Most Popular Posts of 2025
“Judging by the posts that were most popular with our readers, 2025 was a year for the literary and irreverent, as well as the horny and deeply reverent. It was a year for poignant explorations of grief and loss and love. And above all, it was a year for calling out one of the most malicious and all-powerful forces hell-bent on destroying our society: The New York Times Connections puzzle.”
