God I wish I was Icelandic.
>>24970659sounds fucking lame
>bro here in irrelevantland we do this thing the rest of the world also does but we call it glurken blurken. jealous yet?
>>24970669Irrelevancy is a blessing in this jewish hell world
>O-oh, Yellowface... I always wanted to read that, t-thanks!
i assure you spain has a lazier version of the laziest thing you could imagine
>>24970671>Among OECD countries, Iceland has seen the sharpest rise in the share of immigrants in its population, going from three percent in the early 2000s to 20 percent last year.
>>24970671ten years ago britain won irrelevancy by popular vote.
>>24970672>o-oh, "how to kill all niggers, volume 2: strategies for carcass disposal"... thanks, son...
>>24970661You don't want to read books with Ragnheiður?
>>24970701Built for romantasy
>>24970701no, that would be awful. i want to impregnate her and then go read books with the boys.
>>24970679It's either that or watch the island get depopulated in two generations and have a bunch of 60+ year olds trying to run a society alone.The birthrates are worse than they look because when 1/5th of the population are migrants who still have kids they prop the rate up.Consumerism, "naturalism," empiricism, and materialism turned out to be the equivalent of a cancer, memes that tear through their host and cause population collapse.
>>24970718This is very ironic because many naturalists, due to empiricism being self-undermining and collapsing into skepticism in myriad directions, have hitched their ship to the idea that:>Naturalism is true not because of any metaphysical theory of truth that can explain truth as such, but merely because ideas/memes undergo selection pressures. Materialism and scientism are true because they are more adaptive!But of course, when secular urbanites in the West will see their population collapse by 2/3rds each generation it's obvious that this ideology isn't adaptive. It's the equivalent of the Black Death, just strung out over a longer period.
>>24970659You can still do this with your wife and kids if you aren’t Icelandic. Wait, you are married to a book loving women with several children who read, right anon?
>>24970718Horseshit. As labour supply for the roles the young working population occupy decreases their value increases and having more children becomes more of a boon than a burden.Iceland didn't drop below replacement rates consistently until like 2020 thanks to high levels of teen pregnancies, likely due to a culture of drinking that's now been socially engineered out of existence. The last population boom was in 1988.
Have fun being inbred
>>24970718> either that or watch the island get depopulatedThis is the neoliberal lie. That people are exchangeable and birth rate line must go up. > Consumerism, "naturalism," empiricism, and materialism turned out to be the equivalent of a cancer, memes that tear through their host and cause population collapse.Which makes this hilariously ironic. What fucking side are you on? Of course growth can’t be eternal and watching populations coming down is solving the problems of resource use and pollution we’re told to be worried about. Now we can subsist thousands of years longer in areas already resource exploited and farming that drives the earth barren of topsoil can get enough time in rest to return to balance. Except no we can’t because the neoliberal shits can’t handle an economy not fueled by anything but population growth so now we must import the third world forever (since their birthrates also drip) even though that “solves” nothing since it’s kicking the same can down the road and we’ll face depopulation anyway. So what’s the point? Let’s figure out how to live with a stabilizing population now instead of later. It’s all just about squeezing the last drops out of a dying system for the 0.001% hooknoses at the top. Killing societies with “diversity” is just a stop gap.
>>24970659I wish I was Danish instead.They know how to live, look up hygge
What twee millennial rot
>>24970784>hyggeCentralheatinglet cope.
>>24970718>It's either that or watch the island get depopulated in two generations and have a bunch of 60+ year olds trying to run a society alone.a country can drop to just a handful of people and still survive, but a country that is flooded with foreigners is lost forever
>>24970669Kek
>>24970659Did you know rotten shark is an Icelandic delicacy?Yum!
>>24970806
>>24970784Like most European ‘peculiarities’ repackaged as lifestyle trends for foreigners, it's bollocks. In all countries with cold weather and snow, including the United States, many are likely to stay at home near a heat source, drink hot beverage and engage in indoor activities. ‘Hygge’ itself a Norwegian word meaning nothing more than ‘cosiness’, a bunch of retarded hipsters gave it a deep new meaning and a few Danes were smart enough to cash in on it.Anyone with first-hand experience of Scandinavian people would know they are bland and soulless. I have never met peoples less interested in literature and the arts. They take no interest in the classics, have no opinions, no radicality. Unsurprisingly Greta Thunberg is a Swede. These are some of the most aseptic and sterile nations there is when it comes to writing. The woman reading by the fireside, wrapped in a blanket with a grog, is indeed reading, but she is reading some pulp crime novel or Michelle Obama's biography.
I'm an Icelander living in IcelandIts been unusually warm here this Christmas..It went to 19°C in Seydisfjordur last nightIts been like 9°C for at least 3 days in a row in the city here (Reykjavik)Usually December has at least freezing temperatures, but it hasn't gone down to freezing much this monthThere's also a tradition here to give some kinda clothes or items made of fabric here.. If you don't get any such soft item you're said to have been "had by the yule cat"
>>24970701Most of them look like British slags
>>24970863You sound Swedish
>>24970669lmao
>>24970669This is just that meme about the German language repurposed for Iceland
>>24970874>>24970701Inbreeding
>>24970659no, no you don't
>>24970872>There's also a tradition here to give some kinda clothes or items made of fabric here.Wow, so special and traditional and totally not like in every other country in the world where people tend to put items made of fabric on their bodies.
>>24970718you're forgetting the big elephant in the room that the majority of Icelandic women are radical feminists.
>>24970872>In Iceland we have the unique cultural tradition of gifting clothes around ChristmasBruh...
>>24970806>HakarlIn America you can get putrid shark for $5.00. We call this a Hot Carl in Cali Wali (California for you outsiders). The best thing too is that you don't even have to wait you just walk in and its always hot and ready to go at the counter. What food traditions do you have in your region?
God I wish I was Icelandichttps://youtu.be/75WFTHpOw8Y
>>24970993A bit comparable to what we call « des soupeurs » in France.
>>24970991Kids must really hate that time of year then
>>24971003knew this was bjork before clicking
>>24970872how much is a gram of cocaine in iceland?
>>24970993All we have is Skyline Chili (wrong side of the state for that in my case) and Cleveland's Polish Boy which I'd like to try.
>>24971021Well yeah, Björk is the only notable Icelandic musical act
>>24970863>no radicality>greta thunbergshe's a retard but you can't deny that her opinions are radical, in fact she is a retard because her opinions are too radical.
>>24970721Blaming ideology is a rationalization. The real reason is an increase in birth control, less mortality salience due to higher wealth, and due to higher expectations in living standards raising the perceived cost of having children.Feminism usually appears after birth rates have already been in decline. This is true in the case of your pic, South Korea's birth rate was falling well before the heyday of SK feminism. What your images shows is simply a rationalization of a tendency that already existed.Empiricism is not self-undermining; it simply has clear limits as an idea. Unlike religion, which makes big promises but doesn't actually deliver on any of it.
>>24970863TRVTH NVKE
>>24970870funny post but it misses the point, "In my culture we love food and it's so important" is just a way to observe, albeit in a very rudimentary and unrefined way, that some cultures value the simple pleasures of life more than others, eating and especially communal eating being one of them. Also confuses eating to survive with all the other things food can be culturally tied to, which is funny because it kinda proves the observation is correct.
>>24970993Well memed
>>24971042She's radically dull, though. Her ideology is literally the "I support the current thing", I doubt she ever read a single author, left-wing or right-wing. Political correctness does spread among scandies like wild fires.>>24971063It's true in the sense that commonplace behaviors without significance are often construed as unique features. Tons of cultures allocate time to eating, in fact you're more likely to spend hours eating with friends in some rural shithole in the US than in a large eurocity. It's not even a cultural thing, urbanites just don't have time/social circles/space to do it.
>>24970701that's a mid
>>24971039says a lot about iceland doesn’t it also says something about the lames posting on this board
>>24971039>Well yeah, Björk is the only notable Icelandicftfy
>>24971003Bjork is Gen X Grimes
>>24971097She's a Miss Universe Iceland finalist. Post your steatopygia waifu, dumbass zoomer.
>>24971108this isn’t a revelation
>>24971043The most religious White women in the US have birthrates above India and Libya. It very much tracks with ideology. Motherhood (and fatherhood) is not valued by modernites.
>>24970701No, I want to tie Ragnheiður up, strip her, force-feed her a large dose of 2C-B and work her over with a large assortment of floggers and sex toys while skullfucking as much semen into her as I can. Why would I want to sit around reading with her?
>>24970659it does sound cozy, but then you realize that most people read shitty mass produced genre fiction.
Jólabókaflóð means Christmas book flood and it refers to the flood of new books published every Christmas.Here is basically every work of fiction published this year, some of them are releases of older books. Not much tranny shit this year, around a third are cliche criminal mysteries. I like that there's a bunch of historical fiction.https://www.bokatidindi.is/baekur/flokkur/islensk-skaldverk
>>24971043Naturalism is technically not an ideology, its an epistemology
>>24971043>Feminism usually appears after birth rates have already been in decline. This is true in the case of your pic, South Korea's birth rate was falling well before the heyday of SK feminism. What your images shows is simply a rationalization of a tendency that already existed.>women choose something to believe in that further accelerates population collapse instead of something that actually fixes the issue Imagine my shock. Its like they're borderline retarded.
>>24970659>another year of recieving leftwing pop-history books from relatives...
>>24971239God, look at all those fetal alcohol syndrome letters
>>24970979Not at all, rather it's thrall blood, much like one drop of negro is enough to ruin an otherwise anglo-american bloodline
>>24970659Where did they go, the noble Aryans of the past? How did we go from picrel to OP's post?
>>24971319Might have something to do with romanticist wewuzery not being real in the first place.
>>24970863>They take no interest in the classicsGood. Fuck the classics, they suck.
>>24971334It's not wewuzzery, we know the Franks and Vikings existed, the question remains on what European people (or European descended people) is keeping the legacy alive and the cosmopolitan effeminate faggots definetly aren't.
>>24971334>romanticist wewuzery*angloid romanticists wewuzeryMy own romantic theories about precisely which kangz we wuz are all true, backed up by vast amounts of data and predict anomalies that pop up regularly.
>>24971039sigur ros had their moment
>>24971157sounds a bit gay
>>24971341>this painting created in the late 19th century as a part of psyopiong people into serving newly created nation-state actually is more accurate representation of what ancestors of Icelanders looked like than what Icelanders look like today
>>24971364What's role do women play in the society of Haiti? I just feel like there's a fundamental difference. Conquering out of a love for adventure and victory is far removed from conquering out of a love for violence and rape.
>>24971319Notice they're all miserable/stoic, from the western/Roman/Christian idea of masculinity.The ideal wasn't a stoic Christ or martial Roman, the highest god in terms of emotional states was a manic singer. Wolves like in the Northman help us relate to what the sources actually talk about. They do yap a lot about wolves, naming people, places and groups with the suffix -wolf/-úlf/-ólf. Both the founders of Iceland were "wolves". Ingólfur and Herjólfur, King-wolf and War-wolf.
Is Icelandic worth learning if you study Old Icelandic
>>24971377no one studies old icelandic
>>24970661fpbp. no wonder we conquered their ass
>>24970863I went to Norway once as a small child, and was playing on a frozen wheelchair ramp while we waited for a bus, just sliding down it on my bum. A little Norwegian boy was watching, and started to come over to play with me, and his mother WALLOPED him on the back of the head. It was really strange. Scandinavians are extremely unpleasant people.
>>24970870If you want to see a culture that's genuinely completely indifferent to food, visit Ireland outside of a major city.
>>24971391I study it, currently re-reading Ölkofra saga
>>24971377Icelandic schoolkids can read old Norse scrolls with little work. Around 930, 60 years after Iceland was settled and the great viking army invaded England the languages were similar enough for Egill Skallagrímsson's poetry to be understood by angloids. It was exotic but all the words shared a recent etymology.At that point an Icelandic time traveller could make himself understood to groups across the British isles, larger Germany, Scandinavia, Russia and Ukraine. This describes the Hunnic empire + Britain which was taken by the Saxons from south of Denmark.South of France, what was left of Spain and North Africa was Gothic before Islam so some of them might understand God's language too.
>>24971071>Her ideology is literally the "I support the current thing"How many times have you been literally tortured by Israel for your convictions?
>>24971424>literally tortured by israel>being this gullible
>>24970659I would sacrifice my right hand to live in Scandinavia as opposed to “urban” America.
>>24971424>braying about Palestine isn't Current ThingListen to yerself.
>>24971448They live in depressing socialist hellholes. Don't be fooled by the official statistics, most Scandinavians are miserable, the poorest states in America are on par or richer than Scandinavia.
>>24970679What's the make-up of the immigrant groups? Afaik, I'm too lazy to check stats, but pretty sure like 90% of immigrants to Iceland are European.
>>24971462Polish, Lithuanian, Thai.A black guy is most likely a tourist but there are some. A thai girl is most likely a warbride. A polish-lithuanian is most likely a construction worker. Recently the brown muslim cabbie types started showing up.
>>24971430Would you like to support your allegations with a single shred of evidence?>>24971451Pot meet kettle. I‘m not the one decrying bravery and steadfastness in the face of possibly the most evil state in history because some college students I find kind of annoying have also managed to be correct on the matter.
>>24970659What's that Harold Bloom quote about reading being a fundamentally solitary activity? I don't want to read someone else's shitty slop I have my own reading list, thanks.
>>24971448But Scandinavia is overrun with arabs and africans
>>24971940You only know what pol allows you to see, you useless shut-in
>>24970659My family has been doing this for the last few years because my Mum happened to read about it. It's very comfy.>t. ausfag
You don't have to be Icelandic. My wife and I have been celebrating Jolabokaflood for years. Every year, we get each other a book, some snacks, and hot beverages, then spend a day reading together.
Me too Anon, me too
Help I'm fucking Icelandic sir
>>24970659Iceland is so boring. How many icelandic people can you name? The mountain's actor in game of thrones? I have never seen an icelandic flag while playing video games online. Being danish or norwegian is way cooler
>>24971063>we’re known for an elaborate culinary traditions and fine wines>you know, the uhh simple pleasures
>>24972094:)
>>24970669Ungrateful nigger like you had no idea how blissful it is to be able to read a book in silence with your friends, relatives, or family. These days you'll have some niece or nephew screaming and behaving like niggers in family gathering, uncs that are talking about nonsense, women like aunts or mothers that are constantly laughing like a devil with each other, and other family talks that are more likely going to lead to another conflict or so. Being able to just sit and read a book in total silence except for the sound of hot chocolate slurping or turning a page is a damn fucking bliss
