friendly reminder that most of your favs came from persian stories, including rapunzel, romeo and juliet, and more
Replying to @PU7AMADRE @T4M4NNA
the story of rapunzel was actually taken from shahnameh, a persian epic; rapunzel was adapted from a woman called rudaba in the persian epic who was known for her super long hair

Nothing ruins my day quite like seeing content like this on my feed. White people, exploiting the colorism in the PH is not the flex you think it is. These beauty standards exist bc your ancestors brutally colonized & stole from our people. Stfu.

The wildfires in Canada are causing unsafe smoke throughout New Jersey. BCMA is holding an emergency distribution of protective masks for houseless people in Newark who have limited access to indoor protection. Please help raise funds for quality masks!

Air quality in New York City continues to worsen amid smoke from Canadian wildfires, ground stops issued at LaGuardia and Newark Airports. Do not go outside if you can avoid it. #smoke #AirQualityAlert #NYC #CanadianWildfires

Dangerous air continues in parts of the NE, as a thick plume of #smoke has moved into #NYC (looking like Mars) with vis as low as a 1/2 mile at Newark. With over 400 fires in western Canada and no significant rain forecast, expect this to continue daily BASED on wind direction. – at Marietta, GA

Today’s ceremony is designed to bolster unjustifiable inequitable royal power with a violent racist history, through appeals to religion, pomp and tradition. As a historian of coronation I will be watching and commenting, as a point of historical enquiry and with this in mind.

writing a fantasy book where the main female character is so unhinged and vengeful, has insane powers and doesn't limit them. she gives in to almost every moment she feels rage, or is upset about something and just goes feral and takes it out on everyone and everything

MAY is AAPI month! I realize that folks are getting lists, posts and panels ready to celebrate, so we* put together some graphics of newer books*** created by Pacific Islanders to help anyone searching for these types of stories. (🧵

As we prepare for DVpit, as an author and now agent, I just thought I'd share a little thread... I participated in two DVpits, got a number of agent and editor likes both times. The first time, I had a few full requests and an R&R, but no offers, so I edited substantially.
