2024: Stuðlagil ravine on the river Jökla. Lucky the drone was handy as we had come down on the west side and you can see bugger-all from the farm there. Best to approach on the eastern side, park at Stuðlafoss, and then walk the remaining 2km up to the canyon.

Just about every "AKSHUALLY, this thing is SECRETLY PAGAN!" claim can be traced back to:
Protestants making shit up to try and "prove" whatever shit they decided to hate on was secretly Satanic.
German nationalists making shit up trying to "prove" that Christian holidays had no connection to anything Jewish.
People failing to understand that European converts to Christianity retained many of their old customs and traditions, because Jesus being Lord doesn't mean there's no dragons in that there lake or that the plant lore everybody knows is all bunk.
People making wild assumptions due to a failure to comprehend that similarities between traditions does not inherently imply connection between traditions.

I live in a small town and compliments on my mjölnir pendant always leave me curious and slightly afraid. Are you another hidden heathen in our little town? A white supremacist? A marvel fan? "Oh I have a tattoo of that!" So do I sir, but why did you get yours?

Not too long ago I made a post about the Sanded Church of Skagen that was abandoned due to being buried in sand, but the “sand problem” is much larger than the church.
If you look at Denmark on a map you might notice a white dot near the very top of the country.
That my friend is a huge sand dune that arose out of the sea 300 years ago and is slowly eating its way through the landscape at 18 meters a year.
And if you look closer you might notice that it’s heading straight for the towns Rannerød and Hulsig and when that happens no one will come to save them because the dune is protected. At least they’ll see it coming.
That means that in a few hundred years we won’t just have a sanded church, we’ll have sanded towns with more roofs and towers sticking out of the dune than any tourist bureau could wish for.
Because the dune is a very popular tourist spot. I myself have been to it a few times and it’s quite the experience for a child to suddenly be in a “desert” in Denmark.
If you feel sad for the people in the towns just remember that’s nature. The reason why the dune is protected is because the area used to have many more but people made an effort to destroy them and it fucked up the ecosystem in the area. The dunes leave moist wetland behind that loads of rare creatures thrive in.
So today the inevitable end of the towns are viewed as sort of romantic poetry about nature, the march of time and appreciating the now.
And isn’t it kinda beautiful? To know that something like this exists in the world that will destroy our towns, roads and railways that we could easily eradicate with our modern technology but we choose not to simply because we know it would be wrong.

Me: We Are All Mad Here is supposed to be reassuring. The Cat wants Alice to understand everybody in Wonderland is weird and that she is weird too. And that she shouldn’t feel bad for being weird. Because he too is weird. They’re all weird in Wonderland. That’s fine. That’s why she’s there. It’s such a cute moment of mutual understanding and it’s been turned into an edgy quote by edgy people. Do you get it?
