Today was perfect for hanging out in the park and reading Kissa by Kissa. Finally, Amanda can get it back—I borrowed it about a year ago. 🫣 I’ll try to make it up by lending her my copy of Ducks in return. 📚
Oops!… I did it again. I neglected sharing my web finds with you for a while, and they started to pile up. But don’t worry, go check out the End of May Hyperlink Dump for tantalizing links to a zine about HTML elements, weird little web toys, a scrolling lecture on the computer mouse, and more. 👀
Make sure to adjust the volume on your device, then enter Alt Text Selfies with sound.
Sex-kitten is flying through space fucking intergalactic nomads as well as eating gigantic pumpkin-pies. Her world smells of fresh sawdust and lilies. But for those who don’t have access to her mind, this picture may just look like a white person with long brown hair lying in bed wearing a beige t-shirt and beige eye mask surrounded by beige bedsheets.
It’s finally here—strawberry season! We took a short hike this morning and stopped by Rudenstams on our way back to grab these. 🤤
I helgen tog Sanna och jag varsin brassestol, satte oss i skuggan av ett par björkar och spelade in ett avsnitt av podden Hej (resten av) internet! – med humlesurr och fågelkvitter i bakgrunden. I nästan en timme tjötar vi gästböcker och webbkarnevaler och mycket mer. Finns där poddar finns. 🎙️
Today is Micro Camp day. 🏕️ A conversation with @film_girl about blogging, Micro.blog status update, and a community happy hour. It sounds wonderful, I hope I will be able to catch it live.
Our little library just opened up for its third summer. We had more books than space this year, but luckily, there’s another little beach library not far from ours that helped us out. 📚
Took this year’s first plunge into Viken today, documented by Sanna. Water was far from warm, but it definitely woke me up.
Sanna wrote a blog post about our trip to Copenhagen, loaded with links and photos of all the food, drinks, and fun stuff we experienced over there. 🇩🇰
Balderdash. Crowded and cozy cocktail joint with finesse. They were into spritzing perfume on the drinks… and the patrons!
One more from this week’s trip to Denmark. This one is from inside Rundetaarn (the Round Tower). Sanna, I, and what felt like most of the school kids in the country raced to the top. 😅
Please do not disturb, I’m writing my blog. 🥰 From the hotel we stayed at in Copenhagen.
We had tacos and ice cream for lunch today. 😋 I’m a sucker for street food, and Reffen did not disappoint. It’s a cozy little oasis in Copenhagen, filled with food stalls, surrounded by workshops and warehouses.
I just read Lizzy Stewart’s illustrated essay Walking Distance, and you should too. It’s about walking (no surprise there) but more specifically about the experience of being a woman out walking. Sprinkled with musings about moms, gender, social structure, and more. 📚
GERD was in town tonight and the show blew both our minds. Absolutely incredible. 🎵
I be wearing 💙
Remember when bands had proper websites? Some nights, feeling nostalgic, I cue up Rough Bunnies in my headphones and browse their old site for a while.
Aww, that last update from Frida. 😭 I hope her mom’s doing alright now and has a computer that isn’t on fire. Here’s Dance with your shadow. 🎵
The artwork for L’Impératrice upcoming album gives off a strong Sorayama vibe. 🦾
💙 PULSAR 💙 artwork for the new album from @l.imperatrice out June 7th !!
This piece has been through so many hands and taken various different forms since I made it - this marks the very satisfying final destination of her journey 🥚
This is a fact that often baffles people from other countries: lots of personal information about us Swedes is publicly available.
Want to know when I was born, where I live, who lives with me, if I’m married, what I pay in taxes, what kind of car I own, how much my condo is worth, which company boards I have a seat on, my personal identity number, and so on?
It’s all just a search away and mostly available for free.
In Sweden, anyone can get a media license and get exempt from the GDPR.
We’ve arrived in Gothenburg! Soon: Dina ögon live at Pustervik. But first, tacos and margaritas. 🌮
In addition to me scouting office spaces, this also happened today: Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson’s address to the nation regarding Sweden’s NATO membership. 200 years of military non-alignment comes to an end.
I swung by Science Park Towers today to scope out a potential office space. Ended up passing on the offer, but it was a tough call. The view of the city from the 12th floor is absolutely stunning. 🤩 Maybe someday…
Reality (2023) is a film about Reality, the American intelligence leaker, based on the FBI’s interrogation of her in reality. You should definitely watch it! 🍿
Phew. 😮💨 Update on apps distributed in the European Union:
Previously, Apple announced plans to remove the Home Screen web apps capability in the EU as part of our efforts to comply with the DMA. … We have received requests to continue to offer support for Home Screen web apps in iOS, therefore we will continue to offer the existing Home Screen web apps capability in the EU. … [Developers and users] can expect the return of the existing functionality for Home Screen web apps with the availability of iOS 17.4 in early March.
Underbart citat från Skatteverkets nyhetsflöde:
Det finns inga särskilda regler för den som är född på skottdagen, säger Vjera Catovic som arbetar som verksamhetsutvecklare inom folkbokföringen på Skatteverket. Hon berättar att de som är födda den 29 februari oavsett blir ett år äldre för varje år som går. Trots att födelsedatumet inte finns med i kalendern annat än vart fjärde år.
Va skönt. Grattis alla 6 670 personer som fyllde år igår! 🥳
