- Reposted by Xim123I'm convinced the main reason new years resolutions don't work is because you're trying to take away something you enjoy during the bleakest, coldest month. Quit stuff in spring, in the past 3 springs I've quit smoking, drinking and joined the gym. So far have stuck to all three.

- Reposted by Xim123Bang on the money: “Let it haunt Trump and his racist followers that future Americans will embrace the Obamas as beloved figures while studying him as a stain on our history.” Trump is determined to be remembered as a 'great man'.

- Film Diary The Lost Bus, 2025 - ★★★½ Didn't realise that this was going to be so much of a disaster movie and perhaps if it had focussed more on the bus it would have ended up being slightly more effective. letterboxd.com/xim123/film/...
- Film Diary 28 Years Later: The Bone Temple, 2026 - ★★★★ Really good but I have a nagging feeling that it could have been great. letterboxd.com/xim123/film/...
- Film Diary No Other Choice, 2025 - ★★★★ Really enjoyed this but even though it was only a few days ago I can't remember why (which I don't think is a flaw of the film). I need to get back into the habit of reviewing things sooner. letterboxd.com/xim123/film/...

- It looks like #Wemo switches have retained their settings but now with no way of changing them. So I now have 2 stuck on away mode and another that turns itself off after 20 mins. Was this known? I just assumed they'd stop working.

- Film Diary Final Destination Bloodlines, 2025 - ★★★ Enjoyed this more than I expected, the ending felt quite rushed though. The deaths were all great. At times it felt like it was more animation than live action but that didn't matter. letterboxd.com/xim123/film/...
- Film Diary Bowie: The Final Act, 2025 - ★★★½ Fairly standard but interesting stuff. It stepped up as it entered the 2000s and the parts focussing on the Glastonbury headline slot and Blackstar are really good. letterboxd.com/xim123/film/...
