The purported Piskey Queen, Joan the Wad.

While its likely she didn't originally start out as fairy royalty, her current position is well-established in the tourism and trinket business.

A Jack O' Lantern for MEEE?? A funfact for you, friend!

Did you know that Jack O' The Lantern, Will O' The Wisp, and Joan O' The Wad are all Cornish Pixies (or Piskies, in Cornish). Joan the Wad being the Queen of Piskies. For a brief time in I think the 20s you could buy trinkets of her image to wear for good luck!

You can still buy them Here

If I'm having a coherent thought then I'm njot drunk enough *pours more dr piskey*

[catgirltitties]

i wanna reblog oomf private post so bad bc it talks about dr piskey

[redacted-coiner]

Hey just wanted to note this being someone added this to the tags of my term Buck(link) (user being @piskey)

The name was chosen purely because hunk and buck sounded similar and that I wanted a animal. So please know there was no intent for any bad intent with it. I did not know there was any use of negative intentions with the word, I only associated it with the animal.

If you guys would like me to add a alternative name for the term please inform me. And if any idea please tell me!

[mogai-neuro-keysmash]

@piskey ‘neurotic’ just refers to someone with a neurosis, which is basically mental conditions of stress- it can include anxiety, obsessive thoughts, panic disorder, depression, hypochondria (illness anxiety), psychosis, etc. these symptoms can be called ‘neuroses’.

‘neuroticism’ is also used to describe a personality trait and you’ll see it in personality tests. people who score high in neuroticism are usually more anxious than other people

but neurotic is also used in a non-clinical way, sometimes in a derogatory way, to describe mentally ill people or people perceived as overly anxious/paranoid.

so if you have a mental illness like anxiety, OCD, depression, etc or if you’ve actually been described negatively with an adjective like neurotic (similar adjectives: deranged, mentally disturbed, hysteric) then you can reclaim it

TLDR: mentally ill people (especially those with anxiety, ocd-spec, or mood disorders) can reclaim the term neurotic. so yes you can identify with neurolexic!

Howie Broyles commented on Facebook: "Love the podcast. I have always liked Celtic music and anything to do with Scotland or Ireland. It wasn't until I took a DNA test that I figured out why. I always thought I was mostly German because of my name and where it originates. Turns out I got mostly my moms side and they are all UK based. Ireland, Scotland and Yorkshire. So now I even enjoy it more knowing that it is my history."

Aimee Greenfield sent a picture: "Hi Mark, I love to weave and listen to Celtic music. This music has inspired me for the last 30 years while creating! The music is definitely woven into my current project of Turkish Beach Towels. Thanks for the entertainment!"

Guest Blog - Skillywidden by Jack Daw (©2022)

https://www.tumblr.com/chattering-magpie-uk/717838906699235328/cornish-view-2008-3a In many parts of the world it is said that magical folk gain their magical powers from the spirits either by birth i.e. having the fairy blood or from some sort of interaction. In Cornwall some types of magical folk were said to be Skillywidden, i.e. child of the fair, fairy or piskeys. The following myth was…

[abislwise]

That quote not to point. More to point would be the rulings in Sefer Chassidim and Piskei Teshuvot on saying Kaddish for goyim, which is not done with the exceptions of a ger who is saying it for their parents and a goy who rescued Jews in dire times.

There are plenty of times when it is appropriate to bring up Gazan complaints. Tisha B'Av is not one of them, in the same way that it is inappropriate to bring up other groups who suffered during the Shoah on Yom Ha'Shoah. It is a uniquely Jewish day of mourning to reflect our uniquely Jewish losses, and injecting Gazans into it is incredibly disrespectful.

If you're looking for a kinah that also talks about Gaza, I found this one to be rather moving:

I am so thrilled and grateful to @enclavepublishing that I got to finish this trilogy after years of wistful dreaming — not to mention impassioned pleas from readers longing to know what would happen to Ivy and Martin next!

Thanks to all of you who’ve read and loved the series and recommended it to other fantasy readers as well!

If you HAVEN’T read the books yet, this is a great deal and it’s not going to last forever, so please check it out here!

[spale-vosver]

Not to chime in on a conversation that isn't mine but this opinion is not binding even among Orthodox Jews; Menachem Elon writes that

[such a view] "inherently violates the precept of Hilkheta Ke-Vatra'ei, that is, the law is according to the later scholars. This rule dates from the Geonic period. It laid down that until the time of Rabbis Abbaye and Rava (4th century) the Halakha was to be decided according to the views of the earlier scholars, but from that time onward, the halakhic opinions of post-talmudic scholars would prevail over the contrary opinions of a previous generation. See Piskei Ha'Rosh, Bava Metzia 3:10, 4:21, Shabbat 23:1

I’m sure I’m going to get a lot of flak for this unpopular opinion on this website, but I don’t believe that someone who believes that Jewish Law isn’t binding gets a seat at the table of deciding or interpreting what Jewish Law does or doesn’t say. I don’t mean to say, G-d forbid, that you shouldn’t try to relate and connect to Torah in your daily life, but please leave interpreting practicalities to people who actually will follow them, and don’t try to bend Halacha to relate to or justify your refusal to follow it.

Guild' Arcana emailed a photo: "Hi! Greetings from South of Brazil!

My name (artistic name) is Morghán and I am the lead vocalist of a fantasy folk music band from Pelotas, Rio Grande do Sul, Brazil, and I am, maybe, an Irish by heart (never been there  -  in this life  - , but simply love Ireland) and all the things about Celtic world. ❤️

I love your Podcast! When I am listening to, it is like I transport myself for a moment to the Celtic world. Thank you for that! 🙏💖

Well, what am I doing while listening to the Celtic Podcast? College homework! 😁  I am a Digital Design student, and I am doing hand drawing homework.

Thank you again for this wonderful Podcast!

Lots of blessings!"

Jeremiah Dønier emailed from Langly, WA: "Hello Marc,

I tried signing up for your mailing list but got an error message saying the mailing list is not active.

My family and I live on the windswept isle of Whidbey upon the Salish Sea. I stumbled across your app in May after canceling my iTunes subscription and we are loving the Irish & Celtic Music Podcast. A few weeks ago, we enjoyed a couple of hours of the music as we pickled some pints of cucumbers (see attached photo).

My love of Celtic music goes back to my family's roots. My dad's kin are mostly from the Swiss Alps and Scandinavia, but my mom's family came from Scotland and Ireland to settle in the Pacific Northwest in the late 1800s. So, I grew up listening to Celtic folk tunes played by my parents, grandparents, aunts, and uncles.

Then I began listening to a range of Celtic music as a teenager in the mid - 1990s. Of course, I enjoyed the explosion of modern Celtic music during this time with crossovers into New Age and Rock. Many purists deride this as faux Celtic but it didn't matter to me. I like the flitting of flutes, braggadocio of bagpipes, and harmony of harps. One of my favorite memories from back then, was going to an oversold a Colcannon show in Ellensburg, Washington and I was seated on the stage!

Since then, I accumulated an eclectic collection of Celtic tunes. During the pandemic I began looking through my older CDs and found "Celtic Legacy A Global Celtic Journey" by the Narada. It features are a number of groups from Ireland, Breton, Wales, and Scotland and the American Celtic diaspora. Then I noticed there a group stands out as bit different and it has become one of my favorites: Milladoiro.

They come from northwest Spain which I learned is a region rich but often overlooked in Celtic history. Indeed, research shows many cultural and genetic links between Ireland, Galicia, and the Basques.

Anyway, I wanted to say hello, share a bit about me and my love of Celtic music. Throughout the week the podcast is my way to relax. With over 500 episodes it is going to take me awhile to get through them all. I love how you feature so many different types of Celtic music with differrent themes.

So, all this leads me to I wonder if you've ever done a show on global Celtic music? Perhaps you could feature some of those groups like Milladoiro that add a bit a different flavor to the Celtic tunes we love.

Go raibh míle maith agat! (May you have a thousand good things!)"
