#34: The 2024 Consumpties

Death By Consumption 2024-2024 Considering today is conveniently the last day of the year, rather than a usual look at what I consumed all week (mostly wine and baked goods), I figured why not do a look back at the whole year? This was the first year of Death by

#33: A Week in Wales

Death By Consumption 12/17/24 - 12/23/24 It’s Christmas Eve! Did you know that? But I hope you’re not even reading this for another week or so — this is not a time for EMAILS. Honestly, I think they should forcibly shut Gmail down from now

#32: “Happy Christmas, mate!” - me all week

Death By Consumption 12/10/24 - 12/16/24 I am writing this from a Welsh pub, so this might be an absolute mess. We’ll see! Honestly, I can’t believe I’m getting anything out at all. I was in London for most of the week for

#31: Who's scarier: Tom Ripley or Andy Cohen?

Death By Consumption 12/3/24 - 12/9/24 Does anyone have any gift ideas? I'm struggling to think of or purchase anything this year, and with only two weeks left until Christmas, I should be buying gifts for people, but instead I'm spending my

#30: I saw the big famous movies (not you, Moana)

Death By Consumption 11/26/24 - 12/2/24 Just my opinion, but I don't think Thanksgiving should be allowed to happen that late in November. You're eating turkey one minute, and suddenly it's December? No. I reject it. And then what'

#29: Holding space for giving thanks

Death By Consumption 11/19/24 - 11/25/24 Because of procrastination, I didn’t get tickets to see either of the sold-out huge movies over the weekend. Instead, I saw a movie everyone stopped talking about a couple weeks ago. You are witnessing a marketing and SEO genius

#28: In my documentary era

Death By Consumption 11/12/24 - 11/18/24 I lied last week — I keep learning the names of all the little freaks Trump is appointing. In my defense, this is all happening against my will! The media keeps pushing these people's faces into my various social

#27: WELL, that was fun, wasn't it?

Death By Consumption 11/5/24 - 11/11/24 Everyone have a good week? Anything notable happen? Honestly, I typed a bunch of stuff here, but what's left to be said that hasn't been said by 8,000 other people at this point? We'

#26: An actually fun election

Death By Consumption 10/29/24 - 11/4/24 The big day is here, like it or not. How are the vibes where you are? Terrible? I'm surprised to hear that! Are you stocking up on liquor, to survive the night? Guns, to survive whatever happens next?

#25: I went to the opera (please clap)

Death By Consumption 10/22/24 - 10/28/24 It has been brought to my attention by a dear friend that these openers have been very weather-focused, so in an attempt to course correct, I will not be discussing the weather today, which is fine because it’s been
