Aftonbladet's interview with Greta Thunberg is now available in English - it raises many serious questions, not least about the Swedish govt. effectively abandoning its citizens to torture because it doesn't agree with their politics. A thundering disgrace.

No that’s exactly it, once they were finished rolling back even many of the symbolic powers they stopped caring and with the royal family broadest popular there is little chance they will start to.

Nu är jag inte heller någon fotbollsmänniska men herrlandslaget har Kubakritiska varit dåligt? Hela mitt liv har det vart och varannat år varit chockrubriker när de åker ut eller misslyckas med att kvalificera sig för nån turnering. Det kanske inte är tränaren som är grundproblemet.

If anyone needs me I will be in the museum, lying down next to the bog bodies.

Did people really memorize phone numbers before cell phones, or is that just a movie thing?
2? Questions
I was watching some old shows from the 90s and noticed people would just dial numbers from memory - like they'd call their friends or family without looking anything up.
Made me wonder if that was actually normal back then? Did people genuinely have all their important numbers memorized, or did most folks keep a little address book or written list nearby?

Excuse the quick and dirty scans, but if you can get your hands on the magazine, you'll be treated not only to Plum's 1/32 Shira-DOW kit dolled up to the nines, but scratch-built Republic aircraft and more. The 1/700 scale scratch-built Prince of Minadan carrier is especially sumptuous.
