he is back at it again but now listening to square hammer. and as im typing this i started hearing kaisarion blaring from his speakers.

holy fuck

i just caught my father listening to mary on a cross and i was just like 😮

and he has it on repeat. i dont know what to think about this.

Me when I add literally anything to my altar:

not me cosplaying papa nihil to cope with my binder being in the washing mashine. there is something strangely comforting about doing this while eating pizza and watching tv with your cat

this is what i imagine stimming would be like as a fire ghoul. i would love to set my hands on fire.

just burning all those excess feelings out

Cunk on Nirn Part 3: I had to this iconic bit

a bit of advice for my fellow polytheists out there:

use the first of the month as a day to check in with your deities or other spirits you work with!! let them tell you whatever it is that they need to tell you and use that guidance to help you throughout the rest of the month!

copia giving you all a goodnight kiss

i tried my best

The Ultimate Deity Journal Guide

Similar to my grimoire guide, this is a guide on deity journals.

What Is A Deity Journal?

A deity journal is a journal dedicated to a deity. It’s filled with information, offerings, devotional pieces, etc. If you like journaling or can’t give other physical offerings (like food, libations, etc.), it’s one of the best offerings out there.

What Do I Use For It?

Usually deity journals are physical journals and notebooks. Binders and folders work as well. I have seen deity journals online, using things like Notion or Google Docs. Those are a little harder to format, but are great if you don’t have a notebook or aren’t a fan of physical journals.

So, What Do I Put In It?
