Dear 2020. We miss the outdoors. We dream of outdoors. Even when outdoors, we imagine doorways that lead to more outdoors. Dear 2020, double 20 you, you sure have been more than double the trouble, and we can’t wait to leave you behind. Something new’s got to be right there, right over that threshold.
Watch us step over and never look back.
Welcome to issue 11, our first double issue. Take it away, double 1!
The Editors.
