[ifindus]

Is blåfjell au gonna make a comeback this year?🗻💙

Maybe?? Don't think we really have a plot or anything, but drawing Norway in blånisse attire is always fun 💙

Du e kul viss du såg på blåfjell når du va liten B)

[nellipusen]

skal innrømme at om jeg hadde gått i fjellet og ropt og ekkoet hadde svart med å true meg hadde jeg også blitt litt nervøs

[bees-n-bones]

å ja, de tre kjønnene

[spinosacha]

Jul på Månetoppen gir så mye… de kule kostymerne, musikken (😩), plottet og karakterne og the overall worldbuilding. Atmosferen er så spesiel og levende! Jul på månetoppen will always be famous<3

Wait actually further on that "nisse" thing. So in Norwegian folk belief there's a common concept, called a couple different things:

«tuft», «tuftekall», «tomt», «gardsbonde», «godbonde», «haugebonde», «gardrud», «rudkall» «rundbonde» (via wikipedia)

now I won't claim to understand every name, but some of them are like adjective-farmer, and "rud" is a suffix used for farms that were abandoned after the Black death. (source: me, hi I'm Norwegian this is taught in like fourth grade)

variations include (via wikipedia)

fjøsnisse - fjøs: house for "fe" which means like, cows and similar, sheep, pigs etc. (google translate just lied to me so please tell me the English word)

skipsnisse - ships (boats)

kirkenisse - church

hagenisse - garden. (see also: cobolds, garden gnomes, dwarfs)

in Norwegian jul tv you'll find most fjøsnisser, such as in "jul i Blåfjell" (jul in Blue Mountain) - a jul calendar tv program. I think also most cozy jul books too, but please prove me wrong.

translations & equivalents include:

tomte - sweden

goblin, gnome - England

Wichtel, Heinzelmännchen, Kobold - Germany

jólasveinar - Iceland

Contexts of "Nisser" in Norway

national-romance, because the period was about making a national identity it's not surprising they pulled up with nisser. Ibsen wrote plays with them. (via wikipedia)

the era of enlightenment. Wergeland portrayed nisser as bigoted and ignorant, as opposed to elves. (via wikipedia)

(pagan/heathen¹) yule times (jul), from as early as year 900 in icelandic & Norwegian culture it was for example tradition to set out porridge with butter for nisser, if you didn't they'd be pissed. (via NRK)

1. I think it's pagan/heathen, though 900 was during the Christening of Norway (year 850-1100) (sources: store norske leksikon, norgeshistorie)

(and cause apparently it's not common knowledge, "christmas" (originally "jul" or "yule" (which it still is called in Norway today)) does originate in Norse mythology and Nordic tradition, with supernatural spirits and animal sacrifice (source: store norske leksikon), and beer (ref that NRK article)) (and no I don't care if you ""disagree"" with history unless you are an actual historian). (and I don't care about christian aspects of the holiday today, bother someone else).

Målet for dagen var Shibuya Blue Cave Illumination、青の洞窟

Det er absolutt sant at det var en fin blå opplysning, litt som jul i blåfjell? kanskje ikke helt da, men det ble veldig intenst syntes vi. Fikk nesten vondt i øynene etter hvert, og som forventet var folkemengden gedigen.

when your little gremlin is old enough, you need to show her linus/jul i svingen!🤩

I don't have much "nostalgia " for that series. I was "too old" when it aired 😅

However! Amalie jul and Jul i blåfjell are my childhood series, so little gremlin is getting those 🙌

5, 15 og 28 🤠

5. Is there a song that always makes you cry, no matter what? what is it?

Er faktisk et par av dem, så ei lita liste;

Hufsa Danser fra Jul i Blåfjell.

Everything’s Alright av Laura Shigihara

Fix You av Coldplay

Yuki Song av Deep Forest

15. what is a song you are obsessed with at the moment?

To Loose My Life av White Lies.

28. Most underrated band or artist?

Hmm. Så greia er… hot take, men jeg tror egentlig ikke på underrated fordi, før eller siden møter du folka som er like entusiastiske for det samme bandet/artisten.

Når det er sagt, syns jeg at folk som liker Gåte burde være like mye fans av Garmarna.

jeg ser på blåfjell for første gang på mange år, å jeg må bare si, han postmannen er husband material🤌🏼 green flags all the way😍✅

Faktisk. Kåre er beste kar'n 💙 Husker jeg var overraska sjøl da jeg så den i fjor. At vi hadde så god representasjon av mannfolk allerede i 1999??
