And the Nominees Are… (2024)
We’ve got our nominees.
Last year (and probably the year before), I felt like I had zero time to prepare or get things in order, and I basically went into predictions cold and just sort of guessed, wrote it out once and left it at that. This year, I knew I wasn’t gonna bother putting up all the precursors as they came in and instead just built my predictions as we went along. So at least I was able to put thought into most of it. I will say, though, very little time and effort went into the Shorts categories. And boy, does it show (we’ll get to it).
I watched the nominations as they happened this morning, and very little made me surprised. Which I guess is what I hope for when doing this every year. The most I saw was ‘oh, that got left off there and that got on there’. Nothing like, “Where the fuck did that come from?” But I also saw them, made mental notes, then went on with my day and completely forgot about everything for 12 hours. So I’m only now just sitting down to process everything. So let’s see how this all shook out and what actually things of note are worth mentioning. (more…)
