My pal Blair recently sent me his list of all the albums he listened to in 2024 and it inspired me to do a better job of digging deeper into my collection this year. To keep me on task, I'm going to keep track with a thread here.
The film at #5 was one of the first that popped into my head after getting the first four, but I thought it came out one year earlier and opened wider than the weeks in release and total box office suggest.
Dang it.

James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”
Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:
“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

I think this thread is completely correct.
Trump has a personalistic cult he is able to activate when he is on the presidential ballot. A large portion of this cult are simple MAGA bigots from the GOP base. But it's rounded out by low-engagement / low trust voters who show up only for him. (1/n)
You’re seeing the limits of an entire political movement based around one guy. Trump won in 24 with a unique coalition of Latinos and young people in addition to the traditional R voters, and Trump just completely abandoned these new supporters as president to the detriment of the entire party 1/4
