Puns in Finnish often rely on the fact that due to the inflectional nature of Finnish and the fact that some suffixes look identical to each other you end up with lots of words that are homonyms (and also homophones to an extent although on the deeper level they can often be distinguished based on stress)

For an example, the nutrient mixes you sometimes get for plants are called “Kasviravinne” in Finland. That’s “kasvi,” plant, and “ravinne,” nutrient. So far so good. But “ravinne” is derives from the verb “ravita,” to nourish, using the suffix -nne, which (quoting from Wiktionary) “Forms nouns indicating that some essential element of the meaning of the root word is present in the meaning of the derived term.”

Incidentally -nne is also the second person plural possessive suffix BUT Finnish also has this register where you refer to people in the second person in the plural to signal formality. And the word “ravi” also means trot in the equestrian sense.

So thus: “Teidän kasviravinne” in Finnish can either mean “Your plant nutrient” or “Your plant trot.”

My favorite example of this is the one from a classic Fingerpori (a Finnish comic strip based entirely on puns) strip which was based on the fact that due to the fact that the latter is derived from the former, the elative of “kivi” (stone) and partitive of “kives” (testicle) are both “kivestä,” meaning that the phrase “kivestä hakkaamalla” could be read as either “by hitting something out of stone” (could also be read as “by carving out of stone”) or “by hitting a testicle”

It’s one of those phrases that has wormed itself into my brain so whenever I run a fantasy RPG that has dwarves in it I’ll always make it a point to state that the mountain homes of the dwarves were built “kivestä hakkaamalla”

Apparently neopets not only managed to ditch the NFT bros, but with the closure of the Jumpstart brand weeks ago, neopets is now completely independent for the first time since the early 2000′s, got millions in a new investment deal and are currently installing a flash simulator so that all their games and animations work again.

reading the receipts on how bethesda resorted to fucking extortion in a pathetic attempt to force Leona (a trans woman) to resign without pursuing a discrimination lawsuit by holding her fucking surgeries hostage & holy fuck

her experience at bethesda was a harrowing but depressingly familliar one filled with a sudden loss of respect by her superiors, public outing by her manager, falsified reports on her yearly review to convince corporate that she was a liability…

i struggle to find the words to descrive how i felt going through it all.

they were HOLDING HER SURGERIES HOSTAGE TO COERCE HER TO RESIGN

fuck this fucking industry. you cannot fix this. it is beyond saving

for anyone else who didn’t know, this is the format!:

https://[blogURL].tumblr.com/search/%23[tag1]%2C%20%23[tag2]

remove the [brackets] when using it!

mods are asleep, share hacks that make the site usable against its will

compulsory abledness also (partially) explains why disability aids are forced onto some people and denied from others

prosthetic limbs are forced onto amputees whether they want them or not because the goal is to make disabled people look as abled as possible. whereas, all sorts of people who would benefit from mobility aids are often denied them until it’s a “last resort” because! you guessed it! the goal is to make us look as abled as possible

neither person in this situation is privileged. it’s just that the same harmful phenomenon impacts different groups in different ways

also according to michael collins when the three of them were discussing what neil armstrong should say when he first stepped on the moon, collins suggested armstrong say “Oh, my God, what is that thing?”  and then scream and cut out his mic.

Everyone forgets Michael Collins and it’s fucking tragic.
