blessed be the weird, the outcasts, the unruly; the mad, the strangers, the wanderers without harbour. saints of loneliness and patrons of struggle, those devoured by guilt and those ravaged by longing; all hail the tired, the lost, the forgotten.

reblog if you agree that people should not use the Gods as an excuse to spread hate.

ive seen way too mch of this on tumblr- people using Aphrodite’s name to support their TERF bullshit. Way too many people using the Gods to justify their nasty hatred for others. TERFs have no place in our community.

why the fuck is no one naming their children after greek goddesses? Name your fucking child Persephone?????? Bitch???????!?

If that makes you happy, my name is Demeter

In my experience, people named after Greek goddesses are some of the most ethereal, chaotic forces I have ever encountered.

Our Art Department’s nude model, for example, is a woman named Hera. She’s stunningly beautiful, rides a motorcycle as apparently her only vehicle, grows all her own food, and keeps bees, turtles, and a dog named Argus, who she walks around town with a peacock feather attached to his leash.

I am thoroughly convinced she is not of this realm.

I’m pretty sure you just met Hera.

why ghost hunting and not ghost observing? ghost anthropology? let me live amongst the ghosts like jane goodall and the chimpanzees

that’s commonly called witchcraft, susan

Also, it often involves a lot of yelling. 

‘mysterious noise’

Me, annoyed; “Arthur, be dramatic all you like, but I swear to fuck if you break anything I will get the incense and salt and evict you.” 

Eviction implies that you can charge ghosts rent. 

What do you get from them? Collect calls from the other side? Cheat codes for tomorrow’s test? All the spoiler plots of your favorite shows? Finding out who is stealing your newspaper? Whose dog owner isn’t picking up after themselves? 

Where’s Dial-A-Ghost when you need one? =_=

Generally speaking I hit them up for help when I lose things and also charge them with protecting the property, and in return they get candles burned for them and coffee offered for their spirit.
