So I just wanted to inform people that if you go to the temple to Apollo at Delphi where the oracle at Delphi was situated there are cats, like everywhere and they are so placid I spent most of my time there with a kitten in my arms, Greece is honestly a great place for cats and if anybody is going the or near there and likes cats you should really go, not only is it a beautiful historical place it’s also full of cute fluffy balls of fun

[godbewithyouihavedone]

I have been and I can confirm, also they are super friendly, vs Athens street cats who don’t want you to even look at them.

Also been, can also confirm that the cats at Delphi are incredibly friendly.

So…..Apollo is a cat person and Athena is a dog person…..

Self-portrait by Vincent van Gogh, 1887, Museum of the Netherlands

Vincent moved to Paris in 1886, after hearing from his brother Theo about the new, colourful style of French painting. Wasting no time, he tried it out in several self-portraits. He did this mostly to avoid having to pay for a model. Using rhythmic brushstrokes in striking colours, he portrayed himself here as a fashionably dressed Parisian.

i hate how percy jackson fans keep taking over every tag us hellenistics create…every single time without fail…and it’s clear we create the tag for our gods not the books characters…like apollo(deity) has been taken over recently..i’m livid bc how rude do you have to be to continuously take something sacred to us and make it a fandom…are you telling me you can’t just tag it with something as simple as “pj apollo” instead i dunno man i’m just upset

[my-name-is-apollo]

Yeah, something I’ve noticed recently….. Pjo content are being tagged like apollo*, hermes*, etc. Don’t do that, it’s a tag Hellenists use. Why, I’ve even seen pjo posts being tagged “hellenism”……Pjo fandom please don’t do that. You’ve already disrespected the beliefs of Hellenists a lot of times and it’s really rude. At least leave the tags lol

[oracleofthehoneycomb-deactivate]

Don’t.

Fucking.

Do it.

Personally I feel this goes for roleplayers + godkin as well. If you wanna do that stuff in your own community then fine, I can’t stop you, but stay out of ours. We don’t need you coming over here telling us how to ‘worship’ you.

And for the most part y’all seem to stay away, that’s good, but some of y’all keep jumping into our ask boxes or onto our posts talkin bout

(godkin): ‘that’s not how you worship me. I don’t like that as an offering. You should do this for when you worship me.’

Or roleplayers acting like ‘oh yeah I’m Aphrod*te I’m a total slut.’ ‘I’m Z*us I’m gonna go cheat on H*ra cause I can’t keep my dick in my pants’ (names censored because I don’t want my Gods names connected to that kind of language.)

Do y’all not understand how insulting and offensive that behavior is to us, especially when doing it on our religious posts and blogs??

[my-caduceus]

Honestly a lot of the tags most of us hellenic polytheists are using are full of memes and PJ references... so I appreciate this post a lot. Please and thank you for thinking of those of us who worship and go to Greek Gods. It would be nice to have separate tags for once.
