2025 has been a year of intentionality. I started the year with a book. For a brief while I enjoyed watching the Chinese make fun of us Americans on Xiaohongsu. Superbowl and the halftime show was a master class in subversive art, one I took great pleasure in dissecting and pondering over.
Spring brought with it birthdays and the announcement of the documentary premiere. This year has been packed with over a dozen screenings of the film and its attendant Q&As. I have had the pleasure of watching metacognition in my children. With every passing Q&A their responses feel honed and deep.
Politics has been ever present this year, taking up a large chunk of my mind space and actual time. My resistance has taken the form of joy, quiet persistence and rest. We attended three concerts this year – Stray Kids, TXT and Ado.
Drama watching has slowed down towards the end of the year. If there is one show that is the stand out for me, it would have to be Melo Movie.
I had a fantastic time turning fifty in the company of family and friends. There was lovely cake, lots of presents and wishes from a whole lot of people. I step into 2026 with the hope that the world will look vastly different from the one we are leaving behind in 2025.
Happy New Year!
