December 2025

Published December 31, 2025

December is the slowest, fastest, and shortest month of the year. Everything
has to happen this month. But I survived!

From the blog since my last recently post:

  • [13]Do something about it

🍀 Life

Holidays, dinners, family gatherings, visits, dinners, sickness. You name it.
This month, we had it all!

Christmas was really chill this year at my SO’s family. Fantastic food,
excellent company, and our daughter got to open a bunch of gifts.

For New Year Eve today, we’re eating dinner with friends of ours that has a
daughter the same age as ours. We’ll head home before the fireworks start and
just take in the new year by watching a movie and doing a no-stress
celebration.

🎬 Entertainment

From my [15]logs.

Movies

  • Idiocracy (2006) – I remembered this movie being better…
  • General Magic (2019) – Incredible story. I had never heard about this
    General Magic company before watching this doc. And like the doc clearly
    lays out, they were ahead of their time with their “smartphone”, but they
    absolutely paved the way for Apple, and others.
  • Rain Man (1988) – I believe Tom Cruise is like this in real life, he’s not
    actually acting 😂
  • Sick of Myself (2022) – WTF. The director/writer must know someone like
    this. And it’s sick that people actually will go to these lengths just for
    attention. And I see a clear similarity between The Substance and this
    movie.
  • Avatar: Fire and Ash (2025) – It has touching moments, a bunch of weird
    dialog and even cringe dialog. The action was cool, but what threw me off
    from the whole movie and annoyed me from start to end was that some of the
    movie is 24 FPS and some of it is 48 (felt higher). So whenever the movie
    went from 48 to 24 FPS the movie felt like a videogame and felt like it was
    lagging.
  • Marty Supreme (2025) – This movie had everything: an obnoxious protagonist,
    obnoxious supporting characters, likable story, fucked up events, awesome
    setting (1950s). This movie kept me entertained from start to finish.

TV

Still watching Pluribus S1, we also started watching Fallout S2.

Games

Still playing a lot of ARC Raiders. I feel like a kid when I get to play it.
The game is so easy to just pick up, and if I end up losing, it’s not the end
of the world. I just kept the loot safe the other guy 😂

    race.

    really cool.
  • [20]I Wish People Were More Public – I agree. We can learn from each other
    and be inspired. Needless to say that we don’t need to be public through
    social media, but do whatever floats your boat :)

    losing weight!

    I feel like this isn’t true for me at least.

    visual art.
