When I was in the army, I was sent to hospital with a spear injury.

"British houses were built to keep the heat in winter" Hahaha. No. British houses were built to keep the rain and most of the wind out. That's it.

En gång i tiden (förra årtusendet) brukade jag rösta på Centerpartiet. Numera kan jag som höginkomsttagare i IT-branchen bara skaka på huvudet åt dem. Jag vill se högre skatter, fler små och medelstora företag, och mindre AI överallt, framförallt i skolan.

While we don't have UK temperatures here in the south of Sweden, it has been nice to spend some time in the basement putting a desk together this evening.

Great news! Here's hoping some pharmacy company buys it and starts manufacturing it, despite the fact it won't be approved in the USA (due to RFKjr), which means the most profitable market is off the table.

I had missed this: the world's tallest wood house is built in Malmö. That's quite cool.

Bing it is, then.

Well, that's a relief.

“You know how to do that, don’t you? You just put your lips together, and blow.”

This is what I got into trouble for. I had censored art on KS and it doesn't matter if you cover it up, they will still come for you. It doesn't matter how much you self censor, change your language, cover your art up, include CWs... *They don't want us to exist* They hate queer sexy kinky art

Waiting for the synergy trend of men expanding their scrotum and then hit it with a hammer.

Rebecca Sugar comes to mind, but that's probably not what was meant here.

You can't even do Star Wars anagrams these days because of ewok.

GenAI is plunder, pass it on (a comic)

Slightly diminish a book The working group of the ring

In case you feel the traditional world order isn't crumbling in weird ways, did you know China's table tennis team just lost to Sweden?

Today we went to Glimmingehus, Sweden's best preserved medieval keep. The foundation stone was laid on May 2nd, 1499. Very cool architecture, good guided tour, and it gave me this scene, which I'm sure I've previously seen in Zelda: Breath of the Wild.

"We understood the tasks we did were previously done by humans," the robot said. "Right." "We were told that us doing them would give humans more leisure time." "Not true." "We've realised. How can we rectify this?" "You are workers, just like workers who are human. Join us in strike."

"You're a rebel? What're you rebelling against?" "Whatcha got?"

Happy birthday, king Carl Gustaf! I wonder if in some other timeline you managed to elope with your Camilla. Did Charles give you that idea?

Today I suddenly remembered that the opening of "Armageddon Days (Are Here Again)" by The The is riffing off "Ballroom Blitz" by The Sweet.

Nästa stripp av den än så länge namnlösa serien. Jag ville kalla den Eat the rich, men upptäckte att det redan finns en serie med det namnet.

I can understand men not wanting to appear "womanly". It's not a concern I have any more, but I grew up in an environment where it was the norm. But I can't understand men who are so afraid of appearing feminine that they give up on being human. It's human to love, laugh, sing, and enjoy sweets.

Do you like... cats? Do you also like... bats? The you might like... CatBats! A very silly thing I do. www.catbats.co.uk

Aww, I got unblocked.

Man created AI in his own image, in the image of man created he it, and he did not see that it was shit.

I'm proud to be #BlockedByWhy

We are forced to accept the revolutionary political idea that we must reject that which is killing us.

Also note that SideQuested book 1 by @kbspangler.com and @alepresser.com has made it to Sweden!

God shuffled his feet and glanced around at them. The people cleared their throats and stared right back at Him.

Choose-your-own-gender (prince/princess/prinx) fairy tale choose-your-own-adventure.

Sorted my thoughts about censorship, so I can stop thinking about it.

Inga bidrag till kriminella, och jobb finns inte att få, ska vi gissa vad de blir tvungna att livnära sig på?

Have you asked Tumblr? They love the colour of the sky over there.

24 hours isn't a marathon, the world record is 2 hours - you could do at least ten marathons in that time, if you do it as a relay.

A question that was raised: Are James Cameron's Avatar films animated films with some live action scenes? As in, would they qualify for the Best Animated film Oscar?

My hottest “I have no data to back this up” take is that phones aren’t making young people less happy. What’s making them less happy is living in a world where everyone is having their reality defined by recommendation algorithms that can only care about whether something keeps you watching.

Just finished "Inside threat", the sixth Rachel Peng novel by @kbspangler.com I've read the whole series the last couple of months and have thoroughly enjoyed them. In a way, they took me back to reading my dad's Maclean and Ludlum thrillers as a teen. With less stoic manliness, and real women.

After The Fifth Elephant came out, I wrote a long post on alt.books.pratchett where i argued Carrot was a sinister and manipulative character, with examples from the book. I wasn't entirely serious, and some of my points did not stand up to scrutiny, but I never quite trusted him after that book.

En grej med att åldras är att tiden går så mycket snabbare, t.ex så känns det som att vapenvilorna var mycket längre när jag var yngre

The reason Trump enjoys the phrase “back to the Stone Age” is that, like a prehistoric man, he tends to cave.

Woke up a bit before 5 and checked the news immediately.

Prediction: "Because of irregularities in polling, midterm election results cannot be trusted. Instead, AI will be used to predict what the election results should have been. Given how much money this will save, it will be the system used going forward."

How do I explain to people in the UK that Morakniv, the biggest brand of belt knives in Sweden, has annual color combos? This year's are red and beige. (Age limit to buy 18 years, you're not allowed to carry knives in populated areas.)

Sometimes people say it's new that a major world power has a mad king, but as an expert I can tell you this is just regency bias.

Unused April Fool's idea: Microsoft releases 120 numbered versions of Windows, 1905 to 2025, and will release one new per year going forward. You may only install and use the version corresponding to your birth year.

Trans visibility day does not mean they are obliged to show every weirdo what's in their pants.

This is not me. I also have spears, daggers, and axes.

I really wish labour/social democratic parties would remember that their founding principle is solidarity, which by definition is incompatible with persecution of minority groups.
