Rant below:
Dumbass on YT who has a record shitting on the RWBY has decided to do a vid where he says the community is responsible for the delay of greenlighting; because y'know people don't support AU's (and I doubt he means the good ones, instead likely thinking of "Ruining RWBY" type that are an insult to the show) or don't support sexualizing of characters or straight-washing characters. I guess everyone should continue to blindly support those people cause "fandom", instead of going "nooooooope".
Also while giving Miles credit for his voice work, making sure to put in a backhand to everyone else likely the female VA's; because ofc a piece of shit incel/neckbeard is going to do that. Which shouldn't be shocking cause iirc this neckbeard asshole has already taken shots at Barb and Arryn in the past.
The moron also thinks that rich vs. poor is a wrong concept probably in general but he's talking about the Atlas arc; y'know where it was repeatedly shown that such divide existed. But as usual this crowd doesn't care about that, just whatever bullshit they think matters or doesn't. And this jackass gives off the exact vibes one would think of from someone that takes issue with a commentary about poor vs. rich as a concept. Also directly mentioning Celtic thus confirming that the likely AU was "Ruining RWBY"-'s bullshit.
Keep in mind Ruining RWBY did:
faunus heat cycles
putting in shipping push for Velvet/Cardin
inserted in fanservice sauna scenes
brought back Roman in an asspull fashion and put him with Ozpin, even though there's not a shred of commonality between them
had Ruby blush towards Roman
Blake join what amounts to a police squad against other faunus (like people want to take issue with the show proper for its WF arc, this is an actual OOF on that front)
side-lined the main female characters to boost up male characters
fucking tries to redeem and boost up Cardin aka Mr. White Supremacist Douchebag
Like nah, fuck that shit. I'll keep shitting on that and any other disgusting ass fan-work that does certain things till the cows come home. I won't support a fan artist that makes wlw art, yet doesn't believe in irl same-sex rights; I won't support a racist, homophobic, sexist, and overall disgusting piece of shit like Celtic; or anyone else for the sake of "being a good fan" and "part of the community". Community isn't an accepting all thing and instead good ones root out the bad.
Anyway point is if you do searches on YT, ignore the one with Anime in the channel name.

relative to your javelin/plumbata post, Tod Todeschi or some other Pollack last name does do a lot of experimental archaeology type videos where he tests stuff like that. Results vary but I respect he will actually try stuff out.
But I am autistically into old smelting and bronze/iron age stuff as well and I think there's a lot of potential on how many things we take for granted now as commonplace used to be extremely limited. Certain foundries and smelters, even if privately owned, would be borderline national secrets/treasures because they could consistently produce good quality metals or knew HOW to build them right. On par with monks sneaking silkworms out of china. We have accounts of Vikings making it as far as Afghanistan specifically to find burial mounds for Indo Persian wootz blades.
The Hittites were pretty good at early Ironworking for example and well-made bronze is probably better than iron except bronze is an alloy and iron can be refined much easier. I know the French weirdly kept refining brass and ARCO brass/other types in the 19th century and while not the same strength as steel the way the US and Brits innovated, French Brass was stronger than anyone else's.
Fuck I mean IIRC the Chinese spent centuries in West/Central asia like the Stans trying to learn how to breed better warhorses because old horses used to be a lot smaller and things like chariots were how you utilized horses in war instead of individually.
There's so much cool shit you can do just around the idea of foundries and smelting and it's not even been 200 years since we really figured out steel and even the 1990s saw a huge increase along with aluminum technology. Even the first Conan movie kinda touched on this with how rare materials were relatively speaking. I'd love to see a period or fantasy related story that deals with a lot of intrigue and logistical concerns like that. A warlord fighting a grueling campaign that makes no sense tactically but it's because he wants to capture a series of foundries that utilize some mythical pass high in the mountains for their bellows, or specifically daming part of a river to create a faster pressure current for a downward falling water wheel for the actual forging.
Prior to modern technologies, making steel was a literal pain in the ass and insanely wasteful. Closest analogy I can think of is raising an entire cow from birth, killing it, and only taking 1 cut of meat from the carcass and leaving the rest. You didnt "make" steel, you made this disgusting lump of iron and carbon as homogeneous as you could and prayed to God that at the center was a nice good hunk of steel you could then forge into an ingot.
Also FWIW it's less that the javelins were designed to break and bend IMO and simply that its a possibility especially in an actual battle. Oakeshott talks about Celtic leaf bladed swords and the front ranks retiring to the rear to bend kinks out of them. I'd say it's less about iron vs steel and more about heat treat and fucking NO ONE figured out actual mathematical heat treat shit until very recently. Toledo made swords (also known as a specific pattern of blade kind of like a thrusting claymore) are famous for having very rigid blades at their base but very flexible and springy at the tips. In the era where heat treat was more like a cooking recipe or an AdMech ritual than hard scientific fact, being able to CONSISTENTLY produce good heat treated blades was a huge sign of quality. Sorry for the autism but I love metallurgical history.
Nah, you're good, big dog. Most of the concepts are familiar to me, but they're good for bringing to the general discussion table without, you know, me having to type all of that out.
But yeah, the main crux of my argument is based on a few things you mentioned. You, as far as I understand it, can't just go off and harden the average stuff you'd have gotten out of a mine in the Roman empire, even after being smelted. You need to tap the famous and rare(esque) deposits of The Good Shit and buy ingots and such from them. Like you said, on a gross scale they can tell by this point how the carbon-iron interaction is working, but they're much less familiar with, like, ingots from bumfuckulum are better than ingots from frottingshire because of the specific nickel and magnesium content or whatever.
And like you mentioned, being able to consistently produce heat-treated steel is a sign of quality, which means your smiths (Roman ordnance smithies-- insofar as any existed-- local dudes who live near the garrison, dude who follows around the army with his dinky forge setup) can't be average smiths, you can only hire big-dick smiths to do their fanciest work, which is pretty stupid to do for an item that, speaking from a soldier's perspective, is gonna handled roughly, barely maintained, and haphazardly reclaimed. Plus it's a long, narrow spike of metal in an army that used shortswords and small-segmented, scale and mail armor. This is like 1500 years before we're good enough at metallurgy to be making rapiers and suchlike, your javelins have a short service life anyway. Just doesn't make sense to go whole-ass on quality from a logistics point of view. It's just that "they were meant to bend in an enemy's shield" makes them sound cool and clever and you cool and clever for knowing that, whereas "they did it to save money and production time" just sounds boring and lame to Joe Average.
On a related topic to something you mentioned, it seems like the understanding is spreading that early iron was of moderate-at-best advantage against good quality bronze work, and lacks several very real advantages that bronze has. It just so happens that bronze leaves you utterly dependent on trade networks to source at least one of those high-demand metals that generally aren't found together, while iron you "just" source and smelt and work. I've seen more and more people suggesting what immediately occurred to me when I read this, which was that not being reliant on trade networks meant you could be a lot more aggressive with relative impunity, and this explains a lot of infamous Iron-age belligerence more than just "they were powerful and vengeful and had Super Swords"

1st March
St David’s Day
Tumblr media
Source: Welsh Saints from Welsh Churches by Martin Crampin/ Mae Ffydd Yn Cyrif website
Today is St David’s Day. The patron saint of Wales, David died on 1st March 589. He was founder and Abbot of Glyn Rhosyn monastery in Dyfed (now the town of St Davids). The construction of David’s monastic seat was not trouble free and his builders were assailed by a local pagan known as Boia who wanted to prevent the work going ahead. David, who was a great preacher and proselytiser, spoke to Boia and converted him to Christianity on the spot. Although Boia’s wife then sent her handmaidens naked to distract David’s labourers, such was the saint’s oratorical power, not a man wavered and the monastery was completed.
David’s fame spread when he began miraculously to make wells appear, but his patron sainthood really owes itself to his spirit appearing to King Cadwallon of Gwynedd on the eve of the Battle of Hatfield Moors in South Yorkshire against King Edwin of Northumbria. He advised the Britons to place leeks in their helmets, the better to distinguish themselves from their English foes in the heat of battle. This they did and triumphed on the field. Although this visitation confirmed David as the patron saint of Wales and the leek as its national vegetable, Cadwallon himself did not consider himself Welsh (an English term for “foreigner”): as far as he was concerned, he was leading a Celtic attempt to evict the invading Angles from northern Britain, and he nearly succeeded. Nonetheless, from the British victory at Hatfield, it became traditional for the Welsh to wear leeks on St David’s Day, although these days a discreet daffodil lapel pin is more likely to be seen.
In Lanark, an obscure, but possibly quite ancient, mock battle takes place at the local church, named Whuppity Stourie. Two sets of lads, representing New and Old Lanark, run three times sunwise round the church before engaging in combat, traditionally using their caps as weapons, at Wellgate Head. The fight now takes place with paper maces, after the two gangs had dangerously substituted their caps for stones. With its running around a sacred building followed by a pummelling contest, Whuppity Stourie may have a winter vs spring ritual origin, with the forces of winter darkness being beaten back, but ultimately it may merely have been a way of controlling youthful gang violence in the town.

I think the idea of "helping save" is kind of the issue? Like obviously you can learn any language and if some random person wherever in the world wants to learn irish for their own interests that's great. But the idea that somebody not living in ireland learning irish is saving the language? Seems a bit off in a way that's hard to articulate. It's just someone learning a language, a completely morally neutral act. And to have that framed as something like charity is once again off-putting in a way that's hard to describe. (This isn't meant as hate btw)
Alright, so I’m taking this in good faith, and that you are working off of something that, as you say, is hard to articulate, especially since I’m coming at this with different life experiences and this whole history with it that likely doesn’t match yours. Which isn’t a bad thing, it just means I’m going to have a different perspective.
And I am a Yank! I’m going to emphasize this, because I think it’s important. And I’m aware that I’m a Yank, that I’m not Irish and that I’m not Welsh, but, in my defense, I am a Yank who’s lived in Ireland, studied in Ireland, who has strong working relationships in Ireland, especially in the Gaeltacht, who has studied the Irish language at all stages of development, and who has friends involved in the preservation of every single one of the presently living Celtic languages. I have had numerous discussions about the current status of the Irish language with native speakers at all levels of the educational system. I think that I am allowed to have something resembling an opinion on it. This is not me bragging, this is not me saying that I know more about Ireland than the Irish, because I genuinely don’t believe I do. It’s me establishing my credibility.
To be blunt, if people don’t speak a language, it will die. This can involve everything from academic texts to Twitter conversations. To speak a minority language, to attempt to keep it alive…it is something that is not neutral. I am not saying it’s a moral positive, because I don’t feel comfortable with the notion that I sometimes see in circles of native Irish speakers that not speaking Irish = not being patriotic enough. But I don’t believe it’s neutral. And I think that anyone using Irish in any capacity, even if it’s via Tweets, is helping in some capacity by enabling Irish language conversation. This is what I have been told by multiple native speakers in the Gaeltacht, this is not something I’m pulling out of a hat. (I once had an instructor tell a second or so generation Irish American that she was more of an Irishwoman than most people in Ireland — you’ll notice I do *not* go that extreme because again, I get very nervous around some of that rhetoric, I think it can be pushed to extremes very quickly and, frankly, shits on anybody in Ireland who does not speak Irish, which is counterproductive. I think we have to dump this Patrick Pearsean way of looking at things.)
And I think this question of like…in Ireland VS out of Ireland is kind of historically redundant, isn’t it? Because…Ireland has an extensive history around emigration. And, frankly, I have a lot of conflicting opinions around Irish Americans and Irish American identity, I think that it’s a fraught topic and, quite frankly, often leads to things getting heated very quickly. (Especially on the side of Irish Americans, which…again…I have complicated feelings about.) But, the truth is, historically and up to the present, there are Irish speakers who have had to leave Ireland for the States or Canada. They didn’t lose their Irishness and they didn’t lose their language. There were active Irish speaking regions all over North America, with some places being Irish speaking until only a couple of decades ago. Were they keeping the Irish language alive? I’m inclined to think so. And if their children wanted to learn Irish, do I believe that they would be keeping it alive? …honestly, yes. I’m not Irish American, and frankly, they often annoy me, but I do see their perspective, especially since I’ve worked with a number of Irish Americans, both in a professional context and while studying in the Gaeltacht, who have convinced me of their genuine zeal for the language. And I’ve been to pop up Gaeltachts in the States, where people do try to keep their Irish sharp, often attended by émigres, often by people with either fluency or near fluency (certainly better than mine.) But the point I’m trying to raise, I suppose…and it’s a complicated one, and I don’t have an answer for it is that…if there wasn’t an Ireland anymore. If it sank into the sea because of some freak explosion or something…and there were people still speaking the language — not just in the States, let’s toss the States out of it entirely, but anywhere where Irish people have gone to…would the Irish language still be alive and living?And…I don’t think it’d be in a healthy state, no, because most of the Irish speakers would be gone, and it would lose the centralization that it currently has, but I think it would be both. Alive in the sense that it still would have speakers and living in the sense that the language would be evolving.
And now, as for the rest of the point, and this is why it’s important to understand that this is not, primarily,, even just about me, even though it was at least partially inspired by certain comments that people have made towards me over the years as a medievalist with a specialization in Old Irish materials: this was actually, mainly, inspired by a post that I saw on here where…I don’t want to say the author’s name, because even if it isn’t confidential information, I do feel a burden of care to them, but a certain very high profile author was learning Irish, had gotten a degree from an Irish uni, and had spent time in the Gaeltacht. And this post was ripping into not just them, but their degree, saying that if you want to study Irish, you should be shouted at for seven hours, making fun of them using Irish. And some of it I agree with! In the sense that they were discussing how they felt like this author had not always done well with characters of color, and I think that’s a valid critique, but a solid portion of it was just being outraged that this high profile author, who has the potential to really inspire a generation of people, not just outside of Ireland, but INSIDE of it, to view this language as something kind of desirable and interesting and...potentially even glamorous, was learning Irish, which I didn’t feel was productive.
I am not saying that the Irish need North American saviors to come in and teach their poor, confused selves how to use their own language. That isn’t my belief. I am echoing what I have heard repeatedly from native Irish speakers which is that the only way to keep a language alive is to use it, and the more people speaking it and learning off of one another and enriching their vocabulary at all levels, the better. I don’t think we’re the key to saving the language, no, and I don’t believe that Yanks who learn Irish are More Irish Than The Irish, but I do believe that it helps, yes. I think it's the key behind Irish language TV shows, blog posts, and Twitter accounts, it's the key behind Irish language books and songs, including pop songs. I’m sorry, but that is my belief on the matter. And the key to my post is also that untangling the idea of language = culture = identity doesn’t even help the Poor Oppressed Americans, but it does also help Irish people who do not speak Irish, it helps immigrants, it helps POC who often feel excluded from Irish and Welsh language learning because of the idea of them not “really” being Irish/Welsh. I don’t want the takeaway here to be “poor oppressed Americans”, I want it to be “in general, it’s better to enable Irish language conversation rather than shut it down, at least in my opinion, and to not be shitty to people.”
…also where were you when that one AITA Reddit post of a girl only speaking Irish to her friends in Ireland, even when they didn’t know that much and were asking her to stop, was going viral on here? Because that was the opposite of treating the language as a neutral and was generally applauded (even if I thought it was kind of shitty.)
But, anyway, thank you for that, I think that gave me a lot to chew on and I hope that it gave you something to chew on as well.
