These UK anti-immigration hostilities make me resent my home country even more. The exhaustion of feeling unwelcome here while also not being able to safely return "home." Fuck homophobia!!!
Miss Argentina and Miss Puerto Rico announce they are now married.
The couple, Mariana Varela and Fabiola Valentín, kept their relationship a secret since meeting at Miss Grand International 2020.
The UK government calls £50,271 a “high earner” in London for tax purposes. The UK housing market calls £50k “not enough for a mortgage deposit in London.”
Make it make sense.
Does anyone else have the problem of writing on one level and speaking on another? My husband looked at my work and said, "I had no idea you thought like this. Why don't you speak like this?" -- Honestly? Everything gets caught or jumbled before it comes out. Suggestions?
I’m struggling internally. The more I read, the less certain I feel about my own ideas, and the more tensions I see within myself. This PhD is rewiring my brain. Will I like what comes out at the end? 😅
After the Taliban regained power, Afghan women were barred from playing sports. In quiet protest, they stood beneath their burqas holding the equipment from the games they were no longer allowed to play.

“A friend turned out to be an extreme homophobe.”
Dave Bautista once covered up a tattoo of a close friend after the friend revealed themselves to be homophobic.
You can’t oppose dictatorship in #Venezuela and at the same time support Paul Biya’s 40-plus-year authoritarian rule in #Cameroon. Stop playing in our faces!
The Venezuelan people are today rid of Nicolás Maduro’s dictatorship and can only rejoice.
By seizing power and trampling on fundamental freedoms, Nicolás Maduro gravely undermined the dignity of his own people.
The upcoming transition must be peaceful, democratic, and respectful of the will of the Venezuelan people. We wish that President Edmundo González Urrutia, elected in 2024, can swiftly ensure this transition.
I am currently exchanging with our partners in the region.
France is fully mobilized and vigilant, including to ensure the safety of its nationals during these uncertain times.
