1st April was very festive since... Peafowl visited balcony near my bedroom, then moved to office window, then jumped down to the garden . They hang out like this whole day almost.

Feeling sick and having these 'should I call the ER?' moments so life as usual, I guess.

Eating some beef savan now.

Easter basket reminds me about how once grandparents told me to go to the church for blessing the basket even though they went to church, like... Never. I didn't go and lied that I went and they started asking questions about the, uhm, ritual and I didn't know anything and I got busted this way lol.

Yeah, the basket is for Easter Letters ( Påskbrev ) .. most kids handing them over to friends, I know Easter is a Christian thing but most kids celebrate Easter here for fun and not religion.

A påskbrev (literally "Easter letter") is a traditional Swedish handmade Easter card or drawing. It is a central part of the påskkärring (Easter witch) tradition, where children dress up as "witches" and visit neighbors to spread holiday cheer.

The Tradition

• Creating the Letter: Children create colorful drawings or cards, often featuring motifs like witches on broomsticks flying to the mythical Blåkulla, Easter bunnies, chickens, or eggs.
• The Exchange: Similar to Halloween "trick-or-treating," children dressed in headscarves and aprons knock on doors and offer these handmade påskbrev to neighbors.
• The Reward: In exchange for the letter, the neighbors typically give the children sweets (påskgodis) or small coins.

Regional Variations

• Western Sweden (Värmland and Dalsland): In these regions, a more specific version of the tradition exists where children try to deliver the letter anonymously. They might "throw" the letter through a neighbor's open door and then run away before they are caught. These regional versions sometimes include a piece of candy inside the folded letter itself.
• Southern/Eastern Sweden: It is more common for children to simply hand the letter over while wishing the neighbor a "Glad Påsk!" (Happy Easter).

Understand this fucktard behavior I get among people. They call it schizo, but I find it's a meaningless label...

I was busy playing games and drinking in 2025.

In 2026 I'm trying hard to create beauty and real art... when you create art, you feel it. When you create filler, you feel it as well.

If you create art, maybe you can't eat at McDonald's 21 times a week, but you can eat your feelings of happiness and fulfillment.

For just $1.5 I made 1.2 kg of fake ice cream...

It was supposed to end up as cheesecake but I skipped eggs, the solidifying and cooking step. It wouldn't change anything in my life.

1. 1000 grams of 6% minced crud cheese was mixed with 100 grams of powder sugar, 10 grams of erythritol and 40 grams of vanilla pudding. The whole thing was stirred well resulting in consistent, creamy mass.

Better and cheaper than ice cream.
Doesn't dissolve.

This is fucking saint art. Why? Price, almost free. Fun of self-made 10/10, beauty of simplicity 11/10, freedom 12/10.
