Series
Series are where I stay with one question, argument or system long enough to let the thinking develop.
These are not collections of articles that happen to share a topic. Each Series has a deliberate sequence. One piece creates the ground for the next, and the argument can deepen, change direction or become more precise along the way.
Lenses organize the broader territories of The Thinking Lens. Series do something different: they give one line of thought room to unfold.
