| If you're still hunting for gifts, first — I'm sorry. Second, here might be some ideas, so long as you order them now. Like, now now. After we got such excellent feedback (and, yes, had fun ourselves) doing last year's rundown of our columnists' favorite movies, books, TV and more of 2020, we decided to do the whole thing again. 2021, it turns out, had plenty of riches. The infamous scarf may be backordered on Taylor Swift's official merch site, but the album "Red (Taylor's Version)," Christine Emba's pick, should still be available. Get ready to feel everything. John Paul Brammer suggests rediscovering the Nintendo Switch fighter "Super Smash Bros. Ultimate," which was a pandemic balm to him. Jettisoning Jigglypuff into the troposphere might be just the gift for the gamer in your life. And there's a whole slew of books, from Jennifer Rubin's choice of the 1950s-set "The Lincoln Highway" to Matt Bai's robot-narrated "Klara and the Sun" to Paul Waldman's graphic novels "Hollow Kingdom" and "Feral Creatures." Okay, you might not be able to get Steve Stromberg's sumo wrestlers here from Japan in time. But you can always print out the receipt, and say they'll be here soon. Happy holidays.
P.S. Right now, a full year's subscription is just 99 cents every four weeks, our best price ever. That includes all of the Opinions we share here every day, plus everything our newsroom has to offer: investigations, recipes, book reviews and more.  (Danielle Kunitz/The Washington Post) We asked our columnists to share a piece of culture that had a big impact on them this year. Here's what they recommended.
