  • Finnish ones (some sayings here too):

    • “Ski into a spruce!” -> Get lost!
    • “So the forest answers as one calls into it” -> what comes around goes around
    • “If you reach for the spruce you’ll fall into the juniper” -> don’t bite more than you can chew
    • “to be like hit on the head with a piece of wood” -> to be baffled
    • “it went into the forest” -> something failed
    • “to have own cow in the ditch” -> to have their own hidden agenda behind a request or actions
    • “to throw the spoon into the corner” -> to die






  • Huh? The things people do for that wage will certainly rise in price due to inflation. Interest on bank accounts usually correlates with inflation, house prices go up with inflation (if you own one, it’s value usually does too)… It’s usually only stuff that wears out quickly and/or electronics (stuff that has steep inherent value deprecation) that do not grow in value due to inflation.









  • I must admit I don’t know the situation well but I feel like “immunity from child emotional abuse claims” is not the right move. This feels like a symptom of much wider problems. Parents work way too much, kids spend too much time in school, too much revolves around being “productive”. Parents can’t parent much but they feel the pressure to provide their kids with best possible future… Much is left to the teachers who probably need to do parenting work too without necessary time and tools. So they suffer, because kids suffer because parents suffer.
