the fucking isolation sally jackson must've felt when she was trying to pry her demigod child who physically cannot drown from the edge of a pool bc he's afraid to learn to swim. it is such a comedically stupid situation but she cant complain about it to a single mortal soul.

#pjo #percy jackson #percy jackson and the olympians #im so glad the show is aggressively pro sally jackson #i fucking love the beginning of titans curse where she's driving them all to their battle #and percys so embarassed #lol #she obviously didnt know he couldnt drown but still #id want to scream at him that he's the son of the sea god so many times lol #like #kid this is going to be the easiest thing you ever learn you've Got to naturally good at this

ugh I reallllyyyyy didn’t want to get in on this but like

The assumption that all atheists are people who’ve “never touched a religious text in their life” basically says to me you have a specific view of atheists and have probably not known many.

Most of them grew up IN the system and DO know the text and THAT’S why they walk away.

If you’re gonna make a whole post on ppl not using nuance with CR stuff right now the least you can do is use nuance yourself and not paint an entire group of people with a brush that TV taught you, or a bunch of white men into power *cough* Dawkins *cough* coopted a movement in a society where to not believe in god is synonymous with being immoral.

So just keep in mind, the representation of people without faith that you see on TV or twitter isn’t the majority and 9 times out of 10 isn’t correct at all.

thanks ^_^

#I learned a new word the other day #apatheism or something #b/c there isn't a word for what I am #but like I know that people who don't know what I am will paint me with the nuance-less brush of #oh you're atheist or whatever #but yeah #maybe also pick up on the nuance that Matt's putting down #that not all the Prime deities are the saammmme #can't paint them all with a brush too #just funny that so many people saying I want to be free to not worship anything rn brings so much ridicule #I'm sad ppl are taking a really fascinating complicated take on gods and such is being turned into this stupid fight #just BREATHE please #yes I'm sub-blogging a little b/c I don't want to get into it #I just want ppl to keep in mind that some people out there are ppl too #sorry I don't mean to go off but it's a sensitive point for me #something I never talk about b/c of opinions like that out there #can't wait to see my follower count drop b/c this sorta thing always does T_T #I just wanna be me and make the world a better place isn't that enough #Tria rants

The Star Market

Marie Howe

The people Jesus loved were shopping at the Star Market yesterday. An old lead-colored man standing next to me at the checkout breathed so heavily I had to step back a few steps.

Even after his bags were packed he still stood, breathing hard and hawking into his hand. The feeble, the lame, I could hardly look at them: shuffling through the aisles, they smelled of decay, as if the Star Market

had declared a day off for the able-bodied, and I had wandered in with the rest of them—sour milk, bad meat— looking for cereal and spring water.

Jesus must have been a saint, I said to myself, looking for my lost car in the parking lot later, stumbling among the people who would have been lowered into rooms by ropes, who would have crept

out of caves or crawled from the corners of public baths on their hands and knees begging for mercy.

If I touch only the hem of his garment, one woman thought, could I bear the look on his face when he wheels around?

#I posted an excerpt of this poem yesterday but it felt necessary to post the whole thing today #because this poem #this darn poem #knows exactly where i live #'the feeble the lame i could hardly look at them'#i (like many of you) grew up around Christians like 85% of the time #i chose not to go to a Christian college specifically so that i could try to mitigate this part of my heart #that feels almost viscerally uncomfortable around certain types of people #i want to learn to love all my neighbors with Christ's abounding love #i know that I am no less sinful than my neighbor #but sometimes it's like there's a bee in the room and i don't know where it is #i'm set on edge by certain kinds of sin #in a way that i'm not by others #i'm sure this is true in degrees for many of us raised in the church #and this poem. this darn poem calls us out directly #it calls /me/ out directly #'The people Jesus loved were shopping at the Star Market yesterday. I could hardly look at them.'#'Jesus must have been a saint (that's the one bit i don't like-- Jesus must have been GOD) to be able to love these people'#'these people who came stumbling towards him crawling towards him lowered through the ceiling towards him'#'begging for mercy. begging with more humility than I manage on any but my best day'#'the people Jesus loved-- and i could hardly look at them'#and that last line hits you right in the solar plexus #'if I could only touch the hem of his garment could I bear the look on his face when he wheels around?'#no. no i don't think i could #and yet #i imagine that look would be so so beautiful #and by the grace of God i know i CAN bear it #i and all the other people Jesus loves #Bible humans #literature makes us more human

I actually love learning history, but we barely learn any of it in school. I want to learn EVERYTHING! ESPECIALLY the crazy stuff! Teach me the things that don't make sense! Teach me the details about how people loved, what they did! What shinanigins did they get up to? Make me reenact something ridiculous and crazy!

Gods, I love history!

Got these pictures from my for you page on Tik Tok

These pictures are NOT mine.

#tik tok #history #love history #this isn't history related but way do we have to take 4 whole years of English???#like wtf #i swear to god we basically do the same thing every year #my mom said when she was in highschool they had to take Latin #i wanna be forced to learn a language #latin sounds kinda cool #my school doesn't even teach that #i want asl to be a language class #i bet SO many people would benefit in the future from learning it.#mention of witches #witches #mention of witches burning/witch trails #history is actually pretty fucking cool ngl #I kinda hated learning history in school #it was just so fucking boring #i learned all of the past presidents in second grade #why do i need to do that again in highschool?#i can't believe we didn't watch Hamilton in any of my history classes #HISTORY #make history more fun to learn #why is it like school was designed to punish us

when homeboy G was making me he just hit copy and paste on my dad and slapped some tits on

#shitpost #every day I am faced with the fact I am SO my fathers daughter #(not a girl)#don’t think too much about the homeboy g thing I just thought I’d I only said god people would think I believed in a god #and i do not want that. that makes me feel very uncomfortable personally #that people would perceive me as such #but anyway! me and my dad are like if two sides of the same coin were one coin #we r so much alike it is. WOAG #he got home and was like hey quil check out this thing I learned in my class #and i went wow check out this thing I learned in MY class #and he went wow #because we have fucking. SO MANY of the same interests #also my not liking clothes thing comes from him #fun fact #this barely scratches the surface of how much I’m like my father btw #i could go on for HOURS #i mean this is in a neutral positive way btw #love my dad :)

So Starstruck Odyssey grabbed me by the throat and rocketed it’s way to second place campaign for me (TUC still has first in my heart ❤️) but uhm. Can you tell who my favorite character is. It’s definitely not Skip I promise why would you think that-

#okay I like his lil brain slug autistic ass. sue me LMFAO #my art #described #dimension 20 #dimension 20 a starstruck odyssey #a starstruck odyssey #norman takamori #skip takamori #prince valdrinor #before I got to the last episode I was thinking up an au where Norman and Skip learn to coexist symbiotically in the body. then the finale-#-came around and was like ‘HEY THATS CANON ACTUALLY’ and I’ve never felt more satisfied in my LIFE THEY LEARN TO LIVE TOGETHERRRRRR #I was thinkin of the fact that the sorta fatherly desires came from Norman. and Massive Daddy Issues Skip. put those two together and-#-what if Norman just adopted the little slug that was sharing his body with him. whabbout that #I just like the idea that they become close like OUGH inject close Norman and Skip directly into my bloodstream thanks #I wanted to draw Skip more like a slug too so. slug boy. I gave him eyes just cus I wanted to give him a lil more expression but he still-#-can’t physically see. they’re more useful for his psychic/life sensing but he has no physical sense of sight through them #he’ll come out of the body sometimes cus he knows Norman and the crew will keep him safe. and after spending so long in the cold he-#-enjoyed the warmth and safety the folks on the wurst provided him.#I feel so many things about Skip good fucking god HE’S A SLUG AND I LVOE HIM #skipperskip

I have spent nearly 24 hours playing in stars and time and I’ve only had it for 5 days, this is the face of someone who’s sane totally.

#in stars and time #that’s right it’s another I need to get all of my thoughts out there post #I’ve also learned that it’s 6 acts???? not even halfway through damn #I find it funny that they do not get suspicious of the fact that siff is like ridiculously strong compared to them all of a sudden lol #I also just love doing so many suspicious things on purpose like come on odi call me out #also theory time I’m pretty sure that the head housemaiden played apart In disappearing that country #I’m not as sure of it as I am sure that the king and siff came from that country though but that’s not saying much cause I’m 99% sure of #that now #also wooooowwwww so many cockblockers in this party 😔#this is a post i made #and the obligatory no spoilers tag #oh yeah the other thing I wanted to tell about!!! wtf we just meet the change god #they’re sorta a meanie to siff 😔 like you’re nice to Mira but wdym you’re enjoying watching siff suffer #yoooooooo a day later and they immediately point out the weird boost in power I love this game

I guess I can't really get behind cas saving dean from hell as a destiel win, or lines like 'you don't think you deserve to be saved', because. this is not a point at which cas is doing because he believes dean is good and loves him or anything but. he saves dean because that's heaven's will. when he reminds dean that cas, and heaven, are who saved him in early s4, it's not him really saying 'you're a good man', it's a debt that he is using, pretty explicitly, to get dean to do what heaven wants. even the handprint reads like... ownership, in a way.

cas is complicit in heaven's manipulation of dean after he's pulled out of hell. that's what makes his rebellion later powerful, because this is an angel who believes in heaven so strongly that he will look into the eyes of the righteous man he saved and tell him that if he doesn't do what he's told, he will throw dean back into hell.

#this is not an anti-cas post to be clear. or even really anti-destiel?#it's just kind of weird that this is all portrayed so romantically when like. that's not how it is in the show.#castiel marks dean because heaven owns his ass. not because he loves him. dean is a tool to them. engraved.#this is a personal thing anyway #i like this about their relationship. i think its more impactful for cas to view dean the same way heaven does at first. as a sword.#and then to learn more about him and to realize that he should trust him over heaven.#rather than him being dtf from the get-go #also because hgnnn dehumanization brain go brrrrr. to get pulled out of hell and for your savior to look at you as a dog that needs to have #his chain yanked and reminded he can be sent back to the pound if he bites #i take it back cas saving dean from hell is a destiel thing in the way that it is cas collaring dean for heaven's use and realizing that #maybe he wants dean collared for his own use deep down. cas who hasn't interacted with anyone but other angels in centuries.#who has lost so many of his siblings to save this one man. who has no real control over what he is ordered to carry out.#looking at dean like. but i can control him. he will obey me. i can be his private god.#yeah its destiel like that i guess #destiel #spn #dean winchester #castiel

THAT BAD #IF YOU GUYS SAY YESS YOULL SEE #ok but nasty bad art aside I know some of you will be asking why white Montag is such a bad thing and #there isn’t anything wrong with it!!! it’s just that for me personally #after I did a bit more thinking I was. physically incapable of perceiving Montag as anything other than POC/nonwhite #so when I look back at my old f451 art and stare into the eyes of a pale skittish twink it just #it doesn’t click. like that isn’t MY Montag if ykwim #now trembling BROWN skittish twink. that’s a different story #AGAIN I DONT have any issues with ppl making their own versions white I just think that . for me specifically. he looked a bit funny #a little off. a bit too crackerish for my liking #where is bros melanin 😭#I’m complaining right now but if I wanted to I could just… go in and try and make the skin tone darker #I might do that depending on how tired I feel after doomscrolling #also if it matters even though I have read the book over at least 8 times now not once have I touched either of the movies.#and it will STAY THAT WAY. until I completely log my notes for the book #then I can move on to the movies 🥰#but I will admit 2018 did sort of lead me to having a change of heart w my design. just a little. just a teensy bit. kinda. sort of?#actually not really now that I think about it #I have my own reasons.#TOO MANY WHITE PEOPLE MY EYES THEY BURN AAAYHHHHH MY EYES OW OW OW OWIEEEE #my Beatty design was so white that my eyes developed stage 4 cataracts #I needed a palate cleanser that WASNT Millie… oh god my Millie design…#she was white there too. terrible #it’s okay… 💔 I’ve since learned and moved on #ARGH GUYS I DONT HATE WHITE PEOPLE I JUST THINK THAT MORE SKIN COLOR VARIATIONS WOULD E NICE

Just for the record, the Cayde drama started because I made a post explaining how the final Nightmare in Season of the Haunted won't be Cayde because many people started speculating how it might be Cayde.

And I just made a post explaining how we already know it's Ghaul and how this has been known since the season started and since we've seen the story cutscene. Hell, it's on seasonal art poster. It was very strange to see several posts discussing and speculating about the final Nightmare when the final Nightmare has been known to us since day 1 of the season. Totally fine to not know if you don't play the game btw, obviously if you're not playing and aren't watching video recaps, you can't know. I'm happy to fill people in if needed.

Like, I want to reiterate that the drama started because I explained basic seasonal storytelling to people. No wonder so many have no clue what the narrative point of Forsaken was.

Also for another record, not a single dead character is being treated the way Cayde is. None of them still get the same amount of merchandise (or merch at all) or in-game mentions long after their death.

All mentions of Cayde on Ishtar. He has 94 mentions after his death (omitted one from WQ which seems to be a mistaken attribution). In every single season and expansion. 648 total mentions. The other two living members of the Vanguard and de facto main characters, Ikora and Zavala, have not yet reached double that despite being alive and active for twice the time Cayde has been. Ikora has 950 and Zavala 1025. Osiris, a character that's far more important than Cayde and also still alive has 693, barely surpassing Cayde who has been dead for 4 years. Eris, far more important and still alive also barely surpasses a character who's been dead for 4 years with 787.

So for all the claims about Bungie erasing him: get a grip. They really shouldn't be encouraging it anymore tbh, but they've been consistent in telling us that he is dead and there are no secret schemes and plotlines about bringing him back. That much is clear from the plethora of mentions he's getting every single season and expansion. Bungie is trying to be nice and still provide content about a character that's far less relevant now than many other characters. Appreciate it because most other fans aren't getting a fraction of this.

#destiny 2 #cayde-6 #long post #already seen some under the impression that people randomly began shittalking cayde today for no reason #a few other people made similar posts to mine being baffled about the drama as well #where are lore tabs about sagira and her life with osiris #where are lore tabs about sloane or asher or even god damn vance #where are lore tabs about iconic characters from back in the day like iron lords .#this one dead character is still getting merchandise and appearances in lore while many ALIVE characters haven't had an update in years #the entitlement is baffling #this entire drama is bizarre beyond comprehension #literally trying to explain things to people and getting 50 notes of people acting absolutely insane all day #and having weird rants in the main tags #and now since people are saying wild shit about 'haters' (?) i have to post one too again #i refused to play destiny for a whole year because of cayde's death btw. i was so mad that i didn't want to play the game for a year #but then i came back and played and it actually made sense and the overall story #i didn't learn literary analysis from tumblr

teenagers are always fun and wear fashionable clothes you guys just hate to see the younger generation having fun without you

#writing this to remind me to not hate younger people or younger generation #especially when i get older a few years from now #kinda an out of nowhere rant but i been seeing alots of street interview about fashion with teen or young adults #and it pissed me off so bad seeing all the adults and elder millenials in the comment saying that this generation got trashy taste #trashy taste stealing style from other decade and also they love to be so defensive when someone mentioned that they hate skinny jean #personally i hate skinny jean too as a plus size girlie so its so pleasing seeing many people nowadays kinda go against it now #god please forbid that shit #anyways back to the main thing im saying here is that #fashion is a circle it came back and forth for many years so i dont see any point in the discussion about “gen z fashion is unoriginal”#as in the 70s there was a medival dresses revival trend #and in the 80s mod and 50s house wives dresses made a comeback #fast forward into the early 2010s we saw the hippie style suddenly became fashionable again #(though it was far from the “original hippies” from the 60s)#and now in the 20s y2k became trendy #so i just see no point in being noisy about nowadays fashion being so random #at the end of the day what everyone should do is that we should let whatever people want to wear instead of pointlessly critisizing them #people have different taste in fashion its not so hard to learn abt that espesially for older figures #rant ended please dont read these they are kinda pointless and incoherent since i have been wanting to rant abt fashion for a while #anyways peace #rant

Well! Well. I shut off Oblivion. I went to annoy Lev in the astral. He has a body chilling on my bed reading something or playing with something or. whatever. Anyway. So I start making Poses at him again because something in my goddamn biology needs to fucking do weird ass bird mating dances at him at every given opportunity. My bed is right beside my desk, head of the bed and back of the desk are in a line. Im sitting at my desk physically. I'm like oh. Sudden strong spirit presence beside me! Said hi to Lev guessing he got up to watch over my shoulder because I closed oblivion and he was asking me about it (so he probably came to look) and then was like. Oh that's not you is it. Because. That's where my astral body is.

Yeah no that was me. Because I could turn around and look through planes into my faces.

It's not the first time I've had a strong presence in the astral! I do that every once in a blue moon. I've dropped the temperature and brightness of rooms before, the spirits possessing my body have felt me before in the way I feel them but

I. don't talk about this because I don't agree p shifting is a thing but this is dangerously close to p shifting type beliefs, but in my and my groups experience spirits can actually physically come here. All planes are connected, it's not about a Veil but about a huge magnetic gap between this plane and the others and it's huge polarisation that means you need a fuck tonne of energy to translate yourself into a body on this plane And to get back out of it so it tends it really just be gods coming here and generally as shit like animals so they don't get Spotted. Generally. I don't care if anyone believes me I don't talk about it for others - uh. double meaning there. I'm not talking about it for others now, and usually I never mention it for others' sakes. This is not about others

But I was thinking that. I get thoughts crossing my mind especially lately about "well if I had a fuck tonne of energy, could I be here in two bodies...." in the way of the theory of it. trying to understand more about how this plane works and whatnot. this.

This was the first time. looking at myself through planes. Where I was like. I have two bodies in the same universe. both real. both exist. both are me. This is not some abstract "I exist and then the astral is some foreign place" I was in another body as real as this one on the fucking other side of the veil and I felt myself there. Like I've felt myself in the astral before, but now I'm like. spirits are not vague fucking things. I know they're real i Know the theory but I never let myself KNOW the theory

#ramblings //#Heehee hoohoo Im very aware my own fate bodies caused this 3-5 days of no meds so I could feel shit again bc they're numbing af #And I have so many plans for ways to wake myself the fuck up #S //#Diary //#Also. Real shit. Don't learn from me I'm not a teacher. If you want to know if spirits can do this work with them and form good solid #relationships with them. specifically powerful gods. To the point they'll let down so much of their ''no your worldview is definitely #correct'' and also just become something important enough to spend THAT much energy on and see if it's a thing #If you can't do that? You can't know and I can't expect you to believe me #Anyway. When I talk about gods walking the earth it's not necessarily this it's generally more they just didn't hide #when they incarnated. But also. Lmfao. Anyway. Also it's not a grand conspiracy I'm directly referencing memories of the gods I work with #because politics are so complex now they can't really be seen doing it. It's not that the ancients were sacred it's that now is politically #uh. oh boy. politically a fucking 10000 sided chess board #Including with the implication of that many sides needing 10000 colours and those being hard to tell apart for both players and opponents #Anyway. It's not the focus of this it's just me on a journey #astral diary

Chevys sim looks just like them fr and like just looking at them confuses my brain in a good way!!
