Truly I am becoming so sick of people treating my religion like a fun quirky irl Percy Jackson. (I've ALWAYS been sick of it but oh my gods)

This is a REAL AND ANCIENT RELIGION. These are GODS. Not your silly best friends that are just constantly chilling around you. The lack of respect towards their divinity and weird mortalization of them I've seen in some spaces (not as much on Tumblr but tiktok and SEVERAL discord servers I'm in) is so uncomfortable and angering.

The prevalence of "deity identification spreads" as if they're trying to figure out their godly parent in PJO, the constant "what god is reaching out to me?" questions I see from beginners who barely even KNOW hellenic polytheism, and the constant treatment of the Theoi as fun friends that just sit around on altars at someone's every beck and call. It's so upsetting? It's so uncomfortable?

Yes, the gods love us. Of course, they care for us. But where is the respect? Where is your kharis? How can they love you when they don't even know you? And how can you claim to love Them when you hardly know Them?

You MUST research in this religion. There are no cutting corners. You must must MUST learn. Because without understanding how sacred the practices are and their significance of them to their time and who these gods truly were, you run DANGEROUSLY close to religious and cultural appropriation.

The idea that Kaeya witnessed the fall of Khaenri'ah is so uninteresting to me. I find him learning about it second hand and piecing together clues about his ancestry and past to me far more interesting. That the only Khaenri'ah he knew was a Khaenri'ah in ruins if even that. Having to go through that sort of generational trauma. I find it to be a more interesting explanation than he's actually secretly 500+ years old because of abyss fuckery. There's enough characters who are 500+ years old, Kaeya doesn't need to be one of them imo

i think being alive is a lot like learning how to cook for the first time while living alone. you fail and make mistakes a bunch because you don't understand what your doing. you take advice from directions but you dont think it looks the best. you try and make improvements slowly, and its fun because its all so new and you feel proud when you finally figure it out but the journey is a lot like living. its the journey of things and realizing you can do it once you build your own skillset to substitute your confidence in the lack of understanding. you innovate your goals and take those scary risks but eventually with all the failures and "not turning out how its supposed to" you learn to enjoy the journey. it doesnt matter as long as it tastes good and it fulfills you.

Shouting this into the void, but I just went off on my dad and it felt so fucking good.

Was it dumb? Yeah. Did it feel good? Hell yeah.

It's been years in the making. He's such a piece of shit.

I'm tired of pretending that my feelings don't matter.

Putting up and enforcing boundaries is a good (and incredibly hard) thing to do...but fuck dude, does it just make some ppl cut themselves out of your life (family included) bc you dare have boundaries and speak up for yourself for once (even though you're scared af to do so)

another thing i blame panellhnies for is the emetophobia. like yeah i had it before but it became so much worse after. bc from the day i enrolled at prepping school in the summer before 11th grade until after i left from school after the last exam i felt sick almost every single day because of the stress and i had to adjust what i ate, when i ate, where i was sitting, how i was sleeping and more and after the exams were over these behaviors and the anxieties about them had stuck and they're still here and instead of getting better it might be getting worse

[yeah--maybe]

Today might be the day I accidentally ask friends how they stay alive. Just because it's all my brain can conjure up.

Hoping extra caffeine gets my brain in a better brain.
