15 People Shared Beautiful Photos Of Their Interracial Relationships For Loving Day, And I’m Sobbing
Instagram/@need4lspeed

In 1967, the Supreme Court overruled a state-level decision to ban interracial marriage, and it was one of the best days for equality ever. The government finally went hands off trying to control whether or not people of other races could love one another because spoiler alert: they can.

For me, personally, I have dated guys who are black, and to think that would have been breaking the law a little over 50 years ago blows my mind. Someone's skin color doesn't dictate who they can or cannot love, and that's something I'm so glad I have the right to in today's day and age.

In honor of this beautiful day, here are 15 interracial couples sharing stories and pictures of their love, and I'm going to let the tweets do the talking.

(Remember, though, while we have come a long way from interracial relationships being illegal, we still have a long way to go. @ everyone who stares at interracial couples, just stop!)

10. This couple that has built a beautiful and wonderful family together

11. This girl who just hit everything spot on

12. This one that celebrated the beautiful love of her parents

13. This girl who made me tear up

14. This couple just radiating happiness

15. And this one, who put it best: thanks to those who paved the way for this

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.

Epic Creation Myths: Norse Origins Unveiled

What happened in the beginning, and how the heavens were set in motion.

The Norse Creation Myth

Now, I have the everlasting joy of explaining the Norse creation myth. To be honest, it can be a bit kooky, so talking about it is always fun. The entire cosmos is included in this creation myth, not just the earth but the sun and the moon as well. This will be a short retelling, a summary of the creation myth, somewhat like I did with Hermod's ride to Hel.
