hello I have returned to my original form: complaining about the ways that late capitalism has ruined my favorite hobbies this time, it’s the enshittification of the grocery store

Top shortage creating devastating social and technological consequences

Love love love this @aemccarthy.bsky.social piece on how the joys of wandering the grocery aisles are slipping away www.weareravenous.com/grocery-stor...

Wow have I mentioned how wise and handsome Josh is

I totally overlooked Gastronauts on Dropout until now and it was a terrible mistake. Ravenous subscription already paying off.

Lord knows I spend my money on ridiculous things just cause they make me happy, but if it's really about liking theme parks they probably wouldn't specify Disney adult. Anyway if I spent all my money on a corp that is censoring gay and trans characters out of its movies I'd keep that to myself!

Wow did you know Boys Weekend, one of the BEST comics of the century, is available for purchase???? www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/702852...

I got to edit this incredible piece and it is such a fun, joyful read!

in 2016 I made a comic titled “Mr. Gotcha” that would become most viewed and circulated image I’d create. Now it is the subject of a book by @glennf.com examining its history in online discourse. That One Matt Bors comic is live on Kickstarter—back it here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/gle...

Ravenous is also proudly a home for dumb blogs. Here's me on the greatest food innovation of my lifetime: the cup that lets you drink soda and eat chicken tenders with one hand. www.weareravenous.com/sip-and-snac...

i’m absolutely not sorry to be filling your feeds recently - jaya is one of my favorite writers and every headline for ravenous so far could make me fall off a stool (positive).

This is my favorite dropout show, Jordan is a delight

"""""Spicy""""" is fine, but sexual isn't. """""Spicy""""" is marketable, sex is deviant. Art made for sexual gratification is not allowed, """""""spicy""""""" is apparently enjoyed completely asexually (and therefore, is okay).

‘Gastronauts’ understands that cooking shows aren’t dramas. They’re comedy. Host Jordan Myrick talks about how the series deconstructed the food competition.

holy shit niko

"Like all small, gay children, I discovered the Food Network, probably when I was in early elementary school. I loved Rachael Ray more than anything in the world. I would die for her." - @jordanmyr1ck.bsky.social

suddenly remembering i haven't plugged my newest in a while. i think everyone should buy and read the book SIMPLICITY which i'm just so tremendously proud of the further i get away from it

I interviewed @jordanmyr1ck.bsky.social about Gastronauts, the Walk Hard of cooking competition shows www.weareravenous.com/gastronauts-...

Who has a good book/author etc. on the history of credit cards?

I can't wait for The Pitt x Hantavirus cruise

They're calling Ravenous "incredibly worth subscribing to" and "full of fun and informative food writing"

every single day there's a new "see this is why i subscribe"

imagine owning a $5 mil apartment in the Village and believing that this *public park* is your personal backyard. you live in a city, dummy!!! fuck outta here

MOVE TO LONG ISLAND YOU DUMB BABIES

Or, why don't we have sausage rolls in the United States?

A walk in the park in the morning?? Seeing all the people and the flowers and the birds?????????

once again the answer to everything you’re mad at in a think piece is to subscribe to worker-owned media outlets, like: @flaminghydra.com @defector.com @weareravenous.com @aftermath.site @gourmetlives.bsky.social @404media.co

ICYMI, @weareravenous.com launched this week, and I went long on chef Telly Justice working with restaurants around the country to offer pay-what-you-can dining, showing how it's possible to be a for-profit restaurant and give away food for free. www.weareravenous.com/pay-what-you...

I ate really well in London, largely thanks to @raaleh.bsky.social, and wrote a bit about it! www.weareravenous.com/london-best-...

Ever since I first met Telly while working in Atlanta restaurants I knew she was destined for great things!

This was such a joy to see live, and you really need to listen to this absurd story of this mayor I may or may not be distantly related to

Got a great interview from @thecourtneyesmith.bsky.social with @paulaforbes.bsky.social and Evan LeRoy about their new school barbecue cookbook. There are so many beets?? Read it at @weareravenous.com www.weareravenous.com/new-school-b...

very excited for @weareravenous.com’s launch, and pieces like this are why!
