I’m not a huge horror fan unfortunately! I don’t mind the gore, but I get really freaked out by suspense and like “the killer is lurking in the background and might jump out any moment.”
But a light horror thing I watched recently was the tv show “From”! And I loved this book:

One of the briefer cases we discuss in this episode is the suspicious death of Dag Hammarskjöld, the second person to be secretary general of the UN.
And we manage to find parallels to both Baelor Breakspear and Balon Greyjoy somehow.

Seriously, this dude got a letter that was like ”hey some people are gonna try to kill your tonight”, ignored that and went to a masquerade ball. While also wearing a highly visible badge that made his identity super clear.

Too-ticki is done with this whole situation, I think.
I asked her what she thinks of your slander, but she just looked at me and then turned away.

Just ask Bibbi the dog, she’ll confirm that I was in Malmö talking with Bibbi’s human about disability rights and SRHR! And that there was no cat in sight.

I haven’t wearing my keffiyeh in my day to day life recently (though I have at protests etc), but a while back some racists politicians complained about a parent wearing it while picking up her kids from school. And another went and called it a ”hipster swastika”.

Same people, same signs, same bullshit.

Just finished this book and it was so incredibly excellent that I had to post about it.
Brief summery: intersex youth in 90s Nigeria navigates family, culture, religion, first love, and trauma related to all of that.
It’s beautifully written and wonderfully immersive.

That’s great! Let me know how it goes if you do!
I usually have one sweater or cardigan going all the time, and then take breaks to work on other projects when I get impatient that it’s taking too long. 😅 Which is especially the case when you knit with this thin yarn and in size XXL…

What is your least favourite #food that you’ve actually eaten at least once? Your answer cannot be something you hate without ever having tried.🍽️
Surströmming (fermented herring)… Couldn’t do it even when I still ate fish.
