Non-white/BIPOC & Latine Winter Holiday Romances
After spending hours scrolling the same white, cis-het, holiday romances on mainstream lists, I decided to say f- this, I'll do it myself.

I made a blog just so I could have a consolidated place for my holiday romances 🫶🏼

Op-Ed: Travis Kelce decided to reinforce the status quo by saying it will be an “honor” to have Donald Trump watch him play in the Super Bowl. But now is not the time to show respect to the office of the President of the United States as he does not seem to respect many of the citizens he governs. ⤵️
No Travis Kelce, It's Not an ‘Honor’ to Have Trump Watch You Play Football
Now is actually not the time to be respectful to the office of the President of the United States.

If I were an academic librarian whose library was being blockaded...I would be out there supporting those students in whatever way I could. Good for them. We can't say we defend first amendment rights and are "superheroes for democracy" if we're working against our patrons.
NOW: NYU students have blockaded Bobst library with sleeping dragons calling for NYU to divest from death.
Per release, “We were promised disclosure. We will get disclosure. We will escalate for Gaza. NYU students
will not stop until our demands are met.”

The emphasis changed from “getting kids ready for life” to “getting kids ready to fight the Communists in the space race” and that’s why we don’t have mandatory accounting/home ec/shop class anymore.

Carmen Maria Machado said, "We deserve to have our wrongdoing represented as much as our heroism because when we refuse wrongdoing as a possibility for a group of people, we refuse their humanity" and I think about that every time I sit down to write about another flawed, messy Black woman.
