#Manx-Heritage
We're hoping this might be recorded but if not, it would be worth making a trip to Kirkcudbright (or Ballecheeilchoobrey as it is in the Manx Traditionary Ballad) for it

I assumed some eccentric land owner had built something into the hill below the fort, but I see on Google Maps that it's far more mundane, though I still wonder why Manx Heritage doesn't mention it.

I wondered why I'd never heard of Cronk Sumark or seen a pic of such an impressive looking place so I looked on 2 IoM visitor sites and the Manx National Heritage website and could find no mention of it. Why don't they make more of it?

I've never understood why people care what people call it, especially with Americans.

If someone is banging on about their Irish heritage and they talk about Gaelic, they're hardly talking about Manx.

English commentators are less hostile/more sympathetic to Icelandic than to Welsh
What really galls is Welsh is their heritage too - the oldest still-spoken language native to Britain (Scots Gaelic & Manx are Irish, & Pictish, Cumbric & Cornish all died out ie no native speakers left)
🤷🏻‍♀️
Listening to the coverage of Caerphilly I’m struck by the failure of commentators to even approach the correct pronunciation of the Plaid Cymru leader’s name. Welsh names can be tricky and no one expects perfection but hardly trying is telling….1/3

Hey, so white "Celtic" Americans, it's actually really, really dangerous to insist you're more welsh/irish/Scottish/manx/Breton than the people of colour who were born and raised there. Heritage is great and important, but folks are already horrifically racist enough without your help.

Nice I made some good ones as well, this one refers to my Royal Heritage (Manx and Oppland Crowns) and Heathenism and Trump's serf origins based on Salic Law, generally to belittle Trump on the basis that I have a better "claim" to the "Divine Right" MAGAs like Paula White likes to tout for Trump
