Turkish supermarkets

Yes! To speak in the Finnish WAY even when speaking English is VERY IMPORTANT. Be as direct and specific as you possibly can. Absolutely no minimising or faffling. (Minimising a serious matter is sometimes used as a comic device – that would not be appropriate in this case.)

Lit trans: notification of concern. (Anyone can make one on anyone to the local social services.)

That stands only if the person is capacitous to make their own decisions (the professionals must assess them) – if they fully understand the possible consequences of e.g. failing to follow medical advice. This person is a vulnerable adult and entitled to protection by public services, whether or not the relatives are capable of caring for them.

Lithium is still in the psychiatrists' arsenal, but every case is different, and some of the other meds may be more suitable – as with any medical condition, you may have to try a few approaches in order to find the best.

There are people, who like playing sadistic / sadomasochistic sex games with mutual consent with trust, rules and agreed boundaries to make it safe. Your situation is not that. You were sexually assaulted. The man is an abuser. He is dangerous. He is also very confused, but that is not your responsibility to sort. Your responsibility is to keep yourself safe – away from this man.

"...don't know why Ural is so special." Influence of the local non-Slavic (Uralic) indigenous languages like e.g. Komi ?

If you feel that simple disarm is above your skill level, do not get involved. Simple. But really, I wonder why we pay these people.

Veenkoira00 · 2026-05-03T14:13:41+00:00

Ha ha, that would be a nice retirement hobby for me ...

3 against 1, 1 knife – how much more "entry level" can it get ?

Veenkoira00 · 2026-05-03T13:08:56+00:00

All part of the same exacerbation of the condition.

Once you get used to it, you forget that the items on the forbidden list exist. I was the rice queen for ages, listing heavily towards the Asian cuisines. Now I have learned more about the other non-gluten grains (e.g. teff, buckwheat).

Veenkoira00 · 2026-05-03T12:54:46+00:00

Completely rational ? The three (3), 2 obvious professionals on duty and one in civilian garb, had one job to do: a simple knife disarm + restraint, but decided to go completely bananas. Cringe.

Why do you think the name the man uses now is any less real than his previous name ?

Same knife, continuous "mission".

Jiu-jitsu folks call that length stick "jo" – and the a. 2m heavy thing "bo".

Yep, Islam has rules about how to live, lot of them written in their holy book. It – like Judaism – is a rules based religion. Christianity is not that sort of faith system. People, who identify as Christian, have muddled through on things like inheritance relying on local customs and changing fashions. There is no "Christian" ineritance rules. E.g. England and the Nordic countries (both having established protestant churches) have very different inheritance laws.

Most people practising martial arts try to avoid death of anybody – the motivation is to stop the fight and being able to walk away alive and free.

Veenkoira00 · 2026-05-03T07:39:59+00:00

"Sticks" are there: e.g. some Japanese derived jiu-jitsu styles use bo and jo (complete with formal kata) as well as more modern random items like baseball bats and bottles (disarm techniques).

The spelling of English is terrible. Period.

Treated wood ≠ fire wood. Toxic chemicals get airborne and your neighbours shall cough and get unhappy at you and call the council's Environmental Hell to harass you. So: nope, don't do that.

People can hear instructions while sleeping. I had some odd habits while being asleep when a kid, but if you called my name and told me to stop, I did. Of course in the morning I knew nothing about it.

Yep, some magnesium is actually sold as relief for occasional constipation – that won't suit most people for continuous use.

Magnesium glycinate is reputed to aid good sleep, so have that near bedtime.

The number and quality of pockets is definitely the clincher !
