I really love Remezcla. There are so many amazing blogs out there, but no one is really putting on for Latin artists and I really admire her for supporting Latin artists and keeping our culture alive.

That is until now - my baby daddy/life partner can not go with the flow. He has described the idea of intercourse during my menses as ‘gross’, ’disgusting’ and ‘yucky’.
As a living, breathing, bleeding, self identifying womxn I took immediate offense to this. How dare anyone put down a perfectly natural bodily function? Why is my vulva beautiful to you every other day of the month? Do you realize without this ‘yucky’ process you wouldn’t even be alive to fuck in the first place?!
There's so much I want to do, and I'm so committed to all of it- I act and perform comedy, I make visual art, I sing and dance, and I write, so it all depends on what pops first. In 5 years, I would love to be writing for a TV show like the Today Show or Full Frontal with Samantha Bee. I would also love to do SNL, but I would love to have my OWN sketch comedy show even more. Hopefully in 5 years I'll know how to animate, so I can merge my love of comedy and my love of drawing to have my own satirical cartoon. Also maybe kids. Or a pug. 2 pugs.

KRISHANTI - Can you Freaky Friday with a dog? I'm gonna say I'd swap bodies with my parents' puppy Margo, mostly because I want her to feel the joy of ordering a pizza and eating a whole slice, not just the piece of crust she gets. Also I think I could enjoy napping all day.

I'd say definitely my mannerisms and slang, the way I move and my mind frame. I've lived in numerous parts of the city. Chicago is about making moves and fast pace living. You have to have a certain mentality to survive; Be strong, have thick skin, street smart, and a certain focus.

Michael Jackson. I'd ask him how he continued to evolve as an artist. So often I feel like I'm plateauing and he continued to recreate himself over and over and got better each time. He's also a fucking fashion icon, so I'd like to ask him about how he continued serve all day.
Confused, I looked around at my surroundings to notice a whole village in a Mediterranean climate. I pulled out my phone, looked for wifi, went to google maps and zoomed out on my location. I was in Iran and with no way back to my family. What was I to do now? As if I were wandering in some kind of limbo amongst other strays like me, trying to find their way back.
