I still have 4 wips to draw i….
APOLLO✨✨✨
Y’all know im a fan of catchy songs~
i know i always post about "haha funny hermes thing happened" but really, He's the one that taught me that if my depressive episode is too much to wash my face, then just wiping a wet paper towel does the job just fine. He's the one that sits on the empty spot next to me on the bus or at the cafeteria when no one else will. He's the one that cheers me up with memes and funny music when i'm upset. He's the one that sends a little luck or a little extra change in my wallet when i need it. He's my soul father, and it shows.
Just wanted to share some pictures of my altar spaces for Lady Artemis and Lord Apollon here, because I redecorated them yesterday and am really enjoying the way they look ☺️💕
not the best photo, but the morning light shining on Apollo’s altar is absolutely stunning.
My best devotional act for all the deities I work with is to stay alive and well. I promised that I would heal and move onwards. This is just how simple and joyful devotional acts are.
I am still alive, in a good state, and healing after depression.
This is the best devotional act I could've done.
Yes, you heard that right, lesbians. If you’re not coddling trans-identified males, you’re just a bigot.
"here's your script, filthy dykes"
You know, they never even fucking said that you were wrong or bad for being penis-repulsed. All they said was 'that's fine, and here's a nicer way to say it so no-one is sad!' No-one is telling you to go have sex with trans women if you don't want to. But nooooo, we have to be assholes to everyone else because it makes us feel better about- *gasp,* having to change the way we word something! Oh no. Is the special snowflake throwing a tantrum again?
Hermes once told me that most arguments stem from one or two root causes- a difference in core principles or a miscommunication.
For example, we will stand up to people who try to debate human rights. We will argue to protect the defenseless and our community. This is a core principle of our organization.
Outside of core beliefs, most arguments are caused by miscommunications and can be cleared up pretty easily. Shakespeare’s “The Comedy of Errors” comes to mind.
Running any sort of organization is a lot of work. It requires community engagement and connecting with people. In case you hadn’t noticed, people are messy and complex. We’re all just doing our best and sometimes our members make mistakes.
To build community we have to communicate and when we communicate- we will make mistakes. When we receive communication- we will make mistakes. It’s a part of being human.
All of this to say that if you have an issue with someone or something in the community- PLEASE reach out to our leadership right away. We cannot address your concerns if we do not know about them. You can always email [email protected] or use the contact forms on our website http://www.templeofdionysus.org
We take community feedback seriously and we want to make sure that the community is a safe and accessible place.
We’re also a signed member of the Xenia Declaration.

Today my aide cooked what should not be cooked
I have to get this out, because today feels like an actual nightmare I keep expecting to wake up from.
I'm disabled, and need help with stuff around the house. Today was the second day with a new agency and new home health aide, "Tina." I set it up so she would come by in the morning while I'm sleeping (insomnia is killer), and I texted her last night what I would need done today.
One of those things was to roast some precut squash I'd gotten so I could have it with my salads and pasta. I was very clear in my instructions: what it looked like, where it was in the fridge, how to use the oven, how to cook it. I also have a roommate who was up and told her she could ask them for help if she couldn't find anything. Or come get me if truly necessary.
Now, I have three pet ball pythons. They eat rats that I thaw from frozen in the fridge in a reusable plastic bag. Yes, that's where I'm going with this.
Tina couldn't find the squash, and so, obviously, that meant she should roast the first other thing she could see that was technically also encased in plastic, in a completely different area of the fridge. The FUCKING RATS. In butter and salt, in my nice baking dish.
And like, that's insane all on its own, but if you're going to cook any animal, you should at least clean and skin it first, right??? Like, do the crazy, disgusting thing properly so I can respect the effort, instead of sticking them in as is. Fur and guts and all.
And the smell. Good God baby Jesus the SMELL. It woke me up and had me gagging the moment I opened my bedroom door. Definitely not squash. Or food-smelling for that matter. At first I thought the squash had spontaneously rotted overnight and she'd tried to cook it anyway. That would have been slightly less insane and much preferable.
I had to pull it out of her what she was cooking instead when she said she couldn't find it (it was in plain sight), had to open the oven and see my snakes' dinners in place of my own and still couldn't process what the fuck was happening, what I was looking at and smelling. I don't like yelling at people and generally avoid it. Today was a day for exceptions. And at the end of my half-crazed, dissociative rant, I told her to get the whole dish and its contents and herself out of the fucking house. And to not come back.
Suffice to say, I've contacted the agency to report it and am requesting a new aide. Now I'm sitting at a cafe trying to calm down and eat something despite the scent memory that's taken up permanent residence and turning my stomach. The whole house reeks like musty, sewage-dipped pork that had been left out for a whole day before being cooked in rancid oil, and I'm not sure Febreeze is gonna cut it. I don't want to go home. 🫠😭
what am i gang. :3

Hey so quick question.
Why do y'all think that the greek gods are mad about elections? Let alone be mad at YOU for how the elections turned out.
Another question. Shouldn't they also be mad about the constant forest fires in Greece every year? The poverty and exploitation of the African continent by their past colonizers? Shouldn't they be mad about what's happening in Gaza? And why are they not mad at the dictatorship in Russia?
I know this is a situation where many Americans are becoming vulnerable... From queer people, people of color, disabled people, and more minorities.
BUT PLEASE TRY TO THINK RATIONALLY. WHY WOULD THE GODS BE MAD AT YOU FOR SOMETHING YOU CAN'T CONTROL?
Also. Don't believe everything you see on TikTok and stop fear mongering PLEASE.
🌻 a sunflower for everyone who is not feeling well today
