Elsesser is joined by model Rayan Mazuel in select images of a larger cast not published — but shared on IG w/no names. After reviewing everyone’s IGs, AOC is clueless as to specifics and apologizes to models not identified or images shared.

You weren’t deliberated edited away by us; only after running your images through Google AI images and being directed back yet again to the same IGs that shared your images but not your names, did AOC give up.

Paloma’s habit of keeping her ‘happy list’ is just one reveal in her interview, along with her pursuit of poetry.

"For me, writing is a deeply personal, almost sacred process. There is something about cleansing. This is how I process my emotions.
