I understand completely Apt. Sometimes, I trigger myself.
No, I understand avoiding posts that hit too close to home. I do the same thing.

This is very cool. I was able to translate the main page to English, but the parts that did not translate (i.e. the map itself), I was able to translate through inference. I am constantly fascinated by how English is found in other languages. For instance, "41 dagar till vintersolstånd,"
dagar was easily translated into
days. It was very interesting to hear "winter solstice" in "vintersolstånd". Thank you for sharing.
Are you very close to the Arctic Circle? I definitely understand how such a short day would cause SAD. I deal with depression every day, so I feel for you, Apt.
