Hey new followers, perhaps it's time to say hi and reintroduce myself! 💛

I'm Sam Santala, a concept artist specialising in creature designs and stylized art. I've worked for clients like Rare, Ubisoft, and Disney. Nice to meet you all!
I started an intense Finnish course which asked me to listen to Finnish music.

I was listening to some and my wife said, "oh this is very much about a specific feeling and time in Finland. It's where he's very depressed and drunk and shoots into a bar and then kills himself :)

FInland's economy is so bad right that when I read this I thought it wouldn't surprise me if it was a member of the government asking how they fix this shit because they're so economically illiterate.

Rheinmetall, Saab, and BAE all up around 6-10% too. So the markets think that Europe will begin arming itself (Not a bad idea)

Getting nervous about the state of the world, and Europe specifically. I think a war is inevitable, that Europe will be in the sights of both Russia and the US, and that no real steps to deal with this are taking place

I've been hoping to gain skills that can be useful, but I worry its too late

A week of intensive Mandarin study on this app and apparently I've reached HSK Level 1, which I doubt because I still *barely* understand and script. Just the pinyin.

Does anyone seriously believe the US will willingly let go of Venezuela. I can very much see it just become unofficial unincorporated US territory.

Finland's Government: "Immigrants needs to learn Finnish!!"

Also them: "Cut the Finnish language education"

I was bored and thought I'd start learning Mandarin for fun. Glad they're teaching the useful phrases

I've seen so many negative posts about my home country the UK lately, but reading this thread of people around the world and what their opinion is of the UK has genuinely been really heartwarming.
