Hey, your Malmö listener reporting: I have made the pilgrimage to the remains of LOVE Park. It's next to the Triangeln station in the city centre.
Additional info in alt text on images 3&4, please read!

Photo of a raised platform paved with granite tiles, with three short steps in an indent leading up. Many of the raised edges have clear signs of paint residue from skateboarding. An upturned garbage can has been moved next to a permanent skateboard ramp composed of the same granite tiles the area is paved with An informational poster mounted to a nearby bus stop. The title is partially cut off by the frame and reads "From LOVE Park to LOVE Malmö". The poster contains images of Triangeln's develolent, the original LOVE Park, and skating culture in Malmö in the 90s and early 00s. The body text is written in English and Swedish. The English text reads: "The development of the Triangeln area in Malmö is one of the most disputed decisions in the history of the city. Original plans included an elevated library and glassed-in bus terminal, but the plans were derailed after protests and political turmoil. The completed project imposed a 27 story hotel, shoppig [sic] centre and garage Rådmansvången area, distanced from the St Johannes church by a large parking-lot. As skateboarding grew in popularity in Sweden, the Triangeln area became a hub for Malmo's skateboarders. The St Johannos church, Triangeln parking lot and Triangel-square clustered a few decent spots into one part of the city. Crucially for cold winters, an underground garage offered smooth concrete floors and vents blowing warm air from the shopping contre above. The Triangeln garage provided a social space from which ideas could grow. With the ambition of building an indoor skatepark, Malmo's skateboardors found support to set up an organization and began lobbying the City of Malmö. After years of temporary projects, Bryggoriet Skatepark could open in 1998. Malmö's identity as a skateboarding city is less a rosult of its architocture, but more of the drive of the skateboarding community and support from the City. Through do-it-yourself projects, events, skateparks and skateboarding high-school, Malmö has developed a reputation as a skate-friendly city. Where cities around the world apply strategies to remove skateboording from urban life, Malmo has worked to include it. A poster mounted at a nearby bus stop. It features images and text in English and Swedish. The English text reads: "LOVE Malmö is a reconstruction of a section of LOVE Park, built according to the original plans. Part of the space is made up of original material from LOVE Park and part of Swedish granite. A renovated original lamppost frames the space and two original trash cans offer moveable obstacles"

out of curiosity, i wanted to check if google translate could detect or translate toki pona,,, firm no on that one, it seems
Screenshot from Google Translate: Upper half has text in toki pona, reading "mije li anpa pi nasin telo lon ma Lekosisi / open e tomo waso sin / A!" Above it, "Portuguese (Brazil)" is shown as the language detected. The translation at the bottom goes "I'll take a piss and I'll take it dor a while / A!"

I love the view from the ferry

Made a banger lunch today, happy I had the time to properly cook something

First post on Bluesky! It feels like a friendlier place. I like it here.
Here's a photo of mine!
An aerial photo of a 7/11 store surrounded by green leafy trees, taken in the evening. The lights in and outside the store are warm and bright, highlighting it in the middle of the photo. A small street visible on the right, while the perpendicular street is obscured by trees. There is a handsome grey Victorian house in the foreground, slightly out of focus.
