JANUARY 2024 Issue

Welcome to your January 2024 issue of ANTIGRAVITY.

We greet another year with a reflection on time and agency, enter Capricorn season (characterized by self-determination and formidable emotional depth), clean yoga mats and thrift shop records with Tips From Theriot, get to know the English pea in Dirt Nerd, discuss giving people lots of bass with Melissa Guion (MJ Guider) in our Sound Check column, and compile some of the public comments from the City Council’s decision to grant a 15-year tax break to Shell.

Senior editor Mary Beth Campbell breaks down the “tripledemic” (flu, COVID-19, RSV) and how we can protect ourselves against “sick season,” senior editor Holly Devon explores the turbulence ahead for New Orleans under a Landry administration, and Alena Cover speaks with Emergency Legal Responders about bringing attorney expertise to disaster recovery, both here in Louisiana and beyond.

The January print issue also includes a pull-out 2024 Dirtfarm calendar; we hope you find it fun and useful.

Our comics, photos, poetry, and a tarot reading will complete your commencement into 2024.
