"norwegian wood/this bird has flown" is such an insane beatles song actually. john lennon is just like yeah i was having an affair and i went over to this girl's house but then she didn't have sex with me so i fucking burned her house down. i am a completely normal person with no issues

#the beatles #music #john lennon #beatles #norwegian wood #you can even interpret it as the girl trying to drop hints about wanting sex but him not picking up on it #oh and norwegian wood is the name of a cheap wood paneling that was common in apartments around then #so he's also calling her decor tacky on top of everything else #and in the beginning of the song he's implying that she tricked him somehow by inviting him over and then not having sex with him #all in all the whole song comes off as just the pov character (aka john) being a prick. which to be fair he was #he did not actually burn someone's house down irl to be clear. but he did have extramarital affairs and the song is based on one of them #are there beatles fans on here who are going to cancel me for saying that #well whatever. john sucked and was annoying idc #beep

attended another pride event!! it was a kvenish + southern sami brooch workshop! it was very cozy and fun and i made a kvenish style brooch out of salmon skin!

#and got myself the kvenish style progress flag. very excited about it #i met up super early because there were limited spots and i thought obviously lots of people want to attend #we were maybe like. 4 attendants so it was a very intimate workshop haha #but it's also really super rainy today so i suspect not many people were tempted to leave the house today #there were also excerpts read from the first explicitly gay norwegian novel odd lyng #which was written by a kvenish man so that was also very interesting #culture!!!!!

Best character with a color name

Round 1 Poll 16

From the submitter :

*Ianthe is ancient Greek for violet, as in both the colour and the flower. She has some purple colour theming, since the planetary system she's from has an assigned colour for each planet, except hers gets both purple and gold as a special treat. She also has purple eyes in the beginning but they change part way through. Personality-wise, she's terrible, just the worst. She's awful and the author has promised she is going to get worse in the last book. Unfortunately I find her compelling and I enjoy watching the other characters having to deal with her garbage behaviour. She's convinced she's the main character but everyone keeps interrupting her villain monologues.

From the submitters :

**Kobolt is the Norwegian word for Cobalt, like in Cobalt Blue (the colour on his jumper) He's from a Norwegian comic and not really internationally popular but... please give him a chance he's really amazing :)

Rosemaling (Norwegian art form)

Rosemaling can be painted on anything, mostly we see it on objects such as cake boxes, chairs, cabinets etc.

Here you can see the traditional art form on walls, roofs & beds. During this time, rosemaling is quite common in norwegian houses, but mostly for smaller objects. However a while back the art form was also used to decorate houses, curches, cabins etc.
