Hi! I love your blog so much! The translation and especially the notes you make on them give me so much insight in the song! I also read the thing about the whole cultural thing of names in Iceland which I thought was very interesting. Are there more aspects in Icelandic culture that are specific like that? I'd love to read about it!
Well, we’ve got some very interesting traditional food. Most other countries have their own special delicacies, but the Icelanders were primarily concerned with surviving on this cold little island, and our traditional food largely revolves around finding ways to eat absolutely every part of every available animal, and preserve it all through the winter with extreme and grotesque methods. Highlights include:
- Greenland shark! Greenland shark is poisonous. The Icelanders were apparently really determined to eat this shark anyway, and they found a way: by burying it in the ground to rot for a few months, then hanging it to dry for several more months! It is absolutely disgusting by all accounts. There exist Icelanders who genuinely like it (my grandpa did), but much more who eat it solely as a test of bravery (and others who just don’t dare; I’m very sensitive about food and I’m not touching it with a ten-foot pole). We love getting tourists to eat it just to see how they react. Testimonials:
“the single worst, most disgusting and terrible tasting thingI’ve ever eaten” - Anthony Bourdain
"That's hardcore. That's serious food. You don't want to mess with that. That's not for beginners."- Andrew Zimmern
"like chewing a urine-infested mattress"- Ainsley Harriott
- Sheep heads with eyes and all, staring you in the face! You don’t waste any part of the animal, so you eat the head. This one’s actually supposedly pretty tasty, if you can get over it psychologically. But don’t look at me, I don’t eat any of this stuff. (There is a pretty good Icelandic crime thriller film, Mýrin or Jar City, where the protagonist buys one of these at a drive-through, which you can actually do in Iceland, and eats it while reading up on some evidence, just casually scooping out the eye with a pocket knife and sticking it in his mouth. It is glorious and I really want to watch this film with foreigners sometime and watch them react to this scene.)
- Ram testicles! Who doesn’t want to eat some of those! I said every part of the animal, damn it.
Mostly our traditional food is eaten during þorri, one of the months of the old Icelandic calendar, approximately mid-January to mid-February. We’ve got feasts featuring nothing but this food, called þorrablót. It’s going to vary whether your family does these or not (mine did not), but you’ll almost certainly at least experience some in your kindergarten or elementary school.
Also, we still have intermissions in the middle of movies at most movie theaters. On the one hand it disrupts the flow of the movie since movies aren’t designed for intermissions anymore, and sometimes they’re not very well placed and the audio doesn’t come in immediately when it starts up again. But on the other hand, I kind of like it because you can go to the bathroom, or talk to whoever you’re with about what’s going on, or get popcorn, or just stand up and stretch your legs for a bit. Very helpful for those three-hour movies.

Horizon
Name / Ainm: Mary Somers
Age / Aois: 125
Gender / Gnè: Female / Boireann
Nationality / Nàiseantachd: Scottish / Albannach
Home World / Saoghal Dachaigh: Psamathe / Salmathe
Almost a century ago, the Outlands were dangling on the edge of a cataclysmic energy crisis. Dr. Mary Somers, a charmingly eccentric astrophysicist, was hired to find a solution. Mary moved her family to the scientific research station on Olympus and set to work.
With the help of her apprentice, Dr. Reid, Mary discovered Branthium — an element she was convinced could be the key to limitless energy. But Branthium can be found only on the accretion disk of a black hole, so Mary and Dr. Reid departed on a dangerous mission to prove her theory right.
Mary promised her son Newton she'd return safe and sound. But Dr. Reid betrayed her, stealing the Branthium and sending her shuttle into the black hole's orbit. Using her wits, Mary modified her robotic vacuum companion N.E.W.T. to escape. But time moves differently on the outskirts of a black hole, and she was 87 years too late.
Now Mary is determined to fund her research to find a way to go back in time and be with her son. She joins the Apex Games as Horizon, master of gravity, just in time for the next season to debut on Olympus — where her old life once was and where she had promised to return.
/
Cha mhòr ceud bliadhna air ais, bha na Outlands an sàs ann an èiginn lùth cataclysmic. Chaidh an Dr. Mary Somers, reul-eòlaiche air leth eireachdail, fhastadh gus fuasgladh fhaighinn. Ghluais Mary a teaghlach gu stèisean rannsachaidh saidheinsail Olympus agus thòisich i ag obair.
Le cuideachadh bhon phreantas aice, an Dr. Reid, lorg Mary Branthium — rud a bha i cinnteach a dh'fhaodadh a bhith na phrìomh dhòigh air lùth gun chrìoch. Ach chan fhaighear Branthium ach air diosc cruinneachaidh toll dubh, agus mar sin dh' fhalbh Mary agus an Dr. Reid air misean cunnartach gus a teòiridh a dhearbhadh ceart.
Gheall Mary dha mac Newton gun tilleadh i gu sàbhailte. Ach bhrath an Dr. Reid i, a' goid am Branthium agus a' cur a shuttle gu reul an tuill dhubh. A' cleachdadh a buadhan, dh'atharraich Mary a companach falamh robotach N.E.W.T. teicheadh. Ach tha ùine a 'gluasad gu eadar-dhealaichte air iomall toll dubh, agus bha i 87 bliadhna ro fhadalach.
A-nis tha Mary dìorrasach an rannsachadh aice a mhaoineachadh gus dòigh a lorg airson a dhol air ais ann an tìm agus a bhith còmhla ri a mac. Bidh i a' tighinn còmhla ris na Geamannan Apex mar Horizon, maighstir grabhataidh, dìreach ann an àm airson an ath sheusan airson a 'chiad turas aige air Olympus — far an robh a seann bheatha uair agus far an robh i air gealltainn tilleadh.

TAROT READINGS (pay what you can, if nothing, it’s free).
Hello everyone,
it’s time for a new round of tarot readings! If you need a one-card advice or a full on celtic cross, I can do it all! I will do a reading for you on a ‘pay what you can’-basis. So if you have nothing to spend, I will do one for free. However I would kindly ask you to not misuse this suggestion and if you think my service has helped you, a little money would be a nice reward for my time (PayPal would definitely work!)
You can send me a private message and then I’ll answer there. If you post to my inbox I will not post it on my dash but send the answer back to your inbox. If you want to stay anonymous, that’s okay as well. Keep in mind that anonymous posts will be posted on my dash.
I will answer your questions as soon as I can, but I might not always be online.
I’m looking forward to this!
Much love,
Boireann <3

Ash
Ainm: Ashleigh Reid
Aois: 121
Gnè: Boireann
Nàiseantachd: Albannach
Saoghal Dachaigh: Neo-Aithnichte
Rugadh an Dr. Ashleigh Reid — a tha fhathast gu mòr na dhuine — air a' Chrìochan neo-thròcaireach — tràth gur e i fhèin an aon neach a bha a' dol a choimhead air a son. Aon latha, chaidh a fastadh le buidheann mercenary airson obair fhìnealta: goid stòr connaidh deuchainneach a bha ga sgrùdadh ann am baile-mòr Outlands ann an Olympus. B' e obair cheart a bh' ann dha Reid, a rinn in-shìoladh agus làimhseachadh inntinn an luchd-rannsachaidh fad bhliadhnaichean. Nuair a rinn an obair-lann fèin-sgrios, bhàsaich i.
Agus cha do rinn.
Chaidh a h-eanchainn a chuir ann an slige simulacrum, ach sa phròiseas, chaill i bliadhnaichean de chuimhneachain, agus dh' adhbhraich trauma "bàs" a pearsantachd briste. Tha an luaithre mar shamhla air taobh fuar, foirfeachd agus acrach an Dr. Reid. Ach air cùl an aghaidh mhisneachail sin, tha rudeigin sinist a' suirghe. Às deidh coinneamh le Horizon a tha a 'dol thairis air prògramadh simulacrum Ash, tha am frèam a chùm daoine so-leònte — ach tuigseach — pearsantachd Leigh nan tàmh air tòiseachadh a' sgàineadh. Bidh Ash a' tighinn còmhla ris na Geamannan gus dearbhadh gu bheil i air a dhol thairis air a' chinne-daonna gu lèir. Tha Leigh airson dearbhadh gu bheil i ceàrr.
