Humans have always had a complicated relationship with weather. Ancient cultures prayed and made offerings to gods in hopes of receiving conditions conducive to growing crops. Adverse weather, then, was often interpreted as displeasure on behalf of those same beings—a punishment for failing to observe proper rituals. It doesn’t take a history scholar to understand this impulse. Weather, now as then, is both an enemy and ally. On one hand, it provides everything from the raw material for food—sunlight driving photosynthesis, wind the primary method of plants spreading their seeds—to …

Sometimes, writing about art and theater feels a lot like falling down the proverbial rabbit hole as I try to find the angle to write about wandering through a haunted-theater immersive experience, getting splashed in a Halloween horror show in the basement of a spaghetti emporium, sweating through a DIY D&D in a comic shop, savoring (har har!) Sweeney Todd’s enraged high notes, and trying to quiet my howling dog in a public house. I’ve found myself in some odd and awkward scenarios. To update the metaphor, writing this column is a lot like drunk-clicking through an endless algorithm o…

It all started years back, when NBA TV would offer a free preview for the first two weeks of the season. Snuggled in the corner of my living room, I would binge watch NBA basketball like your favorite Netflix series. But unlike your favorite shows, I didn’t need to watch the entire series to figure out the ending. You may need an entire season or more to see Tony Soprano die, Walter White blow up a cartel, or Jon stab Daenerys. All I needed was a dozen games to tell me all that I needed to know. I can’t predict mid-season trades, or who gets hurt, but after a dozen games I can t…

Veterans Day, observed annually on November 11, honors the service and sacrifice of military veterans in the United States. Its origins trace back to the end of World War I, which formally concluded with the Treaty of Versailles on June 28, 1919.
