So uh apparently there is a group of witches on the clock app that do something called pop culture deity worship and there are videos of a.starion girlies who are literally worshipping a.starion as a god.
Bruh I’m trying to be tolerant of spiritual beliefs but I am side eying this because I am an elder millennial and I lived through the s.napewives era and it’s a slippery slope y’all.

The abuse you went through and the consequent trauma is not a way for the universe to punish you for anything you did previously. It is not because you have made mistakes, or because you committed a sin, it is not karma. You did not "have this coming your way". Please don't try to rationalize the abuse you went through by finding reasons to blame yourself. The perpetrator of the abuse was the one at fault.

All jokes about my religion aside, but I am pretty happy that I managed to make an small enviroment where you guys feel comfortable sharing your thoughts and opinions too, to make an small place/circle where people can feel comfortable to talk about the things they like or not. Be yourselves mates

I really like playing with symmetry tools and brushes and just. Draw a line and bam it's a thing now. Then I make it be that on purpose. That's art sometimes. Very satisfying. Highly recommended.
Reblogs are not required but they bring me joy! (if you don't know the difference between reblogging and reposting, ask)

Jesus was going to come back to Earth but he saw all the images we put up of him being violently and painfully murdered and was like "ehhhhhh... they can wait a few more millennia" while shuffling back out of our dimension awkwardly.

Did you know that placing gargoyles on the building's exterior reinforced the idea that evil dwelt outside the church while salvation dwelt within.
Kinda; they also served as a means to keep rainwater away from the building.

Ok so this is a rant.
I was with my birth family today and the topic of war came up. My mother said how "Before Jesus comes, there is going to be war and rumors of war." I said how I thought that was stupid, how people have to suffer such vile pain just for Jesus to be like "Haha you should've believed in me like look I made you suffer and you could've found solace in me." And my mother said "Well we have to go through pain to get better."
I don't even know how to explain how angry I was?? Like, you are excusing and downgrading the horror of war by saying that it's "Jesus's plan". These people, beautiful and complicated and precious humans just like us, are going through the most painful thing ever to happen to a human, and you are just going to say it's because Jesus wants us to be better? Children and elderly and disabled people have to suffer? So they can be redeemed? What the actual fuck is wrong with you?
Free Palestine. End this fucking war.

Some people think the word "gringo" is a slur. It literally means something like "foreigner", someone that comes from another country. But I just realized that when a Brazilian says "gringo!!!!" like they are genuinely happy to see you it's really because they are glad you're here and they want to teach you stuff about Brazil and integrate you to the culture and learn about yours and make friends with you, we are just really extroverted and we love other cultures.
Like, last week I was at a Buddhist temple that had all types of Asian culture related things (even though Buddhism isn't prevalent in every country in Asia, here you will get white christians praying on the temple because historically we incorporated so many religions into our own culture and people think "well, what if it works?" and sensible people don't think it's heretical). It was a also a celebration that incorporated a Brazilian festival called "June parties", that became so popular that they start in the end of May and go until August instead of actually lasting for only June and it was based on catholic beliefs but people from all religions go just to have fun, dance and eat. And then we were doing that, but adding multiple Asian cultures in a Buddhist temple. All at the same time, same place, everybody having fun.
Anyway some gringos were there and they were a bit overwhelmed but really happy to see all the different cultural things going on, when to us it is just another year's festival and sometimes we forget this doesn't happen everywhere. And people were trying to explain to them why we do that, what you can do at those festivals and they were sunburned and everyone just wanted to integrate them to the festival. English was not even their first language and everyone was struggling a bit to communicate but we tried because it's so fun when someone is genuinely interested in the mix up culture/faith/ethnicities we have here.
In some rare occasions, if people say "gringo." and it sounds too serious and they say it with a bit of a condescending tone, you just did something racist or disrespectful and then it becomes something that means "this person thinks they are so superior and they haven't even tried to get to know us", kind of like when people say in English "this is white people stuff" right after they said something racist that shows lack of awareness and privilege. That's what I think might come closest to an English expression in that context.
If you get offended by someone's "very excited that you're here" tone of saying "gringo!!!" then you might get offended by the monotone "gringo." which basically means that you were going racist/xenophobic. Most people will try the "welcome" tone of the word, and they might give you "gringo" as a nickname and it usually means that you are well-liked. Just make sure you are the type of person that will continue to get that happy emphasis on the word and don't say racist shit.
Tldr: it's not a slur and people are usually genuinely interested in you and trying to integrate you into the culture and happy to see that you wanted to come here in the first place. But if anyone is openly racist, and people get irritated, then the very monotone way of calling someone a gringo serves as a warning to other Brazilians that you were saying racist things without even trying to get to know the culture or the people in it. The word exists in both Portuguese and Spanish but I am talking about Brazilian Portuguese since that's where I'm from. It's all in the tone and it's never a slur, and in its negative meaning it just serves to tell other Brazilians that you are saying racist stuff, but it usually has a sort of "hey, it's cool that you're here and I wanna show you some nice stuff to do around here".

Ostello And Family
Oscar Lawrence was born to Ruth and Timothy Lawrence in 1899. On December 25th, 1910, Timothy died in the line of duty as a firefighter. This left Ruth to raise her son and navigate a blossoming romance with Marty Nichols, a friend of the family. While he never harbored any bad feelings for Marty, he never did grow to see him as his father.
When he was 20 (August 3rd, 1919), he met 17 year-old Olivia Fairchild at a church choir meeting, who became almost instantly infatuated with him. He was not really looking for a relationship, but his mother insisted that he try dating, and Olivia was earnest about gaining his affections. They married in July of 1921, just a few short months after Oscar became a famous pop-jazz singer.
When Oscar was 33 and Olivia was 28 (March 15th, 1932), they welcomed Gertrude Rose Lawrence into the world. His one-sided emotional affair with Alastor (@ritzy-cervidae) was what prompted her middle name to be rose, as those were his favorite flowers. It was his crush on Alastor that spurred the making of Gertie in the first place.
He was an absentee father, touring and doing movie shoots in Hollywood a lot of the time while his wife and daughter remained in Nebraska. In the long run, he was a better father to Shirley Temple than he was to his actual daughter. He knew her so little that he didn't remember her full name was Gertrude and not Gertie.
After falling into Hell when he died of a combination of liver failure and a heart attack at 45 (May 3rd, 1944), Ostello sunk into his work. He did not date from 1944-1972, until he met Valentino at one of his infamous parties. He was instantly infatuated and they married two months later. While he wanted a child with Valentino, it never actually happened for them.

I saw a comment on some post yesterday saying "don't blame Christianity the Romans did this too" like uh yeah who do you think taught the Christians? Just cuz the Romans did something doesn't mean all of human history is littered with it but I bet the Romans would love knowing you still think they were normal and a good standard to compare the rest of humanity to
