Seeing Republicans try to justify why Greenland is important. Sheeshush. Yeah, maybe it’s important to world peace. The thing is, America has publically repeatedly threatened Denmark with military force. Russia has not. From our point of view, we need protection against America. Maybe we should strike a deal with Russia, let them have some military bases on Greenland. You know. Like America has.
No matter how important Greenland is, you don’t have the right to just take it. How does that make you better than, any other warmongering country throughout history. What would fkn Jesus say?
Alright alright, i’ll shut up now. I know it’s dumb to get worked up about this stuff, but it gets the blood boiling to see people who pretend to be about christianity and law and order and ethics and integrity being so completely morally bankrupt, they look like a Trump casino.
Ok ok. Shutting up time, Ima do it to it.

Good goat times today. A beautiful spring day. Cold wind in the morning, but lots of sunshine. The dark of winter is over and the daylight is saving us.
Lots of lounging around with the goaties. Snoreypants. I sat with Sky for a while in the sunshine, locking the gate between the pens so we could have some alone time. Did I mention that Jeanette has put a second latch on the gate with a padlock? So now I can lock it well enough that Bella can’t break it open, not for lack of trying. But I had time for all of them of course.
And we had some nice visitors, kids coming in to pet and feed the goats. Jeanette back from being sick, and the feathers out a flapping. The newbies are learning to be careful around Bella and Luna, who will sometimes try to knock them away if they get too close. The three reds are hanging around the goats a lot, the two whites are a little more standoffish.
A lovely springtime day, and now I’m going to top it up with some soup.

I used to think the dystopian future would be people selling their bodyparts to survive, but now I’m thinking maybe they’ll just sell their votes.
I still don’t understand how it can legal to just offer up money to voters. I mean obviously money has always been a major part of it all, it always seems to be almost the most important paramter, who can fundraise the most. “We need this much money to have a chance to win this seat/office/position”. But that it’s legal for billionaires to just hand out money to people who vote, I don’t get it. Why would the rich want inflation to go away, the poorer the populace is the more they can be controlled with. Next time they’ll probably hand out eggs to people who vote.
The huddled masses clapping their hands like trained seals while the billionaires throw out fish tails to them.
The world makes me sick. And tired. I have never been happier to be finite.

Got an hour forty five on the bike today. Flapping away. And then some more apartment cleaning. Dove into some shelves that have barely been touched for a decade, at least the back of them. Found another old hard drive, nothing interesting on it unfortunately. Also stacks of old driver CDs and manuals for motherboards and graphic cards from old coputer. Also found my old minidisc player/recoder. Kids, minidiscs are like a CD but small. And CDs are like a piece of toast that has music on it. And music is that thing we used to have before autotune *yells at clouds*
Anyway, found my old concert recordings. There was a time, a long time ago, when i actually went to some concerts. Like 10-15? Before the blindness, when the lure of live music got me to fight the anxiety and go outside. i have always loved listening to concert recordings, so i made some myself. I am not even sure if i can transfer them to my PC. There’s a USB cable in the box, but i’m not even sure if any of it works or what software might be needed etc. I’m going to try to hook the player up to my pc and see if I can transfer the files from the discs. But I’m not going to spend more time than that on it. If I can’t just straight up copy the files from the discs to the pc, then I’m just going to throw it all out. I’m glad I got to go to some concert in my life, but i want to lighten my load and not hang on to so many things, so if I have to get rid of those recordings I am okay with that. It would be fun to have them on the pc, but it’s a bygone era and I’m ok letting it go.
Most of the concerts were with my old classmate Tina Dickow (stop sniggering), who was featured in several American tv shows and movies. And was leadsinger of the band Zero 7 for a while. She’s still doing music, and i’m still a fan, although not as much as in the old days.
Just nice to be clearing out stuff.

Some Lasse distraction.
Watched the two last episodes of Common Side Effects. Great show. If you like mystery scifi-ish animation, I verily recommend. It’s cool and beautiful at times.
Watched the two first episodes of The Studio. Loved it. I have always liked Seth Rogen, and he’s great in this. Really funny so far. Honestly the Martin Scorsese kool-aid thing was kind of genius. Looking forward to more of this.
Listening to the Labyrinth soundtrack has made me want to watch the movie again. And I realised I don’t think I have watched the movie with the commentary on, so I think I might do that soon.
Getting close to the end of reading Christine. Fun enough read, although the premise is a little hard to take seriously. But not a bad read.
Temperatures are rising, spring is getting going. It’s almost t-shirt weather and this year I’m starting the season in a lot better shape than last year. Hope we’ll have some good times even if the goat situation has become more complicated because of the hierarchy

Good goat times today. Bloody gorgeous day. Lots of sun and upwards of 16C/60F. For Denmark that’s, well that’s almst summer. Warmest day of the year so far, and great spring feeling. So nice.
Jeanette had vacation today, so it was just me. And a bunch of visitors enjoying the lovely weather. The usual kids from the neighbour schpol. Didn’t see Beren today, but several other of the regular kids, coming in and spending time with the goats.
The two nice teacher ladies who are always kind to me were there too. One of them had baked some kind of chocolate bread. I was told it was healthy but I still declined when they offered me some. I thanked them but I’m kind of fasting during the first 3/4ths of the day, for a little longer now.
And when the goats weren’t entertaining the visitors or doing goofy things, there was just lots of sitting around in the sun. Spent some good time sitting with each. I especially love scraching Sky’s belly, that fur so warm in the sunshine.
I think it will be cooling down again now, but it was nice to get a taste of real spring. Hope we get more of that soon.
Got home and did an hour on the exercise bike. Excellent result on the scales, I’m aaalmost there, close to the target.
Now I’m going to break fast with soup.

I DECLARE VICTORY!
Got an hour fifty on the bike today. And afterwards I got on the scales and I’m back at my record low weight that I achieved last year. It took some time, but I got back there.
I have talked about how I gained weight over the christmas holidays and the January hellscape. But I didn’t say how much I gained. Now that I have lost it again, I feel comfortable saying that I actually gained 20 pounds during that time. Now, keep in mind I lost 50 pounds before that, so I was still in an okay place. But it obviously wasn’t good, and there was a certain fear that “am I going to put it all back on, can I not stop the downwards spiral?”. So I am happy and proud that I turned it around and lost the weight again. In a way you could say that I have lost 70 pounds now. Just, also gaining 20 in the middle.
But it’s good to be back. And in better shape too. It’s frustrating that it’s so easy to put on all that weight, and so much work to lose it again. But I have done it more responsibly this time. Last year during the big weight loss I was borderline starving myself at times. Not completely to a dangerous level, but I went pretty hardcore. Especially because I was completely neglecting protein, I was definitely not getting enough protein for a large stretch there. This time I have been much more cognisant of that challenge. Much more aware of how much I need and how to get it. Last year for many months I didn’t eat bread at all. This time i have eaten bread. Danish rugbrød. Rye bread. I think that’s a lot healthier than white bread, and in Denmark it’s just a stable part of our lifestyle. And I have been eating protein skyr and pudding, and lately just staight up protein powder. So not only have I lost the weight again, but I have added muscle. Which I believe is especially important for a diabetic, to help process the sugar. And keep metabolism going. And stuff.
In any case I am really happy with the result. Last summer I was a work in progress, this time I’ll be going into the summer pretty much a done deal.
I still plan to go for another couple of weeks to see if I can lose some more weight, make a bigger buffer. I know when relax the diet I’ll probably gain weight again. But this time hopefully I will be able to control it better and not gain so much. I would also like to relax the exercising a little bit, focus more on goating. Once a week I have been doing exercising after a goat trip, and that’s tough. I’d rather spend the extra time with the goats. In the sunshine. And getting the natural exercise of just moving around, walking there and back, chasing goats and chickens. That’s my hope.
Really looking forward to having some pizza again. in a week or two.
Also got some more apartment cleaning done after the exercise. Digging into some more ancient cupboards that have been untouched for a decade. Old boxes and cables of tech stuff that’s no longer relevant. A wireless keyboard. Hah. I think it must have come with one of our old computer, like 2 or 3 generations back. I have always hated wireless stuff, so I never used it. And it’s also just a regular keyboard, not a high contrast one like the ones I use today. Feels good to get rid of the pounds and of the old junk from the past weighting me down.
And now it’s soup time. I earned that. And that shall remain the stablest part of my diet.

Dollarstore Willy Wanker going to put golden immigration tickets in McDonalds burgers soon, I wonder?
I’m not going to say I know a lot about the gold card thing, maybe it’s no worse than what’s already there, it’s not like being rich giving you an advantage is a new thing. Maybe this is just fine, maybe it’ll be great for the US economy and bring in people that will embiggen society.
But the optics are just soo.. on the nose. Cutting aid around the world, letting all the poor people suffer and deporting everyone who doesn’t look whiter than the new Snow White, while the rich can buy their way into the country and on the fasttrack to citizenship. Exactly what you’d expect from a country run by cryptobro grifter golf kart terrrorists. Swing that chainsaw and decapitate the humanity and empathy.
As always I can’t help wondering what Jesus would say. Let me see your bank account before I decide if I’m going to help you. Give us your tired, your poor, your huddled masses, so we can ship them off to El Salvador and have room for the rich fatcats and nepobabys yearning to breathe free of the covid masks.

Okay, normally I would never post a picture like this. I am under no illusion that this is impressive or anything, her me later and understand me now, I am no Arnie. I have always hated myself, and even on victory day with the weight loss I still feel fat and ugly and always will.
That being said, I think it’s pretty funny that LOOK I HAVE A MUSCLE. I’m pretty sure there’s at least one on theo ther side too!
Haha. Actually getting enough protein has helped. I remember when I had my bad fall some years ago and had to go to physical therapy, the physio (the one who mainly wanted to do acupunture and didn’t really help me much) said that one thing to work on was muscles, because I really didn’t have anything to work with. Which took me a little aback, because well I hadn’t really thoughto f that. I have always had skinny arms, even when I was much larger I still had arms so skinny they looked unhealthy really. But I never really thought about how I didn’t have much muscle.
I still don’t have that much, but it’s just kind of funny to be able to feel some muscle when you flex.
I kind of wish i could go to the gym and do some real weight lifting, not because I want to be super jacked, but that’s supposed to be really good for your back. But with my blindness and anxiety that’s just not something I feel up to. I have my dumbbells and rods that I use, and that will have to do. It’s better than nothing. And I am really pleased that I have been able to lose all the weight again while also adding muscle. That has been a success.
Now I promise to not post another picture of myself without goats for the next eleventy months
Pump, it up!

Good goat times today. The lovely weather continues. A bit cold and cloudy in the morning, but the sun came out well and we got up above 10C/50F and it was good.
The feathers joined outside again, it’s so nice to have them squawking around. Red Sonja seeking me out, hoping for treats. And the nice weather brought several groups of visitors. Kids feeding the goats and coming into the pen to pet them.
Just a good oldfashioned goat day, and now I’m going to top it off with soup, there it is.

Had my half yearly checkup at the eye doc today. I was a little nervous about it, because I feel like my vision has gotten worse again. And becaus my eye doc’s office has moved. So there was the anxiety of going to a new place. But it turns out the new place is much more accessible to. Just the fact that I don’t have to take an elevator to get to the office, that’s nice. And there’s a bus line pretty much straight from my house to their office, and now it’s no longer in central Århus with all the traffic and people. All in all this change seems like a good change, for me.
And my eyesight, well doc said it hasn’t gotten worse, in fact it was a little better than last time. And the general eye health is still stable and expected to remain so for the foresee (heehee) able future.
So that was all pretty good. Got home and did an hour and a half on the exercise bike. Flapping on.
25/3 2025

.
After the eye doc visit and the exercise, I did some more cleaning. Although this time less cleaning, more… window blocking. One of the reason I think I felt my eyesight had gotten worse is because the sun is shining more and more. It affects my eyesight. i’ve been thinking about blocking my windows to keep the sun out. I have curtains up of course, but when the sun blasts on my windows, it gets harder and harder to see.
I have some old blanket things, and today I put one up in front of one of my windows. I have 3 windows, one single and one double. Iput up the blanket to cover about 3/4ths of the double window. I have more blankets i can cover the other parts with, but I figure I’ll see how this works out first.
Many years ago i had my windows blocked off like this, for the same reason. I remember taking the blocking sheets down and being really happy to have sunshine back in my apartment. It’s kind of a double edged swords. Aren’t all swords double edged? Anyway. I do like to have the apartment lighter and feel the sun. But if it wrecks my eyesight is it worth it? I also worry if it will make my apartment colder, because I am sensitive to the cold.
But yeah, i’ll see how it goes with this blockage up. Maybe I’ll block off the rest of the windows later. Or maybe this is enough, the window parts that are blocked now are kind of pointing at my place where I sit at the computer, so having that part blocked off may be enough to help me.
Bla bla bla, tldr I hung up a sheet to cover part of my window.
I’ll report back on how it works for me. Today was grey and rainy, need a sunny day to see how it feels.
And i’ll just have to get my sunlight when I’m outside with the goats.

If you’re mad at Disney for making Snow White not white enough because in the original fairy tale she got the name because of her white skin, well I hope you’re mad about all the other changes Disney made when they adapted the fairy tale. I haven’t read the original fairy tale, but my understanding is that if Disney had made an adaptation that was true to their original, well it probably wouldn’t have made a great cartoon for kids. This new movie isn’t an adaptation of the fairy tale, it’s a live action version of their own cartoon.
Of all the things to be angry or upset about in this day and age, jesus forking christ. Humans are so stupid.
If you need Disney princesses to be super white, maybe don’t watch Disney movies anymore. The black mermaid should have tipped you off.
And i’m not rooting for the movie. All these live action versions of their cartoons, to me it’s just milking the IPs, reboots and remakes, I hate all that stuff. i’d be happy if, as it seems, the movie tanks. But if it thanks because SnOw WhItE LiVeS MaTtEr then fork right off. The world’s on fire, put down the gasoline can.

Just a relaxing day today. Don’t ask, don’t do. Headspace not feeling so greatspace, but what can you do space. Insert clip of Tim Curry saying SPACE.
I wathed Heretic. Another one I watched because the movie podcast I like was going to cover it. I loved the movie. Hugh Grant was brilliant. I don’t actually watch a lot of horror, not in movie form. But yeah I really enjoyed it. And worth watching for Hugh Grant. Worth it just for him making a completely wrong Jar Jar Binks impression.
I also watched Cleaner. Mostly because of Daisy Ridley. Star Wars princeses etc etc. It’s kind of a Die Hard lite, but I wasn’t bored. Had some fun ideas, and also some dumb clichéed ones. Fun enough.
Alright that’s enough text to pass for an entry.

Aw. Rest in peace Kjeld Nørgaard. He was the voice of the puppet frog Kaj (which is also my dad’s name). The children’s TV with him and the parrot Andrea was everything for kids of my age. If you grew up in the I guess 70s and 80s? Then you knew Kaj & Andrea. And you probably loved them. Back when there was one TV channel and børneTV was mandatory. It’s like Sesame Street levels, As big as you can possibly get for generations of children in Denmark. Thanks for the memories. You may not be as famous as Kermit, but you were our green saviour.

Bella has been doing this lately. She’ll get up halfway on the ramp and then sit down and then slide to the ground. And she’ll do that once or twice before deciding to get all the way up on the platform itself before sitting down. It just makes me laugh.

Good goat times today. A bit cloudy, but the sun fought its way through at times. And the temperatures are slowly rising, which is nice.
Jeanette was out sick today, so I was in charge today. She had sent me a message yesterday telling me she wouldn’t be there. I do the same if I’m not there on days when I’m usually there. I like that we care about each other and that I’m an important part of taking care of the goats, even if I am technically just a visitor, or volunteer.
The usual visitors from the neighbour school came today. Jeanette is usually great with the visiting kids. I am not so good at that, but the kids got to see the goats and spend some time with them. Beren got to pet Luna, she always loves seeing the goats.
There was a boy who came into the pen with a picture book. I think it was the story of the billy goats gruff. He wasn’t really verbal, and I couldn’t really see the book. But the adult who was with him was talking about the story.
Lovely spring day with the goats. And then home and doing an hour and change on the bike. Very tired legs, but it’s progressing nicely. Very close to the target now, almost time to start thinking about the next target.
But for now it’s time to think about targetting some soup.

“But if we don’t have Greenland, we can’t have great international security.”

I did some work on the platform in the goat house today.
The last couple of times I’ve been there, I have founds the platform knocked down in the morning. I know they like to scratch their backs on it, and I guess they just push it over. One of the pavement tiles holding it down disappeared, maybe Jeanette took it to use it somewhere.
Anyway, there’s not much fun in having a platform if it’s constantly knocked over and unusable. So I did a little redesign. Got the platform up a little higher and made it less slanty. And got a tile on each end to weigh it down. Unfortunately that meant I had to take a couple of tiles from the ground, so that part is shorter now. But I’ll see how this work, if the platform stays up.
And I may ask Jeanette if she could go pick up some more tiles, if I offer to pay for them. So I can build a little more. We’ll see.
All that work wasn’t good for my back, lots of bending down and hauling heavy tiles back and forth as I was experimenting with the best configuration. But hey you gotta do what you gotta do, right Luna?

Got an hour forty five on the bike today. Flap flap flap. The progress is very good. I am pretty much back to my best weight. I need a pound or so to get to the technical lowest weight I got to last year, but for all intents and purposes I am back to the best shape of my life. And this time with much more muscle. So that’s good. I’ll probably go for another ouple of weeks to see if I can lose some more weight, but almost time to scale down the intensity. Haven’t had pizza in almost a month, I would like some pizza soon please. For all in tents and tortoises.
After the exercise I did some more apartment work. Put up some blocking on another part of window. I was planning to block off the whole window today, but I reconsidered. I don’t want to block out the sun completely I think. I have blocked out parts that shine in on my eyes when I sit at the computer. I think I will leave the rest free, even though it still affets my eyesight negatively. I just also want to feel the sun, somewhat. I’ll see how I feel about the current configuration after a while.
Now it’s time to soupify.

And tonight is daylight saving time in Denmark. So at least I’ll lose an hour. Normally I’m mad about that, but right now I wouldn’t mind if I lost a decade or two.

My Bowie journey has reached the Labyrinth soundtrack. I have such love for that movie. As previously mentioned, that was probably my first time really enganging with David Bowie, previously he was just someone whose big hits i heard on the radio. I don’t know if ‘real’ Bowie fans think Labyrinth is embarrassing, but it was magic to me as a kid and I love the music too. Appeals to me a lot more than Let’s Dance and Tonight, the two previous albums.
I have always thought As The World Falls Down was a beautiful song.
I’m not holding much hope for the Labyrinth sequel that they are apparently making. Because we can’t have nice things. But hey who knows, maybe it’ll be good.
