28 Years LaterOther
But the last movie I watched was 28 Years Later and that's by Danny Bole. I'm I'm like I you know I was born in the 80s grew up as a kid in the 90s and so grew up with you know you know train spotting was 28 days later then he made a movie called Sunshine. So 28 years later is a type of movie that's just not made anymore. It's the most ' 90s movie made since the '9s. It's like very rock and roll and also deeply touching.

the most recent book I read is a book called Nuclear War Scenario and it's a very much a non-fiction and scared the out of me. So if you like nightmares it'll be beautiful bedtime reading.

Every entry is a verbatim quote and a link to the public post it came from. Nothing is paraphrased. If it is not on record somewhere public, it is not here.
The verdict is what they actually said: loved and liked are explicit; recommended means they told others to get it; uses means they only say they use it; read is a book on their public shelf with no verdict; mixed and disliked are kept too.
A dashed affiliate link, sponsored or their own label means the post disclosed a relationship. It is shown, never hidden.
The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is for its kind of thing.
The shading behind a date shows how dated a recommendation is, for its kind of thing. Fully green is recent. It drains a quarter at a time as the post gets older, and is empty once it reads as dated.
What counts as old depends on the thing. A laptop praised four years ago has been replaced twice; a book loved twenty years ago is probably still loved. The shading is gone after about:
Stripes mean the post carries no date and the date shown is an estimate. No date at all, no shading.
