    @LuluTheCuteSimmy understanding is that they changed the whims system to become a wants/fears system - whims have now become "wants". and it is by design that there is no 'x' button

    "Are you ready to tackle your Sim’s Wants & Fears? This base game update replaces whims and includes a large selection of Wants that your Sims will want to achieve or Fears they want to overcome. This feature is on by default and you can toggle them off in the “Gameplay” options menu." - Update 07/26/2022 (ea.com)

    @capetowngirlie  I've merged your post with the master thread for this issue.  This is by design: whims have been replaced by wants, and wants work a bit differently.  Your sims should roll new wants when they sleep.
