Admittedly Vanity Fair has devolved into irrelevant celebrity sycophancy these days, but Andrew Zucker's faux-guileless piece on the Flock founders is particularly pathetic. If that wasn't paid placement, it might as well have been. Zucker is a featherweight, but he and VF destroying their wafer thin veneer of credibility over Langley and Todd is a head-scratcher, unless a sliver of that 8.5B valuation was somehow involved.

And really I'm fine with it. The golden days of Gold are behind us, at least for now, and though I tried to find 80 items in this review period I could only get to 52. Not interested in creating more landfill just to keep my status, as that's about the only way to do it (unless I owned an auto shop or a cupcake bakery).

99% review ratio, excellent insightfulness score, 50% media but nothing to order. Hard to believe that just a year ago, I furnished several starter homes for loved ones and had an ETV of over 20K. It's a little sad actually, this end of an era, but my home has more breathing room now and with Vine losing its thrill, I have more breathing room too.
