:|... not to overshare but it's... sad. knowing your grandmother wasn't white, she came from canada directly, she was running from persecution and hid everything just like her māori partner did. like... damn. i wish i could say where you came from. i wish i could find your heritage, the way i'm looking for my whakapapa. my entire "role" in the family is to find out where people are from. i just wish i knew anyone that i could ask about native history or tribal records. it's sad lol

#i'm māori #i'm welsh #i'm gaelic #and i'm... i don't know. not white american from canada. that's the most i feel comfortable claiming for various reasons.#i just want to find out what she had to run from. her family. it's so close to me.#and it's like. she married my grandfather who was hiding from aotearoa during the musket wars #her family put down they were white on the american census to not be killed #i just want to know who she was and who her family was outside of 'idk you're native but don't look into it lol'#i don't want to claim this part of me without knowing more because my grandmother was this. but god.#i know i'm native from canada basically but i don't wanna step on any toes. i just want to be proud of her and what she went through.#i guess you hid well enough grandma. your entire family did!#i'm glad you survived. i'd do it too. i don't blame you at all. i just wish i knew more about you lol

Thoughts after watching a lot of American media with blackboards in classrooms...

#not art #i'm welsh/british and my teachers mostly used whiteboards #i lived through the introduction to smartboards and their beautiful gank

Hi, with the arthurian legenda being entirely christian, aren't there welsh legends believed to be where the arthurian legends were drived from? Sorry if i misunderstood your point but tmk the christian elements were added later. Not trying to start anything tbc i am honestly curious

the welsh material is also christian, hope this helps 💚

#bede complained that the welsh didn't convert the english bc they were christian first like #they had been christian for so long by the time the arthurian stuff is written #let alone the manuscripts!!! they're fucking fourteenth century!!#i'm not tagging this and if people clown on my post they're getting blocked #anonymous #answered

Imagine getting a Welsh actor to play a Welsh character but not letting him use his Welsh accent for said character Welsh erasure is real guys and Howl deserves his Welsh accent

#I'm joking #Not about how Howl should of had a Welsh accent #He definitely should #They took all the other Welsh stuff from the movie #At least leave the man his accent #howl’s moving castle #howls #studio ghibli #Poor Welsh people

Everytime The Witcher appropriates the welsh language but the has the GALL to mispronounce it, the power of my rage grows

do you know how seldom Welsh gets a fucking look in?! and the you have the gall to pronounce it like its fucking English

#the witcher #welsh #like i want to be excited because YAY WELSH #but then they do that #HE SAID SHAERRAWEDD 'Cher-Wed' i'm going to scream #its not even proper Welsh but if you're going to base your conlang that hard of an existing language i beg of you learn the rules #say it Shere-a-with #i'm going to start showing witcher colang to my nain to cause her psychic damage #i joke but tbh i think she would like that someone is taking the language she had stripped from her as a kid and is reviving it in a new wa #Anya at least says the first part right #to the point i suspect she studied and did her best but the directors fought her on the dd

staged but i've never watched it and i'm drunk

hello mascot good omens mascot here okay so THE STAGED LIVESTREAAM IS ON SATURDAY BTW. That is a thing that is happening. So. You know. If you're above 18 because @thescholarlystrumpet (and I ig) are responaible adults come and like. Join us. Watch me react to staged and probably die. i'Ll probably share details when I'm not drunk and when it's not nearing midnight.

But until then I'm drinking battery acid (this red wine cost like the equivalent of 2.5 USD) and I am here to summarise staged.

It's about David Tennant and Michael Sheen, who, until barely a month ago, I had no idea existed (we don't talk about Michael sneakily being in Twilight and Passengers I'm actually pretending the Twilight thing didn't happen pklease respect my denial)

It started over Zoom and it's about them rehearsing a play during COVID but like it's scripted so it's a show about rehearsing a play and it stars the actors as themselves very meta very fourth wall

David has hair extensions and Michael does not

David keeps switching locations because he has to quote Michael "twenty children" and they're everywhere. Because of this hellsite that's obsessed with David to an unhealthy level I know that this is not true, he has five children and I can probably give you details and how is this my life

Michael stays in the kitcehn and some watchers think this is a poetic choice it's not David just has to shift because humans are everywhere in his house

Georgia who is David's wife and Anna who is Michael's wife which I also know because of this hellsite both also star in it

They're all neighbours now by the way which this really creepy hellsite was DETERMINED that I know about okay thank you tumblr I'm uh that's knowledge for sure I'm sure they're having fun

Judi Dench is involved and I'm not sure who she is but she's a Dame and she's a very good actress and she's kinda intimoidating and also for some weird reason I associate her with that Cats nightmare fuel even though I didn't watch it but yeah she probably had nothing to do with it

There are three seasons and FOR SOME REAOSN EVERYONE IS CRYING AT THE END. WHY ARE YOU ALL ALWAYS CRYING WHY HAVE YOU DRAGGED ME INTO THE CRYING TOO I'M STILL CRYING OVER GOOD OMENS WHAT IS THIS NOW.

it's uh it's a comedy but I've realised now that in Britain comedy = will make you sob harder than a tragedy but will be more subtle and sneaky about it

god this wine tastes like shit i really need to make money so i can afford better alcohol. any suggestions, maggots? wait this is a summary not a life update

uhhhh the silhouette of one of david's kids appears in one of the episodes

that's all i've got i'm sorry time to go make more bad decisions I love you all byebyeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee stay rotten

#good omens mascot #weirdly specific but ok #asmi #good omens fandom #maggots #staged #bbc staged #michael sheen #david tennant #georgia tennant #anna lundberg #welsh seduction machine #david and michael #why are these the tags tumblr is suggesting to me #fuck it i'm too drunk for this #staged livestream

Winnix moments that make me feral part 1/?

This scene kills me every time because Dick just introduced Harry to Nix. "Lieutenant Lewis Nixon? Lieutenant Harry Welsh." Dick already knows Harry and yet, and yet Nix immediately upon meeting him needs him to know that he knows Dick, better than you, thank you very much, and he can tell you all about him. And then, Dick doesn't shrug it off like, "we know each other already, Lew," oh no, he has to point out that he knows all about Nixon as well, in front of his new friend. And look at Lew's face!! He's almost abashed that Dick is teasing him. Boys, stop, I can't.

Don't even get me started on the beginning of this scene with Harry asking, "Am I interrupting something?" when they're standing six clear feet apart.

#winnix #band of brothers #i am 23 years late to this fandom but i'm not sorry #bob #lewis nixon #dick winters #major winters #captain nixon #damian lewis #ron livingston #harry welsh #hbo war trilogy #wwii #my gifs #my edit #winnix moments

unit and torchwood (and the bannerman road gang) both absolutely kept tabs on donna but since unit's official policy re: the remaining member of torchwood three is 'do not engage under any circumstances this woman will kick your arse and we literally cannot afford that' gwen has no idea what's happened until she goes on her biannual is donna still alive trip to find donna and fourteen arguing about which dresser to buy in ikea and is like hey what the fuck

#doctor who #doctor who spoilers #i'll tag em until the next special ig #also unrelated i'm sure but jack harkness seen sprinting towards london and martha jones seen breaking out the extra strength ibuprofen #gwen cooper #<3 #it's incredibly important to me that the entirety of unit is terrified of one (1) welsh mum #she's technically an unemployed vigilante but are YOU going to tell her that???? no. kate just quietly sends her paychecks herself
