Feb 24 - happy birthday Estonia, stay strong Ukraine! Since 24.2.2022 these two flags stand side-by-side, together with all forces for democracy, against dictators and terror! Independence and freedom are our greatest values, but they are not self-evident.

It's in the air, with more than 80 participants! 💫 @cost-teatime.bsky.social @thebehaviourforum.bsky.social @dhuzard.bsky.social @marionrivalan.bsky.social @neurodaniela.bsky.social @lamylab.bsky.social

Runeberg's Day is celebrated annually on 5 February, the day when national poet of Finland was born (in 1804). A pastry flavored with almonds and with raspberry jam encircled by a ring of icing on top, called Runeberg torte, is available everywhere, but best when home-made 😋

Apparently, the interviews were done more than a year ago (disclosing that I'm still more active in X... but happy to explore other spaces, eg this one - now when I received code after waiting two months)
