In addition to the blurb above, I'm a recovering mathematician, Jewish, and autistic as fuck--those didn't alliterate

Sometimes I write poems, mostly in English and Spanish

I feel weird putting my age in my bio but I am in fact a Grown Up if you were worried

“This repression is a side effect of the levels of Islamophobia and anti-Arab racism in Germany. It's important to continue to highlight that this is not really a repression of Irish culture. It's the repression of Irish solidarity with Palestine.

It's like the Berlin police are actively trying to cause an international incident

Further context now that I read the article:

  • The Berlin police have banned speech unless it is in English or German, or there is a translator on hand to tell the police what is being said, so that they know what to censor (!)
  • Irish people living in Berlin realized they could use their country's intense language pride to bring attention to this issue
  • It's 100% going to work

Thinking about other EU member states with comparable cultural ties to protecting their language, I think someone should try this in French.
