(I am 6 months pregnant)
Me after ordering my coffee:
Stranger at Starbucks: you know you should be drinking decaf when you’re pregnant.
Me: I’m... not pregnant.
Stranger: (horrified) I am so, so sorry!
And that’s what you get for giving unsolicited advice.

Lots of Americans confused about Irish twitter because our Anglo-centric education taught us Ireland suffered a “famine” when it was really a British led genocide.

The Brits were exporting Ireland’s crops while the Irish literally starved to death. There are over 70 million people around the world with Irish heritage because their ancestors were forced to leave their homeland or starve with the rest.

When you’re pregnant it’s strange enough to lose so much of your body autonomy to the baby, but then everyone else confirms it’s no longer your body as well. It’s the worst part about being pregnant.

If you have an Irish ancestor, chances are they departed from the port of Cobh, this was the last glimpse of Ireland they would ever see. So many around the world are victims of imperialism; we cannot forget and must fight for truth. “The past is never dead. It's not even past.”
