Icelandic 'search' vs 'find': leita does it all — concrete objects, people, abstract goals like meaning or work. But 'find' is fragmented: finna covers most, reka marks surprise finds, uppgötva for discoveries, hitta for meetings. A neat typological case of asymmetry.

So, this is Iceland, huh? Tolerant Iceland? Ray are you done with your guitar yet?

"#Iceland is a nation that has always known how to keep its stories alive, from the medieval sagas to the living oral traditions that shaped its literature and language. But its more recent #history of #Jewish exile has gone largely untold for nearly a century until now — as #scholars have worked both to recover the #music that #Nazi persecution scattered across the globe and reconstruct an #Icelandic #musical history that offers a painful reminder of the country’s #Holocaust history.

The #musicians’ #story is the subject of a newly #translated #book, “Music at World’s End: Three Refugee Musicians from Nazi #Germany and Their Contribution to Iceland’s Music Life,” by #Icelandic #musicologist #ÁrniHeimirIngólfsson. It was #published in #English this year by #SUNYPress following the Icelandic edition in 2024.

The #book reconstructs the three refugees’ individual pathways to Iceland."

The last part of this pull quote is the actual story. Not all the quaint bullshit I was excited about.

"By 2024, the community had outgrown its rented rooms and church basements and purchased the building that became the new #Jewish center, roughly tying one in #Fairbanks, #Alaska, as the northernmost #Chabad houses in the world. The building sits in #Reykjavik’s compact downtown, just blocks from the iconic #RainbowStreet and #Harpa #OperaHouse that make the city one of the most Instagram-friendly sites in the world.

In a city that caters to tourists, and for a community built largely from #immigrants, longtime #Icelandic Jewish families, and people who married into Icelandic life, the new center represents something rare: a shared physical home.

“It’s been clear for a long time that we need a home for our community,” said one Jewish resident in #Iceland, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because not all of his colleagues know he is Jewish."

Thank you, Iceland, for producing this wonderfully fun, creative musical weirdo 😃👏
If you liked 80s synth-pop & really bizarre music videos - you're going to love this dude & his strange MV 😁🎶❤️🎵

Vor ungefähr einem Jahr bin ich beim Aufsteigen auf Helgi dumm gestürzt. Seine Reaktion war rührend (klickbarer Link im Bio):

Toasty outside today, so a Toasty Porter is the perfect accompaniment!

#einstok ÖlgerÐ Toasted Porter - Easy drinking for a hot day! Malty roasted medium-bodied with coffee and chocolate notes.

Dabbler Depot staff called it a “pontoon Porter”, easy to drink all day.

#einstok Toasted Baltic Porter

Agreed! Super easy drinking with everything you’d expect in a porter while presenting very light. Nice toasty malt and chocolate notes, hints of coffee.
