The good and the bad. Warning! Political content!

The good thing:
I've found a cotton fabric that is very similar to the veil worn by Mary Queen of Scots, and is shown on page 48-49 in QEWU.
The bad: You all know what it is and even if I don't mind that those very few of my friends who are happy about the election are happy I myself can only feel sadness and a little despair. I don't want to raise kids in a world made unsafe by that man and his politics, but most of all I feel sorry for you who have to live with a political agenda that only promotes the already strong and rich and doesn't give a damn about the poor.

And to all of you: I do love you all and my thoughts are with you.

Nazis at MY university

Just to show that all isn't nice and dandy here: One of the organizations for young conservatives "Fria moderata studentförbundet" here in Sweden have invited one of the top persons in the national democrats, a neo-nazi party to give a speech at a house owned by the university but used by the students (of course the university wouldn't let the building to nazis, but now it's the conservative group that have booked the hall). "Fria moderata studentförbundet" are ideologically, if not formally, linked to the Conservative party and there are personal links between them. Anyway, we'll see if the university can find some way to stop this, otherwise I might have to find a babysitter for all my kids and go protesting on wednesday evening.
Tuesday there is a big anti-racism march, since it is the anniversary of the crystal night,when jewish shops and jews were attacked in nazi Germany.
