Hey #romancelandia, I'm falling hard for you after my Rachel Reid awakening. Can't help but notice lots of Xmas and church casually braided into stories.

Curious: Who are the must-read Jewish romance writers?

No. What people on the left need to see is journalists informing the public rather than performing press release as a service.

People keep complaining about the red hats because they’re not β€œreal” protest but that lady has raised and donated over $600,000 to her neighbors in MN *and* is the the daughter of a refugee from Egypt. Y’all gotta sit with those impulses and then calm tf down and think about WHY you feel dismissive

And while everyone is feeling good about Benito giving a Grammy to someone who is not Liam Ramos: Congress can pass a personal bill to grant citizenship to Liam Ramos, his family and Kilmer Abrego Garcia.

My ideal version of America is what I saw Bad Bunny encapsulate: multicultural, multigenerational, queer, empathetic, and full of raucous love.

Good morning. The President of the United States was in the middle of the most serious child sex trafficking ring of the last quarter century.

He is referenced not a dozen times in the case files. Not 100 times. Not 1,000 times. He’s referenced 38,000 times.

What *about* that 5-year-old US citizen? Finish the sentence, Congressman. What does that hypothetical child have to do with Liam Ramos? Spell it out. Don’t just say β€œbut what about our kids” and stop there. Explain your logic.
