My sister gave me a bunch of pictures I didn't even know existed, from my grandparents travels in the north. I don't know the dates these were taken, but I do know that the sort of grayish pics with me in a beige jacket were taken in 2010, when I joined my grandparents for a week up in their cottage in Olden, Jämtland.

Let me start off by saying that the whole allegation that Sweden has legalized the flag of ISIS is phony to begin with, I think. Also, to contradict the title, that is EXACTLY what the Alt-Right has said about Sweden for a very long time.

Disney's Star Was Episode 9: The Rise Of Skywalker is going to be a nonsensical mess. The test audiences hated it and according to the Sweden's movie rating board, this movie is awful and nonsensical .
