This Halloween I joined the @SwitchedOnPop crew + @Passionweiss for a music criticism panel at USC… …And used my “Frozen” costume to evangelize about Madonna’s seminal 1998 album, “Ray of Light”

A girls trip but we make like Rosalía and do the Camino de Santiago

If politicians were honest, they'd stop saying they fight for your health care when they're actually fighting for your health insurance provider. There's a huge difference.

If a girl can get a little mystical: 2025 is a 9 year, which represents a time for ending habits and completing cycles. The people you date in a 9 year may prompt a lesson you need to learn. Singles can have better luck in 2026 (1 year)… and more so in 2027 (2 year)!

My childhood was tough but I feel lucky to have grown up in a big Latino family where everyone was interdependent — learning how to take care of babies and elders taught me the value of family and communal living (It def made me a Selma James/Wages for Housework girlie though)

Latinas are ahead of any other racial/ethnic group in fertility rates (despite some decline) — and I think a huge factor is cultural norms. Older family members typically let new parents move into the family home OR they move in themselves temporarily to help with childcare.

I totally believe this. Especially given how many millennials and Gen Z are still living with their parents… how many of us are renting with roommates…

Yeah this piece absolutely nails it

“Desire, eroticism and enjoyment? Let’s keep those. An obsession with labels, public approval and pressure to pursue things we don’t actually want? These can remain in 2015.”

Watching this show as a kid was like taking a Valium. I loved it.

That said I am queer and friendly with most of my exes anyway 🤭

I will NOT be in Vegas for the Latin Grammys this year but I AM editing for @delosLAtimes so please be nice to my reporters this week!

It’s general strike time fr. Somebody who organize for a living let’s get it done

Get back in the garage!!

I made this lounge/electronica/“soft club” playlist a few years ago — but with new music by María Zardoya + Erika de Casier + Crushed I think it could use an an update 🏮 https://t.co/5E95OIm64Y

I really wanna DJ a “soft club” party where I play Moby, Groove Armada, Télépopmusik

You can’t build a sustainable fire with dynamite, you gotta feed it with gradual but focused attention. Passion is so vital (!) in a relationship but it should build with time.

I keep seeing infographics warning against love bombing but I’m Latina, it’s definitely not healthy but it was kind of the standard growing up — being “passionate” right off the bat
