The Avarice Awards holds a mirror to the hollow glamour of The Game Awards, as workers continue to have their livelihoods upended by mass layoffs. We are speaking truth to the powers ruining the game industry with their greed!

The funny thing is. I love collard greens but my favorite part of making them is probably getting the potlikker afterwards.
I can use that in soups, other veggies dishes, or just drink it for a lil boost 😁
