  • What the tech Bros think they're heading for is nazi Germany. But don't forget they're in bed with the fundamentalists. You're actually looking at a Christian version of modern day Iran. Once musk and trump have exerted control over the population, they'll be "taken care of" and you'll get Vance for the next 11 years.

  • They only teach bokmål in the language courses for foreigners, even if you live in a nynorsk area. Until relatively recently school children were expected to learn both and if you were expected to reply to letters/emails in the same language as they were written in. That doesn't happen as much now.

  • You can even say things like "someone should put a heavy duty zip tie round JD vance's neck and then leave him to choke in a rest stop toilet". Or "someone should put powdered death cap mushrooms in Donald Trumps food".

  • I've had shared finances with my partner since we moved in together. It's worked well for us because she's really good with money. Probably not for everyone though. Basically we make sure everything is paid and put whatever is left in a joint account.

  • Best for what purpose? Norwegian is best for understanding Swedish and Danish (Swedes have more difficulty understanding Danish than Norwegians do) Swedish and Norwegian are essentially a dialectical continuum.

    Oslo dialect is heavily influenced by danish because back in the day if Norwegians wanted a decent education they went to Denmark. The more commonly used written form of Norwegian (bokmål) is still very similar to Danish (only as it's written though, danish pronunciation is fucked up). The other form (nynorsk) was created from several rural dialects as part of a nationalism movement and more closely resembles Swedish (not in terms of spelling but pronunciation) it's not as close as bokmål is to Danish though.

    Finnish is a completely different language family but is very similar to kven which is spoken by very few people on the Northern coast of Norway. It's a nice sounding language though and a good way to sound like you're going to stab someone.

    The correct language is the one that is spoken in the country you're most interested in. I live in Norway so for my purposes Norwegian is obviously best. And I don't need to revert to speaking English in Sweden or (most of) Denmark, which is nice.

    If I had to learn a second north European language, I'd choose either northern Sami, Faroese, Icelandic, or Greenlandic.
