The Mate Gallery owners Matt Albiani and Ron Brand announce they are now carrying the American West-inspired Ralph Lauren RRL line, affectionately known as Double RL. The line was launched last week in an invite-only opening event that caused a scene in the Montecito Country Mart parking lot in front of the store – not just because of the melee of guests; two vintage jeeps filled with leather goods by event partner Homer also caused a stir.

Thank you for writing this brilliant piece, Robert Bernstein. It speaks to something in the current zeitgeist (malaise?) of our times. It’s not merely limited to printer software. Best word I’ve never heard of, before seeing it in your piece. It made my day, and I’m still laughing at how it can apply to almost everything. Can we conjugate that to the verb “to enshittify?”Sincerely, LeeAnn MorganWhere’s the Rain?
