Hei moi!

Meikämorsolainen ettii lisää aktiivisia suomitumputtajia seurattavaks! Voidaan olla mutualsseja kans jos mun blogi miellyttää :) haluisin vaan tosi kovasti lisää suomea mun ruudulle! Ei haittaa jos postaat myös enkuksi tavaraa mutta tavoitteena olis että sais lisää suomalaisia mun piiriin.

Elikkä jos : Postaat suomeksi ja/tai olet suomalainen, nii rebloggaa tämä tai laita vaikka kommentilla suomitumppu sivublogi jos semmonen löytyy. En eti iha hirveen poliittista tai kieliopillista tavaraa, ihan perus meemailu kelpaa kyllä, mutta älkäähän ujostelko!

Ite yritän lisätä omaa suomipostailua mutta valtaosa on yhä enkuksi mullakin. Halusin sen huomioida tässä jos meinasit seurata mua myös.

Kiitoksia! Morso kuittaa

An icon. Source of several scared finnish children. Personification of loneliness. And one of my favorite monsters in this world

Mörkö, aka the Groke from moominvalley! Or well I guess she lives in the lonely mountains? I think that was mentioned like once.. Anyway, I love her very very much and today we're healing and drawing childhood faves

And yep this is who I got my tumblr name from

More context and deep talk™ under the cut

According to Tove Jansson herself, the Groke was made to be sort of a general representation of negative feelings and concepts, such as depression, loneliness, fear etc. However. I think alot of people became fond of this creature. At least the people who watched the 90's animated series. She's always described to be alone, and only comes to other people in search of company and love. But everyone and everything she touches freezes. So people run away. Imagine living like that. It's heartbreaking. And I think lots of people who knew being discriminated or isolated from the majority could sympathise with this. I sure did, as a queer and neurodivergent person. I think maybe once in one story she was given a partner and children due to popular demand, so she wouldn't be lonely. You know, other Grokes. However the most agreed upon Canon is that she's the only one of her kind.

Now on a more personal note, I remember the vast majority of my friends being scared of her, and I'm not trying to be "Not like other kids™", but I didn't see how she was creepy. Like yeah I can get how you could be scared of this creature, visually and conceptually, but I just. Imagined myself in her position. Also to be fair, both my brothers made fun of her appearance so it kinda desensitised me lol

In conclusion, she was and is important to me and I wanted to draw something nice of her. Fun fact, this is the second ever drawing I've done of the Groke. The first time was in middle school when we had to design our own moomin mugs as an art project. I should try to dig up mine..

My favourite part about Finnish culture might just be the dramatic dairy commercials. x x x
