The one mandatory coalition partner is the Greens, who I would be almost as happy to vote for as the Former Commies. 👍

The current poll figures mean that Sweden's biggest party, the Social Democrats, will only need two coalition partners. They can choose between the Libertarian Farmers and my party, the Former Commies, who get along very badly. I hope for a Leftie government, but I'm not optimistic.

After all, leaving the Former Commies out of the government will create a fatally divided opposition that can do absolutely nothing for four years. And M. Andersson is no real Socialist.

Today is 70 days until Swedish citizens vote out the useless, Fascist-controlled Kristersson government. The opposition is almost ten percentile units ahead of the governmental coalition in the Novus poll. Finally we will be able to move on!

The Fascists will drop a little for the first time since they entered parliament. The "Liberals" that formed a government dependent on a Fascist veto will be kicked out entirely.

After my first week on the short fieldwork job, I can report that I get along super well with the two guys who make up the company as well as with our highly skilled excavator operator.

Also I love our intricate historical hamlet site and enjoy my tasks, so far mainly metal detecting and digging 1 sqm test pits to establish the depth and complexity of the stratification.

It's not a professorial chair, but I'm #happy!

Tech school daughter on the CEO programme has taken the environmental engineering track instead of the less demanding IT track! ❤️❤️❤️

The main door into 900 yr old Haddon Hall and approximately 500 years old itself. This may be one of my all time favourite old doors. I love how weather worn it is, and how it sits in such a shonky corner of the castle courtyard.

Has your grocery store run out of cucumbers? Don't worry, just buy Swedish strawberries instead! Nobody will notice any difference in taste! 🙄

Phedimus hybridus, the Siberian Stonecrop, Sw. sibiriskt fetblad, was put on the Swedish invasive species list a few weeks ago. And now I find it for the first time at the summer house! Welcome, pretty stranger!

Reading an odd 2010s PhD thesis on a subject close to archaeology. The work and the results are to my mind game-changingly solid, creating a whole new foundation for its field. But the fellow seems dyslexic and has had no proofreader. The textual quality is just embarrassing. And then finally, the physical production qualities of the book are quite high-end! Bizarre combination.
