it's really weird having a first dog be blind and then getting a second who can see...like how was I supposed to be prepared for this.

this creature can perceive when I put the treats up on the high shelf. or when I hide stuff behind my back. I can't fool her!! she's always watching me and she shouldn't have this much knowledge!!!

I walk around at night and I shine my flash light directly into her eyes and I'll just be standing there staring at her weird blue orbs for like 5 seconds until I realize it's probably extremely annoying to her, because she has eyes!! I'll turn on the light in the room and she gruffs and grumbles like ?? oh right!! light wakes you up!! the fuck??

the absolutely wild implication of this, that god was previously playing fast and loose with his own acts of good and evil but then had to start being considerate about what he was doing because now mankind is watching and we know.

God's worst mistake was opening our eyes and mouths, for now we can turn to him and name his sins

‘god knows all of your ugliness,’ my mother says, ‘and loves you despite.’

‘is that supposed to make me feel loved?’ i reply. ‘i am still ugly. he is still god.’

I was drowning in the world of problems and worries, but one night the Virgin sent me a wonderful dream in which I flew through the sky filled with millions of stars guided by two little angels. Before this starry immensity I saw that my problems weren’t so big. So now I’m living my life with much more optimism and serenity. I thank the Virgin of the Rosary.

probably the first generation angels would be like first-gen immigrants, who have a hard time adjusting to human culture and always referring to old-world traditions of total obedience and smiting and their proud culture of fratricide. the second-gen would grow up with only the stories, which they think about with a strange mix of amusement, disbelief and horror, because their parents are peculiar but kinda very frightening sometimes, you know? third-gen would take the stories less seriously, because didn’t grandpa and grandma go crazy towards the end, screaming about fire and destruction and the apocalypse that was supposed to happen years and years ago? a fourth-gen kid would scoff at the stories and say, “nah, i don’t believe in angels.”
