  • I know this isn’t that important in the grand scheme of things, but I will always be confused on what to put for myself. My family comes from Central America (I have dual citizenship), so I should pick Hispanic, right? But my family is also white Hispanic, my cousin’s have a range of blonde and red hair, light eyes. I also have some Asian Hispanics in my family.

    Hispanic really isn’t a race and it feels like I’m not supposed to pick it on the census because I don’t have the right skin color.

    Whereas someone who does look Hispanic the way people think of, but maybe their family hasn’t lived there for generations, they get to be considered more Hispanic than me. It’s just confusing.







  • I just discovered Ground News. It’s interesting because they rate news articles from sources based on their biases and factuality.

    So for example they will post a headline and list all the news sources reporting on it and rate how left or right leaning it is overall, plus they seem to do a good job with rating how factual it is. I’ve found it helpful and what I was craving from the news.
