I went to go watch Kungliga Smycken, the amazing documentary about the Swedish royal jewelry collection, to get in the Nobel mindset before Saturday and found out that it is being taken off of SVT's video player on December 10th so make sure you watch it while you still can!!!
SVT - Kungliga Smycken
The documentary features interviews with Queen Silvia, Crown Princess Victoria, and Princess Christina and stunning shots of jewels. It's not geo-blocked so everyone can watch it. There are Swedish captions that I used to be able to translate using Google's translation extension but it's not working for me anymore. Is it working for anyone else or is it just me? Does anyone have any other suggestion for how to translate the captions? If you can't get the captions to translate and don't speak Swedish here are my liveblogs from when I originally watched it.

6. What is your favorite vegetable? the humble potato 7. Do you remember your first day at school? ya 8. What is the worst exam result you remember ever getting? 50% for both year 12 maths methods exams lolol 9. How tall are you? 5'5  10. Can you swim? splish splash! yep! 11. Who is your favorite movie actress? i really don’t care 12. Who is your favorite movie actor? ibid.  13. Who is your favorite comedian? bo burnham ? idk
14. Who is your favorite politician? hmm i disagree a lot with this q. i agree with a lot of politicians and i think some are cool and interesting people, but having a “favourite politician” would be putting them on a pedestal?? and like when u do that it makes it harder to disagree with them when they have a BAD opinion on some issues. i don’t think that’s good. i think we need to always be critical of politicians no matter how groovy some seem. 
15. Who is your favorite historical figure (been dead for at least 100 years)? Louis XVI ! :O :O Tsar Nicholas II (even tho he’s only been dead for 99 years), Charlotte Corday!, Woodrow Wilson (BTW by “favourite” i’ve interpreted that as mOST inTeresting, i don’t necessarily think these historical figures were good people loL especially wilson ahhhh i just think his contribution in beginning wwii was super interesting, especially how wilsonian principles like self-determination influenced different nations, i think he wasnt a super great dude tho lol) hmmm, some more probs but i cannot recall at this time.
