All mammals have a baby-phase. Except giraffes. A newborn giraffe looks just like a fully grown giraffe, just smaller. I'm sure there's a reason for this 🦒🤔

Dreaming about bookshops is my thing. I usually buy something that does not actually exist, and sometimes begin reading it. Waking up before finishing my dream book is the worst! Why can't there really be History of Interior Decorating in medieval church latin?? 😖📚

Share a television show that raised you (When I was 8, I thought that Make It So was a common phrase in the english language. I still feel that it should be)

I've listened more of the music that feels like Me than I have for the past 6 months. It really is kinda sad that I can only my myself when I succumb to alcohol. It shouldn't have to be this way. I know I can't do anything about it but I'll mourn it now when I start to feel the alcohol evaporating

Time travel keeps coming up in my mind. If I did, and I changed something, how would I know to change it? The inevitability of time, there's something crushing and also something comforting about it. On one hand there's nothing I could do... But also on the other hand, there's nothing I could do.

I started thinking, what would I do if I went back in time. For whatever personal reason the first thing that popped in my head was that I'd save Peter Farquhar. Would he want me to save him? Well I'm pretty damn sure that he wouldn't want to be murdered! But why him? Well why the hell not him??

Suddenly not remembering the name of a band I've liked for 35 years 😅 Also, realizing that I've liked a band for 35 years! 😂 Also also, realizing that I've been alive to like something for over 35 years. Happily looking back on a life well lived, it doesn't get as much recognition as it should ❤️

Oh god I just realized why I drink I'm giving up on my life to take care of my parents in their old age. Everything I've dreamt of, everything i desire, even the little things every day, just so my parents don't have to be put into a nursing home. Everything. As small as orange juice in the morning

It's -24c with blasting winds, and I had to go to the shops! 😨 It was amazingly nice though. My new parka kept me so warm that I even sweated a little bit... It only cost me 50 euros! A good coat and good value for my money. Excellent for a lovely evening stroll in the South Pole 😄

Happy New Year!! (terms and conditions will apply when you least expect it...) I'm very resolute but not about anything specific. I've found that to be the best way.

A dream! I had a pepper grinder that made me travel in time... But each grind would only take me 15 minutes back or forth, so I had to grind like a lunatic just for one day. Waking up, I realized the joke. My subconsciousness is a total clown 🙄 #Grindset

Pope Leo seemed a bit nervous during his first Christmas Mass but who can blame him. I'd be a bit jittery too if I was performing live to over a billion people. That's more than 2 billion eyes, all staring at you 👀 It all went well though. 😊

Some books become seasonal for no reason. - Truman Capote only between January and March - Decamerone is strictly for springtime - Septembers are dedicated to Sherlock Holmes - John le Carré's Night Manager is a Christmas book There is no logic in this 😁📚

Winter Solstice. The ultimate darkness. Just a couple of miserable hours of daylight, dimmed by thick grey clouds. But tomorrow we start heading towards the light again. I love you, sun! I miss you! I hope to see you soon ☀️💝

Just noticed that was my first finnish post and now I wonder why. Even tho I master finnish better than the average joe I still use english on internet. And (sorry!) I can't help but notice that I master english better than average joe too. Not that it matters though. A lot of things don't matter.

Ukki kuoli kun isä oli vielä liian pieni edes tajuamaan sitä, ja koko elämänsä hän on keskittynyt tutkimaan sitä miten hän menetti isänsä. Mutta en voi olla ajattelematta että ukki ei erityisemmin arvostaisi sitä. Itse ainakin haluaisin tulla muistetuksi siitä kuinka elin enkä siitä kuinka kuolin.

This is a good time to list severely underrated actors that need more appreciation - Xander Berkeley - David Dencik - Timothy Spall - Ronald Möller - Samuli Jaskio Ok you might argue that Spall is already very much appreciated. But - and I genuinely and firmly believe this- he should have more!!

It's my grandfather's 111th birthday. (he's not here to see it, obviously) My father insisted we have a toast with the strongest alcohol I've ever come across. I'm hearing colors. Send help.

I searched #Brexit as the 10 year anniversary is only 6 months away, wondering if anyone is even talking about it anymore lol... Ok you guys are still whining 🙄 Look, you CHOSE to believe the Brexit Bus. All info was available, and you chose leave. You chose. It's been 10 years, move on already 🙄

Hang on, hang on... @nicksterj.bsky.social is it your birthday? And you never said! Happy birth!! 🥳🥂

Day 1 of snow: How lovely, this is just the thing, look at those pretty flakes dancing! 😊 Day 3 of snow: Ok that's enough of that, I'd very much like the summer back now, if you don't mind 😐 But not until next April... I know I can make it, but I won't like it!

Today I learned that there are people, lovely well-meaning people, who think that Madonna's Like A Prayer is about praying. They even go as far as singing it in churches Oh sweetie... We need to sit down, have a nice cup of tea, and then I'll tell you something that you might not be ready to hear

Xmas season is approaching and soon people are gonna be doing that "Rudolph had antlers so she must have been a girl lol" thing, and it has never stopped annoying me. Ok, kids, gather around. Reindeer physiology isn't all that simple. Yes it is true that bulls drop antlers and does keep them...

I love and hate the fact that we are used to seeing this. It's a view of another planet. Another planet! We're sitting in our cozy little homes on Earth and seeing what it's like on Mars. We've never been able to do this before in the entire human history. We shouldn't get jaded, this IS a big deal

A movie you've seen more than 7 times with a GIF (More like 70 times... When I was a kid, I had it on video and I just couldn't get enough of it. I bet my parents were very confused 😂)

I've had a project for over a month now. I'm making an apple and a pear out of papier-mache. I'm in no hurry whatsoever. Maybe I'll finish them this year, maybe I won't. It's fun. I like fun. We should all have fun 😊🍎🍐

A vampire that isn’t Dracula. (Unless he counts as a wizard, of course 🙃)

What's the weirdest thing I think I've ever done? I searched how to send mail to prisoners coz I watched a documentary about a crime & I wanted to tell a prisoner how much he sucked. I mean,he's is such a waste of dna that it's just ridiculous. I never did send it but I still think I should have.

Yeah I'm fucking drunk. Ask me anything though, and I'll probably answer 😅

Actually i'll do a declaration. Hear me, Walking Dead fans! If/when zombie apocalypse happens. you will never be Rick or Michonne or any of the heroes. You will be Gregory. You will only look after yourself and betray anyone just for a couple of more seconds of life. And you know it. YOU KNOW IT!

Ok hear me out: David Dencik is amazing. He really is. I've never seen him do a bad performance and I've seen him in a ton of things. But you don't have to take my word for it, go and watch his stuff yourself Please, do go watch this stuff! I'm dying to talk to someone about Men And Chicken 😅🐔🐶🐭🐮🦉

What's it like inside my head? (if you can tell who that is without googling, you will win my undying 🤩)

Yeah... I knew this would happen. I can't keep the cork shut. This is what happens when you give a drink to someone who shouldn't have one. Stopping is so fucking difficult that I don't even know when I have the ability to try again. At least I still feel the shame, I suppose that's something.

Shakespeare rhymes perfectly. It's the English language pronunciation that has changed. Don't blame the writer, blame the time.

Ever think about how much we actually don't know about the past? Like, people think about the Stone Age and say that cavemen had names like Ug and Arg. But we don't know that. They could've all had 9-syllable names and we would have no idea! We can guess and keep guessing all day but we don't KNOW.

Drop an old person you're going to turn into in the future.

October weather continues delightfully warm 😊 Maybe this year Halloween will actually be Halloween-y instead of snow all over the place. It's the main reason Finland has never really got into Halloween: by the time 31st arrives, it usually looks more like Christmas. But not this year! I hope... 😇🎃

I had quit drinking. Yes, again... I have a bit of a problem with alcohol and it was never a secret. I dealt with the Force of Habit, I dealt with the Thirst, and I was doing well. Then, family comes along and gives the Pressure "Have a drink, it's a special day, you have to or we will feel bad!!"

So apparently another rapture came and went, and here we still are. How many raptures is that now? If we only count the ones in this decade 😄 I know I'm not much of a theologian, but wasn't the whole end of the world thing supposed to be one and done? How come we get to go around again and again? 🙃

Watching stand-up, I have noticed that hecklers aren't really making a proper effort. The whole point is to make the comedian lose the plot, but even a beginner isn't bothered by "You suck!" or "I did your mom!" But if the comedian finds immediate witty banter to "I WANT TO EAT MORE SOUP!!"... 👏👏👏

Post a random Star Trek image

Ok please hear me out. Night Manager by John le Carré, it is - at least partially - a parody of the British royal family in the early 90's. It has to be. Once you see it, you can't un-see it. Or maybe I've read The Royals by Kitty Kelley too many times. Even if I'm wrong, I can never un-see it 😳

Trying to get a hang of a foreign language by listening other people speak it. So far, my knowledge of the turkish language is: Good morning, Owl, Darling, Onion and Thyme. But I still have to agree that they are useful words to know. Especially owl 🦉

I was told from the most reliable source that I can talk about finnish politics. Let's see... It's all 💩! For whatever reason other nations depict Finland as some magical wonderland but actually it's all complete 💩! Where do you guys gets this idea that Finland has it all figured out? Coz we don't

Remember Tormund in Game of Thrones? Yeah you do. People always comment on his massive beard. But as someone who has seen Kristofer Hivju in a ton of scandinavian productions, let me tell you; there's way less beard than you think. The dude has a massive alpha-chad jaw that you could use an anvil 😳

After a couple of drinks I get confrontational and I don't like that. Anyway, just so you know: I do have political opinions which mainly involves calling every single politician a 💩. I just don't think here anyone wants to hear about it as you guys aren't very invested in finnish politics 😂

Last day of August. Everything is lush green. Ripe red apples are weighing down the branches. A cricket still giving a nocturnal concert. Wind has a cool edge though. Only a month and my view will be filled with reds and yellows. No more crickets, no more apples. And then, snowflakes dance down.

Drop some skulls 😁💀

A drink, a tasty sandwich and a marathon of Atik Ailesi videos. I'm learning so many new things!! Özgür is a special forces commando putting his skills into pampering his family, and Burcu is a master chef making michelin star meals with just a simple wood stove. I might get into camping... 🤔⛺

I often hear people talk about baby goats. You know, there is an actual word for a baby goat.... But it has been used as a word for a child for so long that people seem to have forgotten that it has another meaning. It's kinda funny when you think about it. 🐐👶 Something to tell the kids 😁
