1 week ago | seattletimes.com | Conor Dougherty

Monte Anderson opened a broom closet in his kitchen and pointed to a door handle near a mop and a trash can. Somewhere on the other side lay one small solution to America’s affordable housing crisis.

2 months ago | businessandamerica.com | Conor Dougherty

“Paradise” is a TV show on Hulu about a postapocalyptic society that lives underground in a suburb. “Silo” is a TV show on Apple TV+ about a postapocalyptic society that lives underground in an apartment tower.

Donna and Bob Williamson call the strange souvenirs pulled from the ashes of their home their Museum of Misery. There is the green wine bottle that melted, its glass neck drooping, that looks like it was pulled from a Salvador Dalí painting.
