My husband and I hiked from Stockholm to Tyresta National Park and camped overnight. We hiked further southwest today and then caught busses home because public transit here is amazing. Hike was tough, but glad we did it.

Not a single nurse at the Stockholm tick-borne encephalitis vaccine clinic was wearing a mask.

How many asymptomatic nurses are spreading COVID-19?

Who called it ‘mocktail’ and not ‘cocktease’?

Are door frames actually strong enough to support me doing pull-ups regularly from them?

Anytime I need to psych myself up to do something badass, I listen to the first 4 songs of @xtina’s “Lotus”.

No need for badassery from me today, but still feelin’ it.

Do I know a single macOS user who has personally encountered malware? I have used macOS since 2001 and worked at a university IT helpdesk. Not a single encounter.
