In 2023, I plan to relaunch this website in a huge way, and what better way to kick things off than to start by sharing the best and worst of the year in all of the media forms I regularly consume?

It seems like everyone got into new hobbies while stuck inside throughout 2020. Some people learned a productive skill, like cooking or sewing.
