i like to think they actually change how they look every rift event come, i mean it would get boring to wear the same things for so long, and it does look like Thespius can Wear other clothes after all, so Mitter didnt ALWAYS wear the black ensemble, honestly she was barely covered when she first ascended, only covered by a funerary cloth.

We need more of Binghe, in any variant of him in a world where Shen yuan is known to at least once have been Shen yuan, to be jealous of hatsune miku

I’ve seen it in a few fics and it’s the best thing ever

Especially in binghe travels to modern world to find Shen yuan, coz sometimes it’ll look a lil something like this…

“Binghe- *sigh* hatsune miku is. not. real.”

“I wasn’t real either… a’yuan… what if hatsune miku where to get a demonic sword, become ruler of the 3 realms, discover how to enter other dimensions, travel to find you, and then steal you from me?”

Shen yuan: 😃

It's awesome how Zoroastrianism basically solved the Problem of Evil several centuries before Christ was even born. Like it's not that hard to say "Our god isn't all powerful, but he's still strong and awesome as fuck so you should worship him. Still he has his limits and he's got a pretty strong enemy, so you can't blame him for all the bad stuff in the world". Meanwhile Christians really insist on God being omnipotent as well as omniscient and omnibenevolent, so they're constantly doing insane mental gymnastics and/or falling back on thoughtless cliches ("uhhhhh free will! original sin! god is unknowable!") in order to answer the sort of question that five year olds ask about "why's there so many unfairly or pointlessly bad things in the world".

Plus it means really stupid questions become genuine theological concerns: "If God is all powerful could he make a boulder so heavy that he couldn't lift it?" feels like something you'd see in a novelty riddle book and yet serious theologies have had to have whole debates over it. Like overall, the sticking insistence on Omnipotence has to be among the Jesus Fandom's most embarrassing failures

Okay, Saint Bernard is very interesting. When we talk about motivations for desiring redemption, I often hear people talk about thinking about hell and experiencing fear of God (because we could go there), or thinking about heaven and experiencing affection for God (because He seeks to welcome us there). But Bernard flips these motivations around. He seems to be operating under the assumption that thinking about heaven should elicit a sense of fear of God (because we are approaching Majesty and Sovereign Power Himself, and we really, really need to get our act together), while thinking about hell should elicit a sense of affection for God (because these are the very depths to which God entered and rescued us from). And again, that's just kinda neat.

Finding Strength in the Hills: A Guide to Psalm 121:1-2

Imagine you're on a long, challenging journey, facing countless obstacles and uncertainties. Where do you turn for help? For many Christians, the answer lies in a powerful and timeless passage from the Bible: Psalm 121:1-2. These verses remind us to look beyond our immediate troubles and focus on the ultimate source of strength and guidance—our Creator.

Lifting Our Eyes to the Hills

When the Psalmist says, "I will lift my eyes to the hills," he's not just talking about ordinary hills. He's referring to the mountains that symbolize the divine realm, where God's power and presence are palpable. Lifting our eyes is more than just a physical gesture; it's a metaphor for shifting our focus from the earthly troubles that often overwhelm us to the heavenly aid that can rescue us.

Acknowledging God's Omnipotence

The question "From whence cometh my help?" is quickly followed by a bold declaration: "My help cometh from the LORD, which made heaven and earth." Here lies the core of this passage's power. It reminds us that our help comes from the Creator who made the heavens and the earth. This is no ordinary helper; this is the all-powerful God with unlimited resources and power.

Building Confidence and Humility

Understanding that our help comes from such a mighty God builds incredible confidence in His ability to assist us in any situation. It's almost humorous to think that if God can create the entire universe, He can handle our everyday problems. This realization fosters humility, reminding us that our strength and wisdom are not enough to navigate life's challenges independently. Instead, we must depend on God, trusting His guidance and provision.

A Deeper Relationship with God

We foster a deeper relationship with Him by lifting our eyes to the hills and acknowledging God's omnipotence. This truth can transform how we navigate daily life. It encourages us to seek God's help in all our lives, whether facing minor annoyances or significant crises. When we trust in God's provision and guidance, we experience His presence more profoundly, feeling His hand at every step of our journey.

Practical Application

So, how can we apply this to our daily lives? Here are a few tips:

Shift Your Focus

When you feel overwhelmed, take a moment to "lift your eyes to the hills" and reflect on God's power and presence.

Depend on God

Recognize that your strength and wisdom are limited and that genuine help comes from God.

Trust in His Guidance

Have faith that God is always watching over you, guiding you through the ups and downs of life.

In a world filled with uncertainties and challenges, Psalm 121:1-2 serves as a powerful reminder of where our true strength lies. We build confidence, humility, and a deeper relationship with Him by lifting our eyes to the hills and acknowledging God's omnipotence. This truth can transform how we face life's challenges, helping us to trust more fully in God's guidance and provision.

god it's still so funny to me ouma had that dumb little pretentious joker speech in trial 2 about getting maki and kaito to "fight for their lives" by making them argue against each other to decide the culprit and then neither of them ended up being the killer.

idk when people decided that trying to make peace with villains or the power of friendship was a steven universe only “problem”.

first off, a LOT of protagonists, especially kid protagonists, are like this. kids shows are less likely to just say “yeah, let’s murder this guy”. just look at all the anime where each villain of the week gets redeemed and joins the heroes. this is such a common trope but for some reason, people decided that steven universe was the only show that does this and therefore should burn in hell.

secondly, steven isn’t even that forgiving. people seriously exaggerate shit and act like he went around pleading to everyone and trying to be their friend. he didn’t even forgive the diamonds, they were just too powerful for him to kill. and he has definitely thrown hands with other antagonists when he needed to.

also, he was a fucking child. do you really expect children to know how to handle largescale issues like war? y’all want the show to be realistic but you don’t take into consideration that it’s crazy to put so much pressure on a 14 year old.

A rumor starts that max is like secretly a twitch streamer or something cause he keeps talking about and to a "chat" randomly during the day but that's just what he calls the audience/watchers

Philemon doesn't really get mentioned either, and the butterfly iconography is reconnected to be Lavenza iirc. Like, we don't need Philemon being a story presence either, but it was nice to know that p3 and 4's butterflies were Philemon watching over the protags.
