My pick this week for #MusicMonday is Let Me Be Myself by 3 Doors Down.
It should be Bjorn's turn, and this shouldn't be the song I picked this month, but given the sad news over the weekend, it felt like the right thing to do. RIP Brad Arnold.

Fuck this timeline. Brad Arnold, lead singer and founder of 3 Doors Down is dead. At 47. WTF. Haven't been listening to their music in a while, but they were among those early bands that made me fall in love with rock. Not the news I wanted to read this week. Fucking hell.

It's that day of the year when I end up despising every form and shape of "thank you" both in Hungarian and English. I guess I could have worse problems on my birthday, so 🤷🏻♀️

Well, looks like I might have to go to court sometime this year. Probably sooner rather than later. Then again, this case has been going on for a while now, so... I wouldn't mind if it got closed already.

One of my main focuses in 2026 is to write a good chunk of my WIP, Inkfeather. Realistically speaking, my goal is to get 2/3rd done. That's parts 1 and 2, estimated to end up around 60K. I'll update this thread monthly, so keep tuned!
