Tim’s Top 10 Films of 2025

In a general sense, 2025 sucked. The United States seems to have been transformed into a foul combination of kakistocracy and plutocracy, while sliding pell mell into fascism.

In a general sense, 2025 sucked. The United States seems to have been transformed into a foul combination of kakistocracy and plutocracy, while sliding pell mell into fascism. Innocent people are being arrested and disappeared to God knows where. Real Christianity feels further away than ever, while gleeful cruelty feels like the law of the land. It would be an understatement to say that things are not great. In a cinematic sense, however, 2025 kind of kicked ass. This year, we had excellent genre films, smart blockbusters, affecting documentaries, and indie films that punched far beyond th…

On rare, crystal-clear days in Boulder, the horizon opens up and reveals something special — a distant, snow-capped summit rising high above the Front Range. That peak is James Peak, standing tall at 13,294 feet, quietly watching over Boulder from the Continental Divide. While Boulder is famous for its close-up mountain drama — the Flatirons, Bear Peak, and Green Mountain — James Peak offers a different kind of beauty. It’s not immediate or towering overhead. Instead, it appears far in the distance, subtle yet powerful, its white summit often visible when the air is clean and the ligh…

Boulder Quote of the Day: Kindness as a Universal Language

Some quotes don’t need interpretation. They arrive with a truth that feels immediately familiar. Mark Twain’s words about kindness are one of those rare reminders that cut through noise and complexity with clarity. Kindness, he suggests, doesn’t rely on explanation or shared language. It’s understood instinctively, felt rather than analyzed. “Kindness is a language which the deaf can hear and the blind can see.” — Mark Twain That idea resonates deeply in Boulder. This is a place where people slow down just enough to notice one another. Whether it’s a brief smile on a tra…

Every year, Boulder’s food scene quietly reveals what matters most. Sometimes it’s innovation. Sometimes it’s indulgence. In 2025, it was something simpler, steadier, and more meaningful.

Boulder is no stranger to dramatic weather shifts. Sitting at the meeting point of the Rocky Mountains and the open plains, the city regularly experiences powerful winds, rapid drops in humidity, and fast-changing conditions that elevate wildfire risk—especially along the Front Range. During periods of high winds and low humidity, fire danger rises quickly. These are the days when a single spark can travel faster than anyone expects, when open spaces are closed out of caution, and when residents are reminded just how important preparedness and awareness truly are. Why Boulder Faces Eleva…
