On: The rise and fall of Latitude, an exclusive underground society (2016)

I wish there were more (co-ed) fraternal organizations without the cult aspects. You know — a nice house, a pretty flag, a space to hang out and talk about interesting things. There's a certain social niche that just doesn't get filled by jobs or single-purpose meetups. Reading about this startup feels me with a deep sort of longing, despite knowing that it's a corporate construct.

Wow do I ever know the feeling. The "of like minds and hearts" line from the Latitude story really got me.

It's been my daydream plan to fund/start/organize one for more than 10 years now.

I too want a tribe.

If you have any concrete ideas and reside in Europe, ideally the Northern area, send me an email!
