Ritual to bring back Gävlebocken
It's a bit late, but I learned something critically important about Gävlebocken, and I find myself shocked and disappointed it hasn't shown up in the fanart.
And yes, people have been caught doin' it inside the Gävle Goat. Macro artists, you had one job...

Mitt nyaste partytrick är att sopa fram lite halmsmul från Gävlebocken ur handväskan och ge som en gåva till den jag pratar med.

something really pisses me off about the fact that the gavlebocken just up and fell over last christmas. if it caught on fire that wouldve been cool. if it survived it wouldve been a monument to its arrogance. it just falling over is so hopelessly lame

You’ll have to manage without me yet again - I’m wrestling a really nasty cold, while being literally stuck at my mom’s. First there was a massive storm, and now there’s a blizzard…. Tough times.

I feel that 😭 I have cautiously disabled all stranger interaction on my Gävlebocken posts for this reason because way too many people make arson threats anytime it's mentioned :l
