It was mostly a rough, unproductive year, but I published some fun stuff including three print cover stories (pictured), made my Jacobin print debut, and proofread issues of Bookforum and New York Review of Architecture

Shame about Matt Gaetz considering all the great stuff Stoller, Grim, and Jilani were convinced he was going to do!
