After much research I have decided that vampiric entities in the Americas come in three different types, based on region. If u have any questions feel free to ask.

Vampiric entities of Mexico & Southwest USA:

Ojai vampire

Chupacabra (dog-like variety)

Tlahuelpuchi

Lechuza

Vampiro de Belen

Cihuateteo

Witch-like or animalistic. Tend to feed on defenseless children or animals. Many can shapeshift, usually into animals like wolves or owls.

Vampiric entities of South America:

Pishtaco

Abchanchu

Peuchen

Chonchon

Capelobo

Patasola

Tunda

Boraro

Animalistic and monstrous, many of these are barely even humanoid, usually horiffic to look at. Tend to go after adults, and are usually malicious. Many have backwards feet.

Vampiric entities of the Atlantic Coast:

New England Vampire panic

NYC vampire sightings

Hag, Ole-Higue, & Boo Hag

Chupacabra (alien variety)

Vampiro de Moca

really past a certain point of queer theory and religious history you loop back around to "the bible doesn't say that" but like with an understanding of historical contexts and stuff.

being gay is fine regardless of what any religious text says, i understand the sentiment but past a point it's stupid and makes people really annoyingly wrong about bible translation because they saw one tumblr post and think "owning conservatives with their own logic" is more important than being right

I think we non-Catholics are really missing out on the idea of saints. What a galaxy-brain idea. Not gods, but little authorities to consult on even the most niche topics. Like a bureaucracy of faith. Praying to the almighty Creator feels overwhelming, but my favorite fifth-century Greek bachelor just gets me.

Hi, I just came across this post on this lovely app and shared it in a discord and we were wondering if it would qualify as false idolatry? Could we get your expert's point of view ?

Thank you

(love your blog)

Without knowing the specifics I can only guess. However, AI generated content in general is not allowed because it removes one from the act of creation and the right to labor.

The better question to ask is what’s the point going to a church where the sermons and lessons are not written by anyone?

No matter what the situation is, never let your emotions overtake you. Pause, pray and let God guide you.

saw "the bible supports trans people because eve was made from a male rib and "transitioned" into a woman" as an ~epic dunk on the conservatives~ and just sorta had to sit there trying not to yell at that person.

I'm being so mature and not bitching about exactly how stupid (and frankly transmisogynistic) that is but i will at least say that reinterpreting bible passages to be pro LGBT "to own conservatives" really is one of the most boring tired things ever

*yelling over the crowd* it's a historical text

Just discovered @narcissistcookbook. Excellent artist, I'm shocked he's not more popular on Tumblr, etc., but I was so distracted during Apple. I couldn't listen to it without thinking about Genesis 3:22-23:

And God said, “Now that humankind has become like any of us, knowing good and bad, what if one should stretch out a hand and take also from the tree of life and eat, and live forever!” So God banished humankind from the garden of Eden, to till the humus from which it was taken

So, Apple is from the POV of the snake, I believe. And what God said to Adam & Eve & the snake isn't necessarily the same as what God said to Godself.

It just adds another level of complexity, I think, if people are going to die anyway, and I couldn't stop thinking about it.

I am free. I am alive. I am a Soul who wants to see the world the way it is and not they want us to believe it is. I have the right to make my choice and I am making it. No trends, no fake ideals, no status. I am tired of playing those games and I am sorry to see how most of us are still sleeping. Social media... Who has the right to direct us, forcing us to live a life that is not ours? Why true artists who have what to say are left behind because they will never do things that are against their conscience and humanness? In this world of distorted mirrors, I refuse to believe that those are the norms of a modern illusion we all call... Life. Please wake me up. 🙏🏻✨🤌🏻🕉️
