and of mind. Do do do do do do do do do do do.

How was your end-of-December-into-January time, meme? Did you make any New Year's resolutions? Or light a candle in your window in the hopes that Himaruya would update again instead of leaving us behind like an 19th century light house keeper's wife whose husband has gone off to sea? ... Did you?

Enjoy part 347!

Faithful British servant murdered by the Bolsheviks alongside Romanov is cleared

[(Anonymous)]

He had devoted his life to serving his master - and, even in the face of certain death, that loyalty never wavered.

Yet for 90 years, Briton Nicholas Johnson - murdered by Bolshevik revolutionaries in Russia - was officially branded an 'enemy of the people'.

As valet to Michael Romanov, younger brother of Tsar Nicholas II, Johnson had known he faced execution as the 300-year-old dynasty was swept aside in 1917.

Michael pleaded with his faithful servant to flee to the safety of Britain - but Johnson bravely refused to leave his side.

On June 12, 1918, both were shot by a bloodthirsty rabble.

As Johnson lay dying, the wounded Michael went to his aid, begging the execution squad: 'Let me say goodbye to my friend.' Moments later, he too was dead.

Now, however, the Kremlin has officially rehabilitated Johnson - meaning he no longer carries any stain of guilt on official records.

The Russian government declared Johnson, Michael and other members of the Imperial Family had been unlawfully persecuted and killed by the feared Cheka, the forerunner to the KGB.

'The analysis of old archive materials leads to the conclusion that these persons were subject to persecution in the form of arrest, exile and surveillance by the Cheka without being charged with any specific crime, on account of their class and social status,' said officials.

Johnson's remains have never been found. Nor have those of Michael, whose brother Nicholas and his family were infamously murdered a month later.

It is not known if Johnson has any relatives in Britain to celebrate the official clearing of his name.

I always thought it was interesting that there were servants who fought to stay by the side of the royals, despite likely knowing the dangers and that they might die, while many of their relatives were like LOL WELL GOOD LUCK BYE

I really wish people on this site would stop speaking on behalf of the Sami culture. I am Sami. I was born and raised in Norway (Where Frozen takes place.) I know alot of other Sami people. I am white and blonde. I look like Kristoff. Most of my Sami friends are also white. We are white. When people say that Disney “fucked up” by making Kristoff white because “they aren’t white” it hurts me because I am and a lot of other people are too.

Most of my Sami friends- most Sami that I know, actually (Not that I’m speaking for everyone, just from my experience living in Norway and growing up around other Samis) loved this movie. I LOVE that they had a Sami composer come in to do the intro. I LOVED all the little references to our culture. I didn’t feel “cheapened” or “appropriated” or whatever people are trying to say. Our own president, Aili Keskitalo, LOVED the movie. The movie is going to be shown at Skábmagovat, a Sámi movie festival in Finland. Most of us (from what I’ve gathered) really liked this movie.

You all tell white, straight, cis people to “check their privilege” and to “not speak on behalf of PoC,” but so many people who are not of my culture are speaking on behalf of us and I find it very hypocritical. Most of you had never even heard of the Sami culture until this film.
So please. Put down the virtual pitchforks and just enjoy the movie.

hey guys, is there really no word in English for those days between Boxing day and New Year's eve? does someone happen to know if they have a word for them in any other language?

just wondering here. in Finnish they're called välipäivät, "days in between"

[(Anonymous)]

I always think of that time as "the end/rest of the year," like it's some kind of waiting period that doesn't really count. There's no official word for it though.

I did find this though: http://www.buzzfeed.com/lukelewis/what-do-you-call-the-bit-between-christmas-and-new-year

Search Term: Raincoat
Popular in: Romania
What it means: Sanitary sex. “Raincoat crowd” once referred to people who saw dirty movies in theaters, and it has a different meaning in the FiOS era, explained Sterling. “Sometimes it can mean a PVC fetish, you know, getting showered on, but for the most part a raincoat is a condom. It’s really popular in straight porn. "Raincoating is when a girl is like going down on him and putting a condom on him at the same time.”
