ireland sending aid to native americans affected by the corona virus in return for their help during the famine that is truly iconic, big brain activity

seashellronan

after some more research i should clarify that it’s actually individual irish people donating to a gofund me to help members of the navajo nation in remembrance of the generosity of the choctaw tribe during the famine, which is very cool here’s an article

"from Irish donor, Pat Hayes, sent from Ireland across the ocean: “From Ireland, 170 years later, the favour is returned! To our Native American brothers and sisters in your moment of hardship.”

My distant grandfather was one of three chiefs around the time when the original aid was sent to Ireland— it’s a beautiful piece of history that ties Ireland to Native Americans (namely the Choctaw Nation) in a beautiful and profound way. Ireland has even recently set up a scholarship for Choctaw students to study in Ireland as part of the two nations deep history.

The Choctaw Nation had recently in its history (around the 1830s) gone through the Trail of Tears, and were hardly in a position to help any others while suffering so greatly. Yet, when news of the famine in Ireland surfaced, the Choctaw Nation gave more in aid than both the US and UK combined.

In 1847, only 14 years after their long, sad march along the Trail of Tears ended, Choctaw people in Oklahoma learned of the Irish famine. W

“The clitoris is pure in purpose. It is the only organ in the body designed purely for pleasure. The clitoris is simply a bundle of nerves: 8000 nerve fibres, to be precise. That’s a higher concentration of nerve fibres than is found anywhere else in the body, including the fingertips, lips, and tongue, and it is twice the number in the penis. Who needs a handgun when you’ve got a semiautomatic.” —Natalie Angier, Woman: An Intimate Geography artwork by Patrick Van der Elst

“they” (1 word) is shorter than “he or she” (3 words)

“they” is more inclusive than “he/she”

“themself” flows more naturally than “him or herself”

“they” is less clunky than “(s)he”

it’s time to replace the awkward “she or he”

We’ve been using they/them/their pronouns to indicate a person with unspecified gender for a long ass fucking time. The only reason it’s become a big issue lately is because it can be used as a semi-respectful term for trans and non-binary folks and we can’t have that can we

These fucks are literally trying to change our language to hurt trans/nb folks, and claiming that’s just the way its always been
