Yeah your city is cool. But has Soviet cosmonaut and first man in space Yuri Gagarin ever planted a tree there?

Imposter Syndrome as a native person is very real, especially if you're reconnecting or white-presenting.

Whenever pretendians with large platforms built on their "heritage" are outed as liars, it can affect actual natives mental health - which is why pretendians are such a huge issue.

To all natives with Imposter Syndrome, it's hard but you know your heritage and who you are - don't let liars take that away from you, especially when they want to be you.

A bit strange feeling of living in Lithuania while looking like... Lithuania

people who are so casual about Project 2025 are baffling to me especially online leftists. for people who claim to know so much you don't seem to catch on they while yes, Project 2025 had been implemented in pockets throughout the country, it's not even the worst it can be. trump has made it quite clear that he wants a dictatorship & he's a vengeful person. he has openly stated he will go after anyone he doesn't like. anyone who opposes him in any way will be deemed an enemy. what's wild is this isn't even the worst part of Project 2025!!

you think we have it SO BAD right now. that we're already a fascist state as bad as North Korea. bruh, people have been FILMED setting the american flag on fire in protests. people's livelihoods, lives, & families have been destroyed for less in fascist countries. trump wants that kind of violence in this one.

anyone making it seem like Project 2025 won't make much of a difference here is extremely delusional & ironically comes from a place of privilege. it's weird having to point this out.

this country as it is is NOT perfect, it sucks. it's steeped in blood & there are so many problems that are solvable but the elite just doesn't want to solve because it won't benefit THEM. i totally get it. that said... at least you can publicly mock our politicians without having to worry about being murdered by the state for it.

please take Project 2025 seriously. we can't let trump win. check your registration status many times & make sure you register correctly, since some states like Texas don't allow you to register online. the best way to do it is in person. CHECK CONSISTENTLY & OFTEN. vote early of you can. make a day of it, bring your friends, whatever. just VOTE!!!

Just what is it with the Honkai games and Finnish names? First we have Welt Yang whose real name is Joachim Nokianvirtanen* and now we have Sampo Koski. These are some very Finnish names, especially Sampo’s.

Sampo is not only a common Finnish first name but it is also the name of a magical object which could grant you riches in the Finnish national epic poem Kalevala (from the early 1800s).

Koski is just a common surname which roughly translates to ’rapids’.

What’s more interesting is that these two names have been put together. In Kalevala, there is this character called Louhi from Pohjola (the North) who fights with Väinämöinen for the sampo while on a boat at the sea. So the fact that they’ve paired the name ’Sampo’ with the name ’Koski’ is either just one hell of a coincidence or a wellplayed Kalevala reference by Hoyoverse. Or then I’m just reading too much into it.

*Joachim Nokianvirtanen is an interesting one, and also a little funny, since no one in Finland is actually named Nokianvirtanen. Like, that’s not a real last name according to our Digital and Population Data Services Agency (DVV). Hoyo seems to just have taken our most well known brand, which is Nokia, and one of our most common last names, which is Virtanen, and glued them together. Although, Nokianvirta is a river in Finland, so I guess there’s that. It is also worth pointing out that Joachim isn’t that usual of a name for a Finn. In fact, according to DVV, it is an extremely rare name. While Joachim might not be a Finnish name in sense, we do have a bit more of Finnish-y version of it, which is Joakim, and there are a good number of people who have Joakim as their name.
