Chilly nights with several degrees Celsius below zero. But still, the calmness and the brightness of the moon and the stars brings a quite magic touch during these dark November days.

During Transgender Awareness Week and as part of the jubilee, Pope Leo XIV will today Sunday meet with a group of trans women including trans activist Alesia Nobile who was a close friend of late Pope Francis. A good way for the new pope to follow in his predecessor's footsteps. 🏳️‍⚧️🇻🇦

A brilliant day when over 200 represents of the green party came together for an event in Trollhättan to pick our front runner as regional leader for Västra Götaland Region in next year's regional election here in Sweden.

The delightful thing with the big family of Eurovision fans is that we all cherish this yearly event as much as we do. And it's always nice to watch wich songs other fans enjoy to listen to. Here's my #ESC250 vote for 2025.

Sunrise taken from the north towards south over Norra Kornsjön, a lake at the Swedish-Norwegian border between Swedish County Västra Götaland and Norwegian County Östfold. Sweden's on the left side (blue and yellow sky) 🇸🇪, Norway on the right side (blue and red sky) 🇳🇴.

Yet another day on my way to work. November's a gloomy month up here in West Sweden. 🌒 But still, it's only a month and a week left until it turns towards brighter days, once more. ☀️

The latest poll ahead of next year's Swedish election shows a majority for the left-green opposition (V, S, MP, C) while the smallest party of the center-right government (L) would lose all of their seats. Former nazi's, SD (marked in yellow), are still bigger than PM Kristersson's Moderate's (M).

Et tu, Brute?

Eight democrats seems to be weak as water, ready to sell out the American health care, giving their full support to the Republican budget. Shameful behavior.

Instead of plastics, some fruits and vegetables in Sweden are covered by a thin layer of rapeseed oil to prolong the freshness. That means your cucumber will be free of micro plastics but may have a tiny bit of rapeseed oil on it. A nice way to work against food waste in a more eco friendly way

The rebel flesh
🌕🌕🌕🌗🌑

⬆️ A good setup story wich benefits from not being judged together with part 2.

⬇️ The acting skills by some of the guest cast feels a bit un even.

A rewatchable episode? 🟨 It's a decent episode in its own, but then there's part 2...

Bloody Hell. The railroad to Hell is broken.
Literally.
The Norwegian town of Hell has been cut off for the third time since 2012 since the railway was destroyed by a landslide. This mean all trains between Östersund in Sweden and Trondheim in Norway has been cancelled for now. No Hell.

⬆️ We've known for ages that the Tardis is alive, but it was still interesting to see the blue box come alive in person

⬇️ Brilliant Elizabeth Berrington deserved a better DW role than Auntie

A rewatchable episode? ✅ Yes, an interesting story

S06E03
The Curse of the Black Spot
🌕🌕🌕🌑🌑

⬆️ Henry and Toby Avery really feels like father and son. Arthur Darwill show some great action skills as Rory

⬇️ The story feels quite dull and forgetful

A rewatchable episode? 🟨 IDK, It's part of a larger story arch, but a bit "meh"

Day of the moon
🌕🌕🌕🌕🌗

⬆️ Canton Everett Delaware III, played by Mark Sheppard. The faith of Amy. The conclusion, how they made the silence make a fatal mistake

⬇️ River's a bit too trigger happy

A rewatchable episode? ✅ Oh yes, this is an intriguing story

The latest poll before next years Swedish election looks good for the green-left opposition, while the government (M, KD & L) struggles to reach 25% of the support. Far right wing and former nazi party SD is slowly but steadily eating up PM Ulf Kristersson's liberal-conservative Moderate party.

A rewatchable episode? ✅ Mmm. It's a very good series opener. Intriguing.

On the train back home. The trans woman who's our journeys conductor seems to be a fan of my knitted retro cap, reminding of an old alpine ski tourist cap. I mean, it's only us Green parties who cares to do something about both the melting glaciers and for the trans community, isn't it?
