To Be Titled

Striving to be a good dad, a good husband, a good son/brother, a good political scientist, a good photographer, a good cook and a good homo universalis.

Dan Benjamin started this new website. It is a good concept and I like the style, but the content is disappointing. I’m not sure who the target audience is—it might be roughly the same as that of Cookie magazine.

Cases in point: Hand-crank locomotive for $4,100. Anonymous Nakashima-inspired chair for $550. I love my son and would like him to have fun and have a good place to sit, but I’m never paying those prices. The fact that Benjamin sought advice from the founder of Uncrate probably contributed to this.
