- Reposted by Lisa Jenkins She/HerA few months ago, ICE hired me I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!" My latest for Slate

- What a Christmas present! I have wanted this print of Marilyn Monroe by the incredible Dameon Priestly (look at Instagram account) for such a long time.... It is even more beautiful close up. There is a great frame shop on the Hackney Road where I can do this justice. Just made my Christmas 🎄 💜💜💜

- I am only going to post this one more time. We are trying desperately to obtain the funds for my brother's Uni fees in The Philippines (story on the page) I hate doing this, but I want him to have the best life he can.

- Reposted by Lisa Jenkins She/HerSlightly tired of white American women in my comments telling me I don’t understand what real danger is because I don’t live in America. First time a gun was held to my face I was two years old. I have a very clear and present understanding of danger. I am vocal precisely because of it.

- Watched 'Call Me By Your Name' again last night, and cried my eyes out...again. Chalamet really was incredible. Ooooof that last scene. The whole film encapsulated the confusion, passion and agony of a lost first love. I just really hope they find a replacement for Oliver and the sequel is made....
