Mood, sans the resignation. Perhaps that will come later? The surgent American crypto/xto-‘ascism is a twelve-step program of sorts. “Hello my name is ______ and I’m addicted to Literacy, the Scientific Method, Medicare For All, and Equal Rights.”

Love this shed as an expression of economical Maritime building traditions: the impulse to suppress the articulation of massing in favour of the weathertight surface, and to group openings together into a single interruption of that skin. Absolutely fucking perfect. Neils Harbour, Nova Scotia

An undergrad at MIT has used synchrotron tomography and AI to decipher a scroll excavated at Herculaneum. What she has found is an extended fragment of a previously unknown and notably bawdy Homeric work entitled Rosie Fingered Dawn. “This is the first instance of a long-anticipated Ancient Greek po

Feeling, at some level, that I don’t deserve a dog. Even though the sun has in fact come up again. (“No no you’re confused…the horizon is setting…”) Heads, I adopt a pup. Tails I adopt a therapist.

Continuing Ed for architects is notoriously agonizing, but this last session OMfG. Presenter was everything plastic sales demands an individual be: willfully ignorant, evasive, and unashamed. I had the urge to self-harm so I ate carbs.

Hypothesis: when Santorini blew like Krakatoa, the waves harmlessly spared people out on boats but killed a percentage of their families living along the shore.

Stanley Marcus refused to sell milk chocolate at Neiman Marcus because he thought it to be a yokel taste. Sad to say, I can be every bit as disagreeably judgmental about color in architecture. Blue, for instance, should be used sparingly—if at all—on the exteriors of houses. I forbid it.

Hochul has the power, if not perhaps the strength. If she can’t find the strength, she’ll find she’s lost the power. (This was our lesson if not hers.)
