    My New Year’s Resolution: Have More Enemies1

    How are your New Year’s resolutions going? I rarely make them, but this year I have. Please do not mistake the title. I did not write “make more enemies,” though to be honest that might not be a bad one for some people. That would be a different essay, however. This is not an essay

    Dear Greta Thunberg, Congratulations on making the cover of Time and being named “Person of the Year.” That’s quite an achievement for a person your age.
