Also no one knows anything but the first line and the helmet and brain bursting bit. Swedish nazi: out of curiosity, where does he publicly stand on Israel/Palestine? Generally, these right wing types seem to be pro Israel on account of hating Muslims, but the Nazi salute is something else. I know his real beliefs is probably something like "put all the Jews and Muslims (and communists and...) in the desert, turn desert into glass".

I have been asked to give the damenes tale at my work julebord, and looking up examples online I have concerns. Some of these texts feel straight out of the 70s, if I wrote something like this and read it out sincerely I think my girlfriend would dump my castrated body in the fjord. And people give these at work.

And people give these at work. It's "supposed" to be an homage to women. It's generally not, since men as a group are assholes. Two options: either write an actual honest speech about how awesome women are, in general or specifically at your place of work; or go full nuclear. The last one is difficult to pull off but if done right hilarious. You should seek help from friends for feedback regardless. Also, since you won't do the old boys being boys "it's only a joke" speech, be prepared for Dålig Stämning among the worst men at the party.

damenes tale is absolutely supposed to be cheeky and funny. ideally it should be done in a way which pokes fun at gender relations and men's attitude to women/the gendered division of labour or how the shared ideology of the assembled influences attitudes to women in an absurd way. you can also go an erudite path, or if you just want to muddle through do something boring and play it straight - though in this case you'll also want to keep it as short as possible. the best literary example i can think of is actually from sangen om den røde rubin by agnar mykle, where the main character is attending business school and has damenes tale at their graduating dinner, where he does a "social-economic analysis on the utility function of women" which while facially extremely rude is clearly playing on how bizarre a lot of the social-economic analysis they've learned is and what assholes the men are. it's interesting that mykle, well-known to be the horniest man in norwegian literature, wrote it during the 1950s.

I'm sure that most of the ones given today are the right amount/style of humour and not quite so boomer brained as what's easily available on the first pages of Google. I am not completely sure why a foreigner like me was asked to give it, but the person organising the julebord is also not Norwegian so perhaps she was as confused by the concept as me. I think saying some nice things about women in general and those present particularly, poking fun at myself and men, and keeping it short is perhaps the safest route - if I can get a couple sensible chuckles and still have my colleagues willing to talk to me the next week I'll consider it a great success. When I began here we were a group of only men (happily there is a better gender balance now) so there is a good starting point to talk about. I had ideas for some more literary allusions but I'm not sure the audience and I are familiar with the same works so it could easily fall flat. I'll give that Mykle piece a read VIL, thanks!

The confiscated books were subsequently burnt. Finnlandisierung! And in a weirder twist, the publisher managed to salvage / hide 800 copies of the translated book, and he sold them to the local war invalid foundation, who then sold them on for a profit as a door-to-door business venture. The 50's were weird

Finnlandisierung! yeah there was a similar controversy about the same book in norway, with the publisher originally forced to destroy the remaining books as well. it basically broke mykle, who though a highly gifted novellist was also a bit of a neurotic mess to begin with, and he spent the rest of his life doing mainly puppet theater curiously sangen om den røde rubin is imo a clearly inferior novel to its predecessor, lasso rundt fru luna, which i think is a genuine literary masterpiece and plays on a lot of the same notes. imo the clear reason for the reaction coming to sangen om den røde rubin is that the women portrayed in that book as sexually engaged and even voracious (and sometimes - egads! - moderately kinky in various ways) were based on people who knew people who mattered, or at least people who could conceivably know people who mattered.

Doesn't Støjberg sagen mean that a minister saying stuff like that is legally speaking a directive that should be followed? In other news, Shah, the guy who ALLEGEDLY swindled billions from the Danish state is now in Denmark and being tried. And hearing about the case just makes it extremely clear that he's just a (very horrible) guy who got involved in the finance sector's shady parts. What annoys me is that we're treating this like a personal crime, instead of an industrial thing in the finance industry. Basically, what I'm saying is that finance is a cancer on society and should be abolished, possibly violently.
