Lá Fhéile Pádraig Shona Duit!

Happy St Patrick's Day to all my lovely Tumblr followers! ☘️

Everyone is Irish today! I got to go to our local parade where I live (Having missed it last year due to COVID) and in traditional Irish fashion it pissed down with rain! And my Gospel Choir sang in the rain outside the music school but it was good fun! The parade of trucks and children!

And because we love the man that is Taron Egerton and I haven't done one in a long time, have some spam!

He is rocking green so it works!

And done! (For a man with green eyes, he doesnt wear a lot of green lol)

Have a great Friday!

Love Suze xx

st patrick’s day easily the funniest american holiday. nothing makes me more patriotic than watching everyone collectively pretend to be from somewhere else as an excuse to get trashed in the street and wear lots of green. ideal

Building on the favourite animal ask, another Very Important Question: favourite PREHISTORIC animal? And why? (I've always loved gorgonopsids and pterosaurs like anurognathus, but a new favourite is aquilolamma the eagle shark. They're just very cute).

I feel like my top favorites are pretty pedestrian, but I like prehistoric deer a lot!

Megaloceros giganteus aka Irish elk

Sinomegaceros ordosianus & Sinomegaceros yabei

Eucladoceros dicranios

Cervalces scotti

What Freud said about the Irish is: We're the only people who are impervious to psychoanalysis.

any understanding of irish history of the last 500 yrs has to explicitly contend with ireland functionally having a caste system wherein your specific religious denomination roughly determined your class status ie. relationship to land ownership and the means of production. the common presentation of ireland being simply a matter of 'religious conflict' obfuscates that if you lived in the island of éire your position in society was nearly entirely determined by the religious sect you were born into, with some degree of economic movement (should you convert to a different sect but even then you would still be distrusted) and variability of the precise nature of one's economic status, ex. you could have some degree of land and wealth as a catholic but it was constantly being cut apart and taxed heavily, you couldn't attend school, you were often terrorized by both official and unofficial roving gangs of protestant soldiers and settlers, etc. but it often wasn't enough to simply be a protestant, you had to be anglican - a follower of the church of england - and if you were presbyterian (like most scots-irish) or from another protestant denomination your position was somewhere in between anglicans and catholics, and the rights of nonconformists (the term used for non-anglican protestants) often fluctuated depending on the material demands of the anglican ruling class, and whether it economically benefited them to gain favour with nonconformists or not. but the primary conflict was the mass extraction of capital from the catholic majority, to line the pockets of the anglican land (and later factory) owners and most importantly the coffers of the british empire. this relationship between religion and class is fundamental to having any degree of understanding of irish history

Giving Ronan Celtic tattoo designs is my agenda, perogative, scheme, and some may even say my destiny

don't ask a woman her age, a man his salary or the irish government what the 1963 commission report on their very own final solution for the "itinerant problem" is or how many jews / roma live in ireland

british tv be like: got the perfect show for you, it's a 20 year old absurdist comedy about an alcoholic who runs a book shop and clearly has a thing for his assistant. he treats him terribly and is the most filthy disgusting creature you've ever laid your eyes on. yes, you will want to fuck him. 6 episodes a season, 3 seasons, take it or leave it. *spits*

Random guy trying to flirt with Lena in a bar: Did it hurt? Lena: Did what hurt? Random guy: When you fell from heaven? Lena, totally earnest: No, my wife caught me. Random guy: Uhhh... Supergirl: This guy bothering you babe? Lena: Oh gotta go, my ride's here. [Lena hops up into Supergirl's arms and they fly away, leaving a very befuddled man behind wondering exactly what was in that last drink]
