I watched around 225 new releases in 2024. That's the most I've ever seen in a year and likely the most I'll watch for the next few decades. I think in 2025 so far I've seen... five? Of all those movies, here are the 20 that I can't stop thinking about. writerandrew.com/index/2025/3/2…

It can never be overstated how consequential the Obama era was for the hell we are living now. What was set up under the Bush administration - seen as a transgression of American mythology about itself and its promise - became normalized and the baseline under Obama, becoming a…
