We Finns actually also practice it.

Not too common, but definitely not unheard of.

Ant hill = muurahaispesä , to sit = istuu/istua istu*

Look it up in YT I’m sure there’s more than enough results

Sagan was known for weed, but prolly took took acid and shrooms, whereas Nietzsche used coke.

Cocaine is purely dopaminergic, which makes you energetic, but emotionally “cold” compared to serotonin.

Just switch Nietzsche to Terence McKenna and then the meme is correct.

Only us fish have “true” lungs

Hares are like what rabbits become after they go through what Aimo Koivunen did.

A scout on the Finno-Russian border, their group got attacked by the Soviets, they fled and because skiing is hard fucking work, he got fatigued but couldn’t stop, so he decided to take some of the Pervitin (meth) he had been issued. He couldn’t get a single tablet out with his frozen hand and accidentally took his squads entirely dose.

Was gone for a week. Skiid for 400km. Ate pinecombs and one siberian jay, raw. Pulse 200 and weighed 43kg (95lbs) when admitted to a hospital.

Oh that explains this scene

Do they like role-playing?

I wish someone gripped my husk.

The float yeah and that’s how they spread, but the coconuts were mostly brought by ships.

A coconut is really good on a ship 500 years ago, you have fresh water, some nutrition, etc.

Some ship gets destroyed with a load of coconuts on board and so it began probably.

Then when even the first ones have taken root, they start floating from isle to isle themselves.

Ah, my friend.

Mayhaps you’ve been hitting the halfling’s leaf a bit hard? They’re not taking about paying taxes, but filing them.

Those 'Muuuricans need to spend a whole lot of time every year doing paperwork on shit the government already has all their info on, so their corporations can fatten even more.

My guess is you might be European an we mostly use return-free tax filing systems. In that the government sends you a paper saying “this is what we’re going by, any objections?” and then you have a few months to claim tax deductions if there’s anything you’ve not deducted. Otherwise you don’t need to “file” the taxes in any way.

But yah general sentiment against taxes is stupid.

The definition of magic I go by is “affecting consciousness in accordance with will”, and when you’re going to watch fireflies with the thought in mind to appreciate them aesthetically, then yes, they are actual magic.

https://norse-mythology.org/concepts/magic/

Magic produces change by working directly with consciousness. Its effects often spill over into the physical world, but this occurs only indirectly. This is, in an important sense, the exact opposite of what modern science does. Science causes changes in the physical world in accordance with the “laws” of the physical world. Magic and science not only work by different means; they also work toward different ends, and, in fact, this difference in ends accounts for the difference in means. This is why practitioners of magic don’t conduct laboratory experiments, and why scientists don’t intone chants before altars inscribed with emotionally powerful symbols. The apologists for the conventions of our own age often claim that magic is a “primitive,” immature groping toward science, and now that science has arrived, magic is obsolete. But science and magic are different enterprises altogether. Neither can entirely supersede the other. Indeed, as will be discussed below, magic is as alive and well in the modern world as it’s ever been – it’s just been brilliantly disguised

Octopi is the oldest plural form of octopus, coming from the belief that Latin origins should have Latin endings. However, octopus is not a simple Latin word, but a Latinized form of the Greek word októpus. Consequently, its “correct” plural form would logically be octopodes.

Nowadays “octopodes” and octopuses" are both acceptable, the latter being more regularly used.

“Squid” on the other hand isn’t Latin or Greek, of unknowns origin, probably from a sailor’s variant of “squirt”; late 15c., squirten, squyrten “to spit water from the mouth” (intransitive), a word of uncertain origin, perhaps via Middle Dutch or Middle Low German, probably ultimately imitative.

Can it be an apartment full, instead of a storage unit?

Oh. Well guess now you have to take me to a gay bar?

Danger! Danger! HIGH VOLTAGE!

No no, that’s a “drugtest”. I want a drug test. I want to test some drugs before the cock-off.

First one to loosen, loses?

I’ll compete on the condition there’s a drug test before hand.

When I was a kid it was a thing to stick a stick into a nest of ants so they’d piss on it so you could then suck/sniff the stick for a… sensation.

I never did as I didn’t want to bother the ants.

I think it’s like the FDA having just reasonable guidelines on how much UV you can safely be exposed to. RFKJR prolly thinks sun lotion prevents all the healthiness from the sun and crystallises your amygdala or something along those lines.

Good boi refreshes my belief in goodness.

Daily dose of belief in hum… dogmanity.
