I travelled the world in search of LGBTQ couples of color.
The experience changed my life, but I did it because I think their stories can change your life too.
In honor of Black History Month, I'm proud to announce that my book, Queer Love in Color, is available for preorder.

🚨 Scooplet: @PalantirTech, a data firm with $145M in ICE contracts, was promoted as a "top supporter" at the Congressional Black Caucus Foundation's annual legislative conference in Washington, D.C. last week, according to photos reviewed by HuffPost and a statement from the company.
This comes after @CHCI, the nonprofit aligned with the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, publicly canceled Palantir's sponsorship and returned a donation after facing backlash.

Making art is work. I know everyone hates to hear this, but it's work. It takes effort and skill, and it's not always fun. It has benefits vs other work, but also costs. It is very likely that if you actually pursued art, you would not see it as a cut-and-dry privilege

"my daughter’s sacrifice could not transform a system that those who hold the most power refuse to change... Black children in New York’s schools, and this nation’s, are as segregated now as they were a decade ago, two decades ago, three. And in profound ways, we’ve actually moved backward..." nytimes.com/2026/09/20/magaz…

Rachel Dolezal is one of the most high agency people to have ever lived. The ultimate individual. Someone Ayn Rand would have come up with in the midst of amphetamine induced mania had she been a better writer
this kind of video typography is going to be a hallmark of gen Alpha parodying zoomers in a few years
