Readymade
Earlier this month, at the Maker Faire, one of the guys from ReadyMade asked me why I didn’t re-up my subscription when I told him I used to subscribe. I half truthfully told him that I just couldn’t afford it since we bought our townhouse. but, the real reason why I didn’t resubscribe is because I got the feeling that you could count the number of people of color that appear in Readymade for the past 6 months on one hand. Paid advertisements don’t count. Not that they’re obligated to represent a diverse cross section of our society, it just got really creepy… every month, a magazine of somewhat-cool ideas and lots of skinny white people. That and the non-stop “renew now!” junk mail I got from them contributed to why I did not renew my subscription.
