Finished reading: Gruppen by Sigge Eklund 📚
It was an OK read, no more, no less. Nothing that blew me away, but not a waste of time either. One of those in-between books you pick up, read, and then move on.

Bro, Sweden — surf’s up. 🏄♂️
Stockholm, Sweden — this tiny piece of street art made me stop and think. I guess it did its job.
Finished reading: The Night Stalker by Chris Carter 📚
Great read! Just as horrifying as the others in the series — which is exactly what I was hoping for.

Crazy story. Honest father. Awesome priest. ”You don’t have to kiss my ass to get a funeral mass.”
Watched: Companion (2025) 🍿
Picked it randomly, never heard of it before. Turned out surprisingly good. I actually enjoyed this one.
Watched: Final Destination Bloodlines (2025) 🍿
Not fantastic, but it delivers what it’s supposed to. Credit for all the creative kills. A bloody entertaining 110 minutes.
Finished reading: Wild and Crazy Guys by Nick de Semlyen 📚
The stories live up to the title. A crazy ride! Fun trivia and behind-the-scenes gems, but also tragedy. Comedy and tragedy often walk together. A great read!
Today the Pride parade took place here in Stockholm. I went with my mom, a tradition we’ve kept for years. Here are some photos:
Finished reading: Atomic Habits by James Clear 📚
Nah. Some good bits, but formulaic and uninspiring. More like a blog series than a book, though I get why the book clicks for many.
Finished reading: New Thinking by Dagogo Altraide 📚
An interesting read! It’s cool to see how much of today’s technology exists thanks to really old inventions. But the book was also a bit of a sad reminder of how often war and the military have driven innovation throughout history.
Finished reading: The Executioner by Chris Carter 📚
Yep, he’s done it again! Without a doubt the best series I’ve come across in the genre. Not for the faint-hearted, that’s for sure — but if you’re into dark crime, you’re gonna love this series.
Finished reading: Creativity, Inc. (The Expanded Edition) by Ed Catmull 📚
A great read! Packed with inspiring thoughts on creative work and plenty of fun Pixar trivia. Plus, some fascinating, more personal stories about Steve Jobs.
No likes, no stats, no problem
I really appreciate the new features available on this fresh little blog home of mine. I like how easy it is to create photo albums and track books. And I love that I can publish blog posts straight from my favorite text editor (iA Writer). I also appreciate not having some of the usual features. For instance, there’s no built-in analytics by default. Sure, you can use a third-party tool if you want to, but I’ve chosen not to.
Yay, I got my ”IndieWeb is Punk” T-shirt today! 😎 This awesome creation is a perfect example of what the… Continue reading ✍️
After the blogging honeymoon
With this new home for my blog, I’m still on the limited Micro.one $1/month plan. It’s a surprisingly generous setup, with neat features like book tracking and photo collections. Coming from Bear Blog — a wonderful platform in its own minimalistic “bear necessities” kind of way — this feels like a whole new world. Honestly, it’s a bit overwhelming, and very easy to get carried away. That’s exactly what I think has happened to me lately.
Finished reading: Battle Scars by Jason Fox 📚
An honest, interesting, and at times deeply unsettling read. It paints a raw and personal picture of one of the many terrible aftereffects war can leave behind — and the road back to recovery.
Finished reading: Studie i mänskligt beteende by Lena Andersson 📚
I really like her books! She has a fantastic ability to capture people’s quirks in a way that’s both hilarious and touching.
