Have you played Dredge? I saw you reblogged some artwork from the game. It's a fun, well made game with puzzle elements and well told story. And it's almost entirely fish based!

I know of Dredge, but I haven’t played it! Perhaps one day.

This is Nikkikan sending a tear ask. Is it still messed up?

The ask system? Well, the thing with it is it’s fine in the inbox, and it’s fine after being reblogged, and it’s fine when I go to my blog, it’s just on my dash that it’s weird. Hang on, I’ll reblog with some pictures so you can see what I mean.

Listen you’re 100% right but I gotta stand by my principles

So, in DAI they make it A Thing with Cullen getting called 'Knight Captain' and distancing himself from the order by refusing the title. Wasn't Knight *Commander* his highest ranking title and the one Templars would be calling him? He took over control of the Gallows after Meredith's statue-fication as her second in command which should have made him the Commander. Am I missing something or was Bioware trying to distance him from having agency in Kirkwall some more?

I wouldn’t be surprised if this was just a continuity error, but it’s possible.

Re: Finnish vs Swedish debate, I kinda loosing my mind over other USAmericans mixing up the two. Finnish is infamously different from the other Nordic languages! When written, Finnish is pretty hard to mistake for anything else and it has a distinct sound when spoken. Spoken Swedish sounds so Swedish there's an entire muppet character based around Swedish nonsense words. Swedish and Finnish accents are both pretty distinct, too! I might be over reacting but I feel like Im defending the honor over here.

Right!!! Finnish is so different from Swedish (and Danish, and Norwegian, and Icelandic), it becomes most clear when you view both written down. "Jag och mina kompisar är glad eftersom solen skiner" vs "Minä ja kaverini olemme iloisia koska aurinko paistaa". Those ä's and ö's are common "foreign" ground but Swedish has more of those exotic consonants (and å)... exotic to me, because Finnish seldom uses d's or g's or f's. I can't say since I'm Finnish myself and naturally my brain is tuned into Finnish frequency but. They sound so different too. Swedes sing!

I suppose it's quite understandable for someone who isn't really familiar with these fine minute differences to not realise though. It helps me to speak one fluently and have learned one in school lmao. I can hardly distinguish the Scandinavian languages myself!! I'm all out of my element in those, let alone every single other language in the world and their clear and distinct differences to their native speakers! xO

Hauki by Super Bra was in my top 100 songs on spotify this year because of you. Thanks for sharing non-english language music and good fish pics.

Ultra Bra, and hey, you're welcome! Sometimes it's nice to broaden one's musical horizons. Finnish 90's art rock really does the trick!

I see a lot of messed up jellyfish washed up on the beach at my job, i'm now afraid that I'm going to look down in the water one day and see the baeve balsimied xerox perceiving back at me

Haha, understandable concern, although you should have no fear! Dreams are just that, stories made up by the subconscious when the brain is cleaning things up. Seems kinda wild to see jellyfish washed up on beaches, in general! What if you step on one!?
