And now, my Top 5 Albums of 2025!* These albums were on repeat consistently this year, and for good reason! They were really good!! And really outside of one artist, they were all new artists to me, or at least my first time actively listening to them. I was aware of them, but finally listened.

Next, the Top 5 “Used” Albums of 2025! I was very impressed with these albums! They didn’t release in 2025 but they are still worth a listen as well! Confessions on a Dance Floor - Madonna All Things Must Pass - George Harrison Homogenic - Björk Step II - Sylvester Purgatory - The Mystery Lights

Okay up first, The Honorable Mentions of 2025! These were all great albums, but just didn’t reach the heights of the Top 5 for me, or were very close to making the list. Still worth a listen!

Onto my own lists! Since I listened to so many albums last year, I’m going to divide it into three threads/sections.

What did Apple Music have to say? Let’s take a look: Over 41,000 minutes of listening time. Almost 4,700 different songs played. And an interesting mix for top 5 most played songs.

So how about my listening habits over 2025? Well I personally kept track, and I listened to 172 unique albums last year. Mostly just to expose myself to new music and expand my catalogue. Did I enjoy everything I listened to? No. But that’s okay. How else would I know if I liked it or not?

Okay before is too late I need to do a thread about my top 10 albums of 2025. Clogging your feeds for the next little bit lmao.

So late to the party, but I think I’m turning into a Dirty Boy(z). youtu.be/97F48fQXs8E?...

Just fucking cried watching Defying Gravity for the first time in the theater.

Currently on repeat. Dark, moody, thoughtful techno on how “global tech is in ethical, moral, and political decline.” Produced by Soulwax and I can definitely hear it!! music.apple.com/us/album/cit...

CHARLI XCX A GRAMMY WINNER I KNOW THAT’S FUCKING RIGHT

Productivity killer at work.

I'm doing something different in 2025! I enjoy writing, and what better way to improve on it than to blog about my interests like video games, books, movies, and real-life events. Would be neat to see people take a read for what I plan to do in 2025.

Does anyone have good Steam remote play game/low spec laptop recommendations for introducing a date to gaming over a voice call? He just has a work laptop so it can’t be too difficult to run.

RIP The Vivienne. One of my favorite queens to ever grace any franchise of Drag Race. Man I was just watching highlights last night too. Truly heartbreaking. 💔

Great now I need to imagine my boys in regalia.

Just watched Nosferatu in IMAX. Good film, made me jump at times (I’m a baby), probably won’t watch again. I got a hug at the end of the date. ☺️

The addiction continues….
