Timeline

With the Democrats not only winning control of both the House and the Senate but Trump also admitting defeat, it seems as if Jean-Luc Picard has indeed fixed the timeline. Coming in the wake of progressive victories in Hungary, Serbia and Brazil, there is finally some hope for a better world or, at least, an end to democratic decline.

Waking up to the good news from across the Atlantic, I laced up my Hoka Speedgoats for a long-awaited return to Skatås. Having moved down to Torpavallen, my usual 11.5-kilometre run has turned into 13.5 kilometres, meaning that a full week of running will add up to almost one hundred kilometres, something I hope to manage a few times before the year is out. Otherwise, the new apartment is coming together quite nicely, even if a lot of work remains before the kids can move in on Monday.
