If the characters from A Confederacy of Dunces and South Park joined together and went a-viking, you’d get something like The Scandinavian Aggressors. 1/5

Östergötlandic Finds. This is a very nice book highlighting an assortment of historic artifacts from the Kingdom of Sweden’s best county. 1/2

Here, enjoy a runestone with a Thor’s hammer on it this Thursday (it’s next to a Lutheran church since that’s how things are).

In Edmund Spenser's The Faerie Queene, the enchantress Acrasia rules the Bower of Bliss, a luxurious garden where pleasure traps unwary knights. Sir Guyon eventually destroys it. The most beautiful place in the poem is also one of its most dangerous. #WyrdWednesday

Vikings didn’t carve Dighton Rock, but lots of people said they did anyway. Check out the new post for more about all that including a variety of images of both the rock itself as well as an actual legitimate runestone replica in Massachusetts. scandinavianaggression.com/2…
