Semi regular reminder that not everything Otherworldly is sidhe. The Aos sidhe are a specific group of beings. There's a lot of other options out there as well.

Today's random Irish myth fun fact:
Although most well-known as the king of the sidhe in Galway, Finnbheara is one of the Tuatha Dé Danann and the youngest son of the Dagda.
(See: Altram Dá Tige Medar)

I tried watching the Lost Book episode but couldn't get past the first 2 minutes.
I thought the actors standing in awkward silence for 30ish seconds was bad, but turns out that was better than the dialogue and acting when they started talking...

Ugh. I thought this guy had disappeared after being outed as a racist, nationalist dick.
How can anyone take this garbage seriously?
Bad writing, bad acting, nonsensical plot, mauling the mythology....

.

This will haunt me.
Also the narrator pronouncing Cu Chulainn as "kooklin"

I have not, do not, and will not use generative AI.
My writing is wholly my own, for good or ill, and always will be.
Ive started added statements to that effect in my books, but it applies to all my writing, including articles, chapters, short stories, etc.,

'Complex, dangerous, sexual beings': The centuries-old origins of current fairy fiction The fairies in erotic "fae" romantasy are not cute or benevolent. They are dangerous, shape-shifting beings, exactly what they were in historic folklore, according to a new book.

Agreed. I also think he's enormously pretentious to imply all authors and students use generative AI, but dont all admit it.
I do not and will not ever, and im not the only one with that stance.

From the review: The Fairy Courts can be read with profit by many different audiences: folklorists, cultural historians, librarians, writers, poets, practicing witches & pagans & by the religious or non-religious, skeptics & scholars & laypersons alike

Very nice and very thorough review of Fairy Courts

something to keep in mind when seeing "folklore" posts on social media.
A lot of pages are pretty obviously using AI now, & AI will repeat *everything* on a topic without any differentiation. Folklore, fiction, gaming, satire, Ao3, doesn't matter.
Please don't automatically trust this material

Its through my publisher so amazon is fine. The only thing that matters is buying it new

“For the trouble with the real folk of Faerie is that they do not always look like what they are; and they put on the pride and beauty that we would fain wear ourselves.”

"for tūaith Hérenn bái temel
tūatha adortais síde..."
- Fiacc's Hymn
Over the people of Ireland was darkness
the people worshiped the fairies...

There seems little in the characteristics of these fairies of romance to distinguish them from human beings, except their supernatural knowledge and power. They are not often represented as diminutive, and seem to be subject to such human passions as love, jealousy, envy, & revenge
- Andrew Lang

you know, besides everything else, probably the best reason not to eat fairy food if it's ever offered to you is that it almost certainly isn't what you think it is.
don't trust appearances
