can i get a hell yeah for my mentally ill/lgbt kids who turned to this site at a very young age because we saw it as an outlet to express everything we were conditioned not to express in real life and then subsequently got exposed to so much unhealthy shit
Werewolves are stereotyped as ravenous monsters because the transformations burn so many calories that they’re essentially starving afterwords. The more “controlled” werewolves are just the ones who figured this out and loaded up on calories beforehand, whereas the “wild” ones assume it’s part of their wolfish nature to hunt and eat whatever’s nearby.
The transformation back burns calories too, but by that point they’re exhausted from running around in the woods all night, not to mention the physical strain of two transformations. And filthy people showing up at Denny’s in the early morning are assumed to be hungover, so the ravenous beast idea is applied only to the wolf half.
are you suggesting people who eat at denny’s are essentially werewolves
me, before touching a puppy: i like the predictability and maturity of adult dogs and am intimidated by the amount of structured work that has to go into preparing a puppy to be a well-adjusted adult, though i do see the appeal to raising a dog from an early age
me, laying eyes on one (1) dog infant: if i don’t obtain one of these i will die
Okay so I’ve always revered Mary, the mother of Christ, whether I was Christian or not. It was hard to leave her behind when I began practicing witchcraft and paganism, so I decided not to.
Mary represents the Triple Goddess tradition (to me) that echoes throughout cultures around the world. Isis, Brighid, the Morrigan, Hecate - all share the maiden, mother, and crone aspects of the Triple Goddess. Mary, in turn, displays the maiden (in her status as virgin when communing with the Angel Gabriel) mother (of Jesus), and crone (parent of an adult Jesus).
Her statue on my altar allows me to worship the triple goddess in all her forms, while still appearing familiar and dear to my western, bible-belt-dwelling, ex-Christian self. Hail Mary.
