You might like it here. I'd recommend a town though, not a big city if you want the best swedish experience. But do visit as a tourist and feel "the vibe" first. :)

Oh I know you weren't being dead serious. I was just sort of making a general comment, beyond what you wrote. :)

I usually get these organic tampons from Natracare. Chlorine and perfume free. I tried the menstrual cup which is an even better option, but I simply can't get used to it. :/

Speaking as someone who came here as a refugee (from Bosnia), I think this is a good place, maybe even a GREAT place compared to some others, but definitely not free from discrimination and nationalism. Most often it's subtle and confusing. But overall I really like this country.

In Sweden, 12 Years a Slave is promoted with the original cover/poster and the title is not even translated into Swedish. Europe is not a country and "europeans" come in all shapes/colors/tastes/religions/opinions.....

Yes it's problematic in more than one way, imo. White Coat Waste project focuses on the waste aspect of the problem. (I follow their twitter feed, which I recommend. Quite informative.)

I understand that worms reproductive system + patriarchy = joke, but it's an odd one. What exactly is the joke? I really don't get it.

I remember that. I enjoyed her early music which really allowed her voice to shine. With a right song she sounds like a nightingale.

I'm appalled by all the snarky personal comments. It's bullying and it's never right. I have in the past disagreed with what he (and other Jezebel writers) has written, but managed to keep the subject of the article separate from the person who wrote it, whom I know nothing about. For some reason bullying this person…

I'm still looking forward to seeing Her. What I get from the trailer is an exploration of social isolation in modern age. The main character's choice to turn to AI to satisfy his emotional needs is represented as a mistake, not a solution to his problems. Of course everything she does and says is about him; she is not…

Maybe you and the OP can share a lengthier reflection in the comment section?

I understood that scene as if he (PM) misunderstood what he saw. I don't think it was clear to him that she was in fact being harassed. That moment when he enters the room and sees the two of them (standing close) is very short.

It's amazing how the word "witch" is still used against women.

These are from Hoodlamb. Down-free, fur-free and eco-friendly, made of hemp, organic cotton and recycled materials. They also carry a collection for men. And they support Sea Shepherd.

I love that photo so much. And I adore cows. They're such gentle creatures, and can be so playful and funny. :)

Farm Sanctuary is amazing. Another sanctuary that I really like is Peaceful Prairie Sanctuary. Besides doing amazing work, they have beautifully written animal stories on their website. I get their newsletter because I love reading them. I strongly recommend their website to anyone who'd like to read more about animal…

You're welcome. They always announce sales in a newsletter, but you won't get many annoying emails.

They have big sales (about 50% off) once a year at least. Subscribe to their newsletter if you really like something.

Ha! Virgo here.

Then what was the point of the meeting?!
