Good Morning

Political Position

I thought it wise to inform you about my political position, so I took a test here.

Please bare in mind it is an American test, which seems to immensely exaggerate my "leftism" and liberitarianism.

I would expect most Swedes, with the exception of Christian Democrats and Swedish Democrats, to end up somewhere in the green.

More Hate



The great blog "Joe. My. God." pointed me to this hate-ad from NOM. They seem to object to "San Fransisco Values" and judge Vaughn R. Walker. I wonder which is worst to these hatmongers, being overrun by Muslims or by Gays and Lesbians?

Could someone PLEASE explain to me why allowing gay & lesbian marriages threathens straight marriages and "the family"?

I admit to being a total idiot, but I don´t understand the arguments.

Demonizing Muslims

Demonizing Muslims is a strong movement in the Western Hemisphere that totally makes me sick to my heart. Islamophobia seems to stick its ugly head up everywhere.

As my father worked abroad when I was growing up my family spent eleven of my first twelve years among muslims and let me tell you;
Muslims are not demons.
Muslims are not terrorists.
Muslims are not seeking world domination.
Muslims are kind and considerate.
Muslims love their children.
Muslims want to live in peace.

Just as among us Swedes, the Americans, the Dutch or the Germans or any other group of people there are sickos, weirdos and fools among the Libyans, the Lebanese, the Iraqi or the Iranians. They are not, have never been and will never become a majority.

The Swedish Democratic Party (the Swedish Nazi Party according to me) have tried hard to clean up their act in the hope of getting seats in the Swedish parliament in the upcoming national elections on September 19th, 2010. The polished mask slips in their election movie and they show their true face!

Hate is never the answer!

Philip Linden 2.0

Oooooooooo I almost missed this...

As my favorite interim CEO Philip Linden promised in his keynote speech at SLCC 2010 he is now inviting us all to take part in updating his avatar and to create a new iconic look for him.

This project has been loooooooooooong overdue, read all about it on the Second Life Blog and send in your contributions. The poor man needs our help urgently.

Akon - Lonely

Feeling tired and missing Ars, so this is all you get today! No big deal, my friends, just moody.

Emeraldgate - some trust restored

I have just finished watching  "Tonight Live with Paisley Beebe".

About 34 minutes into the show there is a very good and long interview with Arabella Steadham and Jessica Lyon of the new and regrouped Emerald-team.

What I heard Arabella and Jessica say have restored some of my trust in the development team behind the Emerald-viewer, so I am now uninstalling and reinstalling the cleaned up version from the new Emerald Viewer site. I will be following future developments closely though.

Big thanks to my friend Suteruni for directing my attention to this show.
