We got New Year's Eve snow here in Chicago; that was nice. I like it when winter behaves like winter.

Phobos and I somehow decided it was a good idea to watch an apocalyptic thriller (Leave the World Behind) on a night people were obviously going to set off fireworks; that was silly. Good movie, though. Some plotholes, but very effective at creating a tense, uncomfortable atmosphere and making you desperate to know what the heck is really going on. We paused to try to figure it out (and reset our adrenaline levels) several times.

I'm... not looking forward to this year in the US, if I'm honest. There's too much uncertainty for resolutions, so I just have a wish: that we make it through in one piece, without electing another would-be dictator.
