Hey, what is all this?

Oh, hello there! We wanted to take a second to tell you, valued first-time visitor, about this place where you've landed.

It was birthed from the following thoughts: What if there were a website that zippily surveyed a wealth of resonant, weird, important, frightening, amusing bits of news and ideas? And what if it weren't totally clogged with reality show linkbait?

It would be a website which wasn't so invested in giving you the "counterintuitive take" that it actually stopped making sense. Dream further: What if it were run by people who actually didn't care about the way we all allegedly live now? This is our little dream. And it begins here, in an extremely bare form. It might even grow. (Would you perhaps like to invest?)

So welcome. And please drop us a line anytime. All ideas and thoughts are not only welcomed, but ardently desired. With your help, we can make our other dream-the one of not having to work for anyone else-a reality. Also the dream of feeding our addictions. And/or cats. 0
