no sign that you're really growing up like your dad finally deciding that you're old enough for a full strength hot toddy when you're sick

(btw if you are sick and do not know what a hot toddy is get onto it. get a mug, put in some honey, some lime or lemon cordial/juice, and some whiskey, then fill to the top of the mug with boiling water. i usually do three tbsp honey, two tbsp lime cordial, 1.5 tbsp whiskey, but you can just do it to personal taste. cures a sore throat and heady cough like nothing else.)

'Wool waulking is a traditional Scottish process of finishing and strengthening newly woven woolen fabrics. It is a significant social and cultural activity, often carried out by women in the Highlands of Scotland. The Gaelic songs that are sung during waulking have a distinctive rhythmic pattern that aids in synchronising the work.'

Very late to this trend but I couldn't help but draw @/iikz_02 on Twitter's Scottish Miku! (if that was not the original designer please let me know I tried to find the earliest date)

I'm not the deepest into my Scottish heritage, but I tried my best to invoke my grandmother's pride whenever she talked about it. Hope I did her proud..... by drawing Hatsune Miku lmao

I don't like this for so many reasons. Anglophone (usually USAmerican) writers often take foreign words and misrepresent them in their books, misinforming a whole new wave of readers in the process. They regularly do this with Greek as well. These languages haven't resisted assimilation and suppression so they can be used as USAmerican accessories in 2023.

Y’know what? If I’m going to be writing Scottish family members and such for Righteous Fury, I should have someone Scot-pick it. (This is a play on @pfhwrittes’ Brit-picking he helps me out with.)

I know I want to include Scots, because it’s a language that deserves more exposure, and it makes sense for the MacTavishes to speak it, I think. (We canonically know Soap slips terms into conversation, so he’s not unfamiliar.)

I’m drawing a blank on who might be able and willing to help me with this. I’m more than happy to negotiate a price, because expertise deserves compensation.

I don’t know that knowledge about the CoD characters is necessary. Probably gives an advantage though.

Help an author out, friends?

I want this to be done right, not by the seat of my pants.

One of the thing I love in Drew Mcintyre is how he teaches us that sometimes taking time to work on yourself is the best you can!

He was fired around 2014, makes great journey in TNA AND INDEPENDENT PROMOTIONS, coming back around 2017, did an amazing run in nxt and inside the main roster, is proven to be an amazing storyteller.
