We're not gonna take it
Temperature: Plummeting after double digits close to 20 °C/68 °F, and do you know how rare that is, in October, in Scandinavia? Getting more common by the year. (One of our neighbors is a dedicated gardener and has been keeping record of the weather for 30+ years. He said he has seen a major shift in the past ten years: winters are getting shorter and warmer.)
Eating: Salmon soup + Finnish rye bread, sooo good and a lunch favorite.
Drinking: Seriously eyeing that GlΓΌhwein from Tallinn. Just to ward off the cold, of course.
Watching: My son giving me the Paddington hard stare. "Are you going to fix this [climate change]?" Working on it, sweetie, I swear. Hard to make headway in this WIIFM climate.
Listening: To a lot of conversation and compromise when the time for half-assed half measures has passed. [Re: climate change]
Reading: Misogynation: The True Scale of Sexism by Laura Bates. Have questions regarding everyday sexism, the gender pay gap and/or inequality of the sexes? Have doubts about their existence? Feeling kinda certain feminism is an overreaction? Please read this book. From start to finish.
Thinking: You look drained. Yes, you. Are you? If so, please promise to get some rest over the holiday season. At the latest! Please? For me? But especially for your own sake.
Feeling: Like a White Queen courtier, asked to imagine as many as six impossible things before breakfast. How much BS are we supposed to digest on a daily basis from elected and self-appointed leaders alike?
