I like to use my Current Things page as a monthly snapshot of what I’m consuming and the thoughts I have about them. If my blog is the primary source document, Current Things is its combo first-look movie trailer and hand-curated card catalog.

I find that knowing I’m going to write a “hot take” of a book, movie, TV show season, etc. has made me engage more with what I’m consuming. I like that these reviews are my visceral reaction. If I end up having more or different thoughts, I’ll follow up with them.
