It feels like magic when I come across something in Cymraeg that I didn’t understand and now I do. A mystery unlocked. I’m still struggling to listen as fast as people speak, but as an American dysgwr, I think I’ve learned a good bit. There’s an ocean of what I haven’t, but mae pob gair yn drysor.

An American in Wales embarrassing us all on Threads.
Welsh has *more* vowels than English. And who goes to another country and gets mad that their native language doesn’t follow English rules? As if English makes sense. I would expect an author to have more appreciation for language.

The Light in the Hall is back for a 2nd season on AMC here on the US. Starring incredible Welsh talent like @sianreesewilliams.bsky.social
Can we have more Welsh dramas over here? Yn y Gymraeg plîs? It helps me learn the language. Not many to practice with here, and hearing it spoken matters.

As an American, I am disconnected from the culture and lands of my ancestors. This disconnection can be hard to navigate. We can’t force ourselves back into a culture that moved forward without us, and the land we occupy isn’t truly ours. Its challenging.

The witch walks and plucks wild omens, picks plants for the curing of tomorrow. Jack by the hedge, wood sorrel, the fertile hope of navelwort. The witch walks and harvests auguries, the gossip of trees. Her movement across the land is a magical act. – #EmilyCbanting, 1982 #WitchSky

The corruption is in full daylight here. Who can hold him accountable? Why do people still think he’s for us as Americans? He’s clearly only into enriching himself. youtube.com/shorts/K8mp3...
Is Trump scheming for us to pay him $230 MILLION??

I know I have complained before about my frustration learning Welsh. The problem is not with the language, which continues to captivate me, but with my own brain which won’t soak it in fast enough. I want to swim in this language.

What if we started an army of perimenopausal women to protect our trans siblings? We are filled with rage and can function solely on black coffee and the tears of our enemies. We’re don’t even need violence. We can take folks down by hurting their feelings. Let’s go.

I mean, this is just flat out corruption. It’s blatantly obvious. He’s stealing our tax dollars.
President Trump is demanding that the Justice Department pay him about $230 million in compensation for the federal investigations into him.
Whether he gets paid will ultimately be up to DOJ's second-in-command, who was recently his personal lawyer.

Today I will remember with the people of Wales, all those lost in the tragedy at Aberfan.
The location of the coal tip was known to be dangerous and nothing was done protect those would become its victims.
144 people were killed. Over 100 of them children.
Cofiwch Aberfan. Remember Aberfan.

Sometimes my eyes trick me when I’m reading. I just read “bygone quarrels” as “bygone squirrels” and thought that was an interesting thing for a goddess to take note of. 🤦🏻♀️

What I’m hearing is that Republicans want so badly to give billionaires tax breaks by taking away healthcare that they’re willing to also risk air safety to do it.
That’s how much they want to give billionaires our money.

That’s not what he said. He said the money for Essential Air Service routes will run out but that has absolutely nothing to do with ATC.
What will happen is after that first paycheck is missed, and this applies to ALL federal workers, the mental toll of financial uncertainty becomes a huge problem.

Not a big Stacey fan, tbh, but I dislike TJ even more and cannot care less who’s lying. We won’t know the truth until we do. His lawsuit doesn’t mean he’s telling the truth. Her denials are weird. Who knows? Next storyline please. #RHOP

Mali Aelwen has come home. Our tiny baby Pembrokeshire Welsh Corgi. She’s stolen our hearts already. We plan to train her in Cymraeg a Saeneg (Welsh and English). She will be so loved.

We do not need to further take from cultures not our own. Cultures with closed practices who do not welcome intrusion. We have our own stories. Our own spiritual and earth based wisdom. If only we will be willing to see and learn. And when we do, we see how it connects us all. /|\

I listened to her, and it’s so hard to respond when it’s just lies. Republicans cut the health benefits of millions of Americans, which will make all our premiums higher, in order to fund tax breaks for billionaires who don’t need it.
None of these benefits profit the undocumented. That’s a lie.

I have joined the Angelesy Druid Order and feel like I’ve been swimming the last month in Welsh folklore, teaching, and wisdom. I’m really enjoying the course and plan to go back to Cymru for my initiation. I can’t wait!

I thought seizing the means of production was communist. Isn’t that what taking 10% of a company is?
Why do conservatives see communism in providing for hungry children but don’t see it in talking private business? Are they stupid or just hypocritical?

Unfortunately, Bluesky is unavailable in Mississippi right now, due to a new state law that requires age verification for all users.
While intended for child safety, we think this law poses broader challenges & creates significant barriers that limit free speech & harm smaller platforms like ours.

I dreamed last night that I met a Welsh dog and needed to speak Welsh to it. Surprisingly, dream me was able to think of all the words she needed. A thing real me struggles to do.
