not to be that irish person but im going to be that irish person- it really bugs me when people write irish but like obviously did not consult an irish speaker, you know? i mean, it’s not like it’s fucking klingon! it’s not a specialist fantasy language! there are people alive and well here speaking it that you can ask any time.

have i complained about this before? yes. will i complain about it some more? yes, every time i have to see something written without a fada and peppered about like decoration

#this just angers me so much because the language needs speakers #and it needs people to be interested #but so many non-irish people just use it as like #folklore fun #fantasy language banter #which would be fine tbh if they at least used it SOMEWHAT RIGHT??#and there’s the whole colonised aspect of the language to mitigate as well #and of course im not the be all and end all opinion on this #lots of irish people will have their own opinion #but as a gaeilgoir it really wounds me #and it also annoys me because without an Irish speaker to consult it’s just FUCKING THERE #THERE’S NO CONSIDERATION TO THE WAY IT’S SPOKEN #the tone of voice #thé contenance #all of this is so relevant and it’s what makes it so special #and it’s always obvious and hurtful to see when people just didn’t think of it #rant over #probably #delete later #but i needed to just #rant #let’s just say non-irish are rarely #if ever #going to get the old #ar mhuin na muice #stamp #boorish rambles #gaeilge #also this is not just about Americans before anyone frets #i got my critical eye aimes MANY places

Things Nobody Tells You About Being a Young Gorgon (But Should)

Because apparently "hey, by the way, your hair will literally try to bite your crush" isn't covered in the standard handbook.

1. Your snake hair has opinions.

And not polite ones. They will hiss at people you like. They will growl at teachers. One will almost definitely try to eat your math homework. ("It was alive when I found it," said one particularly defensive snake.)

2. You WILL accidentally petrify things.

Plants. Pets. Your favorite pencil. Your entire reflection in a poorly placed mirror. It’s fine. You learn to keep a chisel in your backpack.

3. Sunglasses are not a fashion choice.

They are a survival tactic. (Also: prescription anti-murder glasses? Expensive. You better WORK that thrift store aesthetic, queen.)

4. People will act like you’re the scary one.

But deep down, you know: You are the ultimate "do not mess with me" warning sign. And honestly? That’s kind of iconic.

5. You WILL have at least one snake who is a traitor.

The one that loves strangers. The one that boops potential enemies instead of hissing. The one who wants cuddles when you’re trying to be intimidating. (Her name is usually something like Daisy. She is precious. Protect her.)

6. Learning to flirt is... complicated.

Eye contact is risky. So is smiling. Also, snakes tend to get extremely excited and start wiggling when they sense affection. Nothing like confessing your feelings while your hair has a full-blown rave.

7. Bad hair days can literally become national emergencies.

Humidity + anger = Medusa-core times a thousand. Someone will end up accidentally stone-frozen. It’s a Thursday.

8. You will hear "don't look at me!" jokes at least 600 times.

Mostly from people you were actively not looking at. They wish you cared that much. You don’t.

9. Snakes get moody during molting season.

There will be fights. There will be existential crises. There will be five different heads arguing about who deserves the biggest sunbeam to nap in.

10. You are not a monster for surviving how you were made.

Not for growing fangs. Not for carrying a gaze that can end kings. Not for demanding a world that fears you also respect you.

You are myth and marvel and miracle, wrapped up in scales and stubbornness.
