The entire series is just him dropping knowledge bombs and throwing the most subtle shade at religion and it’s fucking beautiful.

All of these women are Jewish. Let’s not erase that.

NO ONE GIVES A FUCK IF THEY’RE JEWISH OR HISPANIC OR WHITE OR BLACK OR ASIAN OR MUSLIM OR HINDU, WHY CAN’T WE JUST APPRECIATE THEIR ACHIEVEMENTS.

because representation is important, and not to mention that two of these women are actively practicing jews

mayim bialik is a modern orthodox jewish woman who would read the torah on set between filming scenes for The Big Bang Theory, and natalie portman grew up studying at jewish schools and speaks hebrew, and often speaks about how important judaism is to her in interviews

i’m a jewish girl and i “give a fuck” that these cool ladies are all jewish too

recognizing that facts takes nothing away from their achievements: if anything, it makes those achievements even grander when you consider they all belong to an extreme minority that has been shunned and faced hatred around the world

not to mention that Hedy Lamarr was an Austrian-Jewish woman inventing this tech and starring in movies during the era of Nazi fucking Germany

so that’s why stating their ethnicity matters
