I read good books, often Science-Fiction and Fantasy. In between, I write. Life in the arctic is just fine right now. No darkness at all until late July. A very long day. Makes us very adaptable to cold, but not to heat.
Det er rart å bla i elektroniske og papirutgaver av nyheter etter influensa. De elektroniske skiller lite mellom nye og gamle nyheter, bortsett fra en og annen påskrift om at informasjonen er mer enn to år gammel og kan være utdatert. Men:
Ny pave fra USA!
Ny LO-leder! Ting skjer.

Å lese om igjen gamle favoritter i influensatåke gir en behagelig følelse av å ha oversikt i verden. Nyttig motvekt til nyhetene som har en deprimerende déjà vu-komponent for tiden. #ElizabethMoon #sf #bøker #bok #space 📚💙

Tid og rom til å skape! Ikke bare produsere! Da jobber de best og mest langsiktig, og blir dessuten sjeldnere utbrent. www.forskerforum.no/hoyere-utdan...
Høyere utdanning trenger en sjel
Akademikere kan ikke ledes med makt eller tall alene – de trenger tid, rom og frihet til å skape, skriver Ahmet Soylu.

Crime reading for Easter is an old tradition. Donna Leon writes police investigations with lots of delicious food in modern Venice. I haven’t read them all, give me time. Some are faster paced, others are way slower. #DonnaLeon #Brunetti #Påskekrim #mystery #crimeFiction

«A memory called empire» by Arcady Martine is so good, so insightful about representing a small nation and dealing with an all-powerful neighbor.

Really enjoying reading Mary Robinette Kowal’s «The Martian contingency» this weekend. Mars is absolutely not a human-friendly environment, in case you thought it a nice tourist spot. 💙📚 #book #sf #MaryRobinetteKowal #novel #AlternateHistory

Yesterday I tried to find the right building to look for a relative. It was not on the website. Or it might be, but not easily found. Were the designers of the websites never students, faculty or visitors?
there is no clearer universal across academic institutions than the dysfunction of a university website — not a day goes by that I don't think of this xkcd

Les et svært godt essay i Morgenbladet av litteraturviter Hilde Slåtto. (nr.48, 2024) Om George Orwell, om 1984, hans kvinnesyn og hvordan mange litteraturkritikere dekket over dette. I Sandra Newmans Julia, vises 1984 fra en annen vinkel. #Orwell #Morgenbladet #Julia #HildeSlåtto

Writing is such a magical gift. I can free-dive down to a hundre meters in my fiction. I can go to space. And speed up healing. Writing can also give nice revenge-opportunities, without needing to write from prison afterwards. Happy writing, fellow writers! #writingbenefits #writing #writingIsMagic

Scary, sad days, when four young skiers dies in avalanches. It feels too close to home. Writing needs to be about anything else today. Condolences to the families and friends of the skiers. #skiing #avalanches #France #skiers #Alps

I am enjoying reading “Earth”, Sf-novel by David Brin, with fascinating science details. So modern, despite being published in 1990. It’s great to see how some scary scenarios, like ozone layer depletion didn’t happen. Other problems, on the other hand..
