me personally i think every american who wants to write fanfic about british media should be legally obligated to do extensive research on what terms are used over hear before posting it
#“6th grade” “band aid” “mom” “kiddo” SHUT UPPPPPP NO ONE SAYS THAT HERE#im not entirely sure how its done in england but here in scotland the school years are p1-p7 (5-11) and s1-s6 (12-17)#“band aids” are just called plasters here#the mum/mom thing i thought was obvious but apparently not#and yeah no one says kiddo here if u want nicknames for kids try pal pet or love depending on whos talking to who#there’s definitely more but its been driving me up the wall#the magnus archives#<- bcz i was just reading a fic there#harry potter#mauraders#<- bcz my sister’s in those fandoms and is as annoyed as i am#doctor who#cant think of any other fandoms rn but like guys please#fanfic#ryan shut the fuck up#ignore me#except dont pls listen to my advice and stop americanising everything it takes me out of the story so hard

#snap chats#it was funny cause she kept insisting I Was From Scotland like girl no ive never even left the east coast i PROMISE#she kept asking like i was lying like 'no seriously where are you from' like Ma'am I Will Give You The Hospital I Was Born In#sorry i deceived you with my weird ability to mimic accents Adequately#i promise im not playing games the closest i got in me is irish and thats just from my dad's grandpa who ive never met ever#funny as hell .....also why the fuck is it almost time for my last class CAN TIME FUCKING SLOW DOWN#but yeah its even funnier cause if i was ever given the Where Are You From treatment i imagined itd be because my familys filipino#nay .. it just cause i watched too many james mcavoy interviews one week .....

Ugggghhhhh this xiaohongshu thing is funny or whatever but I literally flew to London to visit my Chinese situationship for a few days and he was more interested in videos of Americans butchering mandarin than the actual real life guy that travelled down to see him
#like when i wanted to come hang out i didnt mean leaning my head on his shoulder while he scrolls through the app#literally all the time. while eating dinner. while watching a movie. morning noon and night#having to literally yank his arm and snap my fingers in his face because i just asked 3 times what the plan is for dinner#and he straight up ignored that i said anything#we were supposed to go to the natural history museum and then hit up the gay bars yesterday but he decided he didnt want to#because he wasnt really feeling it#and yeah ofc i could have just said ok cool im going anyway see you later tonight#but i didnt come to london to be a tourist i came to visit him#he would literally just grab the remote and rewind the film we were watching bc he wasnt paying attention and needed to catch up#keeps asking questions about everyoen in the film and complaining bc it doesnt make any sense#my brother in christ you wanted to watch this film. you decided this was the film for the night#but youre too busy telling guys on grindr that unfortunately youre not available tonight#grinds my fucking gears#telling him that we should do something nice because weve only got one full day left “oh its ok ill come up to scotland in like a month”#“we can hang out then” IM LITERALLY HERE RIGHT NOW. IM HERE NEXT TO YOU RIGHT NOW.

please, mr sunak!
gonna post some content about the uk gen election for some lols
so yeah, not a fan of communist revolutions (somehow they always produce two outcomes: authoritarian regimes and a stalin. you can fight me over this but tell me a communist revolution that had zero purges or "labour" camps. is it something to do with being anarchist leaning? possibly) but totally going to support this one if it comes true.
edit: it took an embarrassingly long time to find "encure". no you won't find it, but you'll be able to work out where it WAS
#anarchy in the uk#rishi sunak#uk politics#england#politics#scotland#wales#northern ireland#is#cornwall#worth tagging?#general election#going to be a lot of britstans incoming#how's having 9/10 poorest local governments in the entirety of the eurpean union feel?#yeah but also fuck kier stammer for being t-blair light

like I wish my life had gone differently and i hadn't made the same mistakes i did make, that i made for years, and would still be in Glasgow, but at least I'm not with Sandyford, thank God for that
#explanation: Sandyford is by far the worst GIC in Scotland: they are still at 2018 for first appointments. they never get back. they always#fuck up etc#but then i had to move away last year so i finally got on legal testosterone this year yay:)#but yeah my life could have been so perfect if i had been different and i hadn't been such a fuckup#but i still wouldnt have had my initial appointment so silver linings ig

Historians trying to claim that two historical figures weren't sleeping together because "masculinity was different back then" and "the courtly language was more flowery" are so funny to me. Like yes they do in fact have a point about that, things that would be weird or inappropriate now maybe weren't back then. But almost every time I see that claim about a historical figure, I go look at some of their actual letters/quotes and then it's ALWAYS shit like: literally calling the other man his wife, talking about how well the other guy knows his dick, etc. Like yeah masculinity WAS different back then, but also, they were kissing in public what more do you WANT.
#nonsense#gay shit#chatter#lgbt history#off the top of my head i always think of alexander hamilton bc like yeah maybe he and laurens werent in love but#pretty strong evidence they fucked imo#and also the people trying to argue king james wasnt queer is so idjgirjgierjgs#like king james#even during his rule people knew#the fucking minisitry ran one of his lovers out of scotland because of it

Controversial (United States) opinion that shouldn’t be controversial, from someone that lives in the USA
on the Freedom of Speech amendment (USA):
“freedom of speech” protects your right to stand up to the government, to protest in ways that could otherwise be outlawed (such as burning the country flag or posting about what they’re doing wrong on social media).
“freedom of speech” does not mean you will be pardoned for every crime that involved you speaking about something unrelated to government protest.
“freedom of speech” does not mean that there won’t be consequences from your fellow citizens if you choose to use that ‘freedom’ to harm others.
it does not mean that you have the right to verbally abuse, verbally harass, threaten, or use your words in a hate crime against someone (especially under protected statuses, like gender identity, sexual/romantic orientation, race, etc.).
it does not mean that you can tell fellow voters you hope their queer/trans children die or get assaulted if they don’t want to vote for Biden, or Trump, or whomever*.
(* this has actually happened to our adoptive ren E (they/them) repeatedly about our little brother Q (he/they). yes, admitting they don’t like Biden due to the shit he’s allowing, doing, encouraging, etc. has actually gotten these kinds of comments...from democrat/“liberal” Biden supporters, of all people. they told ren E that they hope Q dies.)
it does NOT mean you can say whatever you want about everything, forever. it protects your speech against the government only.
so no, freedom of speech does not prevent you from being arrested for hate crime, harassment, abuse, etc.
no, it does not protect you from being kicked out of a business after verbally harassing/abusing or sexually harassing an employee (or many employees).
no, it does not protect you from fellow citizens counter-protesting or from them telling you that you are factually incorrect.
no, it does not protect you from legal repercussions if you use your online presence to bully, harass, abuse, etc. other people, or if you doxx people, or if you threaten someone or their child.
Freedom of Speech is part of Freedom to Protest. they go hand in hand.
you have the right to say ‘hey I don’t like the government doing [insert atrocity here (Palestine, Iraq, etc.)] / passing [insert a law or policy that hurts people]’.
you do not have the freedom to say ‘fuck you and your whole culture/country/gender/identity/etc.’ to another person.
I don’t expect this to go far but I wanted to say it...somewhere. and here is the best bet because FB would lose its mind & the algorithm might bite my ass if I openly call Palestine an atrocity or call out...anything, really. they repress content like this.
(Facebook is very anti free speech (/srs), funny enough (/sarcastic, frustrated); it suppresses pro Palestine content but doesn’t remove the most hateful bullshit spread all over its platform...and pro Palestine is, in fact, speaking up against the government.)
you (general/nbh) should be more angry about Facebook and TikTok and Twitter suppressing anti government anything (pro Palestine, pro LGBT+ progress, ‘we should actually fund schools’, etc.). you (general/nbh) should be less angry about laws that protect people from harm.
that is all.
(this was inspired by USA newspaper lash-back on Scotland’s new anti hate crime law. maybe the law isn’t perfect, but it’s a step in the right direction, & it is not an infringement on freedom of speech.)
(incase this breaks containment: hateful replies, reblogs, asks, etc. will be blocked)
~Nico (he/they)
#it’s still mind boggling that someone actually said that to our parent#like what. what the fuck.#they didn’t tell Q so as not to scare him but I’m so angry on his behalf.#i adore him. he’s such a good kid & good sibling & good person.#but yeah.#the new Scotland law is revealing again that people think freedom of speech means they can hate crime / threaten people#and they're whining about it in newspapers#loke no that isn’t what it does 😬#*like#I’m tired.#the state of the world is exhausting. my autistic sense of justice is screaming nonstop now. wordless screams.#~Nico#usa#united statesian#united states#hate crime law#scotland#us politics#politics

You know the love that France(is) and Joan (of arc) have in Canon,
the sort of "I love you too much for what time we had together, I've never hated my immortality more then for it not letting me see you again/I'll remember you forever and every one shall know it, eventualy nowone will be sure you existed becouse my love mythologicalised you so much. "
Yeah I don't think france should be the only nation with that sort of thing. I think they all have like a 'you get One. no mockery, Promise' sort of thing cause all cultures have like a warrior or just a great person that got grandurised so much in death now nowone is sure they were real or myths.
I think scotlands/Angus' was William Walise. And I'm little stuck thinking of one's for the others.
#I think#The only rule would be no monarchs becouse a. That's their boss and b. Monarchy rules say they new them as a baby and ewww. Also c. Fuck mo-#Hc#Canon Scotland is an Angus more then he could Ever be an Allister argue with the wall. Fanon scot yeah Def but no way Canon scot.#- a real in Scotland Scottish person#hetalia#hws#yeah#hws france#hws scotland#joan of arc#I'm stuck between Robin hood and blackbeard for Arthur#Robin hood is Def more mythogical but Arthur would have been like 4 and double ewww so maybe just like intense puppy love?#Nation headcanons#historical hetalia#?

#might delete this later because i havent actually done extensive research on it#this is purely just based on my own personal opinions#but labour seriously fucked it when they stopped caring about any country in the uk that wasnt england#like a lot of the people in scotland moved from labour to snp especially because of that#because they moved away from their original left wing working class roots#i guess what im trying to say is just that its a shame and this is exactly why we just need independence#we are completely separate countries that are running on different systems and politics#the only thing still being connected to england is doing to us at this point is ensuring we remain held back and dragged down with them#and its sad you know because we voted to remain in the eu during the brexit vote. and i really believe the only reason we didnt get#independence the last time it was voted for is purely because we were for all staying together and staying within the eu. there was just too#much up in the air at that point. and then we got fucked over 2 years later by england voting for brexit.#sigh. anyways like i said i dont actually know anything for fact this is my own personal feelings. but yeah its just a shame really#le text post

i’m gonna be real chief it still hasn’t like. entirely sunk in that i never have to go back to the lawyer job ever again and i can say i’m a full-time tattoo artist
like the next few months are gonna be real hard work, but at least it’s hard work that i give a shit about and enjoy and will be Rewarding, and isn’t doubled up with More hard work that i don’t care about at all and makes me miserable
and like. also. if nothing else i know from the last year i Can put in the hard grind. i put in the hard grind under a metric fuckton of other deeply stressful circumstances. i know i can work hard and i can make this work and even if it’s not immediate, there will be tangible progress no matter what. i feel like this is something i can really sink my teeth into and thrive at, and i’m so excited to keep learning the craft and improving and doing something that brings me genuine fulfilment
hopefully i can check back in a year and be like Hell Yeah Buddy You Did It that’d be super super nice
#if this is my reward for surviving the last few years then Fuck Yeah I’m So Ready#and when i’m able to make a move up to scotland and do a thing i love and come home to the person i love?#man that’s gonna be just. chef kiss. incredible#personal
