Today I’m driving to my dad to pick up his camper van. We are going on a trip with it the coming week.

Quite literally reaping what we’ve sowed, making mojitos out of the mint in the herb garden.

Yesterday Ebbe and me finished to Wind Temple in Tears of the Kingdom. In my opinion it was a really exciting dungeon, being just hard enough to be a challenge, while not impossible and it made me feel clever in the end.

Also since I really like flying with the glider the boss battle was amazing.

A recipe for a Tequila Sunrise cocktail

Fill a highball glass with ice and pour tequila and orange juice into it. Careful put the grenadine into the glass without stirring or shaking. The grenadine is ”the sunrise”.

As I searched the liquor cabinet the other day I realized that I had a surprising amount of tequila, so I decided to make Tequila Sunrise’s. They turned out really well.

Threads

posted this article on and tagged it with Handwritten Social Networks Threads

I wrote this headline in my notebook a few days ago, thinking that I should collect my thought on Threads under it. Up until now the page has remained empty. The thing is, the more I think about Threads the less I care about it.

Don’t get me wrong, if you’re on Threads and you are having a great time there then good for you. The same goes for having a good time on Instagram, TikTok or Twitter och Reddit or whatever. People having a good time on (or off) the internet is a good thing. I’m not here to say that Threads is meaningless or uninteresting on an objective level, just that it’s uninteresting to me.

According to the [Thread’s] own data privacy disclosure, Threads can collect information about a user’s health, finance, contacts, search history, location, and other sensitive information via their digital activity. The app can also forward data to third parties about a user’s sexual orientation, religious and political beliefs, race and ethnicity, body, and employment status.

This seems like a lot of data to collect for a text-based social network. Perhaps the fact that it’s not available in the EU at the moment is not necessarily a 100% bad thing? I mean, we constantly whine about the power that big corporations have and how blatantly they disregard the rights and privacy of us, their users.
