True Crime Tuesday: Richard Speck

So not only do I credit Krystin as the person who introduced me to my favourite podcast, My Favorite Murder, but now I’m also taking inspiration from her True Crime Tuesday posts by posting some of my own favourite true crime stories.

Excellent diverse films & TV shows

Today I wanted to bring you a post about diversity. I haven't done much about this on my blog, but it is something I feel strongly about. Film and TV shows are gradually becoming more diverse, but it's still a whitewashed, cis and straight mess in my opinion. Below, I've named 4 diverse films / …
