The land doesn't hold its shape that way. Two breaths, then: in through the nose, a second short sip stacked on top, out long and ragged. Three times.
That second sip is the part that actually reaches the nerve.

Cùm do chasan air an talamh — keep your feet on the ground.

Your body has been braced since somebody said the small mean word at a fairground. Bracing isn't weakness — it's a nervous system doing the job it evolved for. The trouble is nobody ever tells the body when the thing is over, so it holds that shape into September, into a jaw that clicks and a shoulder that will not come down.

The question I asked in today's issue, and I mean it as a real one: what have you actually turned your face toward this week, and what did it cost you to keep looking? I'm answering every one of these in the comments under the piece.

The goldenrod does not check the roll call, and tonight neither do you. Carry what's yours.

Set the rest down at the door like muddy boots — because it is muddy, and it isn't yours, and you've been hauling it up the stairs all week like a martyr with a subscription.

Tha sinn fhathast an seo, agus tha an talamh a' cuimhneachadh — we are still here, and the earth remembers.

Put one hand flat on the nearest solid thing. Table, wall, tree, floor. Leave it there for one whole breath before you read another headline.

The empire can schedule its shabby little votes for four in the morning if it wants. #Gàidhlig #Gaelic #Alba #MastoDaoine #Druid #Folklore #Lùnastal #Blessing #Solidarity #QueerNews #Seasons

The money isn't the point. The point is that a lie built to erase two people who told the truth collapsed in a courtroom, and the truth-tellers walked out whole. Solidarity you can feel in the hands — a name on a witness list — is the only kind history records.

“An Eala Bhan” (“The White Swan”) has been performed by a huge number of Gaelic artists from Julie Fowlis to Capercallie & Linda Macleod who grew up in the same part of North Uist as Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna. She speaks here to Cathy McDonald about the significance of the song and the man behind it

Gur duilich leam mar tha mi
’S mo chridhe ’n sàs aig bròn
Bhon an uair a dh’fhàg mi
Beanntan ard a’ cheò
Gleanntannan a’ mhànrain
Nan loch, nam bàgh ‘s nan sròm
’S an eala bhàn tha tàmh orra
Gach là air ’m bheil mi ’n tòir…

—Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna, “An Eala Ban”

The First Battle of the Somme began #OTD, 1 July, 1916. Dòmhnall Ruadh Chorùna / Donald MacDonald composed “An Eala Bhan” (“The White Swan”) during the battle.
