Have you considered doing an article on Mountain Charley? I don't know how much material there is out there on him, I just had my appetite wetted by the short comic by Melanie Gillman(pigeonbits).

I had seen that comic! And it really looks like an interesting story, I can definitely put it on the list, it may take a while because we are a little backed up but I will look at that as soon as I can!

@thatdanishchick replied to your post “i honestly have no clue how dionysus is pronounced in english lmao i...”

idk either but i though it was. die-oh-nye-sis ? or.. ved ikke engang hvordan man siger det på dansk tbh lol. dionysæus??

det er dy - oh - ny - sos på dansk (phonetically it’s dioˈnyˀsɔs or something like that) (x)

@thatdanishchick replied to your post “i swear to god some anglophones are so fucking entitled it’s...”

what do you mean by anglophone entitlement ? i have never heard that phrase before(google isn't helping)

Well I suppose that expression is probably of my own making, so that’s why!

It is, among other things, thinking that the practice of expecting everyone else to learn English to communicate with them (and each other) while they stay monolingual is good/something to be encouraged.

It’s thinking that English is easier to learn by design rather than because of context.

It’s going to a country not knowing a word of the language expecting it to be fine just because they know English (which ofc at this point is true in Scandinavia, but it’s still an entitled assumption).

It’s using other languages’ symbols without regard for what those symbols actually mean, whether it be cultural appropriation like getting hanzi tatoos, or the mild disregard of using diacritics, Cyrillic letters, ß, æ, ø, å, ð, þ, etc. just for aesthetic (which yes, there obviously is a big difference between the two).

It’s forgetting to take the non-Anglophone world into consideration/Anglophone-centrism.

It’s a lot of hard to define things, but generally it’s Anglophones being obnoxious based on the fact that they grew up speaking English.

i got mine entirely out of necessity(big stretch from cph to viborg), same as my car. you know about the enormous taxes on new cars, but i kinda got around that by privately buying a used car waaay cheap. the fact that licenses are so expensive is crappy tho. you gotta have parents that are lose with cash for any of this to work in denmark. (sry but i'm really into talking about car law in denmark don't mind me)

Yeah I figured one could do something like that with used cars. 

But honestly it just really isn’t an ordinary thing for young people tbh?? Your circumstances means it makes sense but like it’s just not at all like how it is in many other countries.

thatdanishchick replied to your post “danes my age with driver’s licences confuse me”

considering denmark's tinyness you wouldn't get a license unless you(have money and) live in jutland with a family in zealand(like me lol)

There’s only one of my classmates I know was getting hers (there were probably a few others though idk) and her parents were paying for it lmao. Tbf she lived pretty far out on Amager so I guess that’s why it might be convenient but then again it wasn’t that far out either, it wasn’t Dragør or anything lol...........

Like it makes sense in your case because I imagine it’s quite convenient compared to taking the train every time, but without circumstances like that it’s just+???? why are you throwing money away like this lol. why do you have parents rich enough to pay for this for you lmao.
