Trump Signs Executive Order to Create Sovereign-Wealth Fund President Trump signed an executive order instructing the Treasury and Commerce departments to examine creating a sovereign-wealth fund.

No, we live in Berkeley, and my wife tipped me after she saw the poster at the venue. But I probably would've picked up on it anyway, but then it was much better than I thought.

I couldn't possibly have taken these photos and shared this before the show!

Inauguration day

A view of the starry sky framed by the iconic Arch Rock. The serenity of nature meets the infinity of the universe in perfect harmony.

A solitary Joshua tree bathed in golden afternoon sunlight, a timeless symbol of survival and adaptation.

The sharp yet vibrant yucca plant reaching for the sky, with rock formations in the background.

A close-up of the spiky cholla cactus, embracing the harsh desert reality with beauty and resilience.

Some impressions from our visit to Joshua Tree Park this Christmas

A group of red-masked parakeets flying around and perched in the branches of a large tree against a cloudy sky. The parrots' bright green feathers and red faces contrast with the muted colors of the tree and sky, capturing a lively moment in San Francisco.

These are red-masked parakeets, wild parrots living in San Francisco. However, they originally come from Ecuador and Peru. It’s believed they are descendants of birds imported here before the practice was banned.

The flock was estimated to have around 300 individuals. These were around 20.

A bike path surrounded by trees on a foggy morning, with muted light creating a serene and quiet atmosphere.

A bike/jog path bathed in golden sunlight filtered through trees, creating a warm and inviting scene with the elevated train track to the right.

Had a misty jog this morning through El Cerrito towards Richmond a long Ohlone Greenway. Became a better person because of the lights.

Da har også jeg deaktivert Twitter. Jeg hadde ca 950 poster fram til 2016, og tre eller fire mellom 2016-og 2023.

I did!

Ok, remember creep 1! Dont think I ever saw #2

I can't remember this. When did we see these creepy movies?

Ran the Berkeley Half Marathon today. Amazing event and great atmosphere. L.A. marathon next, in exactly four month.

Hva ble det til?

I finally found the Ohlone Greenway, which I looked up before we came here but couldn't locate on Google Maps. You actually have to zoom in and carefully search every nook and cranny to find it. And it was really nice—far fewer traffic crossings and long stretches of walking and biking paths.

Bee of Berkeley.

There's a lot to get used to when applying for three different schools for the kids. It also looks like I'll need to take the driving test for a California driver's license in order to buy and insure a car. Best way to approach it is to consider it exciting, I guess. #berkeley #moving #practical

The first days in Berkeley have been marked by both jet lag and many new impressions. There are many wonderful things and many strange things. There are fantastic grocery stores and gardens with vegetation that seems more like a fairytale.

I'm used to my evening runs in Norway, but I've heard that running at night in California is viewed with skepticism. Will I have to become a morning person? #moving #existential

Moving to the US #2:

No matter how much I sort, sell and pack, I can't shake the feeling that I'm leaving too much behind. Should've sold more, tossed more, maybe never bought half this stuff in the first place! But I won't and I did. #moving #existential

Moving to the US #1:

Why does it feel like my Norwegian money shrinks every time I postpone converting it to dollars?
