Other Day Will Start on March 14th

The beginning of something I'll try for a few months.

Hello everyone,

I do not like newsletters. It is weird to pay someone to send you an email. But this is where the people are, so here I am, one of many people.

Other Day will be a weekly publication. I have at least two months ready. Maybe more if I drop my standards. That’s my promise to you, the reader: I will have some indeterminate standards.

A preview of topics I’ll cover here:

• My book, The City Authentic, which comes out April 25, 2023. Please preorder it.

• How economic development is like a cargo cult

• Eerie nostalgia

• The colonial forts in present-day Ghana where people were sold into slavery

• HOAs

• The desire to be recognized as a full human

• A book review of Mal Harris’s Palo Alto, probably.

Okay that’s it thank you.
