I'm not sure there are words for how timely Andor season 2 looks like it's going to be.

as promised, I am here to rage about Marianne Jean-Baptisteβnamed by the New York Film Critics Circle, the LA Film Critics Association and the National Society of Film Critics as the best actress of 2024βbeing completely ignored by the Oscars. I doubt voters even watched Hard Truths.
Always listening for more, but it's #NYE tradition to drop it now. Here's the list of my favorite tracks of 2024. Hit shuffle and enjoy. open.spotify.com/playlist/0o5... #Singles2024
Also, we've got a new look for the @comissourian.bsky.social site. Executive editor Elizabeth Stephens breaks it down. www.columbiamissourian.com/from_the_new...
ICYMI, a new Chick-fil-A is in the works for south #CoMo. If you've seen or endured the lines at the Shoppes at Stadium spot, a second location was a long time coming. With Trader Joe's heading into that area, this should relieve congestion a bit. Maybe. www.columbiamissourian.com/news/local/p...
The real ones recall, before things were adjusted, heading west back to downtown #CoMo from the Clark Lane area by hopping on the ramp off the I-70 Connector, quickly making your way across a couple of lanes and heading left on Exit 128. Previous pro tip, and not perilous at all.
Put this up on X the other day, and it got some traction there, so I'll open with it here: For those who have been in town for a while, Tuesday night's closing of Exit 128 marked the end of a pretty profound landmark in #CoMo history. #TakeTheLeft columbiamissourian.com/news/local/i...
