Is anyone else finding it insane to scroll through recipes on TikTok while people are starving in Gaza? This fucked up unequal world is reaching unprecedented levels.

Every time I see a cybertruck in the wild it's like sorry I don't believe a real person bought one of these with their own money. These are paid actors

If you want a book that will fuck with Trump’s racist little weasel mind, you should read LOVE ACROSS BORDERS.
Book club coming soon, with relevant discussions for how we can support immigrants & advocates:

If colleges and universities can’t stand up against campus rapists, why would they stand up to federal authoritarianism?

It’s amazing how much Trump’s purge of all “DEI” related material is our version of historical revisionism…it’s erasing the history of slavery, the civil rights era and so much else to white wash America and erase everything that makes us us

i hope someone is keeping a running list of how many "temporary" changes that the administration is making so we can see how many of them are still in effect after six months or a year. (spoilers: it is going to be all of them)

When men rage, they blow and shoot things up and start wars.
When women rage, we create.
We knit, do embroidery and cross stitch. We create new things ... while we figure out how to fix the broken things.

A couple of years ago Bibi Bakare-Yusuf started an imprint of African romance novels that shut down quickly apparently for lack of demand. I think it was an idea before its time and I think she should try again.

What can I do for Gaza?
1) Identify your sphere of influence. Your school, your work place, organizations you're a part of.
2) Are they Boycott Divestment Sanctions (BDS) compliant? Have they cut ties with Israel and Israeli institutions?
3) If no, get to work! Organize!

It might behoove many US reporters to finally be in solidarity with Mexican reporters who know a thing or two about facing danger.

I love finding new friendly spaces, but I wonder how much the Internet and algorithms are destroying us. Is it just another form of divide and conquer?
But I also really don’t wanna hang out with Nazis…

Please, if you are able, support Independent bookshops.
They are the literary & social hubs of our high streets and communities.
Without their continued support, we simply wouldn't be around to publish .
Thank you.

One of the things that’s really fucking me up (can I swear here?) post election is how many Americans just do not give a shit about people who aren’t themselves/their demographic.
Like. I’m not gonna get deported—but I still care about people who are afraid of that? Am I in a minority? Shoot me

Hi everyone 👋 I’m Anna. I wrote a book called Love Across Borders that looks at the way love is shaped by borders and immigration. I’ve been told that I spice up the field of migration studies with tales of love and romance.
Unfortunately it’s very relevant right now.
