“I didn’t really think it was gonna work, so in some ways it’s what I expected. But I was hoping it was gonna work, so I am also disappointed.”

Claire Saffitz really couldn’t have said it better

i know everyone loved claire saffitz like five years ago but the more i rewatch the more i realize… she would be the absolute WORST coworker

I think the biggest thing coming out of the bon appetit/conde naste situation is; Celebrities cannot be your safe space. They will disappoint you, they will make mistakes. some will be racist and homophobic on a major scale and not apologize. Your safe space cannot be in a person that you share a parasocial relationship with because there is every possibility that the persona they share with the world is not the whole picture. You will eventually be disappointed by those you give your safety to when they have no way of knowing what responsibility you've given them. Your safety does not exist in the hands of online celebrities.

I love seeing people draw Jon with grey streaks in his hair but it always makes me think of Claire Saffitz from Gourmet Makes

Jon being a very classy and stressed chef trying to make snack food gourmet is very funny to me

These are redraws of some screenshots from the gushers episode of Gourmet Makes: https://youtu.be/fEMxFSjmo5Q

She also has her own, very good youtube channel now.

The right amount of love for potatoes.

A big shout out to the test kitchen staffers for all banding together striking to protect and uplift their coworkers who were being hurt by Condé Nast’s racism

But the biggest shoutout of all to Sohla, who was willing to put her own job, career, and reputation on the line alone without guarantee of any back up to ask for the resignation of the man in charge of the kitchen. She deserves a lot more recognition than she’s getting for spearheading this, and unfortunately all I see are people cheering on her white coworkers for standing in solidarity with her, rather than her for her own actions.

Make no mistake, everyone participating in the strike deserves recognition, but in a battle for fair and even treatment regardless of race, we must not forget the woman of color who started this whole thing in favor of her white coworkers. Much love and respect to Sohla.
