Vermo in Finland is hosting a horse event for hobby stick horses.

It is a wooden stick which have an horse head.
Then you put it between your legs and ride it.

It is a hugely popular new Finnish girl sport.

That looks like an event I would’ve greatly enjoyed watching at any age between 5 and 10, but probably not between 11 and 24. I’m pretty neutral on it now. I hope the participants have fun.

>Then you put it between your legs and ride it.
Does it vibrate?

in a way it kinda reminds me of traditional european activities, like dancing around a maypole or the atherstone ball game. at least it's not niggertwerking to niggerbeats.

It's like those kids with the little sail boats on that pond in Paris.

horse women are so autistic but autistic in a cute way. if only the 1200lb creatures they are so enamored with didn't cost a fortune in feed, transportation, housing, and vet bills

I'm sure Tina will be thrilled

Voila you have the recipe for a stick horse right there. Its something for these people who cant afford a real horse.

Fucking moomin people are weird

Seems cute and horsepilled.

Seems like a perfectly wholesome and authentic European activity done by pleasant and well meaning white People.

I'd let her ride my stick

Finnish women have an unhealthy obsession with horses in general.

thats cute

elf people

Mom, don't talk about my in laws like that and get off of Yas Forums YOUR EMBARRASSING ME

Sounds like we have the same wife

Eh, it's weird, but it's not like everything in our societies is 100% focused on survival anymore.
Let the girls have their fun. Having a tirade about this is like someone having a tirade of grown men painting model armies and using them for wargames with a 300 page rulebook.

this is advanced autism

This really puts the kybosh on the whole 'Fins are autisic freaks' thing

The push the stick into their privates that is why the love it!

Yeah, it's a really old concept, but for some reason girls and young women are taking it more seriously now in Finland. That's the new part.

you know that the toy was a boy toy for more then 3000 years? as the oldest are found in child graves in egypt.

she can ride my stick any day over the tatra.

Well I guess. back in the 80s I had one too. and everyone who did not have one couldn't belong to the "gang" and play with other boys.

Why they don't ride real horses?

will they pick mushrooms afterwards?

I assume in scandi it is difficult for most families to afford the real estate necessary to properly allow for grazing. Maybe also some annoying hoops to jump through to build stables and such? I can't say for sure. Perhaps it is also prohibitively expensive to purchase feed up there?

because the act of 1887 forbids any finish civilians, not working for the post or delivering goverment documents, from owning horses. And it was againt enforced after the troop rebelion in 1905, and extended to military personal too, if they were not lead by an officer.

I genuinely don't know if this is true or not. The memes make me think it is, but my burger heart recoils.

woah there are some old people in here

I'd wager that a large portion of people in the last few millennia remember this toy from their childhood.
The difference is that Vermo is not exactly just some small stadium. One must anticipate quite a large event to reserve that space. In other words this is not just some small time hobby club activity.

> A new government coalition in Finland has announced plans to use manure from the country's 77,000 horses to help heat some 20,000 homes, according to a report this week by the BBC. The effort is part of a larger movement away from fossil fuels.

Suomi what the fuck

Tell me about... My grandmother told me about a time when her aunt had come to visit us after my sister had been born and found it exceptionally strange that my mother seemed to be more hyped about our horses than by her new arrival. Thankfully my sister is the complete opposite and got rid of her horses as soon as she got a kid.

horseshit

I wouldn't dare criticise ladies for having a hobby. it would be very hypocritical.

Stay away from kids you absolute freak.

the 1905 rebelion was part of the disbanding of duma, and some kadet duma members fleeing to the dutchy of finland and trying to set up duma there.

1881 -1889 repressions were part of a state wide anti non russian, and no ortodox reforms.

Stopped because of finacial crissis, and returning after Witte stopped being the head of goverment. And really started going again after Stolypin became priminister.

Yeah... That's bullshit, that would be tantamount to forbidding civilians from owning cars or farmers from owning tractors.

Imagine going on the internet to tell lies.

Don't really see how this is a bad idea, seems like in the long run it would probably save money too

In this mythological documentary about a human tree, experimental animator Maarit Suomi-Väänänen equips a little birch stump with a pair of skis and a balaclava, and sends it gliding through a forest where others of its kind have just been felled. Wisps of smoke and mist suggest that the executioners have only just left, but the stump appears to have revenge on its mind. Skiing, falling and skiing on again, the little guy moves among the felled trees, sometimes pausing to ponder a particular stump. Is he shedding a tear? Is this perhaps a family member who has been brought down, or is he sad because of the inevitable fate he is facing himself? Groaning, he takes flight. Against the backdrop of this forest war zone, with the sound of chainsaws and explosions, we genuinely begin to wonder whether trees deserve more sympathy. Suomi-Väänänen creates the atmosphere of a cartoon film by using marionette animation and reversing the footage. A somewhat absurdist reflection on the nature within us all.

The Grand Duchy was an autonomous region governed by its own laws.

LoL you think that is a problem?
The let me intreduce you to some russian laws from the early XXth century. All teachers in the empire had to be Russian. If any of the students was Russian, all the lessons were suppose to be done in Russian(and the state was deciding if someone is or isn't Russian). Each school had religion lessons. But it did not matter if you were protestant of some sort, catholic, old ortodox, greco catholic, all prayer and all lessons were to be done in Russian. The laws worked in for private schools and learning institutions for women. And all of this only got extended and made harsher after 1909.


as the forbiding part goes. Between 1939-45 owning a bike or a radio was punishamble by death. after 1945, up till 1989 you could have a radio(but not a satalite dish, or a vcr for example), but it had to be registered, because you couldn't have a radio or a TV with which you could watch or listen to western or other soviet satalite countries programs.

Up till no longer being under tzar russia rule, non ortodox russians couldn't take loans in banks, couldn't buy land, were forbiden from creating banks or cooperatives. Heck people teaching children to read and write in languages other then Russian were risking jail time, and always were penlised with fines. And this included children teaching other children, parents teaching children.

Ah and after 1909, thanks to bishops Elogius intervention, students speaking in their mother language in schools were being relegated from school, and given the so called wolf ticket aka they couldn't go to another school etc

this, also I could imagine a lot of cute nerdy autistic white girls get into this shit. I might move to finland and start going to these events just for waifu.

of course sweetie

pretty sure she's autistic/retarded

yeah, so was the vistula land. Didn't stop Russians from giving them a 50/50 split in duma representatives, no matter what the size of population russian had in a given area. So 38k russian in warsaw elected as many MPs as 300k poles and 310k jews combined. At least till 1912 when jews were baned from being elected as MPs, doctors, officers in the military and police, judges etc.

this is very obviously sexual

>At least till 1912 when jews were baned from being elected as MPs, doctors, officers in the military and police, judges etc.

tell me more Jan

Stop! Don't touch me there.
This is, my no-no square.

The hell are you on about? Most hobbyists just train at a stable set up to accommodate just that, you don't need to own your own horse to ride one.

But it didn't happen in Finland and you're making shit up.

DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO DOO

nice feet.

It's a hobby for the nobility who have the money to spend.

Mutt nigger doesnt under why Europe is filled with wars and why they have pants on head retarded laws.

I'm okay with this. You have any idea of how much horses shit and how much heat it produces?

>Having a tirade about this is like someone having a tirade of grown men painting model armies and using them for wargames with a 300 page rulebook.

Fantasy wargaming is cringe though... If only they would sell this Prussian beauty.

I tell them straight "your photo is very deceiving..." They don't like that haha

But repaying lies with honesty is exactly what they deserve. Then they get to sit there at the restaurant table alone, seething or crying as I walk away. After that who cares what they do? Eat alone, make their excuses to the wait staff. Hopefully they feel great embarrassment

it did, the only difference is that post WWII you didn't have to be part of the warsaw packt, and spined the whole "dont anger the soviet zog, living under russian rule wasn't that bad" propaganda.

not saying it worked bad for you, by the way.

On top of that half the XIX century and all the early XXth century Russian was under permanent state of martial law. You had the same 24h Stolypin courts as everyone else had.

only thing you gained was that, after the financial crash in 1906, russians allowed you to replace your old 4 tier parliment with one, but to foil you they allowed women to be elected, and first election ended up with what 35-40% social democrats entering the parliment.

Not to be Bevis & Butthead immature
But.. I witnessed this a few yrs ago and actual thought it was satire .
Way to much thigh rubbing and genital contact for girls this age.
