@ people who were not born in Ireland and particularly Americans
- It is not Pattyâs Day, it is Paddyâs Day. Patty is short for Patricia, Paddy is short for PĂĄdraig which has been anglicised to Patrick.
- It is not Gaelic, it is Irish. In Irish, the language is called Gaelige but thatâs pronounced Gwayl-geh.
- Literally no one in Ireland has ever eaten corned beef and cabbage
- We have also never said top of the morning
- If you pinch an Irish person for not wearing green on Paddyâs Day theyâre likely to slap you.
- Why do you dye your drinks green?
- It is not âNorth Irelandâ it is âNorthern Irelandâ. It is not âSouth Irelandâ it is âThe Republic of Irelandâ or just âIrelandâ.
- No, I do not know the Dohertys of Mayo.
- Please, if you must, do things for the craic and not the crack. Cocaine is not a great habit lads.
- Drinks like the âIrish car bombâ and the âblack & tanâ are incredibly offensive (you wouldnât drink a â9/11â)
However
- Wearing green is grand
- Having a few drinks is also grand, they donât even need to be Irish (I drink a Swedish cider most of the time)
- Aye sure queue up some Irish music on youtube itâs great.
- If you want one Irish word to use throughout the day a good one is SlĂĄinte (pronounced slawn-sha) - itâs the equivalent of saying âcheersâ before you drink!

9 Albums That Made Me â¨
tagged by @seiya-starsniper @virgo-dream & @tj-dragonblade
first of all, please excuse the terrible image quality (and lines) i made this in MS paint and it took WAY TOO LONG!
anyway, i agonized over this one because, like Seiya, i define my life more in songs than albums. sure i bought CDs as a kid, but it was always only to pick through the tracks i liked and burn a mixtape. but each of these albums i like almost if not completely cover-to-cover, and they each remind me of a moment or turning point in my life.
(not tagging anyone because this trend seems to have died and i havent a clue who did this already lol)

dear friends, i have set up a ko-fi account!
i have never had a ko-fi before, but i have also never been in this sort of financial pickle before. i'm now in a tough spot where every little bit, in any amount, will help and would be immeasurably appreciated.
my wife and i (and our little senior rescue dog) are finally set to be able to leave our very red state by mid-april and move to what seems to be a much friendlier city in which to be queer and generally thrive! this is amazing and much needed for us. however, moving states is so expensive and we unfortunately have virtually no savings and limited help from our families & employers.
anything i receive will be going toward things like apartment application fees/deposit/rent, moving & travel costs, costs associated with transferring my mental health counseling licensure for work in our new state, and groceries/essentials.
if you have already helped me out recently, please know that it meant the world to me! i am also figuring out a general pricing structure so i can offer art commissions, so stay tuned for that coming soon! and if we have already discussed a commission i'll be working on for you, i will be making that happen ASAP. <3
please consider donating to my ko-fi here, if you would like to and are able!
a big thanks and much love to everyone,
nick

Inappropriate Uses of the Dewey Decimal System and Coworkers by Hob Gadling, no PhD (93,486 words) by chaosheadspace
Rating: Explicit
No archive warnings apply
Relationships: Dream of the Endless/Hob Gadling
My library AU is finally complete! Tags under the cut.
Summary:
Library assistant Hob Gadling has been working at a university library for a few years now. He's happy, or, to be precise, he has no reason to be unhappy.
But then Dream Olympiou, freshly hired subject librarian, stirs up the sleepy reading rooms and Hob's life with a personality that leaves much to be desired and a body that's got fine written all over it.
Hob is in for an adventure long overdue, including misunderstandings, shushed feelings, and checked out brains (and arses).
Tags:

âSure, Iâll come.â They cast their eyes about before landing them on Hob once more.Â
âCanât say the same for everyone else, clubbing isnât really their thing. But Iâll pass the invite along.â
Hob smiles, nodding once. âExcellent. Just text me where you are and weâll meet you; I invited some of the crew along as well.â
Desire clicks their tongue. âOh thatâs right. Youâll be getting out of here hours after weâre through.â
Hob lifts his shoulders helplessly.Â
Desire rolls their eyes dramatically, flinging the towel somewhere in the dark.Â
âYou owe me a shot.â
Hob grins. âDeal.â

lover, be good to me (6579 words) by CinnamonCake
Chapters: 1/?
Fandom: The Sandman (TV 2022)
Rating: Explicit
Warnings: No Archive Warnings Apply
Relationships: Dream of the Endless | Morpheus/Hob Gadling
Characters: Dream of the Endless | Morpheus, Hob Gadling, Matthew the Raven, Lucien | Lucienne (The Sandman)
Additional Tags: Alpha/Beta/Omega Dynamics, Past Rape/Non-con, Implied/Referenced Abortion, Hurt/Comfort, but focusing on the comfort part, dream learns to heal and grow into himself, Omega Dream, Alpha Hob Gadling, hob wants nothing but to love and take care of his hisband, Alternate Universe - Arranged Marriage, hob would die for his husband
Summary:
âWhat Iâm saying isâ I understand.â
He catches Dreamâs hand in his. His touch is careful, soft like a summer breeze. It makes Dreamâs breath catch somewhere under his breastbone.
âI know how it is to live against everyoneâs expectations. How to live in spite of them.â
Dream stares at their intertwined fingers, feels Hobâs pulse in his fingertips. Itâs a beautiful, quiet thing; itâs the first time heâs felt quiet in ages.
(Or: Dream de Endless was suppose to be his familyâs most prized jewel, but when he is taken, he loses the last thing the world considered valuable about him. Broken down to his core, he does not expect anyone to want him again. Until Robert Gadling walks into his life.)
