If you asked me to do something for you recently and I said no, I'm sorry but I had to. I try to help as many people possible but all the unpaid labour has become overwhelming recently and I'm exhausted and need to pay the bills. The burnout is real 🥲

I just think if Chinese people maybe tried sounding less Chinese, then it would encourage more people to learn the language. #n ílsécgl #aineolas

You see, certain people view #Gaeilge as traditional, a bastion of old fashioned values. They want to use it as a tool for their conservative wet dreams. They are often not even Irish speakers. And they can crawl back into their hole!
