I lived through Russians trashing people exactly like this both on TV and IRL for years. There's always an excuse to blame the victim: they weren't properly dressed, they weren't polite or thankful enough, they didn't do this or that, so they deserved it. I left because I couldn't take it anymore.

Swenglish of the day:

"Is everyone fatting?"

As in "Alla fattar?"

Made my first ever homemade chebureki last weekend... only to find out that I live with a man who tries to eat them with a fork and knife.

Omg how beautiful is "And then we danced"!

Got myself a "secret friend" for Vänliga veckan at my base school. This is gonna be fun! I do feel a little sorry for them since I rarely even get the chance to say hi, but I'll figure something out.

I'm devastated and terrified by all the confirmed information coming out about the Komvux shooting in Örebro. As a former Komvux student myself, I find it hard to believe the shooter had no political motivation.

All my thoughts are with the victims and their families.

Because of MyHeritage’s updated ethnicity estimate, I dug a little deeper into my ancestry today. Found a record of my family living in that one specific village since 1745. Yet my mom insists we're not from there because SHE wasn’t born there.

I want to be annoyed by how surprised John was about making it to the final, BUT ‘Hush Hush’ got a second chance - despite being a super non-Swedish song and having a cameraman almost die on stage... There are things to celebrate today! 🎉

(Plus, there’s no such thing as too much Käärijä)

One of my pupils was really, really disappointed when they found out that Smash Into Pieces wouldn't be participating in this year's Melodifestivalen with 'Six Feet Under.'
I think it's safe to say they've integrated quite well 😅

I många år efter min flytt till Sverige och på grund av kriget kunde jag inte skriva ett enda ord i mina noveller. Alla projekt verkade för barnsliga jämfört med vad som händer i världen.

Äntligen något roligt på Mello i år!

Ходили с детьми в библиотеку. Из окна библиотеки было красиво.

I set my Twitter screen time to 30 min a day because scrolling through that app makes me anxious. So, let's give BlueSky a chance.
