I'm very proud of the lyrics to this older tune of mine:

We're living in the nighttime rain

Trying to find a way back home

Take the candle from my hand

Blow out the light

I will never follow you

Or take you back for reason

I will turn away from it all

I will let you down

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth , Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth , Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

We're living in the nighttime rain

Trying to find a way back home

Take the candle from my hand

Blow out the light

Stuck inside your molten mind

Your essence slowly fading

No words and no fears

Time will find you weeping

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth , Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth , Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

And if you are chasing the weak

Our path will surely reconnect

Time will come for you my friend

Since you have lost your way

(Extra scrapped lyrics)

And you may lose your conscious

And if you are running astray

Make sure to hide the way

(continuation:)

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth , Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

Things have never felt this way

Like they were before

Caught the mouth, Hide the pain

Take me back my enemy

Enemy

Shut enemy

Enemy

My enemy

It will be released, hopefully this year!

The Baltic Ringed Seal is a Ringed Seal’s subspecies that lives in the Baltic sea. The focus is on the Gulf of Bothnia, but they also live in the Gulf of Riga and the Gulf of Finland

The Baltic Ringed Seal eats fish and shellfish, as well as other marine invertebrates.

Like the Saimaa Ringed Seal, the Baltic Ringed Seal, when epilation in the spring, likes to lie on the shore stones because the old hair is easier to leave when dry.

Tulen morsian - English title: "The Devil's Bride" is a Finnish historical drama film released in 2016. It was directed by Saara Cantell and is based on the historical treatise of the same name written by the Finnish author, Leena Virtanen.

The film is set in the late 17th century and revolves around the life of Anna, a young woman living in a small Finnish village. Anna is accused of being a witch and is forced to confront the prejudices and superstitions of her time. The story delves into themes of oppression, religious intolerance, and the power dynamics between men and women during that era.

It is perhaps the most accurate historical film presenting witch processes as they were (but there is a lot of fiction too). The Movie and this podcast are based on Academical research of the subject and yet it is exiting and revealing. (Watch the video clip below)

*The first trials in Sweden-Finland influenced by Diabolism took place on the Swedish speaking island, Ahvenanmaa (Åland) situated between Sweden and Finland (1666) - map below.

*The judge of Ahvenanmaa Nils Psilander acted on his own initiative, and supposedly believed to have based his actions on the most modern information of the time - as he did, indeed.

*In the theoretical part I will sum up things from the psychoanalytical viewpoint. We are in the middle of the crisis now - learn what can happen to people’s mind in crisis. (The Audio Part was made during COVID-19)

My podcast series about Witches in Finland and witch films is coming to an end. It is time to remember the victims of these Witch processes.

There were about 1,200 trials in Finland in which the crime was witchcraft or sorcery - about 150 death sentences. It is not known how many of them were released in the Court of Appeal. Of the more than a thousand people accused in 1620-1700, more than half were men. In Åland, those sentenced to death (in 1666 - 1668) were all women.

Listen and watch this episode for free (below).

Sailing trip in Åland

Åland (Ahvenanmaa) is an autonomous region in Finland. It’s an archipelago near Turku called Åland island, or Ahvenanmaan saaristo in Finnish. The official language of the autonomous Åland is only Swedish though, not Finnish.

Here is a map of Åland (and a also a bit of Turku’s region too) for those unfamiliar with the area.

My step mum’s workplace has a rather nice boat (even a little bit too nice for my taste) that the workers can borrow so I went for a four day sail with my step mum, younger brother and my step mum’s coworker + their kids. The boat was waiting in Åland so we headed first to the capital of Åland, Mariehamn, with a cruiser.

On the cruiser I found this plushie that is supposed to be the ship we were on. It’s somehow between very cute and kinda cursed... My wife said it looks like Thomas the tank engine and Lightning mcQueen had children so you can make of that what you will...

Cruises are actually a common freetime activity in Finland and I’d love to talk about them more in depth, but thats for another time :)

Also a pic from outside of the cruiser

Mariehamn is pretty close to Helsinki so we had to wake up at 4 am. The ship just dropped people off in Åland and then continued the cruise to Stockholm where most people on the ship headed.

The next day I checked the boat. It’s quite big and has a separate toilet, two sleeping cabins, gas stove and oven and a small fridge. Here’s a peek to inside the ship

I also had to fix some ropes in the mast the first day. It was actually rather fun :D

Luckily I’m not scared of heights.

Our first stop was Föglö where we sailed the first day. I have actually been here alreadyearlier with my friends when we rode through Åland with bikes. Degerby is the name of the village there. In the picture you can see the flag of Åland.

We also played pretty cheap minigolf there. Only 5e for adults or something :0

The next day we headed to Seglinge. It was a lovely place with a very well equipped guest harbour. Would recommend!

We also had a nice summer bbq there :)

The next day we sailed a longer trip. 7 hours to Korpoström. We also emptyed our poop container there. Sorry but no pics about that :D But here’s a pic of my step mum steering the boat

When we came to Korpoström, I took a bus to Turku to return home. Because of the islandy nature of the region, the bus had to get on a ferry several times to get from an island to another. I don’t have a picture of that sadly.

The others continued the trip for several more days, but it sure was fun to take part in the first half <3 Hope to visit Åland again someday!
