I love the idea of a modern runic script, suitable for contemporary Scandinavian languages. Would you care to elaborate on your thoughts on this?

Whatever type of chilli mayo I feel like making that day. Or remoulade, the sweet Danish mayo-based condiment with chopped pickles and curry powder.
Someone I knew was living in an old building with old-timey fuse boxes placed outside the apartments. When she got tired of her idiot neighbours partying on a weekday night for the millionth time despite being asked to dial it down she finally had enough and went to the fuse box and took away all the fuses to the neighbour’s apartment.
She never had trouble with noise again.
I vaguely remember playing it a little back in the day
In Danish we have “you can’t cut the hair off a bald guy”
I’m shivering imagining how cursed the content on the EU branded social media apps was. I’m having nightmarish visions of Eldritch horror levels of neoliberal cringe.
I’ve received checks three or four times in my life. I’ve never written one. As a kid I had a physical paper booklet for the savings account I put my birthday money into. The only way I can get to own a house is by winning the lottery. I remember when small shops had manual credit card machines that would transfer your account details to a slip of paper. I also remember when local stores would give credit to people from the community. I get low-key annoyed when I have to use cash instead of digital payments. My retirement plan is not to retire.
If you’re drilling six holes a year, a cheap-ass power drill is going to work just as fine for you as the expensive one intended for professional use.
Tides of History is a very well-produced history podcast that deals with ancient history. It tells history in an engaging way and is founded in recent scholarship.
Podcasting is Praxis, a funny politics podcast made by British communists.
Blowback, all the praise heaped upon it is absolutely justified. Listen to it.
We Are Not So Different, an entertaining podcast about medieval history. It has a leftist outlook on things and treats medieval people like people and avoids romanticising as well as looking down on them.
A People’s History of Ideas. An amazingly detailed history of the Chinese revolution with offshoots into international Maoism. If you want to listen to an episode about how CPC safehouses worked in Shanghai in the early 1930’s, this is a podcast for you.
First person shooter but leftist instead of imperialist, with campaigns based on historical revolutionary struggles
Seagulls. These fuckers shit on everything, they scatter your garbage all over the place and they’re noisy.
And these tiny black insects that are small enough to get into picture frames and computer screens. Fuck then.
And that Brazilian penis fish that swims into your urethra. That im thing is just the stuff of nightmares.
You can pick a fight with a wasp and win it. But mosquitoes sneak up on you and once you notice the little bastards it’s already too late.
Southern Jutland for the redneck backwardness and incest/zoophilia, the island of Lolland for the rural poverty and hopelessness.
Brussel sprouts. Lots of people hate them because they got them overcooked as children but they are so pretty and so delicious if prepared properly.
Killing children is bad indeed which is why the occupation must end. All violence in Palestine comes from there. If you don’t want the violence of decolonisation, don’t commit the atrocities of colonisation.
He’ll bear witness to the suffering of Palestine while voting to give the zionist entity more cluster munitions.
Palestinian resistance: “absolutely condemn”, “horrifying attack”, “no justification”, “it must end now”
Zionists doing Nazi shit in Gaza: “a war crime”
Fuck off you old piece of shit
What kind of parents choose to bring their children to live on stolen land in a war zone?
Is that before or after they throw them out of the incubators?
The closest I can come is blackletter or fraktur scripts that were once used for generic languages. As far as letters go they are silly and overcomplicated, with Latin scripts being far easier to read and more adaptable to different visual styles.
With that being said, they do have their own old-timey charm and there is something satisfying in being able to pick up a old book in blackletter and read it when you know that most people can not.
Fun fact: Blackletter was only used for Germanic languages. If a text contained non-Germanic passages it was normal to set those in Latin letters while the rest was set in blackletter.
