Taking out last year’s trash.

Hello hello, First Drafters. I hope everyone’s celebrations went well last night, and that your hangovers this morning are mercifully tolerable.

Happy New Year, everyone. And a big thanks to Athenae & Scout for sharing their platform with me. Thanks as well to all our regular contributors, and to most of our commenters.

Speaking of comments, I have a topic for you: The first day of the year, which we imbue with so much promise, begins with moans of regret from millions.

Discuss.

Also, because I have to start off the new year right: Fuck.
