Re: Dionysus being a hermaphrodite - I'm not sure if I'm missing some context because I did take a look at the said Orphic hymn

"Call Thesmophorus, spermatic God [Dionysos], of various names, who bears the leafy rod:

Mises [Misa], ineffable, pure, sacred queen, two-fold Iacchus, male and female seen"

Does it seem to be implying that Misa is supposed to be the female form of Dionysus? Isn't it more probable that Misa is the female form of Iacchus, a separate divinity (but sometimes identified with a few other gods)?

Hi! I'm sorry it took me a while to answer. Asks are kinda piling up and I'm right in the middle of exams 🥲. If you're waiting to have a question answered, I'm sorry if it takes a while or if I'm not able to get to all of them.

I find the Orphic Hymns to be such a headache, because they differ so much depending on the translation (specially in regards to punctuation, which changes the entire meaning):

Call Thesmophorus, spermatic God, of various names, who bears the leafy rod: [colon] Mises, ineffable, pure, sacred queen, two-fold Iacchus, male and female seen: Illustr'ous, whether to rejoice is thine in incense offer'd, in the fane divine; Or if in Phrygia most thy soul delights, performing with thy mother sacred rites (...) – Thomas Taylor (1792)

I call upon law-giving Dionysus who carries the fennel stalk, unforgettable and many-named seed of Eubouleus, and upon holy, sacred and ineffable queen Mise, whose two-fold nature is male and female. [Full stop] As redeeming Iacchos, I summon you lord, whether you delight in your fragrant temple At Eleusis, or with the Mother you partake of mystic rites in Phrygia (...) – again Apostolos N. Athanassakis (1977)

I call upon law-giving Dionysos, who carried the fennel stalk, unforgettable and many-named seed of Eubouleus, [comma] I call upon the sacred and holy, upon the ineffable queen Mise, whose twofold nature is male and female. [Full stop] Redeeming Iacchos, lord, I summon you, whether you delight in Eleusis in your fragrant temple, or with Mother you partake of mystic rites in Phrygia (...) – Apostolos N. Athanassakis and Benjamin M. Wolkow (2013)

I call on law-giving Dionysos, who bears the fennel wand, much remembered and many-titled seed of Eubouleus and on the holy, sacred, queen Mise, ineffable, with two natures, female and male, the liberating Iakchos. Whether you rejoice in your perfumed temple in Eleusis, or whether you perform your mysteries in Phrygia with the Mother (...) – Patrick Dunn (2018)

As you say Iacchos was frequently a separate deity, but his identification with Dionysos was also quite commonplace. Considering that when several names are listed together in the other hymns they're referring to a single invoked deity (and the orphic obsession of syncretising anyone and everyone with everything and their grandma), it's most likely that Dionysos, Mise and Iacchos are considered the same entity in this context.

Mise is an obscure figure to say the least. Appart from her hymn we only have (as far as I'm aware):

A dictionary entry in Hesychios s.v. [Μισατίς] Μίση: "One of those next to the Mother, whom they also swear by". Radcliffe Edmonds' Redefining Orphism would also see a reference to her in the entry for μισήτην: "They call misētēn the ones who are insatiable; 'and the misētēn women will use dildos' (Cratinus, fr. 316), and some simply call 'misēton' the one who is insatiable for food."

A reference in Herodas Mimes 1.56 that mentions a boy who spies a girl "at the Descent of Mise", referring to a festival or another cultic context.

Two inscriptions in Pergamon, one of which (IJSK 5.38) is the dedication of an altar "to Mise Kore" by the priestess Anthis.

An Orphic fr. 391 mentions Dysaules and Baubo as parents to Protonoe and Nisa. Some would correct the last name to Misa.

I've seen theories that range from claiming she's originally an Anatolian goddess, to claims that she's not a specific entity, but a generic divine stand in for the initiates (μῠ́στης).

Frankly I've become thoroughly annoyed with Orphism. You can't say you're a proper polytheistic religion if you claim that Nyx is also Aphrodite who is also Demeter who is also Gaia who is also Hestia who is also Rhea who is also Isis who is also Selene (who is also Hekate who is also Melinoe) who is also Artemis (who is also Prothyraia who is also Eileithyia who is also Hera) who is also Persephone who is also Mise who is also Iacchos who is also Osiris who is also Adonis who is also Attis who is also Dionysos who is also Phanes who is also Physis who is also Erikepaios who is also Priapos who is also Eros who is also Metis who is also Zeus (who is also Eubouleus who is also Hades who is also Poseidon) who is also Helios who is also Apollo who is also Paian who is also Asklepios who is also Herakles who is also Chronos who is also Kronos, and everybody's also everybody's father and mother and sister and son, and to be honest it all makes me wish that the cosmic egg had never been hatched and I'm glad that Orpheus got torn to pieces.

Selene, Iacchus, and Mise.

I've had this idea for a while now of depicting torches as kind of lightsaber weapons... Well, that'll be sure to drive away the evil spectres lurking in the night.

nagyon jó lett a mai nap

délelőtt kipihenten ébredtem. lustálkodtam, de már akkor éreztem, hogy készen állok misére menni. el is mentem és rögtön a gyóntatás helyére álltam. kimaradt legalább egy hónap és itt volt a heti abortuszos történet, volt mit rendezni. jó volt, hogy a pap nem sablont nyomott és nem is tolta túl, hogy mekkora gyilkos vagyok. a misén is elvoltam, nem akasztott ki a prédikáció sem

szerettem volna ma jó dolgokat csinálni, már itthon kinéztem, mikor kezdődik egy film a moziban. volt még időm, ami alatt nézelődtem, kávéztam, vettem pár dolgot

ezeket majd használni is szeretném

a mozi nagyon jó volt. egy percig sem gondolkodtam azon, milyen drága, csak élveztem a filmet. az első rész fontos számomra, mert különleges helyen szoktuk nézni, rég vágytam rá, hogy megnézzem a második részt. közben sokat gondoltam arra, tényleg lesz-e keresztgyerekem és ha igen, akkor jön-e velem moziba és mellette lehetek-e kamaszkorában

mozi után még elmentem a kedvenc parkomba olvasni. nem maradtam nagyon sokáig, mert fura emberek kezdtek el gyülekezni. de ezzel lett kerek a mai nap

a mai nap azért volt jó, mert tartalmas volt. sok dolgot csináltam, de ennél sokkal fontosabb számomra, hogy helyreállt a világom rendje azzal, hogy elmentem misére. és jó, hogy ezt nem kényszerből tettem meg, hanem belső vágyból. eszembe jutott ma sok jó élmény, például az, mikor anyával tegnap lehetett beszélgetni arról, hogy lehet, hogy keresztszülő leszek. végre tényleg párbeszéd volt

az kicsit nehéz volt, hogy olyan érzésem volt, mintha elvonásban lennék. szerintem nem vettem be tegnap este a második gyógyszerem. ez már lefekvéskor megfogalmazódott bennem, de nem akartam bevenni, nehogy dupla adag legyen. kellemetlen volt, de nem kétségbeejtő

éjjel azt álmodtam, hogy egy lakóm elindult, tudtam, hogy meg akar halni, de nem értem utol. bele is fulladt a vízbe, én még csak lábszárközépig voltam a vízben. nehéz volt, hogy meghalt. nem vádolt senki, amiért nem voltam eléggé gyors, de talán indult vizsgálat. szerettem volna szólni az öccsének, de nem volt meg a száma és a kollégák nem tudták megadni. hosszan próbálkoztam megszerezni és közben telt az idő, illetlen volt már telefonálni. nagyon megviselt, nagyon zaklatottan ébredtem meg, tele rossz érzéssel

tegnap azt álmodtam, hogy doktori védésre mentem mint bíráló. rajtam volt valami alkalmi ruha. késtünk a bevonulással, de aztán még fennakadás volt, hogy a bizottság több tagjának pisilnie kellett. nekem is. álmodtam mindenféle wc-ket. egy végre kulturált volt, ott elővettem a péniszemet, amiből iszonyat sok húgy távozott, aztán ott maradt egy hosszú-hosszú ráncos és üres slagszerű pénisz, ami nem fért már be a helyére

I need there to be some simple information on what I'm meant to do about being diagnosed with PCOS that isn't just telling me about how to still get pregnant or that my weight is disgusting.

Dionysus and his divine Thiasos. From left to right:

Hephaestus, Mise, Herakles, Dionysus, Eubuleus, Hekate, Iacchus.

This is how they'll appear in Awakening of Orpheus (yes I redesigned Herakles again :P).
