So my devotional necklace for Aphrodite broke :/ I’m not sure if I should try and fix it or get a new one? I don’t like throwing stuff out but I feel like it might’ve broken because she was protecting me from something negative, so I don’t know if I want to keep it around. Any advice?

This small carving of a water bird was created 33,000 years ago. Sculpted in mammoth ivory, it was found in the Hohle Fels cave in Germany in 2002 and it's the earliest known representation of a bird.

"Aphrodite loves terfs" do you really think a goddess of love formed from a literal penis and the mother of Hermaphroditus, an intersex god who was associated with androgyny and feminine men, fucks around with transphobia?

she is a literal trans icon and to deny that will get you smited by all the gods

#aphrodite #also Aphrodite (i think) looks to the individual as their perception of THE most beautiful person ever. so like. bc terfs are often racist. #my point is is that the goddess of love. beauty. sex. war. etc etc. cannot be tied down to one type of love. cannot be tied down to one #beauty. cannot be tied down to one type of body. to consider otherwise honestly feels blasphemous at worst and stupid at best lol #greek goddess #greek mythology #oh. a all terfs can eat bricks. all terfs deserve their lives of misery they want to force on everyone else. eat shit and stfu.

Yeah... just bc you say "those aren't real Christians!" or calling others "xtians" doesn't mean right wing christo-nationalists just suddenly aren't christian. Arguing that the left hand thumb isn't connected to the right big toe doesn't make it true.

#DONT CLOWN HERE. i do get what someone means when they say 'thats not a real christian' ..... but in this political climate i just cant #afford to differentiate the two. yall are like this 🤝 until someone points it out. and as a uterus owner im fucking done with it lol #yall are both christians. congrats on having horrible people in the group. its almost like thats religion lol #like yeah. they dont even want to look at jesus. they worship trump. but do *you* act as jesus would act? idk. in my real like the #trumplicans and the 'real christians' are often a venn diagram thats nearly a perfect circle. but i am in the bible belt so lol #and i work in a 1000% catholic town and live in a baptist one lol. this is just how im seeing it #the bad cult #my posts

If there was one animal literacy thing I could change with a wave of a wand, it would be increasing people's understanding of how dangerous megafauna are. I think that in the US (and probably other Western countries too), we're so removed from wildlife and even large domesticated animals that people really have no perspective on how much a big animal can fuck you up. Even if they're "gentle."

This is a discussion going on on Twitter, too, the last few days: there was a thing where an Iditarod musher shot a moose to protect their team, and a lot of people are confused as to why that needed to happen. Apparently this moose had been hanging around the course for quite a while and was becoming quite dangerous to the sled dog teams. Moose are territorial and not to be fucked with. Everyone from Alaska or areas with moose are like "yup, that's just reality."

Same thing with the bison birth I watched last year. Folk really thought the staff should be in the habitat on the ground with the bison herd, helping with the birth. Sure, that's what we do with cows if we have to, but... bison are definitely not cows and, again, will squish you.

People tend to get it more with the predators. Few people will argue that a cougar or an alligator or a bear isn't dangerous. I think people kinda go both ways on wild pigs / boars depending on their experience. But herbivores or things that don't look traditionally pointy... it just kinda doesn't click.

Any large animal is probably stronger than you think and more likely to hurt you than you realize. Be it a dolphin, an elk, a sea lion, or even an emperor penguin... just don't go near them, buds.

#youd be surprised about predators #wolf dogs were unfortunately popular around me when i was a a child and i was dreadfully skittish and nervous around them and was teased by #everyone. also i wish people would take dogs more seriously and leash them. the last most recent incident for me was when i was walking my #ex's dog on a leash and three dogs from the neighbors rushed us. i didnt know if it was territorial. i didnt know how my ex's dog would #react. and i was treated like i was crazy for worrying about it. i say 'i hate dogs' a lot but i really just hate dog owners at this point. #they act like dogs are lil angels and not the predator animals they actually are despite their anthropomorphized-ness #sorry. i know this was about large herbivores but i wish people would treat animal as they actually are instead 'thats a human in a X.' #if that makes sense #treating even large farm animals like there an uwu weird dog ... idk. sometime i hope for human hubris to bite them in the ass lol #its like. i hope that horse bites a chunk out of you lmao. youll get a good look at those herbivore teeth 😂 #animals #nature

Walk in on parents having a heated debate.

Am worried for a bit. Are they fighting?

Realize parents are having a heated debate on whether or not goats can climb trees.

Immediately side with mom, because I know goats can fuckin climb fucking ANYTHING because I remember the “crave that mineral” meme with the goat on the vertical cliff face apparently levitating to achieve the mineral it craves.

who fuckin says the internet never taught me anything

Dad has to leave to go back to work. Leaves convinced that no, goats can’t climb trees, they’re goats, they stay on the ground.

Once he’s gone, youtube search “Moroccan Tree Goats.” Find self-explanatory video of several goat up in a fuckin tree like some Dr. Seuss shit.

Mom looks at me like it’s the proudest she’s ever been of me in her life, including my university graduation

She emails it to him. At work. My dad will get a video of Moroccan goats screaming in a tree at his place of business, with the subject line “I TOLD YOU SO.”

Mom triumphantly yells to the empty house, “THIS IS WHY PEOPLE IN THE BIBLE THOUGHT GOATS WERE THE DEVIL.”

Another ordinary day in my house.

I know it's a thing on here to treat ppl who are unamused by horoscope shit as wet blankets but frankly there is something uniquely aggravsting abt telling another person your star sign in order to participate in what you assume is lighthearted convo and watching a respected adult peer actively adjust how they feel about you as a person in real time bc of the day of the year you happened to be born on

#i used to want to be really into astrology but it seems like this post #i do have a sign i no longer like but if i can be forgiven its bc its my dads. lil sis. ex bff. another ex bff. and my ex husband's sign lol #ok ok universe. i hear you lol #astrology

if it sucks generally hit da bricks yes. but there are also going to be times in life where you have to stay in uncomfortable or sucky situations because the only way out is through. and that is how life works. sometimes you have to keep that terrible job or that shitty apartment. this site's policy of "don't sink years of your life into something that's not going to be worthwhile" can kind of turn into "immediately stop doing anything you don't like" sometimes and that bothers me

#i think people just need to be smart about it too #an ex friend broke her apartment lease. just told her landlord shed pay whatever. and quit her job. with no back up plan #and i had no spare room. had no couch at the time. told her she uad to move back home. the friendship died pretty much there #IN MY DEFENSE her mother and i live really close. and are nearly the same distance from where she was #and IN MY DEFENSE this girl wouldn't come to my dad and grandpa's funerals that were a month apart and hit me really hard but i was expecte #to be at her graduation in the next month after that #so.... i told her to go to her mom's. point is - dont do shit if you dont have a way out. #dont jump off a cliff without a parachute #Oh. also IN MY DEFENSE she didn’t ask beforehand if i could even take her. she did all that and then just told me she was moving in #after shes told me six months earlier she wouldn’t make the drive to see my at those funerals #so. so so so...
