We’re closing our little library for the season. One of the joys of being its custodian is how books just magically appear — put there by its patrons. It’s like a very slow, human book recommendation algorithm. Today, I came across The White Hotel by D. M. Thomas, an author who’s new to me. 📚
Lake Viken showed us its best side this morning. 🍂
Maybe you should give Klara Keller a listen? 🎵
Idag skickade vi nyhetsbrev från Särna och det gick alldeles utmärkt. En dimmig hälsning och två av höstens nya trilogier. 👀 För dig som gillar skräck och/eller sf. 📚
These days, it’s impossible for me to pass by stickers in the wild without thinking of @maique and his sticker spotter project. From today’s hike, the other side of the sign said, “Deadly cliff, follow the trail”.
Overall, we had a pleasant day hiking in Fulufjället (8.54 kilometers).
We also said hello to Old Tjikko, the world’s oldest known Norway Spruce (9,550 years).
Today, we visited Njupeskär, the waterfall in Sweden with the tallest free-falling drop (70 meters).
I love how blogs will still be around in the year 2321, according to the Bobiverse series. 📚
Still, a new civilization was always a great view from space, and a purple-hued planet was especially striking. We took a lot of pictures for our blog.
I had a terrific autumn evening, so here’s the recipe if you want to try it out.
🍷 Pour yourself a drink.
🪵 Grab some firewood.
🌌 Look up at the stars. Think about space for a bit.
🔥 Build a fire and sip your drink.
🧝♀️ As Zelda, go find that lost horse.
You’re welcome.
Of all the photos I snapped this summer, this one’s my favorite. A bunch of people I love, heading to the beach for some fun in the sun. ⛱️
Less than four hours until I can visit Hyrule again and finally actually play as Zelda. 🧝♀️ Reading the four-part developer interview over the past few days has made me even more hyped for the game. I love that Sano-san is the first female director of the series. About time!
We talked about covering up pits because this indeed seemed rather dirty, but when I actually tried it, it wasn't so easy to pull off, and I ended up accidentally falling down the pit instead. (Laughs)
Our new car has the quirkiest acceleration sound effect. 🥹
The video above shows a close-up of the speedometer as we accelerate, along with a silly sound effect that had us cracking up.
Got my AirPods 4 today! Things I like compared to the third generation: USB-C, speaker in case (for Find My), and active noise cancellation. What I really miss: MagSafe. First song I listened to: Despair, Hangover & Ecstasy by The Dø. 🎵
I like Henrietta’s take on the logo. 🍃 Also available as wallpaper.
🍏 Pinch me 🍏 I’ve had the honor of working with one of my favourite brands, Apple. I’ve worked with their amazing team to create a logo for the new store opening at Mall of Scandinavia on September 20th.
Ture taking a siesta.

React is useful for making complex interfaces like Facebook’s or for making otherwise simple interfaces, and their underlying codebases, complex like Facebook’s.
Always a treat when Heydon posts a new video to Webbed Briefs. 🤭
The task that generative A.I. has been most successful at is lowering our expectations, both of the things we read and of ourselves when we write anything for others to read. It is a fundamentally dehumanizing technology because it treats us as less than what we are: creators and apprehenders of meaning. It reduces the amount of intention in the world.
Just saw these two updates next to each other in my feed reader. So relatable! Thanks for the chuckle, @manton. 😊
Instead of going for a swim in Vättern, we hopped on our bikes and rode over to an air-conditioned movie theater to see Alien: Romulus. A pretty good way to wrap up a warm day.
We had the pleasure of meeting my new, hairy, brother-in-law this week. Welcome to the family, Ture. 🌭 (Photo via Sanna.)
Today I learned that the Alien franchise is owned by Disney, which means that every xenomorph egg that hatches, being a daughter of the xenomorph queen, is technically a Disney princess
