    Ah janteloven, danish humility.

    I live in Denmark, used to live in the US. Lots of problems still, but it's basically just across the board better in most ways to me.

    I think the copyright law is a great step. Yeah, there's probably some holes in the law and it doesn't fix everything but I don't know what else could be done, nor what other countries are doing nearly this much

    About to live in Denmark for about six months, I'm certain I will have to be dragged back into the states kicking and screaming the whole while. I'm fully expecting some pretty large changes in my mental health and quality of life.
