I love ikea. In the 90s and naughts it was a symbol of progress and its products complemented the sheik style that was so popular at the time. And it was commonly said to be cheap, and contributed to a new style of ephemeral living that was the precursor to modern tech nomadism and living by wire so to speak. Fresh euro-style industrialized in American fashion. But recently IKEA hasn’t seemed very cheap to me. And the throwing away of the olde ways has now progressed to a point where AGI can no longer be written off completely and with that comes the feeling that we may soon have thrown away too much.
