ulysses should’ve been a strippper

[so-many-ocs]

no dude it's so cool how attached you are to that character who is singled out and ostracized due to the external monstrousness that clashes with their internal spark of humanity. and i love how drawn you are to themes of horror and love, nature versus nurture, otherness, isolation, and the abject. i bet you have normal feelings about your own personhood

orpheus and eurydice as a metaphor for suicide. is that anything

[the-voidlingg]

your love dies and you need to move on but you can't live without them. you keep turning back to them, where they are. you start thinking about following them there, because you just want to see them again. you can't live without them. so you try and follow them there, thinking it'll bring them back.

then you decide to leave, and to bring them with you to your life, holding onto them but looking to the future, to the living world. but then you turn around, back to them. back to the world of the dead. and as you look back to death, their memory dies along with the life you could've lived carrying them with you. they're gone, and you're gone, and the life you had together is gone. there's only death left

Note: This is just a final concept WIP. I'll finish each card after the concept for all cards is done.

VI - the Lovers: Harrianthe Variant

First of the three variants for this card. Ianthe and Harrow have the snake from the original Rider Waite card as a symbol in here.

i’ve grown quite fond of the magnetlings

[makingtrouble]

It's my cat's birthday (anniversary of me getting him) so I told him the story of his life while petting him real good

Highlights include:

For your first two years (when you were small) you lived in a foster home with people who raised you into a very polite young man. Two is like you plus me, that's what two is.

Some people adopted you before me and they called you Timmy (which is a stupid name) and they returned your ass almost immediately because you were so annoying at that age.

Like think about how annoying you are right now at seven years old, but way worse.

I'm better than them though, I don't call you Timmy and I wore earplugs to bed for three years because you love to scream at bedtime. Earplugs are like when I roll over and go back to sleep even when you are yelling so so so loud.

I got you at a time in my life when I was really sick (being sick is like when I'm up late because I'm throwing up and you are a very handsome good boy who sits with me) and they had to put me asleep for a procedure. A procedure is like what happened to you when they put you asleep and took your balls away.

Now you've lived with me for five years. Five is like the number of toe beans on one of your feet. When I clip your nails five is when we're halfway done. But we're hopefully not even halfway done with how long we get to be together. I'm gonna have to figure out new ways to help you count.

Actually I've decided this is a poem

[arbitrarilyselected]

Actually can you imagine there being an Interior design Show that did a special episode on The Ratatosk Express???

Engineers and designers flapping about with designs and beautiful swatches of paints and fabrics for Lady Odins consideration.

And at no point does she entertain any suggestions other than her own.

"Indeed these are exceptional shades, But I find they come quite naturally within Bismuth, so I shall use that instead."

"Platinum? No no, too cold, the Ratatosk Express must be warm, welcoming! It shall be ushering in a New Age for Yggdrasil. No. Gold is the superior choice"

"The engine simply needs to be adequately fuelled. Your 'expertise' is not needed."

I wish more people got this because some ‘low-empathy’ people are the most compassionate and sympathetic in the universe, and I hate it when that’s taken to mean ‘unfeeling and probably hostile’ when nothing could be further from the truth

[quantum-jump]

Or, as my dad put it,

Sympathy: I know how you feel Empathy: I feel how you feel Compassion: is there anything I can do to help?

[paramourblessings]

Sympathy: that sucks bro empathy: I feel that compassion: want me to send you some puppy and kitten pictures to make you feel better?

[autisticcaleb]

Posts like this make me feel so much better. It always seems like society treat responses to others pain as though empathy is the most important kind. I am around 85% compassionate and this post helped me not feel like I am a monster because of that for once.
