We're coming up on the most wonderful time of year, everyone. The holidays will certainly be looking a bit different for everyone this year, but that doesn't mean that you can't get into the holiday spirit and enjoy all of the wonderful things that Christmas has to offer. This year I've been listening to Christmas music more than years prior, probably in an attempt to escape the stress of finals if I'm being completely honest. But in addition to listening to the old reliable holiday Spotify playlists and designated radio stations, I've been on a mission to find the best Christmas albums fit for any mood I may find myself in. Here are a few of my favorites that never fail to get me into the holiday spirit.

Christmas - Michael Bublé

I'm sure we can all agree that this album is one of the best out there. With so many classic all-time favorites on the tracklist, Michael Bublé truly serenades us and brings the holiday spirit with every song.

7 Ways to Make Your Language More Transgender and Nonbinary Inclusive

With more people becoming aware of transgender and non-binary people, there have been a lot of questions circulating online and elsewhere about how to be more inclusive. Language is very important in making a space safer for trans and non-binary individuals. With language, there is an established and built-in measure of whether a place could be safe or unsafe.
