#bc i have beef with the cornish

[oifaaa]

I’m 98% sure gotham is nowhere near close to Britain but I feel like Tim would still have a British accent

British accent is too vague im gonna say tim sounds like he's from Cornwall

besides the nazis I do also have a MUCH LESSER beef with the Norse-larping/identifying white people who really do give me the “thinks they suffer the same way indigenous people suffer from the Christian white hegemony” and “thinks this opts them out of being realllly settler colonists… if you think about it…. They have an indigenous white(tm) set of beliefs” that are super true and extra spiritual and in harmony and then they pretend they can even know that. When I’m sorry — I truly am sorry — some ancient people in Europe did experience conquest by (also pagan, then Christian, Rome) and shit and they can empathize with that… but it doesn’t mean that “really” “if we think about it” any rando modern white nonindigenous (eg not Samí) person anywhere has comparable heritage or trauma or persecution around it. You can just feel they want to claim that. Sometimes they do word for word.

And i swear it’s niche. It’s not even the main motive most people have. but it’s around. I classify it as more of a whites irritating me shit than a big issue but that doesn’t mean I don’t see it for what it is.

man people have forgotten what the acronym LARP means. norse larpers are very cool & fun in my experience ✌️ i love larp i love silly little outfits i love people being so passionate abt smthn they immerse themselves in a whole world of it i love that they always have smthn cool to teach. everyone stop misusing larp its gotten weird and confusing

this is so wild tho i think ive like. never come across this type of person. i guess it must be niche cause i don't even know if u mean like. europeans or americans or scandinavians or the english or what. i mean i guess ive come across plenty of pagans (& non-pagans tbh) of all sorts who bang on about how christians 'stole' this holiday or that holiday from 'the pagans' which comes from some basis of truth and the christians did fucked up shit to a lot of different cultures.. but i kind of roll my eyes at it bc it doesnt usually come from much actual knowledge or persecution & more just, like u say, wanting to claim an experience. so im with u as far as that. but u gotta be crazy to think being of viking descent would somehow mean u have no history of invading or settling places that didn't want u like... our word for them literally comes from the word specifically for those who would travel overseas to raid & settle there. like im from the uk so i can't imagine how that would work bc anyone here of viking descent (i Will be that guy nd say its technically in my past somewhere too lol ✌️ according to my grandmother & also according the the family surname. but thats really common where im from we got decent viking history) is obviously not indigenous (we dont like. have indigenous ppl here anymore really except perhaps the cornish) nd any white americans have settler/coloniser history much more recently anyway. ive never known any scandinavians who try n make out like their history is one of particular repression (i have not known very many scandinavians) but tbh like. yeah they were severely fucked over by the christians that did happen. as far as im aware most scandinavians are indigenous as i understand the word (their ancestors didnt move in any time recently & have pretty much always lived there) but aren't like. oppressed for that. & the christians did genuinely oppress ppl in their act of christianisation but that was... a long time ago so most ppl don't exactly have any claim to 'trauma' from it. but then, there probably are a lot of modern ásatrúar who are probably still somewhat religiously repressed in their home country which is definitely a bad thing & is clearly a hang-over from that time & from that christian mindset that everyone must be like them & worship the same god as them. but its very very different to struggles of ppl like the sámi.

sry for just kind of thinking aloud here but as i say i don't think ive come across the ppl ur talking abt, so much so that i dont know. who u are talking about. other than the generic annoying 'pagan' types but i havent rly known any actual heathens who do that. other than the nazis.

Just in line with that last post (for my ESL followers who may not know this bc English is Homonym Hell and idk how common pasties are outside the UK):

A pasty (pronounced: pæsti) - as in pumpkin pasty in Harry Potter or a Cornish pasty - is a traditional Cornish food, which is basically a mix of meat and vegetables (usually beef with potatoes, onion and swede), fried up together and parcelled up in pastry (usually made with suet or lard) with a crimped edge:

This was basically a portable lunch/dinner for miners and field-workers. No need for crockery or cutlery! Just hold it by the crust and eat the middle bit. Fits in your pocket too and can last for a few days! Nowadays they’re still quite popular in the UK (especially in Cornwall - any time I’m in Cornwall I have to get a Cornish pasty!)

A pasty (pronounced: peɪ sti), on the other hand, is a nipple cover worn by burlesque dancers or underwear models (and also an adjective meaning paste-like).

Side note I said Homonym Hell and I meant it but technically these are homographs not homonyms bc they have the same spelling but not the same pronunciation!

Wait i can give anon more context<3

yeah the outside is similar to a calzone but kinda flaky-er? traditionally ones from the UP are filled with beef, potatoes, carrots and rutabaga! They were probably adapted from english cornish pasties….

there’s versions of them around towns and regions in the US that were mining communities. They’re so popular in northern michigan bc the whole UP was (and still is in some parts) based around mining. Pasties were created so that miners could have a filling meal that they could carry easily and hold easily down in the mines! They’re kinda similar to salteñas actually if you’ve ever heard of those…

I’m afraid to ask, but what’s a pastie?

so I've never actually had one!! (tori pls dont kill me <3) but my understanding is that they're like,,, calzones but instead of pizza filling, it's like a meat stew filling. like a hand held pot pie almost, but more like a sandwich?? here I googled it just in case that didnt make sense. also the bottom definition is why you should NOT call it a "paystie" instead of a "pahstie" <3
