truck nuts seem pretty cool, I have been considering them for my bicycle seat – apparently you can find ones that glow red and double as a rear light

I saw a photo of a shampoo bottle from the US once. Apparently the shampoo was tactical. I have been trying to figure out what that means.

A friend of mine in Bergen once got a letter addressed to “Den store stygge blokken på Laksevåg” (The big ugly apartment building in Laksevåg), so it might work in urban areas as well.

I think this way of dividing it up is giving rulers like Bolsonaro more credit than they deserve. Both soft and hard power tools belong in the belt - but only an idiot poser tries to accomplish things with hard power, when soft power will do. A different kind of idiot thinks that hard power is never necessary.

Yeah… that new round of mobilization just seems more and more like it’s going to happen.

ah, yeah that makes sense

Yep. The science isn’t always accurate, but the values are good.

Back when it ran, environmentalism and anti-authoritarianism weren’t as clearly tied to the left as it is today.

I remember reading a think piece defending tourist traps, saying that it’s better that tourists concentrate there than spread out in search of more “authentic” places.

Where is this and how would you pronounce the “g”?

Also, you made me think about a story about a shop in a southern Norwegian city, where the owner put up a sign around lunch time: “e æ a å eder” (I am off to eat), the shop owner across the street saw it and made his own sign saying “e æ a e å” (I am off as well (lit. I am off I also))

Yeah, I was just going to be mysterious and write sniggers in Norwegian, but I guess there’s no point in that now :c

Here in Norway, at least, the hytte is more and more something that exists mainly for the upper middle class and up.

The dish seems to have evolved differently, though. In Norway it’s basically diced potatoes, carrots and other root vegetables, leeks and some kind of meat – often ham hock if you want to keep it cheap, or sausage if you want to keep it cheap and simple. Spiced with salt and pepper, boiled to a mush and traditionally served with flatbrød

It’s still a really good choice if you want something that’s cheap, healthy and simple to make – especially since our stores sell frozen packages of pre-diced vegetables precisely for this purpose.

Name sounds a lot like Lobscouse, which is a northern European thing, not just northern German. In Norway we call it Lapskaus.

Krtek! This was on Norwegian children’s TV when I was little :)

This might be the most dweeby thing I’ve seen. I love it :)

What I don’t get is why we aren’t seeing this in his approval ratings. Are they just lagging? Is his hard base like 40% of the population?

😢

good point, that might make it more likely

I so hope this will be available in Europe outside the EU

I don’t expect it, though :L

Sweden has long been the most right-wing of the Nordic countries  – at least when it comes to economics
