If your push for Celtic freedom doesn't include freedom for all Celtic peoples, it isn't worth anything. If your push for Celtic freedom doesn't include freedom for all peoples, it's no good at all. These are easy principles. None of us are free until all of us are free.

Language is political, minority languages especially so. Learning Cornish is an explicitly political, explicitly radical act, whether or not you acknowledge it as such.

Super-fluent Cornish – Kernewek Gorfreth
Many arguments made in favour of working with Artificial Intelligence are based firstly on the assumption that we can even successfully achieve training it well, which is doubtful in my mind, but is an argument to be made elsewhere. More importantly, the secondary argument is based on the idea that AI that speaks good Cornish is better than AI that speaks bad Cornish.

Disgusting. 'I'd like to participate in your culture, but I'm put off because it lives'. Monstrous. Our language is for us. Others may freely join us in enjoying it, but not without us. We are here. We live yet. You care about us less because we live yet. We're not going anywhere. Omma hwath.

Turning Saffron into Slop – Treylya Safran yn Skomblans
Kernewek is under attack. The attacker? Machine-made rubbish. Fresh from companies dictionary-bashing to make terrible 'translations' for their black-and-gold-washing brandification of Kernow, the shoddiness has spiralled. Error-riddled AI ‘Kernewek textbooks’ have appeared on Amazon, by ‘authors’ who are at best well-meaning but harmful and at worst out to exploit us. Worse, a prominent crackpot is 'translating' conspiracy theories into 'Cornish' en masse.

If Kernow’s MPs are currently in discussion with Government about what Cornish devolution should look like, those talks should be informed by the woeful national response to Storm Goretti and a desperate need for greater self-sufficiency.

Now's the perfect time to start volunteering, if you have the time. It doesn't have to be for a charity, it can be for a local organisation, a mutual aid group, self-organised like litter-picking, heck, we'd even say learning Kernewek is volunteering your time for something bigger
