"According to the bible, an omnipotent, omniscient and omnipresent God gets angry and regrets his actions sometimes."

You can always tell when someone’s religion is politics and it’s so painful to watch. That’s not where God is, you will never find peace there

And if I don’t get 20 long hair jayvik hair pulling fics for BOTH Jayce and Viktor on my desk by next week I’m taking away everyone’s writing privileges. FEED ME.

Update: I went crazy in the tags with how this would go for them 😭😭

"this old mansion is $20 million, but it's really hard to find a buyer because four spaces inside have preservation restrictions and the rest needs extensive work to convert it back from a dormitory to a house again!"

I know, off the top of my head, at least ten museum workers who make under $35K/year who would absolutely cherish this building and pour their hearts and souls into preserving and restoring it. and they'd make sure it was done RIGHT, too. you want public access for scholars and researchers? guaranteed. they'd fall all over themselves to make it a study center or something

but. they can't do that. because it's $20 million. so it sits there waiting for that rare billionaire who actually cares about something bigger than themself, empty and unrestored

do you ever just want to Bite Things?

Okay. Since we're going over all the takes on Mr. X at this point.. What if his powers really don't have a backside. What if (the state of) his normal life is the backside.

What if his normal life is akin to that of heroes where he has to pretend to be something he's not and follow rules that the people who control his life came up with to further their own goals. What if he can only be free of other people's beliefs and expectations when he's a hero.

What if in reality he truly is like everyone else. The other heroes. The ordinary people. All those who work themselves to the bone, who are tired and overworked and sick of all the exploitation...

What if when he's in the form of the number one hero.. when he becomes the most sought after product on the hero market..

Is when he gains the freedom to truly be himself

wAiT A mINuTE- why didn't the tardis translate the sign lenguage (in The Well) ??? i don't know with like, telepathy or something. a perception filter where aliss would see what they're saying. anything.

when we get a companion that speaks with sign language in 2078, what's the tardis gonna do?? nothing???

[transbutchblues]

the gods have not forgotten you !! they hold you (and all of humanity and all animals and everything else) in their hands !! divinity is everywhere, the world is made of the divine. signs are everywhere and every time you see the moon it’s Selene, every time you walk under an oak there’s a part of Zeus in it, every time you listen to music Apollon is there with you. the gods are overwhelmingly present around us all the time and that’s why sometimes you cannot see them but they are with you, because they are life itself and you are still breathing, you are still alive, you are still with them (and when you’re not anymore you’ll stay with them, the gods of the underworld hold our dead souls) (gods never abandon us)

just finished generation crossing. it's so beautiful. curls up into a little ball on the ground and cries forever

Now it makes me kind of sad that I probably won't make much art (if any) because my self-insert lore for this was really funny

[zeravmeta]

people simply do not appreciate enough the fact that kama, above all, is kind of a hater. yeah she has an entire laundry list of problems and issues that are entirely justified for him being bitter and snarky but I wholeheartedly believe that even if she did not have a single one of those traumas that kama would undoubtedly still be a little hater.

God [...] is as much in this world as he is beyond it — [He] infinitely transcends our world, but is also totally interior to it.

reading about Salafi history is so interesting

what do you mean you were kinda cool (not fully, but definitely some based ideas) but then one dude got a little too into wahabism and so created a whole knew version of salafism which went against original salafism what

what do you mean you were originally a political movement against western imperialism and the authoritarian-esque hiearchies within sufism and spent most of your time preaching for rational discussions and scientific innovation but that was stopped cause OF ONE FRICKING DUDE

idk it's just so funny that the salafi movement's entire point was "lets do stuff from the past" which is textbook conservative but then the stuff in the past was "science is amazing and i love reframing my worldview with every new discovery" which is textbook progressive.

(I do think they're wrong btw, i just think they had a few good ideas sprinkled amongst the weird stuff)
