"Ich danke Ihnen, unseren Wählern, für das überwältigende Vertrauen gestern in Sachsen-Anhalt. Unser Traum-Ergebnis speist sich aus der extrem hohen Nichtwählermobilisierung."
Otto Hesselbom (1848 - 1913): Christmas Eve at the Grave, 1896.
This painting by Otto Hesselbom brings us to a Scandinavian winter in the 1890s. The artist has perfectly captured the moment immediately following the "blue hour"—just after sunset, as night begins to fall.
Let us focus on the figure and his surroundings. The man’s posture conveys a grief that is difficult to bear. At the head of the grave, we see a small, illuminated pine tree.
At the time this painting was created, cemeteries in Scandinavia were usually left unlit and merely covered with pine branches—quite unlike today. The custom of lighting candles (gravljus) was just beginning to take hold among wealthy urban families, influenced by the Catholic countries to the south. The artist has documented this cultural transition as well.
Runestone uncovered near Resmo Church in Kalmar, Sweden, carved between 400–1100 AD. Currently in the collection of the Swedish History Museum, Stockholm.
Blair is a disgrace.
The man dragged us into a pointless war based on lies. British soldiers, dead. Millions suffered.
I will never forgive him for it, and nor should you.
Involving Blair in any administration running Gaza is a shocking decision. Trump has got this wrong.
The UK Government is knowingly poisoning the public with fluoride. Legalised in 1985 under Margaret Thatcher. This was two years after Judge Lord Jauncey (Scotland) ruled that fluoride in drinking water is a medicine.
Joy Warren is taking legal action, since all other routes have failed. If the US can rethink fluoride, so can the UK.

Here’s a snapshot of our wonderful week in Sollerön, Sweden, the largest island in Lake Siljan, Dalarna. 🇸🇪
We undertook non-intrusive geophysical surveys to find out more about the island’s Viking Age past.
Be sure to follow along to see what the survey results reveal!
I am thrilled to announce Robert F. Kennedy Jr. as The United States Secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). For too long, Americans have been crushed by the industrial food complex and drug companies who have engaged in deception, misinformation, and disinformation when it comes to Public Health. The Safety and Health of all Americans is the most important role of any Administration, and HHS will play a big role in helping ensure that everybody will be protected from harmful chemicals, pollutants, pesticides, pharmaceutical products, and food additives that have contributed to the overwhelming Health Crisis in this Country. Mr. Kennedy will restore these Agencies to the traditions of Gold Standard Scientific Research, and beacons of Transparency, to end the Chronic Disease epidemic, and to Make America Great and Healthy Again!
“I think #fluoride is on the way out because that court decision, I think the faster that it goes out, the better. I’m not going to compel anybody to take it out, but I’m going to advise the water districts about their legal liability, their legal obligation to their service, to their constituents. And I’m going to give them good information about the science. And I think fluoride will disappear.” - @RobertKennedyJr on NBC News.
