Since when did affording basic needs feel like sorcery?
Gas. Rent. Groceries. Education. Healthcare.
These aren’t luxuries—they’re the basic necessities we need to survive. Yet millions of people are working hard and still struggling to afford them.
A livable life shouldn’t feel impossible because the government is prioritizing profit over people and investing in separating and dismantling communities instead of building them.

Dating while undocumented is something people don’t talk about enough.
Because you’re not just navigating love — you’re navigating uncertainty too.
People talk about relationships like everyone has the same sense of stability, freedom, safety, and future. But being undocumented can affect every part of that. Your ability to work. To travel. To feel safe. To imagine a future. Even how much you allow yourself to emotionally open up.
There’s fear in wondering how someone will react to your status. Will they understand? Will their family accept you? Will they see a future with you? A lot of undocumented people grow up in survival mode, so sometimes softness, vulnerability, and love can feel unfamiliar or even unsafe.
Some people struggle to commit not because they don’t care, but because instability has always been part of their reality. When your life feels uncertain, bringing someone into that uncertainty can feel heavy.
But being undocumented does not make anyone less deserving of love, care, softness, safety, or joy.
Undocumented people deserve relationships where they are fully seen beyond their status. We deserve to dream, to love openly, and to build futures with dignity too. 🫶🏽

🚨 Today, the Supreme ruled 6-3 to uphold birthright citizenship, a core part of the 14th Amendment.
Since 1898 when the Supreme Court first heard the case, birthright citizenship has been the clear law of the land: if you’re born here, you’re a U.S. citizen. But because of ongoing efforts to destabilize the United States and install authoritarianism, there are continual attacks on the rights and protections that uphold our society.
Birthright citizenship, TPS, asylum, voting rights, transgender q***r rights, and reproductive rights are all interconnected: they are about the right for every person to have agency over their lives, be treated with dignity and respect, and be protected by basic rights.
Today’s ruling is the right one, and it’s clear that attacks will keep coming. We must be vigilant, we must act in solidarity, and we must pass a pathway to citizenship for ALL. Get involved with us today!
🫶🏽 a HUGE shoutout to Asian Law Caucus, ACLU, ACLU of New Hampshire, ACLU of Maine, ACLU of Massachusetts, Legal Defense Fund, and Democracy Defenders Fund for your leadership in fighting for our rights. ✊🏼
