Iām so proud to live in the most diverse and culturally rich part of the country!! I love the Bitter Southerner for centering and celebrating the culture and thought of the South while openly challenging the systems that oppress that culture and scholarship. Killer photography, print style and editing all really helps too.

The Bitter Southerner exists to explore, from every possible angle, the duality of the Southern thing. A beacon and a bellweather. Based in Athens, GA. Literature, photography, art, music. Make more biscuits, get into good trouble.

i have been on pi.fyi for several months now and I am aware of the NY-adjacency of the app however seen lots of Texans on here and it's making me consider cultural merit of locations further south for example, the Southwestern US
I have been working on a zine/publication/site for a while about the American Southwest and am actively looking for contributors if you feel inclined! if you've lived/worked in TX, AZ, NM, CO, UT, NV, OK and are an artist/maker/writer I would love to interview you or have you contribute a piece of art/writing/opinions!!
I often hear so many conversations guided by misconceptions about the desolation and backwardness of these regions and would love to explore the cultural contributions of the places! maybe pi.fyi will be of some help

So Iāve been debating which is more annoying: including this pretentious literary magazine which I authentically love OR excluding it and going with a more ārelatableā choice. Performative relatability is my favorite thing to make fun of in my videos so I opted for the former! Iāve loved it since reading this piece (The Unravlers) by the amazing Stephanie Danler. Itās impossible to love the Paris Review without getting shit on for it though. My friend Rebecca saw it peeking out of my purse when we were getting drinks recently and accused me of planting it. My other friend, Michael, accused me of only liking it because it contains the word āParisā which aids in my quest to appear chic and not from Idaho (which I am). And I said, āMichael, thatās absolutely ridiculous and also correct.ā

I admittedly have a lot of pet peeves, but leading the pack is online recipes of any stripe. Food blog, bon apetit post, tiktok captionā¦they're all a nightmare, and I hate them. I āØhateāØ them!!! Who wants to click out of a half dozen pop up ads with messy hands and stuff going on the stove? Who is that experience for?? Especially when nearly every recipe you could ever hope to need or imagine already exists in libraries and thrift stores (both of which offer both cookbooks and food magazines!).
that being saidā¦ Iām not above referencing Smitten Kitchen or Sallyās or Modern Proper. But iāve taken to physically writing down those recipes ahead of time, and itās amazing how much it improves the cooking/baking experience both in terms of easy reference and also in the way it helps me mentally think through the process.
I recommend physical recipes!!!

every once in a while I like to go rogue at the grocery store just to remind myself that I am an adult with free will. Yesterday I did this at my neighborhood Piggly Wiggly and ended up copping some garlic bread from the freezer aisle. Itās soooo impractical (I live by myself and these are really not meant to be consumed a slice at a time) and is a crazy expensive way to make a very cheap snack but DAMN is it good. I Recommend This Item š

one thing about me is I am NOT a morning person. Decided to mitigate that my introducing something into my morning that I look forward to every day: bringing my coffee into bed with a book (a PI.FYI book club read that Iām about 2 months behind on atm) and starting my day with a little quiet, daylit moment.
