Great capitals of the World: Luxembourg, Luxembourg.

Elon musk is the richest man in the world, he could be funding hospitals, medical research and universities. He could be solving the climate crisis. He could be feeding, hungry children. Instead, he’s trying to make sure that your grandmother doesn’t get an extra dollar of Social Security.

First snow in Sunnyside Portland this winter. A Scandinavian is not too impressed with this sissy powder.

Maddow: If you don't have Bluesky yet, I recommend it. It is a social media network that doesn't make me want to stab myself in the eye with a rusty fork

I’m proud to say I survived Taiwan without a hint of anxieties. #Tainan

A drinking fountain in the souk in Damascus, Syria back in 2007. I loved that place but wouldn’t want to go back for all the obvious reasons. #beautifulcities

Bern, Switzerland’s cute capital. #beautifulcities

A cold morning at the Pyramids outside Mexico City a month ago.

Copenhagen by the lakes, one of the favorite parts of my birth town.

Dusk in Huatulco, Mexico.

The Oregon Coast today. Sand is a beautiful invention.

Huatulco, Mexico. You’re welcome.

Between a rock and a hard place. #TamilNadu #India

@sandraingerman.bsky.social Welcome to Blue Sky, Sandra. I can't comment on your Facebook posts but it's good seeing you here. I'm so grateful for all the good you do in the world and so are all the animals I've talked to.

Sometimes the world is at your feet?

Mexico is on my mind. #Huatulco

I had no idea that Nyhavn, Copenhagen had been relocated to Pensacola, Florida, but I'm definitely going to buy a condo there RIGHT NOW! #RidiculousAd

To the government of Denmark: the best thing you can do re: Greenland threats, is to not express fear but anger instead. “Keep threatening and we will deny you access to Greenland.” Trump, like Putin, understands threats and will back down.

Paul McCartney is following me here on BlueSky, but the poor man only has 22 followers. You should never have left the Beatles, Paul! #MaybeI’mAmazed?

Stuck for nine hours in Dallas/Forth Worth airport on the way to Mexico because of a snowflake or two. Then, a few hours on the airport’s lovely tarmac waiting for the plane to be de-iced. Now we’re heading back to our prison-terminal again for some lovely fast food.

Jeg elsker frokost-avisernes dyktige kreaturlæsere!

Det er fuldstændig absurd, hvordan vi på nogle områder i Danmark bare nægter fremskridtet. At droppe minkavl af både dyrevelfærds-, miljø- og folkesundhedsårsager er så meget en lige-til-højrebenet-situation, at de ikke fås større. Men i Danmark fortsætter vi selvfølgelig. U-f-a-t-t-e-l-i-g-t.

100% enig. Dyrene er gæster her på jorden ligesom vi er. Vi forstår slet ikke betydningen af hvor vigtige de er for os!

Paul McCartney on a winter’s day in Portland, photos and all.

Dearest Donald, No, you can’t buy Greenland from Denmark but we’ll let you have Legoland so you can throw your toys out of the pram every day you like! All the best, The Kingdom of Denmark

I love giraffes but they might be extinct thirty years from now so I support GCF - Giraffe Conservation Foundation. A planet without giraffes would be a travesty!

Milan Kundera’s The Book of Laughter and Forgetting is on my all time Top 10. It’s funny, tragic, deep, and satirical. What’s not to like? #BlueSkyBooks

Some parking lots make more sense than others. #alwayscrashinginthesamecar #davidbowie #streetart #encinitas #rocknrollmural

I don’t understand why Democrats defend Biden when he pardons his son or bombs Syria. The only reason he is going to be missed is because somebody worse will take his place!

Thank God Syria got rid of Assad. I visited Syria three times before the war and I hope this can be a new beginning for the Syrians but there are no guarantees since the Islamic rebels aren’t exactly angels!

I don’t like that Apple spies on my iPhone but I loved this list of the artists I’ve listened to the most in 2024. Billie Eilish won and Beatles didn’t even make my Top 5. Shame on me! Got to get you into my life? #music

@adamkinzinger.bsky.social I’m a total leftie but I don’t think there’s anyone in politics I admire more than you. The way you stood up to Trump and the truth was admirable! Thanks for being an authentic human being, even if I don’t agree with you on many things!
