This is a fantastic list, and I’d add that two elements that make Casino Royale so good are Ben Whishaw as Q and Mikkelsen as Le Chiffre. First time I’d ever seen either, and they became instant faves.

Just looked up the Animal Collective cover art for Merriweather Post Pavilion as I tried to write a joke and I'm gonna need several minutes for my eyes to crawl back into my skull

They don’t tell you this when you’re preparing to become a parent, but it’s a lot of fun dancing around with your 14-month-old daughter to Tame Impala and The Darkness (related: Permission To Land still whips more than 20 years later)

Totally agree. Turn into the pitch and be an eternal hero in Milwaukee. For a guy who had incredibly low K rates in the minors, he sold out for power this year, and that one was above eye level

Good god, what an anxiety-inducing finish for me, a neutral. As @slangsonsports.bsky.social constantly reminds us, baseball is the best.
