Your support helps us to tell the story
From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.
At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.
The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum. And unlike many other quality news outlets, we choose not to lock Americans out of our reporting and analysis with paywalls. We believe quality journalism should be available to everyone, paid for by those who can afford it.
Your support makes all the difference.From dating apps to celebrity relationships, ghosting to benching; The Independent digs deep into the murky waters of modern love in our weekly podcast, hosted by Assistant Lifestyle Editor Rachel Hosie and Lifestyle Writer Olivia Petter.
Although being single at Christmas can be a lot of fun, it also inevitably leads to the dreaded inquisition from family members who are nosy about your love life (or lack thereof).
This week, we share our experiences of mothers who just don't understand us and having to sleep in children's race car beds when we go home for Christmas.
We also discuss 'Marleying,' a newly-identified seasonal dating trend that sees people reaching out to their exes over the festive period. If you haven't done it, it's probably happened to you.
Merry Christmas from Millennial Love!
