if i made a "dagan's religion" iceberg, at the top would be daily libations, and at the bottom would be Hera = Dione or Zagreus–Adonis

had so many good memories with that cart (i hit the pen so hard that i sat coughing and dry heaving in front of some man's welcome mat store 😔 he was trying to shoo me away while i was hacking up my lungs)
tfw the piña colada cartridge you bought tastes exactly like the one you got in Greece and you're struck with profound sadness because, yea, you miss Greece, but more than anything, you miss your nearest and dearest who live there :,(

I'm not happy
I am poison in the water and unhappy

every time I see LGBTQ discourse I think about that post that said masc cis lesbians get kicked out of bathrooms as cruelly as trans people do so why the fuck are some lesbians transphobic , and I think about how homophobes won’t check for your sexuality before calling us slurs and I think about how my local dyke March considers anyone who identifies as a dyke a dyke because fuck rainbow capitalism we are here to fight for our lives and I think about how my best friends are bisexual and I think about how lesbians have been loving each other in ways that the gender binary has never been able to understand(and never will) and I think about that post that says the worst thing the right did was convince queer people other queer people were the enemy

reblogging to say i appreciate these additions & agree wholeheartedly! i am storing them in my brain to cook while i Ponder
(not meant to be mean) idrc if people are queering the gods. i think it's actually a good thing, as queer devotion helps bring us (i.e., queer people) closer to our gods...
consider its alternative: there are fascist polytheists who are trying to reinvent ancient social hierarchies & using the gods to justify it.
of all the ways we could be negotiating and engaging the gods, queering them is perhaps the most innocuous.

also consider: queering the gods includes saying things like, "Apollo protects tboys and Artemis protects tgirls" or "Ares Gynaikothinas (trans. feasted on by women) is the god of lesbians"
i would argue that these same sentiments could be conveyed by saying, "Apollon & Artemis are trans," or "Ares is butch"
