No sideblogs, it's all jumbled together here.
The first time, she says "To me," and the mirror dutifully shows her her reflection. And she is pleased.
The second time, she says "To the King," and she is pleased to see herself once more.
The third time, she says "To the Royal Advisor," and is once more satisfied to see herself.
The fourth time, she says "To the scribe who takes the King's letters." She is shown the man's wife. And she seethes, but quiets herself, for it is only right that a man loves his wife.
The fifth time, she says "To the Court Wizard," and is shown the man's departed mother as he remembers her from his youth, radiant and smiling and warm and larger than life.
The tenth time, she says "To the Stable Master," and is shown the fastest horse in the stable, majestic and free as the wind even in captivity
"To the baker," she is shown the man's daughter, young and adorable and full of joy and laughter.
"To the artist who did my portrait," she is shown a painting of a woman done by the man's teacher, who he still looks up to now that he is well established himself.
"To the Royal Knight," she is surprised but not displeased to see the castle's entire guard force in the middle of doing drills.
The one hundredth time she asks the mirror, and it asks her "to whom?" she once again says, "To me." And she does the same the one hundred and second, and again and again and again.
It is a different person each time, and they are all beautiful.
Something I like about Jet Lag: The Game is that "Ben gets drunk" and "Ben falls down" are both beloved and semi-common occurrences, and they have never happened together. He's just like that.
“Lord Byron gets up at two. I get up, quite contrary to my usual custom … at 12. After breakfast we sit talking till six. From six to eight we gallop through the pine forest which divide Ravenna from the sea; we then come home and dine, and sit up gossiping till six in the morning. I don’t suppose this will kill me in a week or fortnight, but I shall not try it longer. Lord B.’s establishment consists, besides servants, of ten horses, eight enormous dogs, three monkeys, five cats, an eagle, a crow, and a falcon; and all these, except the horses, walk about the house, which every now and then resounds with their unarbitrated quarrels, as if they were the masters of it… . [P.S.] I find that my enumeration of the animals in this Circean Palace was defective … . I have just met on the grand staircase five peacocks, two guinea hens, and an Egyptian crane. I wonder who all these animals were before they were changed into these shapes.”
— Percy Bysshe Shelley on the lifestyle of Lord Byron (via timemarauder)
@everything-you-feel-is-real I know by tumblr tradition that I'm to say "impossible, my posts never blow up like that," or "please don't do this to me."
But I feel in my bones that you are right. If this is to be my wife's moment of glory, I am willing to suffer notification overload, that the world may know she is funny. #MyFunnyWife
📍JokerOutSubs' Official Joker Out MVs locations guide! 🗺️
Hello baby boos! As Karneval is rapidly approaching, and many international fans will be coming to Ljubljana in these days, we decided it's high time we post something we've had in our drafts for a while now!
A long while ago we received this Ask about the locations of the music video for A sem ti povedal.
We took our time to reply but while we were researching for it, we thought, why not make a post of all Joker Out’s music video locations?
So here it is! Check out our masterpost under the cut! 👇
NOTE: All locations mentioned and linked below are available in this google map. Below you can also find a printable PDF map of the Ljubljana city center, with our suggested walking tour that should last around 1.5 - 2 hours!
A sem ti povedal
Bojan’s part
an apartment, unclear where.
Jan’s part
Jan’s part was shot in the tunnel under Grajski grič (Castle hill) in Ljubljana. Pedestrians are usually not allowed to walk through the tunnel, so you cannot explore it by foot, but you can drive through it. If you are not exploring Slovenia by car, you can take the public bus in Ljubljana, number 2 drives through this tunnel.
Link
Jure’s part
Jure’s part was shot in the abandoned quarry Pleše in Škofljica (about a 20 minute drive from Ljubljana). The quarry is not officially open to the public, though it is full of visitors on warm, sunny days. Quite a lot of people take a swim in the turquoise water as well. Some even dive into the water.
Link
Martin’s part
Martin drives around various parts of Ljubljana. Multiple are close to City Park, the biggest shopping centre in the capital. He drives down the road in the industrial zone.

Link
Kris’ part
Kris’ part was shot in a forest. It is unclear which forest exactly, but if you do decide to explore Slovenia, most of the country is covered by forests, so you should have no trouble finding one.
Group part
The final, group part was actually shot very close to the tunnel from Jan’s part. The street they run down is called Poljanska cesta and it is also close to the Ljubljana market and puppet theatre.
Link
Vem da greš
Costume party
The costume party takes place in Festivalna dvorana (Ljubljana Festival Hall), a hall in Ljubljana used for dancing events, play performances and even concerts.
Link
Park scene
The scene where the children play in the park was shot in Severni mestni park (North City Park) in the part of Ljubljana called Bežigrad. The park is known for many play areas for children and cherry trees, which bloom during the spring months. Behind the children you can see a triangular shaped block of flats, known as a ski jumping hill among the locals. It’s also visible from Ljubljana Castle.
Link
Record shop
The record shop from the music video is called VOM Record Store and it is located in the centre of Ljubljana.
Link
Futuristic building
This futuristic building is the Faculty of Computer and Informational science in Ljubljana.
Link
Testing centre
The testing takes place at the Global Sports Clinic.
Link
Take-off site
The take-off site is in Center Noordung. Not an actual take-off site, but a museum dedicated to space technology in Vitanje.
Link
Katrina
The brick building Kris is in front of is called Stara mestna elektrarna (The Old Power Station) and is located in the city centre. It used to be an operational thermoelectric plant. Now it’s used as a performing arts venue, where theatre and dance performances happen as well as various workshops.
Link
Forest
A random forest. These boys sure do love their forests.
A hole in the wall
A wall with a hole next to some text is located in Metelkova, an autonomous cultural and social centre, but be careful if going there as this whole wider area of Ljubljana is a little bit sketchy. On the wall is written ‘Z glavo skozi zid’ (‘To bang one's head against a brick wall’).
Link
A church
This church is called ‘Cerkev Srca Jezusovega’ (Church of Jesus’ heart), located on Slomškova ulica, where The Old Power Station is also situated.
Link
Ljubljana Train Station
This part of the train station is currently under construction as it’s being renovated and can’t be accessed.
Link
Running down a street
They are running from the church in the direction of The Old Power Station.

Kot srce, ki kri poganja
The infamous pool where Joker Out’s first-ever music video was shot was located in Vrhnika. Built in 1952, it served as a pool until 2005. After being closed down due to not meeting regulations it was repurposed as a venue for film projections and concerts (Joker Out apparently even had some of their first concerts there). Today, the pool has been torn down and the area is planned to be repurposed for sports activities.
Omamljeno telo
Most locations are unclear, but:
Abandoned warehouse
The abandoned warehouse is the Stožice parking garage. While Stožice Arena and Stožice Stadium are fully operational, the project was never finished. The Stožice complex was supposed to have a shopping centre as well and the parking garage is not in the best shape as can be seen in the music video. It’s only open while events take place.
Link
Stairs
The stairs are a part of Podhod Ajdovščina (‘Underpass Ajdovščina’), it has three entrances, they used the one from Dalmatinova ulica. The underpass is another half deserted space. There used to be a lot of shops and restaurants, but now only some restaurants remain open. However there are some talks about it being converted into a cinema complex in the future.
Link
Bojan sitting on a bench
Bojan is sitting on a bench in front of Ljubljana’s National and University Library, the biggest library in the country. Next to him is a statue of Ivan Prijatelj, one of the founders of Ljubljana’s Slavic studies.
Link
Barve oceana
Land with a bell tower in the background
The bell tower belongs to the church, Cerkev sv. Mavra in Izola, a coastal town with 12,000 inhabitants.
Link
Marina in the background
This was also filmed in Izola, in the marina.
Link
Land in the background
Camera pans from Slovenian to Italian land. It was filmed in the vicinity of Izola. The hill in the background is where Izola Hospital is located. When the camera pans to Italian land, you can also see a container ship headed to the Port of Koper.
Link
Carpe Diem
Hotel
The hotel where everything takes place is a real life hotel, Hotel Union, located in the city centre of Ljubljana. It’s one of the oldest hotels in Ljubljana as the building process started in 1904. At the time it was on of the biggest hotels in the region.
Link
Bluza
Jazz Club Kazina
Joker Out envisioned a love story in a kafana for the Bluza music video. Kafana is a distinct type of local bistro, common in some former Yugoslav countries, which primarily serves alcoholic beverages and coffee, as well as food. They used the Kazina building in Congress Square, Ljubljana, to represent this. Built in 1821, historically it was a gathering place for the local elite, but now it is a jazz club and fine dining restaurant.

got a huge lot of hole punches for $20 the other day and have gotten around to going through to pick what I'm keeping or not. and most of the corner punches have been like lace and cutesy rounded stuff, things like that, but this um. hm. Hm.
functionally suicidal character saying “I would die for you” to their significant other and its like. I get the sentiment, honey, but if a hot dog vendor told me he’d sell hot dogs for me, I wouldn’t feel very moved now would I
