Where am i \ any/all \ 15 yr ace cis girl \ am Finnish, like languages and want to learn them, love to learn about history and other countries.

If people don't admit that alcohol is a drug so help me God I will pour an entire bottle of wine on their hair.

Wine? Drugs. Beer? Drugs. That awful cocktail you made in your dorm room out of leftover coffee and orange juice and tequila? D-d-d-drugs.

This may sound obvious to you but society at large puts alcohol in this removed category away from other drugs. If you tell most wine moms that they have a drug problem they'd be appalled that you'd ever say such a thing. It's just time for humanity to admit that we like doing drugs. Most people's drug of choice just happens to be alcohol.

Also caffeine is a drug but like, it's so baked into our culture because so many people rely on it to get through the workday, which should really say something about our relationship with work but that's not a conversation the powers that be are eager to have

Countries’ names in Finnish

Some mistakes in there:

  • Chechia should be Tšekin tasavalta (or just Tšekki), with an š, not Tsekin tasavalta like it’s here.
  • Kroatia with a k, not Croatia like in English.
  • Syyria with two y’s.
  • Jordania, not Jordan.
  • Macedonia is barely visible so I’m not sure how it’s written there, but that should also be with a k instead of a c. Plus of course it’s not Northern Macedonia, which in Finnish is Pohjois-Makedonia.
  • Kazakstan, no h in there in Finnish.

also

  • libanon, not lebanon
  • bosnia ja hertsegovina, not bosnia-herzegovina

Vatniks and tankies can't get over the fact that Finland, the Baltic states and Poland still exist (and are much better off without Russia)…. They dream of the day when Russia will re-invade these countries, and if that ever happens you can bet your bottom dollar that vatnik and tankie clowns everywhere will be supporting the imperialism of Russia's ruling class, blaming the victims, mindlessely repeating the Kremlin's propaganda and cheerleading their war crimes from afar. That's one reason why vatniks and tankies also hate NATO, because joining NATO is what prevents Russia from invading….

Why "russians with attitude" prefer to live in western countries, speak english and use westerner sites? move to your glorious mother russia, speak inly russian, and use vkontakte or whatever so normal people won't be forced to see your larping bs

Aaaah can I just wax a bit about how I'm learning Finnish, like I started because of Käärijä but honestly now I just really love learning this language

This ended up being longer than expected oop, anyway if you want to read paragraphs upon paragraphs of infodump on my approach to learning Finnish and how much I love it then click to keep reading

Does anybody else get legitimately worried when a fanfic author who was updating regularly just suddenly disappears with no warning? Like, is it a serious case of writers block or are they in a coma? Did they just up and quit? Was it me? Were my reviews not good enough?! Did they die 😳?! Were they kidnapped? Do I need to file a missing persons report? Excuse me officer, there’s been 13 weekly updates and now nothing for months! Find them! What’s their name?! Name!? I don’t know their name but they write 3k+ chapters and I need them safe and back in my life!

Sir, that’s my emotional support fanfic author.

Officer: i’m sorry, but you can’t file this person missing.

Me: you don’t have all the facts.

Officer: which are?

Me: i love them.

So, painful story, but I’ve really needed to tell it for a while.

My best friend, the woman I loved for 13 years, was a fic writer in the middle of an especially long piece. She updated on a schedule and had for years. She had a small, but loyal following.

And then she died out of nowhere. One day we were laughing, the next she was in a coma, 3 days later she was dead. She hadn’t been ill and to this day we don’t know what took her. She was just gone.

I knew she had friends all over the world so I went into her email to see if I could find addresses and notify people after a week of blind grief. In her inbox were about a dozen concerned messages from her readers. I cried. I cried and cried and I responded to all of them, telling people she had passed.

And the messages kept coming. Those people spread the word and message after message came in, most of them addressed to me now, as I had given those original readers my contact info. There were words of comfort and grief and just every emotion imaginable in that scenario. I wrote back to them all, thanking them and comforting them.

For months after she died, during the worst of my grief, I had those messages. I had those people. And they had me. I really think I might not have made it to the other side without them.

So, the fact that you care? That you think of them? That these authors who became a presence in your world are missed when they aren’t there? It means something very real. On the off chance that the author did die? Anyone who has seen this post will find comfort during the loss of their friend or family member, knowing that you all exist. That they aren’t alone. That you CARE that the world now lacks their loved one.

So, yeah. I’ve seen this post and ones like it for years and wanted to share this story. I finally could today.

Thank you, every person who reblogged this post. People like you are the biggest reason I’m alive today.

In the recent Undertale newsletter, Toby Fox showed off an unused scene that would have occurred in the Judgement Hall had the player decided to speedrun the game! This scene features Sans chastising the player for being early and slowly eating an ice cream for about a full minute while an original, slow song plays. I’m sure this would have been quite a headache for speedrunners!

(The scene can be viewed in it’s entirety here)

I don't understand any Finnish so I watch a käärijä story and then I turn up to tumblr and gather screenshots and tags and replies to absorb the gist of what he's saying through some kind of fandom osmosis
