Week Notes 43

27 Oct, 2024

Doing

I migrated from Joplin to Obsidian. The mobile app for Joplin is fairly bare bones and clunky, so makes me less inclined to take notes on my phone which is my primary device for note taking. Obsidian app is leaps ahead and the plugin ecosystem fantastic. It’s also made compiling these weekly notes much easier.
I’m back gaming too, FC25 entirely to play online with a couple of mates. I’ve never really been one for playing footy games on my own. I’m utterly awful at it, hope they’ve got plenty of patience.

Atomic Days: The Untold Story of the Most Toxic Place in America by Joshua Frank - Some factual inaccuracies early on in the book make me question how much of this is accurate. The author is clearly passionate about the topic but I felt like I was being yelled at for much of the book.

In A Violent Nature - this is an interesting film, a slow burn that builds to a nail biting final 20 minutes. The tension it builds is incredible, the feeling that something is about to happen.

Slow Horses Season 4 - One of the best shows on TV and certainly in the top 3 of series I've ever seen. Just brilliant.
Sweetpea - This is a dark comedy that hasn't really grabbed me.
