We got daddy issues

Daddy issues

Chaos junkie

Mommy issues

More daddy issues

Obnoxious asshole issues

Then you… you seem kind of weirdly self-actualised

people will say religion oppresses women because they cannot comprehend a woman being liberated without being sexualized. They don’t understand the idea of a woman finding freedom outside of men’s desire for her, instead of leaning into it.

A woman veiling or wearing a hijab or mitpahat, or any kind of modesty, isn’t men oppressing her, it’s her finding value and freedom in God, not men. God sees the inherent value of her outside of what she can give to men.

Stop telling women they are oppressed by their religion.

You knew Pootie wouldn't like it. Yeah, of course I did. But you knew that too, right? You're always three steps ahead.

Watching shows like Danny Phantom, Gravity Falls or Dead End: Paranormal Park, there's something that kinda bothers me

It's canon that characters are religious, we've see christian, jewish and muslim characters

And I really want to ask them, what the hell?

It's just really weird if you ask me

Like, you've seen what happens to souls after death, you know the supernatural forces that govern the universe, you've literal met other gods

I'm not a believer, but if I were a christian and I would see the Ghost Zone or met Axolotl, I'd smash the nearest cross on the ground and eat a rump steak every Friday just out of spite

I get it's already risky to mention real religions in american cartoons, but still

Am I the only one who thinks it would be interesting to see a cartoon dealing with the supernatural and seeing a formerly religious character rethink their life after finding out that their believes are all bogus?

"It smells like her..."

Um something something it's cold outside and you didn't bring a jacket so your crush lets you borrow theirs bc they don't want you to tough it out. Said jacket belongs to @thelonelyshore-if's Jay!

Thank you @s-4-fira for the commission! Amazing job at capturing how shy and awkward Abraham can get. She's a mess.

Unrelated (really, unrelated), but it's interesting that there is a conception that the Greek Gods (as in the Olympians and such) are considered the heritage of our current Western culture, when they never remained as static and "canonical" as most Greek mythology fans seem to believe. During the Hellenistic period, as Greek culture spread through Alexander's conquests and Greek colonizations the gods and their importance varied. It's really interesting that as big empires with multicultural populations (Hellenistic Egypt, the Romans) arose, there also arose "universal" gods, like Serapis and the spread of Hellenic philosophy. And then with the Romans who weren't exactly Hellenistic, but they continued these dynamics with the Interpretatio Graeca, mystery cults, the interaction with Zoroastrian beliefs. And of course, the rise of Christianity at the end of this period.

And I'm not saying this in the "the Romans were tolerant" sense, but as how religion evolved and adapted as empires spread.

Of course, I'm mostly talking in a religious sense here, as in people actually worshipping the gods. In the sense that they are "myths" and fables, that could be another way of looking at them, but that mostly, I think, dates from the interest on Grecorroman culture from the Renaissance onwards. The Middle Ages weren't as influenced by Hellenism.

Prof. Ronen: That's fair.

Seward: Why on Earth are you laughing? After a funeral?

Van Helsing, monologuing: Ah, you don't comprehend, friend John. See, when King Laugh finds good corn--

Seward, sticking fingers in ears: Never mind-- forget it! I can't hear you! La la la la la!

Van Helsing is like that weird uncle that doesn't know how to tell a story without spending ten minutes walking around the point
