I’ll start!

From the complete dissolution of USAID to the new America First Global Health Strategy (which I don’t entirely dislike) to the SNAP crisis, federal layoffs, and educational funding claw-backs, 2025 has been intense!

Here are five things I hope we leave in 2025:

• Doomscrolling: my media vice.
• Rising Costs: they’re real!
• The sense of AI or bust: I love AI, but it’s not the answer to everything.
• Senseless violence: there’s too much of it, and we just move on.
• Hate in all forms!

What do you hope is left in 2025?
