i was just talking about this after being wrecked by the discovery that the little elf-goblin fellows my parents/family used to tell me warnings and stories about as a little kid are regionally specific, and that you can trace people's geographic origins by what word they use for "little spirit-fellows who live in your house". no matter what you call them (domovoi, kobolde, brownies, so on); for purposes of this post henceforth "little guys"

i think one of the things that i find frustrating about like, idk, modern animist revivalist movements is that very few of them ime spend a lot of time romanticising and spiritualizing human habitation. obviously, we as a culture need to think more about protecting and defending nature/the earth/so on, but like.

if you don't have room in your heart for making up a little guy who lives in the water heater, or who squats under your stove and makes it run 15 degrees off the programmed temperature, and thinking of him with the same kind of respect/affection as you do for the spirits (or whatever) of the wildlife you interact with like.

genuinely: what are you even doing. you are removing a source of richness and fun and whimsy from your life! like, pip @creekfiend made up the concept of "little guys who live in an airport (and are the reason it's so shitty to be in an airport)" and i already like airports like 30% more just knowing it's the little airport inconvenience guys doing that.

more importantly, like. genuinely: interrogate what parts of the world seem ~rich with spiritual meaning~ to you. what parts of the world are "wild"? what does that make the rest of the world - a chore? a burden? who has to carry that burden?

we're never going to like, "return to nature", because that's nothing and the concept of untouched nature is also nothing; we're always going to have some sort of human habitation and interaction and cultivation with nature. if you can't extend grace and whimsy and genuine and sincere meaning to human habitation, including its inconveniences and annoyances, you are making your own lived experience duller!

notably, most of these kinds of little-guy-spirits historically exist in the parts of human habitation that are partially abandoned, partially removed: haylofts, inside the walls, under the house, in the bathhouse, behind the furnace... i've been thinking a lot about urban wildlife lately, and the animals who make space for themselves in and around human habitation. the "natural" and the "wild" persist inside and around the edges of the "tame" and always, always have. if you have a crawlspace, there's a little spirit who lives there and he's the reason the dryer always eats your socks.

LIVE WHIMSICALLY.

#is this a crazy person post? maybe. but also i genuinely think this. #i would love a little guy who'd eat the food in the back of my fridge before it goes off. he's real. that little guy's name? is composting. #he's slimy. #also i love the mikveh spirit who inspires women to be rude after coming home from the mikveh. LET HER SPEAK #little guys #greatest hits

i love how like nobody really talks about the possessions in ace attorney. spirit mediums and possession and lowkey magic just exists in ace attorney and nobody talks about it. there’s LOTS people make posts about that detail the craziest things abt ace attorney and nobody is like oh yah spirit mediums and possession is like a huge part of the game series btw

#everyone is just so accepting #including me whenever i talk about the plot to anyone #sometimes i hit a point where i have to explain the spirit medium stuff #and i’m like okay wait so spirit mediums r a real thing in the game #dw about it #ace attorney

Love that Izzy got in one last shot at Stede in a situation where Stede could under no circumstances retaliate and won their two season long bitch-off by then immediately and permanently peacing out

FHJY SPOILERS Episode 9 Vulture Clash:

We’re laughing and having a good time with fantasy high (jk were all stressed but we love it anyways) but I can’t stop thinking of the image of Kristen finding her teacher murdered in the forest, her attacker having made a point to banish her soul after the fact so she can’t be revived, in effect never allowing her to truly rest. The image of how upon inspecting closer, these kids find the body of their former peer, believed missing for months, left callously to rot next to the first. The image of Kristen reaching out to her Goddess of Doubt for something. Anything. To save, to spare her soul, to relieve the ground they lie on of whatever was made to taint it, and she gets nothing. Kristen haunted by the reminder, the reminder Yolonda gave her, that Kristen has to perform the miracles Cassandra cannot. Kristen unable to do anything else but start weeping.

Riz’s investigation revealing that multiple assailants killed Lucy. That the blunt force that killed Yolonda was so hard that the carbon in her blood pressurized into diamonds. Fabian says they need to get an adult. Can they please just get an adult.

#dimension 20 #fantasy high #fantasy high junior year #fhjy #fantasy high spoilers #fhjy spoilers #fantasy high junior year spoilers #losing my mind #typing this while the episode is still playing in real time and more shit keeps happening #Kristen’s miracle being that she puts Lucy and yolonda’s spirits to rest like IM SOBBINGGGGGGGGGGG #THIS EPISODE STARTES SO FUN WITH THE VUKTURE DIMESNION AND NOW I ANBFJDOSNSHDJBD

Thank you Alice Oseman)

i'm never good at summarizing things but I tried my best lol

World piercing alien laser beam vs the indomitable human spirit?

Commissioned by @jeshuamorbus-blog!

Part of Steven's skin is mildly holed out due to the laser beam, (the pink is melted off his body as it's literally him, but he is healing while taking damage.) Though you would have to zoom the image for those to be clear. I wanted it to look more violent but I do have to admit to my limits than deny+force it and delay this commission further. ( I am not joking when I say I draw slow, guys.😬) So thank you so much jeshuamorbus-blog for ordering and for the patience!

#Yes this is indeed Evangelion inspired if that's what you're thinking! 😁 #I'd like to think the indomitable human spirit is true and that gives us an ace because man we are pathetic as a species in the grand schem #of the entire universe lol #If we're not stubborn like that we're really REALLY pathetic. 😭 We are rare in the SU universe though. Like pandas. #Not trying to be edgy but I could see why the aliens would put us in a zoo. haha #connverse #Steven Quartz Universe #Connie Maheswaran #Pink Steven #my shiz #SU #steven universe #commissioned work #Oh gosh I'm trying so hard to form a thought lol #mild render commission #mild render commission + bg #Guys I'm thinking of the panda-esque analogy now. Like. White would see us as things that get in the way of real estate or smthng like that #Blue would feel pity for us and think we should just be put down. #Yellow would see the practicality as White and Blue. #Pink is the conservationist. #Eh never mind that was pretty obvious lol #anyway #This commission took me a while but the pay off is always awesome #P

To keep yourself alive AND stay sane you need an internal Senshi AND a Sam Vimes.

Senshi is there to remind you to eat, but Sam Vimes is there to parry your extended relatives rancid political takes at family events and keep you from going insane

#dungeon meshi #senshi #terry pratchett #discworld #sam vimes #i learnt firsthand that if you can't convince someone that black people are people too and killing people is generally bad #you can pivot and argue the point of 'a policeman's job is to arrest people not kill he's not a judge or an executioner' #when my father tried to talk his rancid political takes with me when i was half delirious with fever #it was like the spirit of sam vimes himself was speaking through my mouth it was amazing ive never felt so powerful before #i firmly believe this is the closest a person can get to having a jojo stan in real life #highly recommend

I've had a string of bad luck, do you have any bears that can help turn that around?

Clover is full of good luck!
