Coming into a fandom late

[baxterdamus-deactivated20130513]

Coming into a fandom early and watching it become an angry clusterfuck

[valorious]

Being in a dormant fandom that suddenly comes alive again after a new book/movie

[leatherpatches-deactivated20150]

Don’t forget about those who come in the midst of a fandom war. 

[fauxmoux]

Accuracy at its best

[street-of-mercy]

Being in a fandom and not even knowing there’s a war going on…

[my-reylo]

When You’re Not In The Fandom But You’re Nosy AF

[not-so-secret-nerd]

When you get into a fandom only to discover it’s dead

Being in a dead fandom…

[illogicalarchive]

Or being in such a tiny fandom that it feels like youre the only one

[erilias]

The accuracy hurts.

[fanfic-yes-please]

Being in a fandom that had a shit ending.

[it-is-bugs]

When you’ve been fangirling long enough, you’ve experienced all of the above.

[sweetferalbaby]

Being in a fandom meant for kids.

[teaganvamp]

This just gets better..

[knightofbloodcancer]

Fandom hell in general

[morathavictoria]

Yes.

[marvelanimelover]

This^^^ just… ALL OF THIS.

[stop-talking-babe-deactivated20]

Being in so many fandoms that you don’t even know what’s going on

[raise-cain-archived]

THIS IS THE SKULDUGGERY FUCKING PLEASANT FANDOM IN ONE POST!!

Annnnnnndddd it’s back

[ishipwhatiship247]

Being in a fandom which has so many antis

[ravenhilarious]

I’ve probably reblogged this before, but that was before these great additions.

[swanqueen-author]

Being in a fandom that actually works together

[commanderunhingedmongoose]

Why is this so true? All of it.

[pillowprincesslexa]

being in a fanbase but all your mutuals suddenly turn into Kpop blogs

[hangingfire]

I always enjoy it when a good post comes around again and has been improved by the reblogs like the years for a fine wine.

[priory-of-stars]

Being in a fandom when shit goes down and everyone has different opinions

[marianagmt]

When you are in a fandom and don’t care for others people opinion…..even if they are right…(believe me, I have met several of those)

[batbyte-alghul]

Being in a fandom you never meant to join

[tirnel-sutcliff-spears]

I love this. and it’s gotten better

[cartoonjessie]

After abandoning a fandom you’re still a little bit emotionally invested in….

*Takes deep breath*

Hades is not Hell

Hades is just where people go after they die there’s no suffering no fire it’s just where you go unless you’re really fuckin bad then they chuck you into Tartarus

Stop applying Western Christianity symbolism to a mutitheistic religion that isn’t even remotely similar I’m begging you please

[pftones3482]

Three different parts of the realm of Hades:

Fields of Punishment. For murderers, rapists, people with no good redeeming qualities, people who had gone against the gods (Sisyphus and Tantalus come to mind).

Fields of Asphodel/Asphodel Meadows. The basic crowd, the largest bunch. People who were an even mix of good and bad. Unremarkable, nothing happens there, you just wander around for eternity.

Elysium/Elysian Fields. For the pure of heart, the sacrificial ones, the people who died heroes. Within Elysium is the Isle of the Blest, or the place for those who chose rebirth and ended up in Elysium three times when they died. Very exclusive, very small, basically the equivalent of Eden.

Different myths say different things about who goes where, but those three places are always the same.

Tartarus was generally reserved for monsters and titans, though I’m sure some myths would argue for evil humans being thrown there as well.

Hades is the RULER of the Underworld. Not the Underworld itself.

[seafoamlovechild]

Reblogging because I did NOT know that rebirth was an option in Hellenismos. This is honestly pretty cool. I wonder if they had a belief in something akin to ghosts (souls trapped on Earth for one reason or another) too… Gotta read up on that.

[thedruidsforest]

I’m not Hellenic, but I’m definitely reblogging because this is so true, and applies to many other polytheistic religions as well. Hel does not equal Christian Hell, etc. As stated before, please stop applying Christian ideals to religions that are in no way similar.

[hashtagloveloses]

“Is this per sibling???” who tf cares? I’d slap all seven of mine for a cold crunchwrap supreme

[randomthingsthatilike1]

They would demand a piece of the cut but all my siblings would be insulted if I said no to this much money to slap them

[lady-olynder-mortarch-of-grief]

Honestly questions like this are always made by single children. It doesn’t matter how close you are, the answer is inevitably a resounding YES

[khangi]

What Native people say about the use of sage: you can use sage, but you cannot smudge as nothing you are doing (waving sage around) is actually smudging. Smudging is a ceremony and you are, we promise, not smudging. Please buy sage from either us, or someone who sources the sage from us. White sage may not be considered endangered by the US government but corperate sourcing is making it difficult for us to source sage for our own religious purposes. Let alone to sell it.

What white people hear: never use sage ever, don’t ever buy it, don’t own it, don’t even look at it.

Look, y’all. There’s a couple of facets to my talk today.

1) Yes! You can buy sage! You really, truly can! Buy it from either native sellers (go to a powwow! Eat our food, buy our stuff, watch some dancing!) Or buy it from a seller who sources the sage from native people. Pick one. And no, buying it from 5 Below doesn’t count.

2) you CANNOT smudge. This isn’t just you “shouldn’t”— this is a YOU ARE INCAPABLE OF SMUDGING. Waving a sage stick around your doorways IS NOT SMUDGING. It is smoke clensing. Smudging, depending on the tradition and tribe, could easily have dancing and drums involved. You, as a white person, do not have the cultural BACKGROUND to even know how it works. At all. Period.

3) please, for FUCKS SAKE, stop making posts here on tumblr where you tell other white people about cultural appropriation and what they can and cannot do. Please stop, your license has been revoked because none of you bother to get the facts right. We native people are FULLY CAPABLE OF DOING IT OURSELVES. Consider instead: a) reblogging our posts where we talk about it! We’re here! We have made posts!! b) Making a post that states what we said and then LINKS BACK TO US. Screenshot with a link if you must. Stop centering your own voices in these conversations. You are already centered in everything, stop centering yourselves in a native space.

I’m tired of this nonsense, y’all.

Thanks for coming to my TedTalk ™

Can’t agree enough with point #3 especially. That’s a big problem here on Tumblr.

i wrote a kitchen witchcraft book

i wrote and illustrated my own kitchen witchcraft book! potioncraft is an original written + hand-illustrated collection of recipes and rituals for beverages of all kinds. it features recipes for spiced hot cocoa, mulled cider, harvest sangria, and basil lemonade; it also features information on the magick of smoothies, teas, coffee and more. throughout the booklet are beautiful stippled illustrations that create a rustic witch-of-the-woods aesthetic.

the book is $8 and makes an great gift for yourself or another. buy it here. support witches!

[showerthoughtsofficial]

Avengers: Infinity War was pushed forward a week so it wouldn’t compete with Deadpool. Avengers: Endgame has been pushed forward a week so as not to complete with Detective Pikachu. Ryan Reynolds may be much more powerful than first thought.

us witches get colds too

hello greenies! i’ve been getting sicker and sicker as the seasons change and so have my fellow witches. this is a loose recipe that i use for colds and i hope it can help. sorry if the measurements aren’t exact! 

for kettle:

4 cups of water

2 lemons

chopped ginger (an inch? maybe less depending on how strong you want it)

a small handful of peppermint (i have the hands of a child)

2 sticks on cinnamon

honey (will put in at the end)

for cup

1 cup of water

¼ of an inch of ginger

a few of leaves of peppermint

half a stick ( if you have powder use like 1 tsp?) of cinnamon

honey (will put in at the end)

directions

heat up water until it comes to a nice low boil/simmer. place ginger, peppermint, and cinnamon in. 

after 4 minutes place thyme and lemon.

***for the lemon make sure you cut in half, squeeze out, and place the peels in the water (for kettles place 1 of the lemon shells in the water, for cup place a few slices). let sit for another 4 minutes. then when done put in cups!

put in as much honey as you want! (i use about a tablespoon per cup) stir clockwise and chant:

“Frost in the body, cast out.

Mother Earth bring to me health and wellness.

Bring to me the warmth of spring.

Frost in the body, cast out.”  

visualize a green light flowing into the cup as you chant and as you drink that same light travels into you. 

enjoy!!!

a masterpost

[yellowbloods-deactivated2021051]

as someone who experiences the passage of time i really relate to this

[antiandrogen]

nobody ever talks about how saying non-binary genders don’t exist is racist as fuck

[stashlecash]

How?

[antiandrogen]

many many many indigenous cultures have historically included more than two genders and to say that those genders do not exist is to say that those cultural traditions are invalid, and that only the imperialist gender binary is correct. which is racism.

THE WESTERN IDEA OF TWO GENDERS IS EXACTLY THAT

WESTERN

THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF CULTURES ACROSS THE WORLD WHO SEE GENDER AS A SPECTRUM OR OTHER FORM OUTSIDE OF TWO GENDERS

[jenroses]

Judaism has been recognizing six genders for thousands of years. 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gender_and_Judaism

SIX.

JUDAISM.

Fuck off with this “binary gender is commanded by God” bullshit. 

[poutinedragon]

^ to make that Judaism point clearer, while the field of ‘Gender and Judaism’ is a relatively new field in gender studies, gender ambiguity and androgyny have been accepted as part of Judaic law for thousands of years.

[miseducatedmelanicmuse]

Please reblog, this is so important.

[amuseinherfeels]

Is this foreal?

[miseducatedmelanicmuse]

Yes it’s a real service. I do volunteer work for a rape crisis support service in my city and texting is one of the features we provide as well. But just to boost its credibility, I tried it myself:

[espressokisses]

You can also text “Steve” to 741741 if you’re a young person of color. The website for more info is stevefund.org

My understanding is that it’s more multicultural and some folks feel more comfy with that in mind!

Henry really sNAPPED

[rrozeselavy-deactivated-deactiv]

so the thing about my family is that we have two ancestors on my dad’s side who were buried in france, where I currently live. one died in the spanish civil war, and one died prior doing…we don’t know what. but he somehow managed to get buried in père lachaise. 

so anyhow, my gran sends me a message like “pls put flowers on ur uncle samuel’s grave because he’s gone over a century with none and it will make the ghost mad if he hasn’t already” because my family spends time in europe but never long enough to go all the way to père lachaise and give ya boy samuel jr. his death rites. so im like “ok gran I can do that” bc im a good grandson and you do not fuck with gran she doesn’t DESERVE THAT 

i figure out which plot he’s on and ask someone specifically where you can find uncle samuel jr. and they tell me where and so I arrive at the junction and. 

HE GONE. 

WHERE DID YOU GO UNCLE SAMUEL. 

*celine dion’s smash hit “my heart will go on” playing in the distance* 

in other words either someone stole my entire great great uncle samuel or he has risen again, ready to party in paris for all of eternity. 

[palindrome-mystery]

You’re pretty chill about a corpse disappearing.

[rrozeselavy-deactivated-deactiv]

My guy, my dude, he’s been dead since 1851. He could be anywhere. He does what he wants.
