The hallmarks of the hipster era: people were finding ways to 1. Spend time together IRL 2. Participate in aesthetic distinction 3. Innovate while re-energizing traditions The decline of the hipster era is a loss. Craft is the antidote to slop.

“So, you were getting insider information and keeping a separate set of books.” “Among other things, Dave.” “And you demanded repayment for your share and wrote a fake invoice for consulting.” “That was my $5.3 million.” “Well, the borrower is servant to the lender.”
