Hermestoldmeurgay - Dont Look At Me Like That

i know your blog says finnish grammar but honestly I have no idea who else to ask. If I wanted to learn more about Finnish mythology, what's a good place to start? I'm specifically trying to learn about Tellervo if you could help me out there.

Thanks so much :)

Sadly, there's very little sources even in finnish about finnish mythology. The christians spent over a thousand years painstakingly scrubbing out any trace or knowledge of The Old Pagan Habits of the common people, so everything that's left is a fraction of a fraction of a remnant of a trace. Researchers specialising in finnish mythology have occasionally resorted to comparing their sources with the mythologies of other peoples of common ancestry, such as Estonians, to see if there are similarities and which old details and traits were probably shared and original.

The finns didn't have a written language before the 1500s, and the first finns who could read and write in their own native languages were priests, determined to teach christian teachings to the peasants in their own language. Figuring out what old finnish folklore and mythology was really like is a lot like figuring out what dinosaurs looked like. The best we can do is look at the traces that remain and make educated guesses about it.

You know what'd be really refreshing to see? A story where every main character just genuinely, openly, and purely loves each other, and nobody has a problem with it or thinks it's weird. Are they polyamorous, just intensely good friends, is it sexual, romantic, platonic? You can't tell where one ends and another begins. And whatever drama there is between the main characters is about genuinely wanting the best for each other, but disagreeing about what it is or how to get it.

Like imagine a scene where a woman sees her fiancé kiss another man on the mouth and later walks up to the man like "I see that he loves you as deeply as I love him, never dare to break his heart."

And the guy, who just put together that this must be his boyfriend's girlfriend, just goes "my lady I would push my sword through my own throat before I'd let him come to harm."

And this is just depicted as a perfectly normal way for people to talk to each other and about each other.

all the right wing has to do is blast ASMR and they'll defeat the autistic ADHD protestors and activists with a single crunch

ASMR videos being popular and sought-after has to be the world's biggest prank against me. I fundamentally refuse to believe any of that is enjoyable. Hearing it turns me into an animal that needs to attack you so hard for Making those noises inside my ears.

Is a person transphobic is they think that men can't have vaginas and women can't have penises? I'm just curious to know

I mean this in the kindest of ways here friend but if you look up the definition of “transphobia” online you’re going to get much faster and much more eloquent results

“Free Palestine. Genocide is not welcome here. You have blood on your hands.”

Pro-Palestine activists confronted the Israeli ambassador to South Korea, Rafael Harpaz, whilst he was having dinner at a restaurant in Seoul.

All Zionists should be treated like this. No place for genocidal ghouls. Kick them out!

hello friend, i've added ur fundraiser to my linktree - even if i can't donate right now i know someone out there can.

If you're a company blasting an unskippable ad at me, online or at the gas station, just know I'm making a mental note to never buy your product. I will go out of my way, I will inconvenience myself to avoid supporting your business.

Something that’s really sad to me is that there is basically no online Roma community anymore

Bbc used to have a message board for Romany teens, and they still do, but no one has used it since 2005, and those teens that were on it will be adults now, and plenty with their own kids now

Rumblr used to be an active, thriving space, but most people left, and now there’s only a few of us

The Romani Reddit imploded on itself and now there isn’t one

The only things I can thing of are the tik tok communities, which aren’t close knit and are super toxic from what I’ve seen and heard, and the discord, which it’s hard to track down a link for
