29/f - cowboy butts drive me nuts

29f, czech-american, slavic pagan larper

things you will see here:

slavic/germanic/celtic cultures, folk religions, anthropology, baking/cooking, nature/hiking, "domestic" hobbies, gardening, healthy living, positive/encouraging motherhood content, some shitposting, lots and lots and lots of personal opinions on various topics

currently in my era of doing lots of arts and crafts projects as well as kitchen experiments and learning about slavic and germanic paganism, as well as trying to further deconstruct my former christian beliefs, so those are particularly big themes

you will get blocked if you are a bully or post holier-than-thou purity spiraling nonsense

"no the bread and wine turns into actual literal flesh and blood and it just tastes and looks like bread and wine and no you can't say it's just a metaphor because that's a heresy, it's literally flesh and blood and god said you have to eat it and it'll give you superpowers"

cannot believe i did this for a decade

The actual Tolkien quote is “The Shadow that bred them can only mock, it cannot make: not real new things of its own.”

all of the faggotsphere is obessesed with humbling women whether it's about looks, weight, age, being a single parent, etc. because deep down they are extremely jealous of women's ability to be everything they deem as undesirable and still get more attention and dates than the average man just by virtue of being a woman lmao. it is all either incels that have shattered self esteem or older divorced men that were left in the dust by their ex wives

yep like i have two kids and am still getting my life together and i have no shortage of male attention 😅 i dunno what really motivates them, i've noticed with both sides of the gender wars it's often someone with a very big wound caused by the opposite sex, whether it's a parent or a partner or what. and they cope by going online and getting sucked into bizarre rabbit holes that make it easy to point a finger at whoever hurt them and it's cathartic to be able to blame society, half of humanity, etc for whatever caused it. otoh you also have radfems talking about some "every woman's son is her potential rapist" and other schizo stuff, so it really does get crazy on both sides. fortunately you almost never run into this in real life unless you're like at a convert heavy orthodox church or something

I was learning about Celtic paganism (I am part Irish) out of boredom and I think the concept of Goddesses before patriarchal religions took over is so interesting. It's also strange how the ancient Sumerian Goddess Inanna was called the Queen of Heaven just like Mary and a lot of the most famous biblical stories have exact parallels to ancient pre-Christian religions. Makes you think

the god of the abrahamic religions comes from one or two gods from the canaanite pantheon being syncretized together so it kinda makes sense, while they weren't genetically the same they did interact a lot which lends itself to more syncretism. i'm not sure where i stand on the exact cutoff line for where pagan religions begin and end (for example - are the slavic and pagan gods the same and there's really only an "indo-european paganism", or are they different and always have been? i have gotten and appreciated many answers about this but it's much to think about!) but ironically abrahamic religions are just an extension of canaanite paganism despite how all of them bitch and moan about pagans constantly lol

and i can't speak for anything outside of the slavic/germanic/celtic sphere (and even within it i can't speak too much lol) but for the most part, from what i know, women were given a completely equal status as men even if there were still recognized gender roles that stemmed from our biology

What does Ancestor Worship mean in practice?

i appreciate you thinking i am qualified to answer this question but i recommend reaching out to a person who has read more books than me, lol

[moonspell-x]

they should rename iceland to niceland

i don't want to be this emotional and sensitive for the rest of my life and i don't know how to change it

i cannot get into the details of the cases but whenever a woman does something profoundly evil to her kids, i think every woman going "uhm akshually! she couldn't help it because postpartum depression!" needs to be on a list and should deadass have her own kids taken away before she also does something unthinkable because she's a widdle bit sad and somehow that's an excuse. the list should be publicly searchable and considered as serious as the sex offender registry (in case you hire one of these psychos as a babysitter or perhaps they're your kid's teacher). genuinely guts me when i see these horrific comments and the evil bitch has pictures with kids on her profile

no debating me. i'm right

[moonspell-x]

what are your thoughts on the anti dating single moms thing that's prevalent in the manosphere?

those men would make absolutely horrific and potentially abusive husbands and stepfathers so it's good they're staying away, i just wish they wouldn't go out of their way to harass woman strangers about it. i don't find myself attracted to many types of people either but i don't bitch and moan about it 24/7
