A message from the Editor
If you’ve got some time to spare and are open to listening to some random guy’s
thoughts on the internet, then maybe this is for you. If you end up reading and liking this, well then I would stay tuned because we’re just getting started. I hope you enjoy this first issue and kindly allow me to end this rant with a few parting words I’ve been dying to say for the better part of two decades; We’re in the boredom-killing business!

The veiled world of curios collecting
I used to collect everything. If I found myself with two objects of the same nature, I would find myself wanting more of them.
