Which, of course, is in turn a reference to that Mary.
But using a reference that ultimately points at the bible in no way means it has to be religious in a culture & language that's been steeped in that religion for over a thousand years. That would be like saying everyone named "Christian" or "Jesus" is named specifically because the parents were very religious, which obviously isn't so.

Dricker själv oftast utan mjölk (kan ha i när det är enkelt svart te), men jo det är så jag tänkte. Vilket är lätt gjort när man brygger i tekanna, men om man tar hett vatten i mugg och har tepåse i, då skulle man behöva gå tillbaka 5 min senare för att ha på sin skvätt mjöl. Inte praktiskt.

Up over here, masking was only required even on the subway for like a month or two. (And wow, it was spacious even in rush hour)
So masking never really was big here, except in healthcare.
I never got into the habit, really.
And I don't question at all if someone is wearing a mask. It shows concern for your fellow human beings. It still, and always will, show a care for not just your own health but very much so for that of others.

A couple of ideas the monarch could do if they wanted to:
* rent to the NHS, army, etc, at cost. No money made and cheaper for the taxpayers.
* donate the profits made on these properties to eg NHS & education.
To not do so is a choice made.

På väg hem efter promenad på stan med dotter efter handbollsträning som inte var.
(Även tränarna trodde det var träning, men nej, hela skolan var stängd och släckt inklusive idrottssalen)

Always loved that there was a Buddha statue found here from way back then :)

oooh. This makes my list of policies I'd make law if voted planetary governor: workers get first dibs to create a worker cooperative if they want before vulture capitalists can have a go.

När jag upptäckte att glömt åkkortet hemma när vi redan var på busshållplatsen var det stresspåslag. Klockan var redan 07:50, typ. få med 7åring som blev trött i benen halvvägs av 300 meter rusning fram & tillbaka, inte kul. Sen full buss.
lämna liiite efter samling start.
Men efter det: smidigt utan väntetider på buss & tbana.
kass start, smidigt och i tid på slutet.
Känns lite som man kunde göra barnbok på det.
