Watched: Kate Bush: The Timeless Genius 🍿

Interesting documentary about an even more interesting, fascinating, and fantastic artist.

Great movie! It almost feels like a documentary. I’m guessing some of the crew weren’t even actors. One of Tom Hanks’ best performances ever.

Watched: Mayor of Kingstown Season 4 📺

One of my favorite shows. Every season is great, no episode a filler.

Listening to Lucky Again by Lykke Li from The Afterparty 🎵

Love this new single by one of my favorite Swedish artists, and her track ”I Follow Rivers” is still one of my all-time favorite songs.

This statue by Swedish artist Mats Wikström made me stop while walking by the water in Nacka today. The title, translated into English, is “Long live the fight for a reasonably free Norrland.”

xz/fonts was new to me. Nice alternative. I’ve added it to the fonts section on the Blogger’s toolbox page.

Watched: Armadillo 🍿

A great Danish documentary, though not exactly uplifting, especially given the state of the world right now. War will never make sense.

Watched: The Nun – 25 years in a convent. Interesting follow-up. Fascinating to see that, 25 years later, she still has that calm, honest conviction and dedication. 🍿

Finished reading: An Evil Mind by Chris Carter. Even though this was my least favorite in the series so far, it’s still a solid 4/5. Many more to go. 📚

I spotted this cool record store while I was at work today. I love that there are still places like this around. Sometimes the perseverance of the past gives hope for the future.

My list of widgets for Bear Blog is growing. The latest additions include Letterboxd, Hardcover, and Crucial Tracks. Happy blogging!

Currently reading widget - a simple HTML and CSS card for showing the book you’re reading, who wrote it, and a progress bar.

This was the last photo I shot during my recent visit to Chiang Mai, Thailand. I think it’s a good fit for #SilentSunday 📸🇹🇭

Watched: Marty Supreme 🍿

Not my kind of movie. Too much shouting and screaming, and I didn’t find the story very interesting.

Thu, 05 Mar 2026 22:22:21 +0100

Watched: Snake Killer Season 1 📺

Terrible title, but I liked it, as with most Danish crime shows and movies. I have a feeling there will be a second season, and I also have a feeling that it will be less of a low-budget production.

Richest blogger in the cemetery - a few words on my (current) view when it comes to blogging and coffee buttons.

Tue, 03 Mar 2026 19:33:58 +0100

The Pixel Bear theme is my latest creation for Bear blog. A retro-inspired theme with a bunch of geeky details.

I finally got around to updating my Blogger’s toolbox page. It now contains 237 links (but who’s counting?) with everything from web accessibility to CSS shapes and beyond. Hope you find it useful. 🧑‍💻

Two kinds of machines I’ve seen on the streets of Chiang Mai and nowhere else: a helmet cleaner and an emergency button. The “don’t push the button” battle felt like a Muay Thai fight. 😊

I passed this vintage workshop while walking the streets of Chiang Mai, and snapped a shot. It almost feels like cheating to take photos of old stuff. It always looks so cool 😎

I walked in and ordered a cappuccino. The barista replied, “Here’s what I found on the web for cupcake chinos.”

Sun, 15 Feb 2026 14:15:40 +0100

People busy on their phones while a blind girl is trying to get by. I’m not saying I’m Mr. Perfect. It could just as well have been me absorbed in my phone. It just feels sad when the contrast becomes so clear.

I just added a library of CSS styles to my other blog. Even though they’re made for Bear, you might still find some inspiration no matter what blogging platform you’re using.

Finished reading: Råttkungen by Pascal Engman. I enjoyed it even more than the first book, much because the story is set in my neighborhood. 📚

The bouncer wouldn’t let me in, but it all worked out when I said, “This isn’t the drunk you’re looking for.”
