We just found a book full of old German/Danish/Icelandic bonds and money from the early 1900s-1950s. While the German and Danish stuff all had angry eagles and old men in funny hats the Icelandic money all had chill landscapes printed on them.





e: German stuff for comparison:

He was originally named just "Wolf". I added the "gang" because he is clearly not a wolf, he is a cat, and Wolfgang is a name.

He also (doesn't) answer to

  • Prince Wolfgang
  • Colonel Wolfgang
  • Lord Quiverwhiskers
  • Twitchpaws
  • Talky Buddy
  • Sir Fluffalot
  • Sweet Potato
  • Rumbling Friend

Here he is having jumped on my back while I was leaning over, completely on his own initiative.

Latvian man sit at home tending coals, wishing for a fire.

At door, someone knocks.

"Knock knock" at door

Latvian man calls out "who is there"

From door someone says "potato"

Latvian man asks "potato who"

From door he hears "potato potato"

Latvian man turn back to coals, and say to himself "is lie."

I collect four-leaf clovers... the gods have been good to me the last four days... three fours and a badly formed five











For reference here's a well-formed five...



Eleven leaves on two stems



Who wants to play "Pattern Recognition"...?



There's three four-leafers there

And lastly... How I found out the Universe likes trolling...



The only time I found more than one of these was when I was around 8 years old, I found two 4-leaves and one 5-leaves, which added up to 13 total leaves and that's the day I gave up on luck and decided to take the reigns

If you like that, but it's too heavy for you, you have bands like Covet, who are very technical but play happy music.

In a similar vein, Proscriptor McGovern will be the god of extreme metal until someone can best him. He's getting on in years and I hope a new young Proscriptor will emerge.

Here's a live shot of what PMcG was capable of in the height of his career, a man playing drums faster than most professional drummers while screaming his lungs out.

Stalker is easily one of the best movies ever made, for so many reasons. The book it comes from is INCREDIBLE. The story behind how the movie got made (TWICE) is amazing. The fact that everyone died from cancer from making the movie in abandon chemical factories, is tragic. The ART is so loving high and amazing, ugh...I get chills thinking about that song....
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pP1QXKbhqr4

this used to be my wake up alarm

I highly recommend the book:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Roadside_Picnic


e, OH also stick with the movie till like 30 min in when it switches over to color, it's like a total tone change and everything becomes extremely beautiful.

I tried to watch Stalker and I was pretty bored but only because I've put hundreds maybe thousands of hours into the video game produced out of Ukraine, based on the book/movie.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S.T.A.L.K.E.R.

Every time i try to watch the movie I just go straight back to the zone "for real"

If you watch Stalker and fall in love with it, play the game.

That's true, but not all cat vocalizations are meows. When you see people talk about cats not meowing at each other, they mean meows specifically. They obviously vocalize.

Are Leprechauns gnomes, faeries, dwarves, or their own thing?

they're of the fae but are a unique subtype of faerie and are distinct from gnomes and dwarves who are nordic in origin instead of celtic


e: faeries can get weird, you can have tricksters, helpers and things with huge mouths that can swallow an entire cow. the bain sidhe are another kind of faerie that can kill the living with merely a screech

Well, I don't know. You've given me fantastic advice about the undead before is this really your area of expertise?

well nobody flippin pays me for it but i have spent a great deal of time reading myth and other esoteric writings on what would best be called "cryptids" if we exclude the idea of the supernatural. this includes things like angels, demons, ghosts, poultergeists, sheitan, oni, wendigo and so on

the word "fae" is best understood as a pseudo-taxonomical heading under which many fantastical creatures, or cryptids, are described in western pagan mythology. rumplestiltskin is an excellent example.

sprites are what most people imagine when they think of a faerie, a small humanoid with butterfly wings that glows at night. reports of will-o-the-wisps resembles reports of sprites, like how reports of gnomes resemble dwarves in many cases.

now it's important to understand that there is no hard evidence to substantiate any of these claims or reports, so it's just fun goof em ups. campfire stories, but they aren't, perplexingly, just that. world religions have in their holy books and mythology reports of this phenomena; the angels of the book of Ezekiel, the sorcerer-king Solomon binding the winds to his will, these "reports" are part of the western canon of the Abrahamic faiths
