Democracy Day

Democracy day at Karlstad municipality. A day full of interesting workshops and speeches about the history of democracy, where it is today and its future. A lot of people from Karlstad University and the biggest name being a political scientist famous from the Swedish program Boston Tea Party (a show based like a debate with two host and five experts in different areas discussing all the weirdest things). Very good coffee was served with some cinnamon buns. Unfortunately you couldn't see all workshops so I participated in the Democracy and its antagonist based on this book. I think if you read my earlier post you get the idea what I see the dangers to democracy is (*cough* stupidity *cough*).

Also it seems to be both Europe Day and Mother's Day. So play some Ode an die Freude and say congrats to your mother, which I've done by accident. I called my mother due to shutting of my mobile during the Democracy day in an attempt not to appear having a hangover as it is Sunday. I didn't first understand why she sounded so happy that I called (except that I actually called, which I haven't done since 2008, she calls me if you wondered), but then I saw it was Mother's day so that's probably it. Or she was happy because she actually forgot about me as she does every other week.
