Me, looking for something to watch: "It's been two decades since I saw GRAVE OF THE FIREFLIES. Wonder if I should revisit?" Me, an hour into the film: 😭 Me, an hour after the film: 😭 Me, trying to fall asleep: 😭 Worst decision this year, guys.

The road goes ever on and on and sometimes it disappears for a bit.

Never heard of this bird before but now I'm invested.

Kakapo had a record-breaking breeding season and hatched 105 eggs!!! Considering there are only like 235 kakapo, that is a big deal!!!! Also, look at this baby!!!!!! www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/a...

Ooh, a really long half-time with a show? Let's never do this again. #ESPARG #worldcup

Ships coming into harbour and getting their crown of flags tells you that Fishermen's Day is soon upon us. By law, all ships must be berthed before midnight on Saturday, and they are not allowed to sail again until after 12 on Monday.

It is 7°C, nothing is green yet, there's a bit of snow in the mountains and it'll probably rain for the next 40 days. But the summer cabin is habitable again and it's still bright out at 23:00 so I don't care, I'm declaring summer.

The big news on this fine voting day in Iceland. Let's all hope that people will start behaving themselves as the night wears on.

It's lambing season at my in-law's farm, and there's slow tv available.

Gas station and view.

It's been a long while since we had news of a project change because of elf-dwellings and it's high time, I say. Article heading: Hot-water pipeline rerouted to avoid offending elves.

For PERFECTLY NORMAL REASONS, I have done so many Google searches today with the words 'salmon sperm facials' in thrm that I worry about the state of my algorithm.

My Helsinki hotel’s unsubstantiated claim about Finnland having the best drinking water in the world is quite offensive to my cultural identity, which is entirely based on ICELAND having the best drinking water in the world, actually.

There are few things better than stepping on undisturbed snow.

An Icelandic record from 1985 named 'Saturday Night'. No notes 🔥

My brother used to eat little corners off book pages. In the small library of the small town we lived in, I'd sometimes get a book with a few missing top corners, and I'd know he'd read it at some point. I wonder if any of them are still there and if people have puzzled over this.

The Polish team has a pierogi plushy! I repeat, THE POLISH TEAM HAS A PIEROGI PLUSHIE! Where is the online shop and who's going to take my money?

So thankful for winter Olympics while sick and vegging out on sofa. 7 year old daughter supports Canada because, and I quote, "They make the syrup." Can't argue with her logic.

So, I did not remember that Helen of Troy hatched from an egg after Zeus raped her mother in the guise of a swan but now, thanks to Strange Outrage on Internet, I do.

There are five ships sailing along the north and east of Iceland in a pattern, searching for capelin. It's a daily moment of mindfulness to check on their progress, provided by the Icelandic Marine Research Institute: skip.hafro.is

The Iceland Space Agency is on bluesky @icelandspace.bsky.social 🥳 Have followed, and will now wait excitedly until they start posting Iceland Space Things.

The Iceland Space Agency has a strangely busy logo. It fascinates me.

At least once a day, I think about the fact that the United States is trying to buy or steal our neighbours. That is an actual thing that's happening in my lifetime.

I have sensory issues with eating greasy or powdery food with my hands, but many, many cursed years went by before I figured out that I'm an idiot because the problem of crisps can be solved with chopsticks. Lo, I bring this knowledge to you who suffer but haven't received the same epiphany 😌

Tomorrow, 6 January, is the last day of Christmas in Iceland, simply called the Thirteenth. It's a good one because there is a lot of folklore attached to it (some of it is also said to apply to New Year's Day and/or Christmas Day). A little 🧵
