“what if people transition and then regret it?” ok. let’s do that with everything. no more straight marriages until the heterosexual divorce rate is below the detransition rates

Hey you good? you reblogged this like three times now.
A tour of the British Isles in accents: for those who would be tempted to mention “A British accent” and leave it at that.
…Smart to remember, too, that all these regions will have microregional variants. The Dublin accent referenced here, for example, is only one of at least five or six that I can identify, and I bet there are a lot more I’ve never heard or can’t tell from one another. Ditto for other regions in Ireland. The “Irish accent” as normally heard in US TV and film until quite recently has never been much more than an overstated, artficial “Dublin Stage” accent.
Equally, what most people in the US think of as “the British accent” beloved of movie villains everywhere is usually the so-called Received Pronunciation or RP, a kind of by-blow of the BBC’s refusal for a long time to allow its announcers to use anything but an approved version of the Home Counties “posh” accent. (This dialectic “glass wall” has finally started cracking in the last decade.)
This is … fantastic reference.
Of use to actors and fanfic writers everywhere!
thank you, my accent is very different to those living 50 miles away
It’s my 8 year anniversary on Tumblr 🥳
Email protest #HelpOurKids flood the inboxes of GillianKeegan & RishiSunak.
For the children waiting for #diagnosis, #ehcp, those with #anxiety, #SEN, the #EBSA children threatened with punishment rather than support. For all those stuck in the system waiting for services.
