I’m writing this from a rental property, on a hillside overlooking the northern reach of the Taconic Mountains. A key feature of this property is a small outbuilding, designed and built by the current owner as a quiet place for visitors to work.

Here’s a view from the desk: This rental property, in other words, includes a canonical example of one of my all-time favorite styles of…

I recently reported something that, as someone who desires social harmony, I was glad to see but, as someone who desires harmony, made me nervous. I reported that culture war in public schools had abated significantly in 2024.
