Being Latinx doesn't absolve you from white supremacy. I've noticed that many Latinx people use their identity, ethnicity, and race as a type of exoneration from anti-Blackness.Further, being Latinx does not automatically make you anti-racist. There's much, much work to be done.

@PoseOnFX is the show that Kate Bush should be thanking first of all. #StrangerThings4 took Running Up That Hill a step further. The Dear Billy episode is poetic.

I've stopped primarily seeing anglicized Spanish words as a tragedy, or as something stolen. It can still be that, to be clear. But sometimes, it's evidence of survival. I resent when previous generations are scolded for "losing their culture" w/o acknowledging what they survived

@LeaundraRoss For a 7 year old I would show her projects she can do for both and have her choose. Crochet is seen as easier bec of 1 needle. I didn’t find it easier to learn than knitting. Knitting projects are beautiful. I don’t like the way crochet projects look so I’m biased lol

I’d heard indigenous Puerto Rican children were kept at Carlisle Indian School at the beginning of the 20th century but I’d never seen photographs or names… hits kinda heavy given most ppl say the indigenous people of the archipelago were “gone” by the early 1700s 😒

@Muna_Mire It me. But I will say once you start driving it’ll become second nature just like every person you would look up to who did drive as a teen! Freedom! But I miss hopping on the subway and not have to be “on” the entire time driving

“Life will break you. Nobody can protect you from that, and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you with its yearning. You have to love. You have to feel. It is the reason you are here on earth.

No one should die at work.
Heat death is entirely preventable.

My beautiful and talented friend
Florence Griffith Joyner, aka Flo Jo, died from an epileptic seizure caused by a congenital vascular abnormality that caused seizures, NOT FROM DRUGS

I don’t know who you are but keep her name out of your lying mouth.

The smell of a sprinkler in a playground on a 95 degree day in New York City? I would buy that candle. This is my sea salt
