I swear I tested this a bunch, restarted the app several times, and it would not work. However, now that I started it again about 30 minutes later and tried to zoom, it works flawlessly.
I’ll edit the post to let people know it’s a user problem. 🤦🏼♀️
Hm. I showed this to my husband, who immediately pointed out that it’s an anti-tank mine and thus couldn’t be foot-activated.
Most reindeer live North of the Arctic Circle, where the sun does not rise above the horizon in winter months. I suspect most summer days are brighter than the few hours of twilight the reideer get in December.
It took me far too long to understand the wtf-ness of this.
In Finnish, ‘Jussi’ (the Finnish ‘J’ is similar to ‘Y’ in English) is a common men’s name. Think John or similar. It carries some connotations from classic literature to peasants, hard work, and sisu.
And “pussi” simply means a bag, specifically a simple one usually made out of paper or plastic.
The branding is supposed to invoke an idea of breakfast buns that are traditional, simple, and full of energy to carry you through your day.
Ah. Well, perhaps I ought to amend it to an average Northern European, then. There are definitely no true scorpions in the Nordics, although we probably have some tiny pseudoscorpids around somewhere. Although I’ve hiked all over Southern Spain and never spotted a scorpion there either.
…which probably says more about my perceptiveness or lack-there-of than anything else.
/edited for spelling
Huh. There being scorpions everywhere except the Arctic is such a wild statement to your average European. Never have I ever seen a scorpion outside a terrarium despite having traveled and hiked extensively in various countries around the continent.
Are they truly that common in the Americas, even in more temperate climates?
I would recommend soppa365.fi for your recipe needs. It compiles recipes in Finnish from several sources. You can usually find something that works with little to no adjustment.
By definition, if Finland is included, we’re talking about Fennoscandia and, if you add in Iceland, it’s the Nordic countries.
Denmark is usually included in Scandinavia, but technically it isn’t part of the Scandinavian peninsula.
However, I know that outside Europe the distinctions aren’t all that important.
I would probably pick Denmark as a favourite based solely on their legal right to hit ice-crossing Swedes with sticks. And Swedes suck balls (source: am Finnish).
However, to be somewhat pedantic, Scandinavia either refers to Sweden, Norway, and Denmark, or just Norway and Sweden (the actual Scandinavian peninsula). Finland, Iceland, and the Baltic countries are not part of Scandinavia.
Finally picked up a hands-free leash and a running belt to try running with my pup. Three short runs in (to acclimate us both), and he’s super excited to see the harness come out of the drawer. It feels good to have a running buddy.
I’ve been off the wagon for years, ever since the pandemic and some lingering long covid symptoms, but I think the pup’s excitement might be enough to motivate me to be consistent.
Totality, as in the entirety, of the Alhambra is in the photo.
The most recent eclipse, which is probably what is causing the confusion here, was not visible in Spain.
Maintained camping spots in the Nordics usually have an axe for splitting firewood into smaller pieces. There is often a simple saw in the woodshed as well.
//edit: I cannot spell.
No one.
Our one-year-old pup was genuinely upset about having to sleep in the same room as us on a weekend trip to the countryside.
At home he sleeps in the study and kicks up a fuss if anyone disturbs him by existing in ‘his’ room after 10 pm.

Another Finn here.
Crate-training itself is not illegal in Finland. There are, however, requirements for crate size and limits on how long a dog can be kept in a crate.
My one-year-old pup is crate trained and had enforced crated naps as a puppy. He is a very active breed that tends to have trouble managing their own excitement level, especially when young. These days the crate sits open and the pup elects to sleep in it most nights, and sometimes during the day if he wants to be left alone.
In addition, he has a collision-tested car crate that keeps him safe while traveling. He treats it like his puppy crate and just snoozes through most drives.
I don’t see an issue with crate training if it is done with the dog’s needs in mind. Crate is not a convenient storage to keep your pet in, and a dog should not be left crated for an entire work day. They need space and enrichment in their days to be happy and healthy.
I feel like, for many, the choice isn’t voting for Trump if they’re disillusioned with Biden, but just not voting for Biden. I’m aware the result of inaction is likely the same as voting for Trump, but cognitively it’s easier to stomach.
I’m genuinely curious to know where in the world you live. I would be horrified if someone was peeking under the stalls or bothering people by knocking on the doors.
I would not use ‘laulu’ when talking about contemporary music, it sounds wildly dated. Laulu also tends to refer only the vocals, or that least comes off as dismissive of the rest of the piece.
Biisi indeed works with popular music but is not appropriate for classical compositions (sävellys). Instead of ‘biisi,’ I would generally use ‘kappale.’ It does not, however, work for all pieces of art, one would not refer to a painting or a sculpture as ‘kappale.’
I mean… if you play video games for hours and hours, your brain will likely learn to play videogames better? Sure. I hardly see a correlation to mass murder here.
If you believe that action repetition is to blame for rewiring people’s brains to be more efficient at mass murder, why not blame the military, or hell, why not just start picketing outside your local airsoft or paintball places?
edit: he’ll into hell. I blame autocorrect.
It’s fun enough. There are enough different types of weapons and build paths that you can have a sizeable warband without having two people exactly alike that combat feels pretty fresh even after 20 hours. Legendary weapons spice things up further if you can take down the elite enemies in each new area.
The game does have a pretty slow pace, you have to grind your way through easier bounties to get money for gear and recipes. Your troupe has to rest daily and you have to feed, heal and pay all of your mercenaries. You will also have to learn and level professions on your characters because professions give actual combat bonuses in addition to food/materials/knowledge.
I’ve been playing co-op with my husband and it’s been fun. We got the tavern DLC for some fun alternative gameplay if combat becomes tiring. If you enjoy turn-based combat, lots of it, and fairly gritty survival difficulty, you’ll find Wartales fun.
