In honor of Labor Day, a holiday that celebrates the achievements of the Labor Movement in the United States, I'm going to take today entirely off from publishing and...oops.
Well, since I'm here anyway, I will I take a moment to comment on how deeply ironic it is that Burning Man, which relies on the volunteer labor of tens of thousands to make a bunch of a money for a tiny cadre of people on its board, is held over Labor Day weekend.
To my friends who are coming off the playa today: may its magic have outweighed its contradictions.
