today i'm writing about miriam, the first prophetess named in the torah (though Sarah is technically the first prophetess). she was a fucking badass who worked as a midwife at the age of 5, and spoke up against the patriarchy at a time when Israelite women did not participate in "public life." my essay will detail how miriam can inspire us to be free this passover/pandemic — her legacy is that of creativity, vitality, feminism, and sex-positivity. god and moses may have led the israelites out of slavery, but it was miriam and her timbrel that showed them *how* to be free. obviously bondage is super sexy, but not when we lose the handcuffs' key. how are u keeping urself physically + mentally free during self-isolation? for me, it's onlyfans and pouring myself into a multitude of projects. somehow, i'm just as busy as i was pre-corona...
