Locus solus — a solitary place
Multiple voices. Each on its own ground.
Locus Solus Media builds and runs independent brands — each with a sharp point of view, its own audience, and nothing watered down to fit the others.
We don’t build one voice that talks to everyone. We build distinct ones that mean something to someone.
Every brand in our portfolio has a defined beat, a defined tone, and a defined audience. Satire stays sharp. Food stays curious. Tech humor stays in the trenches. Criticism takes its time.
Behind them, one operation handles the rest — strategy, production, publishing, and growth across every platform the brands live on — so each voice can stay exactly what it is.
Our Brands
Independent by design. Built to stand alone.
01
Angry Pixies
IT & sysadmin humor
For everyone who’s ever been told to turn it off and on again — and everyone who’s had to say it.
02
Matter of Taste
World food & technique
Food from everywhere, cooked with curiosity — the dishes, the methods, and the places they come from.
03
Guillotine Diet
Political satire
Satire with the edge left on. Aimed up, never down, and unapologetic about which side it’s on.
04
The Silent Man
Long-form cultural criticism
Slow, stoic, and deliberate. Culture examined from a distance, in essays that take the time the subject deserves.
