Breath in breath out, Scandinavian oxygen
* So the other day I saw my old physics teacher outside a grocery store there he was handing out flyers for the local ex-trotsky party. Well if I would vote for a small party it would not be the ex-trotskyist party. It should be the small liberal conservative party that unironically use the phrase “make Sweden Switzerland again". Not because of that slogan but because they have an oak-leaf as party symbol. Look at my name.
* No, of course I’m being silly, I have already voted and it wasn’t for the oak-leaf party. The reason I voted now is that I will be traveling on the voting day. We’re going to, a place called, Abisko, in the far north. This will be the first time since 1995 I’m going to be north of the polar circle.
* I have a story about the physic teacher. He often talked about hunting. That made you think: “this isn’t like that infamous sitcom where the physicians do nothing but obsess over pop culture. This is north Sweden, our physicians hunt elks”.
*Then I could write something about the words “make Sweden Switzerland again". The only time I have seen a cap with the phrase “make Sweden‘ lagom again” was on (the dating app) Bumble. Now I don’t have any dating app on my phone anymore. They don’t work.
* History. I know I have posted this photo before. I am pleased with the photo. The castle isn’t that far from there mom grow up and it’s called Läckö slott. In the 17-century it was owned by the de la Gardie-family (from what’s today is Belgium). What I just have learned is that they made their money on iron and you know why the iron industry was booming in the 17-century? Okay that’s might not be common knowledge, but it was because England needed iron for the transatlantic slave trade. So this castle is what slave money looks like.
