The Battle of Culloden lives down in infamy to this day. It was the last pitched battle on British soil as the weary Highlanders were crushed.

Stone cairns mark the mass graves where the various clans fell. Miraculously, Bonnie Prince Charlie escaped to the Outer Hebrides.

If u don’t want to agree to it being a colony then at least accept that they, along with the Irish and the Welsh were oppressed. If you don’t want to accept that then I don’t really know what to tell you becuase to me what im about to list right now seems an obvious example of oppression; trying to wipe out and I quote “ethnically cleanse” cultures, beating children for speaking Gaelic or Welsh right up until the late 20th century, after the battle of Culloden tartan and Gaelic was banned and if caught speaking Gaelic or wearing tartan, you were exiled, flogged or even executed, if you happened to have any ties with the Jacobites then you were literally rounded up and executed. Another example and a much more modern one is an account from my great grandma saying when she was at school you could be beat for speaking Gaelic and when my Nan was younger she was literally taught to “speak English” or more “proper”, meaning getting rid of the accent. Another example are the deep rooted stereotypes that still exist today about Scottish people, that all of them are “violent”, “angry”, “loud”, “drunk”, “savages”, “barbarians”, “not feminine” I could go on.. but these type of things are so common and they’ve been taught for so long that it is impossible not to think of the Scot’s like that and yes, some people may not be thinking of it as “not that deep” when in reality it is because they just aren’t funny and they make people look at us as if were some sort of joke, like our accents are always the butt of the joke or something. My mum has experienced things as simple as a dirty look whenever she gets a bit loud of says something in a strong accent and even on one occasion, an officer in the army telling my dad to “control his wife” after she refused to sing God save the King, as if she were “out of control” or something. All of these things are some sort of oppression and even though they aren’t as severe as they were before, they are still a thing.

I could go on about this topic for hours talking about other things like when talking about being Scottish, they always end up being the butt of the joke whether that be making fun of the accent, making fun of the bagpipes, the traditional dress. I live in England and I have a lot of friends who tend to do these things subconsciously and I wouldn’t hold it against them but I think it does need to be spoken about more and spoken about where it comes from and why it could be quite offensive. I’m so sorry to ramble on but a quick thing to point out is the fact that just becuase I want to spread the history of oppression of the Scot’s, it does not mean that I deny their involvement in the British colonialism of other countries and the involvement in the slave trade, i am aware it happened and are embarrassed and ashamed of the Scottish people who did that and I do consider them to be a “traitor” to Scotland but I just want to make my country’s history known and how they did suffer without people comparing or disregarding as something not that important or not as bad, yes some Scot’s did awful things and were involved willingly with British colonialism etc but it should not shrug off the suffering they went through as a country themselves.

I am sorry I couldn’t speak more for the Welsh or Irish but I didn’t want to then speak about their history and get it wrong. 🫶

Comic Sans Valentines: Stuart Edition

Imagine you have travelled back through time, and find yourself in the middle of some splendid court festivities... The gentlemen wear their finest embroidered suits, the ladies their most choice jewels and you marvel at the spectacle you are allowed to partake in. As you retire to a balcony to take some fresh air with your glass of syllabub, you feel a hand brushing your shoulder. As you turn, a calm, albeit laboured voice breathes into your ear: "My cannon hasn't seen action since the Siege of Derry." *wink* You recoil and screaming-- and wake up sitting upright in your bed.

Upon suggestion from @vankeppel, have some terrible pick-up lines from terrible dead people!

There are two options for Bonnie Prince Charlie; a fairly obvious one alluding to Mo Ghile Mear, and a second one for fans of the 1925 musical Dearest Enemy (...are there any?) who'll know there was more than one 18th century "Betsy Burke" who had a few (tender) brushes with gentlemen in red coats.
