Absolutely Insane That I Have The Forgetting Things Brain Disorder And People Will Still Be Appalled

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.

gotta give this a reread but yes orwell wanted to express that revolution as a concept is a reactionary solution to the oppression incited by the ruling class while in the same vein acknowledging that there is no right or wrong way to protest the actions of the 1% BECAUSE they hold the power in the dynamic regardless of what action is taken.

the only way to take efficient action against such a force is to make the ruling class the minority and then pray to the heavens that the masses and majority may persevere over that minority. but we may not ever truly see that in full effect because unfortunately, if we didn't have any asshole 1%-ers in the world the good would simply be balanced out with some other type of evil. yk the whole, yin-yang, dark and light, order and chaos spiel ur gonna hear from me every damn time.

very funny to me when people act like animal farm and 1984 are revolutionary anti government texts that the Powers That Be dont want you to read when they have literally been a part of every standard middle/highschool english lit cirriculum in the usa and beyond for decades. precisely because theyre such convenient primers to propagandize that Commies = Bad. the government is quite literally making kids read them

the fact that we are firmly in a time where conservatives are like "the actual founding fathers, who were slaveowners, were not racist enough for my taste" is wild

The North is not off the hook. Not by a long shot.

"it's all in your head" correct! unfortunately I am also in there

hey! donate to uk trans charities today because it’s gonna be a rough one

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
