Can Americans please not bring Irish Gaelic names into white names discourse?

Irish is the native language of Irish people. It’s an ancient language that is on the brink of extinction as a direct result of colonialism and cultural and physical genocide.

Names like Saoirse (freedom), Áine (radiant), Aoife (beautiful) etc are traditional Irish names. They’re spelt “funny” because Irish is a different language from English, and has some sounds that aren’t found in the English language.

It’s not the same thing as edgy white Americans naming their kid Kathylyn instead of Kathleen to try to be different

Also it's not even called Irish Gaelic it's called Gaeilge (gayl-ga) and is its own language, a beautiful one at that, fully encourage everyone interested in language revival to try learning it because we're losing it rapidly and there's not many Gaeilgeoirí ("gayl-gor-ee" ie: fluent speakers) left

hi hey hello this post has been made before but please try not to make fun of people for their autistic traits such as

• telling the same joke/ wanting to have the same conversation over and over again

• not having much coordination and having a tough time doing “easy” things like tying shoelaces

• having trouble understanding what you mean and needing lots of clarification

• needing things to be broken down into little steps

• having extremely high or extremely low empathy

• getting very attached to things like inanimate objects

there are a lot more but these are just ones i haven’t seen mentioned before!! feel free to add on if u think of anything else

hey so turns out my parents were unwilling to pay my 95$ application fee for a college summer program and I had to pay it in its entirety; I recently found out the program intervenes with my school life and that I won’t be able to attend, period. I don’t want to beg for money given I’ll start working in the summer but I need the 95$ back and I do commissions for about 5 dollars for each 500 words. please message me for details

[outerheaven-moved]

ive recovered about 25 dollars but I still have 70 dollars to account for. please boost if you can

As a general rule, if you’re going to swing into my inbox and state that you believe another user is problematic in some way, I would ask that you do it off anon and back up your remark with actual evidence of bad behavior. I have no interest in giving genuinely malicious people a platform by reblogging them or giving malicious people a platform by participating in a game of callout telephone for a stranger, and I can’t make that determination with anons.

yo i understand the animal population depletion is a horrible consequence of the aussie bush fires and those animals are an important and adorable part of the now devasted environment, BUT before u go into white-vegan-feminist mode and donate money to charities exclusively assisting animal preservation, pls consider the 100s and 100s of Australians, especially indigenous australians who are being displaced and are now homeless, as well as the volunteers working tirelessly to help these people and fighting these fires, and that these people should be the first people u help, not animals. animal life is not more important than human life and never will be and if your way of appealing to people to help with the fires is via promoting animal charities then you’re at best extremely unhelpful and at worse, a racist. that aside, there’s no one to help animals without people. help people first, animals second, because people need help the most right now.

interesting how when ppl mention they tricked ppl into eating v*gan food under the assumption it was normal food people are fine with it/happy but if you trick a v*gan into eating meat you’re a terrible person and it starts WW3

[such-justice-wow]

Both are awful, don't fuck with people's diets.

[da-boy-o-kultur]

Honestly “tricking” a regular person into eating a vegan meal isn’t even tricking, it’s food, regular people don’t give a shit whether it has meat in it or not.

[scoutsmoocrew]

if you tell someone it’s meat but it’s actually a soy-based meat alternative it’s tricking. You better hope they don’t have a soy allergy 🙄

[l0dge49]

yeah i gotta chime in: i’m super allergic to multiple common vegan alternatives in recipes, like coconuts and bananas, so. yeah. i do care if it’s a vegan alternative because I Don’t Know What’s In That. if you serve me, hell, let’s say brownies, i’ll assume that they’re just regular everyday brownies.

and then you tell me they’re vegan and were made with bananas, and i’ve already figured that out because my throat is swelling and i feel like vomiting. and as the op said: some of the most common allergies are to soy and nuts. what if you ‘trick’ someone into eating tofu and it turns out they have an extreme soy allergy?  

the issue has not at all been ‘people want animal products in their food’, the issue was clearly stated to be ‘don’t trick people into eating things they professed to not like, because it can put them in the goddamn hospital’.
