I love groceries
1) Red wine is 100x better when refrigerated and full of clementine slices
2) The rest of the red wine is going into a steak sauce and BBQ sauce. So excited.
3) Pomegranate cupcakes from scratch tomorrow, no recipe just randomness!
4) Groceries to get tomorrow:
- Avocado. Because I can’t live without it.
I literally just told Paul that if he ever plans on proposing to me, he should put the ring in an avocado.
I couldn’t say no. - Peppers.
- Tortillas.
- Pomegranate.

Things we should internalize about racism:
- We can be “nice,” “smart,” “compassionate,” “caring” and racist at the same time. None of these are mutually exclusive.
- It doesn’t matter if we didn’t mean to be racist. Intentions don’t matter. Actions & consequences do.
- Just because you “don’t hate people of color” doesn’t mean you’re not racist. Racism is subtle, sub-conscious,
and ingrained into every fiber of our being.- Racism is about social domination by whites. Isolated incidents are only relevant if they relate to greater social truths.
- Having friendly/romantic relationships with people color does not make us exempt from being racist.
- We don’t live in a vacuum. Everything we do relates to society as a whole.
- Prejudice and racism are not the same thing. Only white people can be racist.
- Just because we’re queer, non-christian, whatever you can still be racist.
- People of color have more experience with racism than us in the West and regions dominated by the West. Always.
- It’s not about how we feel. It is not about us.
