I Observe Tznius Loosely (just Cover My Chest, Knees, And Shoulders) And Dress Vintage And

real omg. i observe tznius loosely (just cover my chest, knees, and shoulders) and dress vintage and it’s often a fine line between fashionably modest and mormon 😔😔

the worst part about tzniut is you cannot make up fun terms to describe ways you make your life more modest because you will end up sounding like a mormon talking about soaking. like I add little chains to the collars of my shirts when the buttons don't go all the way up because I don't want to sew on more buttons. I cant call that a modesty chain. that sounds like a sex thing that people forced into celibacy do. I feel like such a silly little man sometimes.

hate when i’m braiding my hair and i get one of this fucking. random loops of hair that sticks out of the braid. ykwim???

oh… the reactions when i posted something on IG condemning leftist antisemitism… not great….

chat am i cooked? proof reading a draft and one of my sentences is 85 words long

also ornamental last names!! ashkenazim were sometimes forcibly assigned last names like “goldberg” and “shapiro”. imo there’s nothing wrong with not wanting a name that was essentially forced upon your family in diaspora.

really pisses me off when people say that israel ashkenazim who hebraized their last names to sound "more indigenous" but its also kind of funny because they're secretly admitting that Hebrew is an indigenous language of the levant
