Hope you are well plebpoet :) As for your questions:

Are you starting something new? Not really, still working to get my old stuff off the ground first. Focus is my business (#784376), writing (going to finally publish some older material + if all goes well, I'd expect some new things to emerge also) and physical exercise (I think I'll be able to do a proper handstand pushup this year. I'm not too far off anymore). But my short-medium term plans are very loose. Might end up working a fiat job for a bit. Hopefully will end up travelling in South & Central America by the 2nd half of the year. Maybe I'll record a song or two. Who knows. Does your political climate feel weird? I try not to think about it. What one word would you use to describe your vibe for 2025? Resilience. But that was also the theme for the end of 2024... so maybe something new. Maybe mine is renew as well. IDK, it's too early to tell I guess. What's your current music/TV/podcast interest? Nothing too specific. My music taste is a good indicator of how all over the place I can be. Current go-to playlists include Get hype (workouts), TRIBAL (workouts/yoga, driving), Jazz for Reading (work, background, chill), Bossa Nova Classics (background, chill), Healing Rhythms (yoga, meditation), Easy listening (background, chill), Best of Chopin (work, background, chill).

I have found myself watching an above average amount of old (and new) Academy of Ideas videos on YouTube recently, though.
