The doggo has had so much fun in snow today morning that he’s exhausted himself out and now just wants to cuddle up and sleep!

Tips on how to be a good white neighbor: Dont let *What do you do to stay out of trouble on streets at night?* be your first question when your brown neighbor moves in. That was literally the first question my next door white retired man asked. Nice people. They even threw a party in the cul-de-sac for us. I just haven’t forgotten or forgiven him for asking me that. It just sets a bad tone and feels very condescending. Even if you didnt mean it. Its been 18 months almost we’ve moved in, but we measure our words very carefully with him and his wife, because a part of me just believes he’s a closet racist. By all accounts they have been very pleasant neighbors and never bother us, but they are also pokey in a way that makes me uncomfortable so I try to keep the niceties to a minimum. You dont bother us, I wont bother you and we are all very good!

Glad to see Better Call Saul not picking up a Emmy. Look it was a great show till season 3 and then steadily went downhill. The last season was a chore and there is no two ways about it. If anything it’s the first three seasons that deserved all the accolades! Also, Kieran Culkin is killing it – he was the breakout star of Succession in final season and it shows! I miss that show.

Today at Jamba Juice I asked the juicer to mix ginger with my purely carrot juice. She gave me look of what the fuck are you trying to do type.Now I am like wait do people not know ginger and carrot is a great combination?

There will always be some obscure law that benefits you in particular because of which you will define your political alliance. That is great and how it should be, under normal circumstances; but these are not normal times. You have to be able to put common decency, humanity and just general respect of greater good over anything else in today’s time. If you can’t and hide behind laws to justify your position, well I got news for you – you are as bad as Trump; don’t try to justify why your hands are tied and all, just admit it that you are a trumpkin. Don’t try to fool us, or yourselves.

I find it weird that _The Bear_ is nominated as a comedy in most award shows which is such a disservice to Only Murders In the Building because it’s such an award grabbing strategy. The Bear is not a comedy by any means! It’s a great show yes.

Started watching Killers of the flower moon. Have budgeted 3 nights to finish the movie so let’s see how I do!

Got my third clothing stuff from Patagonia and I am a fan. I like this company and I will support this company as and when I can afford their stuff!

> But it will take more than piecemeal public policy to change America’s almost pathological child neglect. At root, we must overthrow the persistent delusion of rugged individualism — the perverse American mythology that everyone must fend for themselves, no matter the cost. To raise children with the care and comfort they deserve, we must learn to think of ourselves in concert with others. We must, in short, nurture the ideal of community that America’s policies have worked to tear apart.

So well put. [Why America hates its children](https://apple.news/ASFWULrlzR6qFrTBaKXSCWQ)

Look I get it when white men get called out and how it must offend them, especially when they get called out for their politics. I hear ya. I identify as Hindu and part of majority in India too and trust me I used to get upset when the minorities called us Hindus out too. After all, “I am not like them”. It took a while to dawn on me that if “I am not like them” then I don’t need to be offended or worry about it. The people who are offended know exactly why they were offended. I hope white men who get offended realize that soon – if you are offended, maybe stop and rethink why. It’s hard but you’ll get there!
