I know I don't rant on here too much, or talk on here, really, but I have to scream about this. I was scrolling through my recommended articles just now, and this popped up.
Now, while I do not pray to Ares nor do I particularly enjoy his mythology, I know that as a legitimate deity, he is truly a wonderful deity. He is a protector of women, he is a defender of rape, domestic violence, and war victims, and so much others. He has so many myths in which he helps people, and honestly, he and Aphrodite are pretty strong, too.
He, much like Hades or Thanatos, does not deserve to be vilified because of fictional media! I enjoy participating in fandom as much as anyone, and I'm a very big fan of Percy Jackson, but Ares is not a villain, and for this article to come not from a fandom site, but an at least semi academic site, is very upsetting.
I just had to get that out of my system, sorry
A phrase that’s always stuck with me was my friend Lia way back in middle school talking about sleeping too close to someone else. It was a big negative for her when she thought about cuddling, “You’re just breathing in their out air.”
I cannot explain why those words carved themselves deeply across my brain but they did.
When I’m too close to people and I can feel their breath I’ll deliberately breathe out while thinking, I don’t want your out air.
It is an act of love for me to be close enough to someone that I don’t mind breathing in their out air.
Every person I have told this phrase to has come back and informed me later that it lodged deeply into their psyche too. So here you go, Tumblr. Out air. You get to think about it now, too.
Because this is a trend on tw*tter I hopped on the bandwagon
I'm both lol 😭
An absurd insult comprised of one expletive/vulgarity and one non-sequitur, usually one of them single-syllable and the other double, frequently with the two components sharing vowels. Examples: "shitgibbon", "ratbastard", "douchecanoe", "cockwaffle", "jizzbiscuit", "fartshark", "snotgasket", &c.

Alright, attempt #2:
We got a three-way tie last time, so I'm hoping this one is gonna gain a bit more traction! So, for the second time: who do you all want to see first?

“Made ya look!”
Ok, so I know it's not my usual fair, but I just got my Hestia statue for my Altar, and I'm really really happy 😁 she actually came in, I think, a little earlier than expected, which is great 👍
For reference, this is what my Altar now looks like!
So, the statue is pretty obvious, it's definitely the only statue there so far, and it's in praise of Hestia, goddess of the Hearth. Also for Hestia is the big ass painting(made by one of my absolute best friends in the world who is unfortunately not on this app but made it for my birthday 'cause she's awesome like that!!!), and then a couple of basily, minty smells for the wax melter. I also have a more official altar for Hestia that sits on the mantle piece; it's a little mini forest candleholder thing that I made a while ago with a candle that really just reminds me of Her.
The car is for Hermes, god of Messengers and Thieves. It's mainly there because He helps me a lot when I'm driving, and it felt fitting, but there's also a sticker with the number 4 on it(his sacred number) and four flowers that seemed like his vibe. There's also a strawberry because it's one of his sacred foods, but low-key I always forget that, even though I'm constantly eating strawberries 😂 He has some wax scents, but not too many, just because there weren't that many that spoke to me for him.
Right now, all I have for Apollo is a sun sticker with seven crows(both his sacred number and his sacred bird. Fun fact about that, when I was looking for stickers to decorate the altar with, there were exactly seven crows, and I think that's pretty cool), a few scents(mainly summery fresh ones, right now I have a honeysuckle scent that just really spoke to me.), and a ring I got from my grandmother that isn't shown.
I do have a few items such as the ring holder, the smaller painting (made by the same girl who did the big one), and the heart that just seemed to fit. I don't directly pray to any deities that find those items symbolic, but it couldn't hurt to keep them handy, right?
Anyways, I have a bracelet for Hermes coming in the mail that's supposed to come soon, so maybe I'll post that, too. Have a good day!

Not sure what fandom to write for... Need to write a short fanfic
they should invent a brain that doesn’t whisper bad things to you
just your friendly neighborhood gremlin probably won't post too much, just because I don't really know what I have to offer to the platform. my goal is to be as chaotic and funny as possible, while still spreading knowledge about my special interests. Said interests include, but are not limited to: The Scarlet Witch, Young Avengers, Keeper of the Lost Cities, words, etymology, random knowledge that I don't know what to do with, wonder woman, Hellenistic Polytheism, writing, art, and other things that relate to the above topics please message me if you have any questions about the above topics, or wish to be friends! 😃❤️ thanks, Seraphina ❤️
