Did a short shift at the bookshop yesterday. Sold yet another copy of the Master and Margarita because I love that book so much. Asked the owners to order more Doppelgänger and brought home this stash to read myself:) #booksky

Good news of the day: it will rain on the wannabe 👑 parade.

That went sour very fast :)

Amun the lazy cat playing with the toy he got for Xmas that is almost shredded into oblivion since this photo was taken. Adorable chap who loves to be my radiator. He is a rebel at heart. 💜

Everything that creates happiness is for free. Consumption is not part of that equation.

Slowly getting better from my long years of long COVID. Winter is graduating giving way for spring. Went out for a birthday walk yesterday with my daughter to the tiny mountains. Nourishment.

I am doing a shift in the little bookshop, quiet day, so I peak into Bluesky when the shop is empty of people. I watch the cover of the banned book in the bookshelf ahead of me, with some of my favorite books and am reminded we are not in 1935 but 2025 and yet it's the same script.

First Bluesky news reference I’ve seen in Icelandic media. Of course it’s the ever so brilliant @eliothiggins.bsky.social who gets the honor of being first.

Nearly all of #Iceland is under red weather warning. Waiting for the storm to arrive shortly.
You can see the winds arriving from afar at this website: earth.nullschool.net#current/wind...

The harsh reality is: every nation is currently just one election from willfully electing fascist regimes because of the massive deliberate brainrot inflicted by social media and other tools of brainwashing by the most powerful entities in the world. How do we stop it?

I honestly had forgotten how many people rooted for my crazy artistic experimentations and how young I was when I got to have my work published. I was 14 when the very first poem I wrote was published in a newspaper. It was of course about the aftermath of a nuclear bomb. Such a carefree child.

Going through the archives and sorting them is ever so time consuming because each piece of paper contains so many memories and reflections. My mom was a rather popular musician and I found this photo in her stuff. I’m the freaky looking teenager in the back :)

Since my little family started a new tradition of who gets to host Xmas dinner: My son and his amazing girlfriend; I got to skip decorating my flat and only got 3 Hyacinths because they smell like heaven.

A festive collage. A deep symbolic meaning. Your Xmas riddle. If you can solve it, the awards are great: figure it out and find out :) happy brightmas or whatever fits before mas 🌲🎄🕊️🌞

I had gotten some fancy fish jerky for the cat as Xmas treat. Forgot to hide it and when I got home from work he had tore open the bag and consumed half of it. He is now demanding to have the rest. Thankfully he hasn’t masted opening the fridge 🤣

Iceland has been taken over by women 🌝 the President, the Bishop (Iceland has Lutheran state church) the chief of police and now the new government has 3 women leaders and majority of women as ministers in key ministries and Prime Minister. Will we finally get matriarchal society? What do u think?

Everyone gives at least one book for Xmas in Iceland. My favorite tradition. Working in a small bookshop during this season is like heaven. ☁️⛅️☁️📖📚 I am the luckiest person in the 🌎🌝

#Icelandic outdoor clothing label and tourist-store chain in #Iceland is selling Minke whale-hot dogs. 🤢👿

Boycott #Icewear!
It’s not the first time they are guilty of unethical practices!

Breaking news from #Iceland.
PM for a placeholder gov: Bjarni Bjarnason has given permission to kill at least 1000 #whales 🐳 for the next 5 years - We had elections last weekend & I need you all to boycott my island to inspire the next government to reverse it.
