When is an estate sale not an estate sale? When I'm there having an existential crisis about death.

Back on my Snacket bullshit. This time not only did I get a comment in, but I got the Round 4 closing comment. Yes, I'd be happy to sign your print out of this comment.
Y'all, I have a Substack. It's called The Kitchen Sink and the Very First Post is about meat tins.
In fact, it's only Part I of meat tins. You never know there was so much to learn about tins full of meat.

#FolkloreThursday logo - F T in large black text with two triangle above and below it, each with a thistle inside. A green footer with #FolkloreThursday at the bottom in white text.
A day late, but ten years ago yesterday we hosted the first ever #FolkloreThursday over on Twitter! TEN YEARS people!!!! What a decade it's been - THANK YOU to everyone who has been with us over the years, and here's to keeping on putting the folk back into folklore!
This is the food change we need in the world.

"No more living to work for me, now I’m working just to stay alive."
And believe me when I say, I am so looking forward to getting back on my bullshit and being a nuisance on text-based social media.
I have so much freedom now! I can write whatever I want! Which is why I'm throwing one more substack into the void. Subscribe now and get access to literally nothing, I haven't published anything, but I'm super charming so you know it'll be good when I do

I've done it. I've officially received my MLA in Gastronomy from BU. There are things I've been proud of, but never like this.
I wasn't able to attend graduation, but my lovely friend provided me with a realistic representation of what it would look like if I did.
Happy pub day, An American Girl Anthology! Sharing a bit about the book process and my feelings about writing my first not-food book (and the food history that helped shape it) in my latest newsletter with fellow food scholar/co-author @emartin.bsky.social!
Damn, I’m on a roll this Snacket.
Yuuuusssss, also preorder this book because I wrote something with @kchysmith.bsky.social in it, and god we need this win.
Laaannnnaaaaaa I loooooooove uuuu
Got in the actual Snacket survey this time, fuck yeah.
An email in the iPhone email app with the subject line Snacket XI - Round 2. The quote says “why not just put cat food on here, Jesus.”
Always proud when my comments make it to the Snacket email.
Also TM TM TM historical malfeasance ™ copyright Esther Martin 2025 TM I came up with that term, now you have to cite me, TM
To complete my degree I will be writing about doll food, historical malfeasance, and probably nostalgia mostly to annoy @zolkover.me.
I’m excited to start the final leg of my journey, a directed study, which I enrolled in last spring and is also technically now an F because I also didn’t do it.
11 years strong!!!!!
I am excited to share, a full week later, that I turned in my last incomplete 10 years late for my 11-year-old two year part-time masters degree with BU Gastronomy.
I’d like to thank all my haters, primarily myself, who never thought I’d get here.
Me trying to set up Bluesky thinking I’d already joined with TheFoodlorist years ago: DAMMIT emartin is taken!!! Who took it UGH!!!
Me. It was me. I took it.
