Ooh I've Done This Too. Some Of The Ways We Had People Lying Down Instead Of Injury (though Im Pretty

Now that I think about it, I'm half convinced it was made up by american corporations as a marketing tactic.

"I bet you remembered this brand name wrong" is a pretty good way to get people to recognize your brand, especially when you explain it with a trendy new phenomenon.

Like I still remember some of the brands even though I have never actually seen them anywhere.

Ok but the Mandela effect is like so fake. There is one actual example of this with Nelson Mandela himself and the rest are americans remembering brand names wrong.

A reminder to myself and others

I’ve seen a lot of posts on my dash tonight about users who are threatening suicide, with other Tumblr members posting in effort to try to get ahold of them. I think you all should see this:

IF THERE IS EVER A TUMBLR USER WHO HAS POSTED A GOOD-BYE MESSAGE, SUICIDE NOTE, VIDEO, OR ANYTHING OF THE SORT, PLEASE FOLLOW THIS POST.

1. Scroll to the top of your dashboard.

2. See the circular question mark icon at the top? It’s the third one over from your home symbol. Click on that, and a screen similar to the one in the picture will come up.

3. Where you can type in questions, the box with the magnifying glass at the top, type in the word “suicide.”

4. Click on the first link that shows up. It should say, “Pass the URL of the blog on to us.”

5. Type in the user’s URL and tell Tumblr admin that the user is contemplating suicide and has posted a message indicating that they are going through with it or will be attempting. Hit send! Tumblr administration will perform a number of actions to contact the user and take the necessary steps to prevent the suicide.

TUMBLR: THIS COULD SAVE A USER’S LIFE. PLEASE DO NOT IGNORE SUICIDE THREATS.

Reblog this to keep other users aware. Suicide isn’t a joke, and neither is someone’s life. If you didn’t know this, someone else may not, either. Pass it on.

Oikeesti rakastan suomenkielistä musiikkia! Noista sun mainistemista kuuntelen ite oikeestaan vaan cmx:ää (Vallat ja väet, Kain, Olet tässä yms. on niiiin hyviä), toki tiedän suurimman osan enemmän tai vähemmän. Omiin kuunteluihin kuuluu kans Happoradio, Apulanta, Haloo Helsinki, Tehosekoitin, Itä-Hollola Installaatio, Uniklubi, Ursus Factory, 51 Koodia, ja hyväl tuuril kans pari jotka unohtu. Kiinnitän kans paljon huomioo biisien sanoihin, ne on aik kivoi (ja oon monesti myös harmittunut kun (hyviä) sanoja ei löydy netistä).

Kaipaan ihmisiä jotka nauttii suomenkielisestä musiikista. anssi kela, cmx, pmmp, lasten haustausmaa, zen cafe, puhelinseksi, salaliitto, musta valo, ultra bra, maija vilkkumaa, teini-pää. mitä näitä nyt on. tunnettuja ja vähemmän tunnettuja. mulla ei oo koskaan oikeen ollu kavereita jotka ois jakanu mun musiikkimaun, ja vaikka oiski sietäny tai jopa tykänny niin ei varmaan samalla tasolla. ite aina obsessioin biisien sanotuksia, ja harmittaa kovasti jos niitä ei löydy netistä.

suomenkielinen musiikki on parasta musiikkia.

When I am listening to songs in Finnish or whatever, I often get stuck up on translating some of the words to english. Not like in an "I cant think of a translation" kind of way, but in an "I wonder how translating this like that would affect the flow of the song" kind of way.

Anyways, today I was listening to a song that had the words "olen surullinen", or "I am sad" in English. I noted how the Finnish version is much longer than the English one, that "sad" translates to "surullinen", a much longer word.

Then I that rabbit hole of a thought went a bit further, and I realized that the the Finnish word for "sadness" is much shorter, "suru", even though it is longer in English.

A nice enough thought on its own, but the hole goes deeper. I went on to think about why this is, and realized that in English, the adjective "sad" is the base form from which the language derives the other forms. In Finnish though, the base form is "sadness", which basically is the essence of being sad, the noun, from which the language gets the other words. And from this perspective of having the noun be the base form, being sad could be interpeted as having the essence of being sad. Thats what the "-llinen" ending in "surullinen" (the adjective, the feeling) means, having something or similar.

Not really sure if there is a point to any of this, just reflecting on how different languages "think" and also discovering a part of why translating songs between English and Finnish is so hard.

Im trying to get somewhere but my cat just decided to snuggle up against me.

... I guess im not going

9. en minäkään erottanut harjaa kammasta kun ehkä 17 vuotiaana

10. Kuka vieläkään erottaa noi eri sitrushedelmät toisistaan?

Seuraavaksi Helsingissä opettavan opettajan valitusta typerästä lehtijutusta.

1. No voi voi

2. Oppilaat puhuu keskenään! Se on hyvä! Kun mä olin alakoulussa 1990-luvulla niin ei tasan puhuttu eri kotikieliä puhuvien tyyppien kanssa. (Mä puhuin ja sainkin parhaat kaverit silleen.)

3. Stadin slangi on syntynyt ihan samalla tavalla ja nykyään sitä kyllä arvostetaan. Pitääkö vaan olla vanha kielimuoto että saa olla olemassa?

4. Voi vittujen kevät nyt. Kauheen keskeisiä sanoja on tähän valittu! [sarkasmi]

5. Ei munkaan oppilaat varmaan tiedä kasarin ja padan eroa MUTTA

6. Mun oppilaat osaa sanoa "mulle tuli kurja mieli tosta mitä sä teit", ja sellaista ei TASAN osattu esim kymmenen vuotta sitten

7. Tässäkin jutussa taas sit syytetään sitä kun vanhemmat ei lue lapsilleen ja siksi on nykynuoriso pilalla. Voisko olla niin että ei oo kuulkaa ennenkään kaikki lukenu lapsilleen, ei ne suomenkielisetkään vanhemmat. Mut nyt on hyvä tehdä juttu siitä miten vieraskielisyys tuhoaa Kauniin Suomen Kielemme

Once I had a dream where I flew to an unspecified part of the USA for a day trip, and one of the methods of identifying it as America was that the highway was racially segregated

4) from what I've learned from all the queer spaces I've been in, the boxes dont actually exist and the best spaces are the ones that dont put you into a box, and you kind of forget that the boxes exist in the first place. Straight is just another sexuality, and a queer space that doesnt make a divide between cishet and queer people feels usually the most comfortable. Just people facing each other as people, not as members of a gender or a sexuality.

Now that I read this again it doesnt actually read like an added point to this list, more just me dumping my thoughts. I kinda like it that way.

I'm kind of at a point where the "queer spaces" i feel safest in are the ones that have a pet cishet dude or two hanging around

I saw this too and it's about half a kilogram of THC per day per capita. Tallin as a whole would need around 750 million kilograms of THC yearly...

or about this much.

Residents of Tallinn apparently are all cannabis georg who smoke *checks notes* 48 480 blunts a day (per person), according to Helsingin Uutiset
