I can’t express to you how grateful I am that Amat and Maya never got together in Beartown. And how Maya didn’t get with anyone in the series.

Amat went through some serious growth, but we can’t forget that he witnessed Maya’s rape and allowed her to get cruicified by the residents of Beartown for it. Despite him knowing the truth- that Maya wasn’t lying- he didn’t say anything in favor of fitting in with the team. He did come out in defence of Maya later on, but the damage was already done. He chose to be silent. 

Maya forgave Amat and they became friends, but after what he did, having a romantic relationship would be off the table. Not only that, but because of Maya’s trauma from the assault, she probably wouldn’t be in the mental head space to date anybody. Even in the last installment of the series, she is getting there, but she isn’t ready to be with anyone romantically.

Not all female characters need romance subplots. Maya was a character that didn’t need a love interest, so she didn’t have one. She existed as her own character, and her plot focused on her, her familial relationships, and her friends. Some authors- mostly male- can’t comprehend that women can exist without a boyfriend, but Maya remained single the whole series. Another reminder that Fredrick Backman is a genius and one of- if not the only- man I trust to write female protagonists with grace and respect.

What is life, other than moments? What is laughter, other than a small victory over sorrow? A single moment, just one, when everything inside us isn't broken.

Calliope Mori - Kamouflage - TOB Vocal Cover

Happy 2nd Anniversary to #holoMyth and #holoEN as well! #callioP

So Calli along with holoMyth and holoEN is going two years, and this cover of a track from Calli’s first major-label EP, SHINIGAMI NOTE, is pretty much my commemorative upload for it. And yes, I decided to use the presence of the lyric “‘Play the role of ‘bad girl”” as a way for my take on this to be sassier on top of manlier, because hey, that is how I look at Calli at the very least: a crudely…

The IB affair (Swedish: IB-affären) was the exposure of illegal surveillance operations by the IB secret Swedish intelligence agency within the Swedish Armed Forces. The two main purposes of the agency were to handle liaison with foreign intelligence agencies and to gather information about communists and other individuals who were perceived to be a threat to the nation.[...]

The story was immediately picked up by many leading Swedish dailies.[3] Their revelations were that: •There was a secret intelligence agency in Sweden called IB, without official status. Its director Birger Elmér was reporting directly to select key persons at cabinet level, most likely defence minister Sven Andersson and Prime Minister Olof Palme. •The Riksdag was unaware of its activities. People with far-left views had been monitored and registered. •IB agents had infiltrated Swedish left-wing organisations and sometimes tried to induce them into criminal acts. •There were Swedish spies operating abroad. IB spies had broken into the Egyptian and Algerian embassies in Stockholm. •The IB co-operated extensively with the Central Intelligence Agency and Shin Bet, in contrast to the official Swedish foreign policy of neutrality.[...]

In the following issues of Folket i Bild/Kulturfront the two uncovered further activities of IB and interviewed a man who had infiltrated the Swedish movement supporting the FNL, Vietnamese National Front for the Liberation of South Vietnam - at this time the FNL support network was a backbone of the radical opinion - and among other things, visited Palestinian guerilla camps in Jordan. The man worked for IB and had composed reports that, it was surmised, IB later passed on to the Israeli security services which resulted in the camps being bombed. [...]Swedish authorities claimed they were unable to locate him to stand trial. In 2009, he released an autobiography of his years in IB[...] He also confirmed that he had been transferred from IB to the Mossad, an Israeli intelligence agency, immediately prior to his exposure.[...]

The magazine had information from a previous employee of IB, Håkan Isacson, who claimed that IB had broken into the offices of two political organizations: the FNL Groups, a pro-North Vietnamese organization, and the Communist Party of Sweden, a Maoist political party. This concerned a Jordanian citizen and a stateless citizen. A wiretap was installed in the latter case. After this uncovering, the defense minister did admit that IB engaged in espionage outside of Sweden and infiltrated organizations within Sweden, including wiretaps. Evidence was put forth in 1974 that IB had built up a large network of agents in Finland, which included the Finnish foreign minister Väinö Leskinen. This network's main mission was to gather information regarding the Soviet Union.[...]

In November 1973, Prime Minister Olof Palme denied any link between IB and the Social Democrats. However, according to the memoir of ex-security service chief P.G. Vinge, Birger Elmér had regular contact with Palme and made his reports regularly to the Social Democratic Party secretary, Sven Andersson.[...]

Jan Guillou, Peter Bratt, Håkan Isacson and the photographer Ove Holmqvist were arrested 22 October 1973[2] by the Swedish Security Service on suspicion of espionage. On 4 January 1974 each was sentenced to 1 year in prison. Bratt and Guillou were both convicted of espionage; Isacson was convicted of espionage and accessory to espionage. After an appeal, Guillou's sentence was commuted to 10 months. The Swedish Supreme Court would not consider the case.[4][...]

In 2002 an extensive public report, named Rikets säkerhet och den personliga integriteten (Security of the Realm and personal integrity), was published on the operations of IB. This report clarified the details of the case, but it did not have any legal impact. To date, no member of IB has ever been indicted, nor has any politician or government official, despite the revelation of widespread extra-constitutional and criminal activity.

[whitewaterpaper]

Skräckmånaden oktober bjuder på skräck även om merparten av dem faktiskt var en tillfällighet.

Doktor Caligari / Das Cabinet des Dr. Caligari (1920) [👍🆓] Klassisk film som influerat mycket film under de 100 år som passerat sedan den producerades. Fortfarande genuint bra. Kan ses på SVTPlay, rekommenderar att testa den med talande textremsor.

Dödsexpressen / Pánico en el Transiberiano (1972) [🆓] Ett av månadens få YT-fynd. Helt okej, men med både Christopher Lee och Peter Cushing hade det potential att bli bättre. Men manus är lite smårisigt.

Fars lilla tös (2018) [👍🔁🆓] Nyproduktionen av fredriksdalsklassikern från 1999. Ankan Andersson är som gjuten i rollen som den vimsige och lite osäkre professorn. Kan ses på Eva Rydbergs YT-kanal.

Fredagen den 13e / Friday the 13th (1980) [] Vad är coolare att se än fredagens den 13 på just fredagen den 13e? Att se den lördagen den 14e förståss! Jag kna ärligt säga att jag förväntade mig mer av den här, så här 40+ år senare känns den nästan oinspirerad.

Frossa / Shivers (1975) [👎] David Cronenbergs långfilmsdebut. Skräck och Science Fiction omnämns den som ... men jag vet inte. Framför allt vill den visa upp sex-zombies.

Hocus Pocus (1993) [👍🔁] Årliga, och alltid uppskattade, besöket i Bette Midlers Salem.

In for a Murder / W Jak Morderstwo (2021) [👍] Trevlig polsk småputtrande crime-film. En klar överraskning av månadens alla fynd.

Kaos i Folkparken (2004) [👍🔁🆓] Mi Ridell i högform. Kan ses på Eva Tydbergs YT-kanal.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space (1988) [👍🔁] Jag ser om Hocus Pocus till varje Halloween, borde inte KKfOS också ses om årligen under oktober? Jajamensan.

Last Night in Soho (2021) [👍] Det här är en film med ambitioner. Det här är en film med ambitioner som faktiskt lyckas vara både bra och sevärd.

Nandor Fodor and the Talking Mongoose (2023) [👎] Märklig film med en märklig ton. Är det en komedi? Ett drama? En Dramedy? Bygger på verkliga händelser men storyn är svår att ta på allvar.

Slice (2018) [🆓] Paranormalt mordmysterium med visst komedifilter. Helt okej. Kan ses på Viddla.

Tjejen mot monstren / Girl vs. Monster (2012) [🔁]

Transmorphers (2007) [👍🔁]

Översättarna / Les Traducteurs (2019) [👍🆓] Småklaustrofobiskt mordmysterium som utspelar sig i en bunker. Intressnt och bra rakt igenom. Kan ses på SVTPlay.

Översättarna ligger kvar till 12 november och Dr. Caligari till den 26e november. Två filmer värda att prioritera denna månad.

An exploration of fashion designer Gaby Aghion’s life, career, and legacy at the French fashion house Chloé   As imagined by the company’s founder, Gaby Aghion (1921–2014), the sophisticated, romantic, and glamorous designs of Chloé have captured the energy and aspirations of generations of women since Aghion designed her first collection in 1952. This sumptuously illustrated book centers Chloé and Aghion within the cultural arena and crystallizes a major transition in the postwar Parisian fashion industry, from haute couture to prêt-à-porter. Aghion defined Chloé as a brand of luxury ready-to-wear clothing combining high-end materials and savoir faire with light shapes for active women. Aghion, an Egyptian Jew in Paris, brought a fresh, outsider perspective to French fashion.   Seventy years of archival clothing from Chloé designers are reproduced here, many for the first time, along with sketches, advertisements, and photographs. Essays shed light on Aghion’s life, the company’s approach to fashion, and the ways in which it fostered young talents. The book celebrates Aghion’s daring entrepreneurship and her legacy through the acclaimed designers who embodied and reinterpreted her original inspiration. Paulo Melim Andersson, Gabriela Hearst, Clare Waight Keller, Karl Lagerfeld, Hanna MacGibbon, Stella McCartney, Peter O’Brien, Phoebe Philo, Natacha Ramsay-Levi, and Martine Sitbon offer recollections of their experiences working at the fashion house.   Published in association with the Jewish Museum, New York
