Sweetly seductive sugar apple! By all measures I should hate this fruit like soursop because it’s also very sweet and creamy, but there’s just something about sugar apples that is so uniquely delicious, I could never find hate in my heart for them 💗
Sweet N’ Sassy Soursop!! I actually really hate soursop, Idk it’s too sweet and milky for my tastes but I absolutely love the way they smell 👃🏾Like I’m obsessed with anything soursop-scented, essential oils, candles, perfumes anything 😍
Tiny yet potent gooseberry! I love the absolute fuckkk outta this fruit and if you’ve never had it, it tastes like if a warhead and a Granny Smith apple had a beautiful, little baby, just crisp and sour AF. When I was little, my dad would bring me bags of them from my great-uncle’s house, and I’d plow through them in one sitting like a little glutton 😅 They also make the best jam everrr and I always try my best to get some when I’m home in St. Lucia.
love changes you!
Starting a new series honouring some of the many delicious (& not so delicious but still lovely) fruits I grew up enjoying as a child in St Lucia. Starting off with the sweet & iconic plantain, a symbol of flavour & joy across the black diaspora ✨
Sharing this list of resources for aid for Cuba. I gotta say US Imperialism is really testing my patience more than usual nowadays and I am deeply infuriated but try to redirect that energy towards those who need it.

this is unironically how I push myself to do everything I dread
Can’t go a day without seething in rage about how “Woke” was coined to discuss the pervasive nature of antiblack racism throughout all societies and got so fucking mangled by the white masses across all political spectrums that it practically doesn’t mean anything anymore. It’s almost a joke of itself.
During the height of the Ferguson protests, you’d see posts about how the system is designed to oppress the Black community and being unaware of how it operates is akin to being asleep, so you must stay Woke. (Woke as a term in the Black community actually has a long standing history but we’ll focus on this period of time for now). You have to keep your eyes open to the truth, that’s what it was about.
And now it’s used to discuss whether or not it’s woke for a brunette to wear jeans, or if using your turn signal is woke. It honestly makes me want to puke
“…because now society’s collective mind has been reprogrammed to think that people that suffer from chronic illness or disability, their narrative story should follow that of a 1980’s sports movie montage, wherein you receive your diagnosis, you go through a brief period of depression, you have some inspiring conversations with friends and family, and then you cowboy up. You write that novel, you go to college and get your advanced degree, you run a marathon. Whatever it is, there is a definite thread that you are expected to follow because we see so many of these inspiring, overcoming-at-all-odds stories, when in fact they are extra-ordinary achievements. They are not the normal, and should not be used as a baseline to judge all chronically ill people against. It’s completely unfair and unrealistic. For so many people that suffer from things like fibromyalgia, and chron’s, and ulcerative colitis, their Rocky Balboa moment for the day might be finding the strength to just take a shower, to stand in their own kitchen and fix themselves something to eat before they have to crawl back to bed because just that much effort is too painful or too exhausting for them. And yet our society looks down on those people now, we judge them as somehow lacking because they’re not rising up to achieve all these great things. We have completely unrealistic expectations of them thanks to too many inspiring stories. So now we look at them and judge them as somehow inferior, somehow weaker. They don’t want it enough.They’re not trying hard enough to just be better.”
