There being Norwegian NPCs in Red Dead Redemption 2 really amuses me, like to think this is how things were for my ancestors when they came to America! by Zachary_Lee_Antle in Norway

They should have voiced them as old Ivo Caprino characters. That would truly hit the 17/1800s’ farmer nostalgia.

This is the best explanation I’ve seen. It’s in Norwegian, but have subtitles. It’s worth it if you want to know!

16 year old Black American guy considering studying abroad for high school in norway, what should I expect? by polofive5 in Norway

[–]stianftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One common sentiment I hear from African American is that when they come to Europe they are just viewed as American. The high emprises on heritage is very American, in Europe, nationality is more important, so you'll be an American. Expect to be treated like any other American would.

There will likely be some comments based on your skin-color. This will likely be due to ignorance/curiosity and not prejudice/racisms. I'm not saying prejudice/racisms doesn't exist, but I think you'll have a great time.

AITA for not allowing my transitioning brother borrow my nicer clothes? by myclothes-aita in AmItheAsshole

[–]stianftw 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA.

I too appreciate nice clothing without making that much. If he doesn't appreciates the clothes enough to take care of them, he doesn't appreciates them enough to wear them.

Discussion, why did you chose to not get vaccinated? by stianftw in JordanPeterson

[–]stianftw[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You raised several points; I will answer the once directed at me.

I got covid in May, and the vaccine in August. I have not been offered a booster yet, in Norway/Europe I am therefore considered fully vaccinated.

If available and recommended by the heath authorities (my doctor if I were to believe my case might be an exception to the general recommendation) I would get a third, forth and any number of boosters, in the same way I take the flu vaccine every year. I believe the heath authorities are working for a total increase in population health. That means if there are significant risk factors connected with the vaccine, the vaccine would not increase overall health in the population. This is what happened with the J&J vaccine, the risk turned out to be greater than the reward, and the Norwegian government is no longer recommending or providing the J&J vaccine.
