A time, a place, a person - a memorial to Denmark’s fallen since 1948 at Kastellet in Copenhagen. When you visit, I t’s striking how many of the dead died in Afghanistan.

Who needs a sled when you can have your dad slide down the slope on his bum? Fun in the snow near Kastellet, in Copenhagen.

When I was in high school in ‘90’s Australia the ‘rule’ was divide by two plus seven. So an 18yo could date a 16yo, 30yo with no younger than 22, 40 with 27… still holds up pretty well. Epstein would’ve been seen the creep he was.
