Allie and Sam are two moms. Mommy and Other Mommy. One carried the couple's twin boys, who are genetically related to the other-a cute little story of teamwork with a happy ending. But it was so much more than that. When they decided to grow their family, they naively went into things thinking they'd have a baby nine months later. Easy. Their conception journey began with nothing but hope. Planning pregnancy announcements. Picking names. (Picking sperm!) Soon, that turned into the harsh realization that it would take several years, thousands of dollars, and so much heartbreak to even get close to a baby. As a same-sex couple, Allie and Sam faced barriers from day one. If it wasn't constant heteronormativity, it was a couple of thousand dollars in the trash, next to another negative pregnancy test-just to rub it in a little more. It was jealousy of friends who were on baby one, then baby two, before they could even get in for another try at the fertility clinic. Who had sperm readily available at home. Who had babies for free. It took three years, three IUIs, one home insemination, one round of IVF, two losses, four embryo transfers, $50,000, and ultimately, a whole lot of teamwork. And now they get to watch their twins grow and learn, as Mommy and Other Mommy. With two moms, their family looks a little different to a lot of people. That's why it's important to share Sam and Allie's journey: to help normalize all types of families, and to hopefully make people think twice before they ask Who's the mom?

17-year-old Lexi Carvalho is a small-town girl who is forcibly removed from the only life she has ever known. She wakes up to discover that she has been living in a simulation of Earth as it was in the early 21st century. Earth was destroyed centuries ago, and what's left of humanity lives in a nearby space station. Over 700,000 people, known as "Iron Dreamers" live within the simulation, unaware of the true reality. The simulation exists because the future has many problems, and what's left of humanity does not have the computing power or innovation to solve them all. People kept in suspension consume less food, space and oxygen. Lexi is recruited to capture an unknown figure who is sabotaging the simulation and putting all of humanity at risk. But why are they trying to destroy the simulation if it's been working for centuries? And why was Lexi woken from it?
Commercial photography is a coveted, prestigious, elusive industry. It’s the definition of gatekept. Many photographers have the talent. They’ve been to school, taken courses, and honed their skills.

There are rules and information they don’t have access to. In short, they can shoot beautiful pictures but not book the dream clients they want.Eventually, they come to believe that commercial photography isn’t a possibility for them. They stay in their comfort zone, playing it safe, and never chase their dreams of making it in the big leagues. Those dreams die on the vine, not for a lack of skill, but because this opaque industry is tough to break into.The road to that dream is a long one paved with hustle, hard work, and rejection.
