#talk irish to me

[oifaaa]

As someone who went to university over in England I know not all English people are dicks with that said I will never forget that while I was in uni I had 3 separate English people try to tell me that the Irish famine wasn't actually "that bad"

Imagine you work at a casino, it’s not a typical one, you can only play poker and the rules have become so mangled it’s basically an entirely new game but people visit regardless. One day, while you’re still working your shift, a man comes in wearing a suit, it’s purple on the outside and decorated with images of galaxies on the inside, one his left a small sheep with black wool dyed to look like it has sprinkles and on his right is a person who declares themself Anonymous Jolteon (you don’t know what a Jolteon is, it must be some sort of forgotten deity based on how they're dressed) the crowd of what must’ve been over one thousand people declare them a prophet.

You start playing and… he knows everything. The prophet whispers in his ear and everything happens just as they say. The crowd calls it dark magic as a joke but you're inclined to believe it. Eventually the prophet stops whispering to him after another pack of tarot cards are bought (I told you this casino was odd) and goes to stand in the crowd. You breathe a sigh of relief, the less that prophet speaks the better, oh how you would be punished for your foolishness. The game continues and He. Keeps. Flushing. Every single hand he plays is a flush of spades and the chips keep rising. 100,000 is cleared with ease. 200,000 is where it would've been over but he demands to keep going. 300,000. You keep trying to set him challenges that should've at least posed some difficulty but he clears them with no issue. 400,000. 600,000. e16. You stare in horror at the man as he surpasses e29 and he barely celebrates it. The prophet speaks again to give one small piece of advice and goes silent again. The man reaches e38 and still demands to go further. He starts chanting, something about turning left cards into right cards, but you aren't listening, you're staring, at the crowd, at the man, at the prophet. You begin to wonder if you've been trapped in some sort of purgatory, being punished for whatever crimes you may have committed in life. The prophet tells him to turn paper into glass, just to see how high they could reach. Again, he starts converting left cards into right cards. Converting left cards into right cards. Converting left cards into right cards. Converting left cards into right cards. Converting left cards into right cards until his entire deck is glass. A tarot card gives him a polychrome card and the prophet exclaims that not even they could do that and that the man has received all the help from them they could give. The crowd jokes that the gods would tremble before him. You would believe it. e49. He didn't even play the polychrome yet. If a glass breaks he simply makes a new one without a care in the world. He plays a full polychrome glass deck and... e58. More than the amount of atoms on earth. He gets offered a card and the prophet speaks up one last time to announce that, should he take it, the man has a definite chance of losing at some point. That was the greatest new you ever heard in your life. The man takes it and the next hand is e73. Then e74. Then e87 and the crowd cheers, that is more than the atoms in the observable universe.

He keeps going.

e88. e89. The man understands that the end is in sight and you feel like you can see a light at the end if the tunnel. e95. You're so close. You set it to e98 and the man smiles knowingly at you and just for a second he feels a little more human. He accepts that his next hand is his last and plays his cards. e96. You're free. You laugh. In spite of everything you laugh. With tears in your eyes you laugh! The crowd, the prophet, the man and the sheep all leave.

You vow to never return.

[sweetnnaivete]

some music discourse is SO chronically online istg. so many people saying that just because you can't relate to the original meaning of the song you can't like or relate to it in any capacity like THATS CRAZY!!!!! good music has always been up for some sort of interpretation. you may not be able to relate to it the same way as it was intentioned, but it's still okay to appreciate it and listen to it??? it's ridiculous to be like “this song isn't for you” music is for everyone. music is a way to express emotions and educate people!!!!!! let that sink in!!!!

hi i just saw your chilchuck art and thought 'he looks irish' and then clicked on your profile and saw ireland in your bio. thats awesome 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪

HELP ME BAHAVWHWH Its really funny considering its heavily referenced from a photo of me 😭😭 i think my proud and gorgeous nation bled through on this one

[aiteanngaelach]

god forgive me for sharing a tedx talk but i came across this video of dónall ó héalaí (yer man from the film arracht) talking about the beauty and importance of irish and the 'bás na háilleachta' — the death of beauty that would arise were irish not to survive as a spoken communal language (which experts apparently project, given the lack of economic reasons to speak Irish, to happen in two generations). Watch it if you have an interest in the irish language, dónall ó héalaí is a good speaker (no surprise given he's an actor)

WHO GETS TO CHOOSE WHO DIES AN HONORABLE DEATH? war hadn't always been on his mind and he wasn't especially prepared to land a position on a task force as covert as 141. however, with his skills, it would be fatal not to have him on the team.

if i had a podcast successful enough to get famous actors on as guests it'd be a rewatch podcast of all my favourite shows except unlike all the current rewatch podcasts that exist where they waste time heaping unnecessary praise on a random guest actor or telling some never-ending, irrelevant behind the scenes story and skipping vital parts of the episode we'd be going through that episode Minute By Minute. tell me what the script said and did it change as you were acting out the scene, what directions were you given, what do you make of the song choice in the scene and would you have picked a different one, tell me about how this parallels this earlier scene from another episode, what does it mean for the overall character arc if you cannot discuss this show with the level of depth of a dedicated fan writing in the tags of a gifset of their favourite blorbo on tumblr dot com then get the fuck out of my recording studio

In my dungeon meshi modern au Chilchuck is from Perth

[gaybearwedding]

one thing about me is i WILL treat silly little improvised musicals like full scripted media. i’ve written cornhole in one fic. i know all the mallapalooza kids’ last names. i have designs for many off book/pibe characters that look nothing like zach and jess. off book episode 66 we object to fear live from the curious comedy theater in portland is no longer a podcast episode to me it is the jumping off point for an entire world that i created and spent the better part of a year being absolutely fucking insane about

YALL I HAVE A QUESTION

Um. What sort of accents do you guys think each Link has???

I was just looking through a draft and I was reading Twillight's dialogue and then somehow the voice that I read him in was some sort of cross between some sort of vague southern (I not american I have no idea what sort of accents you lot have over there) crossed with Australian???? Of all things???? HELP?????

And now I'm thinking even more about the different accents that everyone has.

Like, I absolutely adore fics that mention that Warriors has an accent because of him either being upper-class or lower-class and how the others in the Chain react to it or still treat him normally or wkfblshcoejclsjfksjgkfh

What about Time who totally adopts his own accent from Malon and Talon. As someone who has picked up on and has started speaking with a slightly thicker countryside accent (irish) I know he absolutely would. He just would!!! And would he even have remnants of how the kokiri and the deku tree talk??? WHAT WOULD THE KOKIRI ACCENT BE LIKE??????

And because I am biased, I'm imagining Wind with a filipino accent. Come on, he's a tropical island boy, he would have our accent!! I remember reading a fic where everyone from Wind's era was speaking tagalog and I was getting emotional because omg me too!

Wild would have some sort of amalgamation of accents from all the different regions. I have no idea how it would be, but he picks up on the Rito, the Gerudo, the Gorons- hell, maybe even accents from the Sheikah or from Hateno Village!!! He's a codeswitching natural, he teleports all across Hyrule almost daily!!!

oh youtube shorts irish woodworking guy we're really in it now

[slutburn]

the only thing keeping me from constantly making explicit barry posts is the fact that he could potentially see them and that’s very weird

[fullsaw]

Clay Calloway!! 😊 (I will judge closely 🎸

Clay pookie....

First Impression: Didn't care for him while watching the movie but started crying randomly while leaving the cinema thinking about him so take that as you will.

Impression Now: Need him in the 3rd movie and need to see him wearing a decked-out denim jacket.

Favourite Moment: Either him being on board with jumping out of the apartments window or the scene with Ruby in the tunnel before he goes on stage.

Story Idea: no idea but id like to see him become more of a mentor to Ash

Unpopular Opinion: I really dislike Ash x Clay; it feels very "they're together on screen so they must be romantic interests" when their relationship is far more complex

Favourite Relationship: I acc like his attitude with Buster a lot, first seeing him as this little pesky guy and eventually "this little pesky guy acc has some good points"

Favourite Headcanon: love love LOVE the idea of him being in an in-universe U2 clone band

Holy trinity of Mascot Legendaries whose designs are not really my taste but the game did such a damn good job at endearing them to me by giving them adorable/ goofy and charming personalities that I would die for them.
