2025 is a banner year for astoundingly bad NYT headlines and I wrote about what a bummer it's been--with some commentary from @nytpitchbot.bsky.social

I had always heard this movie was bad and mostly associated it with a Crow T. Robot joke so was shocked when our local outdoor movie concept showed and also it was very very very very funny.

Have started putting my favorite songs of the year in an order. Doing it by (very approximate) genre, the only ones I have left to go are Ambient, Quiet, Hip Hop, Pop, and Foreign/Other.
