One of my professors was like “hurry someone find Alex!” Bc i didn’t open the practice quizzes and missed one assignment meanwhile i got the due date mixed up 😫 but girl I’m alive!!! Also very excited that my second assignment analyzing the influences of my assigned artist/painting got a 98/100~
I keep hoping ill wake up to a “it happened” text and everyday im disappointed 😭

Yk why we love Asian cuisine? Cause rice is good as SHIT. They know what they’re doing man. Fried rice, brown rice, white rice.

Almost nothing is black or white anymore. Relationships, friendships, jobs, nothing. You have to be willing to give everything nuance and grace now. Nothing is one size fit all anymore.
Oh you and him are hilarious let me add both of these to my rolodex 😂

Not voting for Kamala is your right. But saying both candidates were the same is a lie and everyone knows its a lie.

I can’t comprehend as a Black woman supporting anyone who’s stance is basically fuck Black people

We could have had a happy, intelligent, beautiful leader but we got the people declaring war on American citizens. Sigh
And honestly worrying more about how not to get on a mean persons bad side is more exhausting than just being on their bad side. I’d rather be on their bad side living life than be on their good side constantly walking on egg shells around them.
I just knew the minute we’d stop being friends I was next and at first that made me nervous and so I felt like I should try and stay in their good graces but after a while I just realized they were just a mean person.
Thinking about how someone I used to know used to take pictures from ppl they didn’t like edit them “ugly” and used them as reaction memes in group chats. Or just take clips from ppls videos we knew and use them as reactions with the whole point being that the person looked stupid….oof
I probably also should have told my professors that this was happening and ask for patience and grace while my brain literally rewires itself BUT I didn’t do that so here we are
Maybe starting new anxiety meds at the beginning of this semester was a horrible idea 😭 but I have chosen to figure this out because I like feeling productive and not riddled with anxiety while doing basic tasks.

Kamala Harris reacts to ‘Jimmy Kimmel Live!’ being pulled off the air:

“This administration is attacking critics and using fear as a weapon to silence anyone who would speak out. Media corporations — from television networks to newspapers — are capitulating to these threats.”

i also say texas enchiladas when i mean tex-mex bc it’s chicken and cream cheese enchiladas and the best thing i’ve ever made 😂
maybe i should post more about cooking bc i have a homemade texas enchiladas recipe that might be one of the reasons my husband proposed lolol
that’s sounds so good 😭 we got a grilling/baking rack that i use for bacon that i might need to use for salmon after seeing this lol
i honestly haven’t either but i had some peaches and apples lying around from our grocery trip and was like “hm…why not” it was so good so think i’ll be doing that again in the future. After some tweaks though bc it felt almost like a pie/tart filling instead of a dipping sauce 😅
the apple made it more like a pie filling but i was just throwing stuff together. OH and i added cardamom and a little nutmeg bc it felt like fall when i woke up that morning lolol.
for the dipping sauce i boiled a peach, cut it up, and let it simmer with some sugar, cinnamon, chilli powder. Emulsified it and added some apple that i blended up and let simmer until super thick. Honestly going to redo the sauce without the apple but might use that same combo for a tart filling
so anyways i made homemade double fried chicken tenders last night with a side of a homemade peach dipping sauce and fries. Tonight is kimchi jigae some scallion pancakes and fresh kimchi. Still debating on what’s tomorrow.
it is lol and the tells are there but i don't even want to point them out bc it's how ppl learn to better "aid" the slop
