Not dead, just still on the road
So the trip to PantheaCon ended up segueing into a nice, leisurely vacation up the Pacific coastline. We’ve been taking our sweet time getting back to Portland, which has been marvelous! I haven’t had a proper, no strings attached, no work involved vacation in gods know how long. Sure, PCon had some work involved and a lot of socializing, but the trip back has been nothing but...

I went to the protest at the Sacred Body of a Woman ritual tonight here at PantheaCon, and you can read about my experiences here. First, I want to emphasize that this is only my opinion, not that of any organization I am a part of or write or otherwise work for. This is me, as an individual, speaking. Second, this is raw material—emotionally and otherwise....

Depressed but not surprised. The same trans-misogynistic garbage is happening at PantheaCon again. Z and the Amazon Priestess Tribe both crapping on trans women. We will not be hurt as much by the hate of our enemies as the silence of our friends.
Oh…
In the con program the Amazon Priestess Tribe has a ritual for “Skyclad Women Only” (read:...

Hey Tumblr, is anyone out there interested in helping me with an art project about microaggressions and the marginalization and oppression social groups? Do you have a story to tell about how people have made you feel less than or “other” for being who you are or “different” from the “norm”?…

Alright, Tumblr vegans. Since I’m unable to physically smack y’all upside your nasty dreaded heads, you get this rant instead.
I want to talk about food choices.
If you’re not totally clueless, you’re probably already aware of the classism and racism inherent in the…

what's the deal with all the talk about pagan...
lindentea:
am I the only one uncomfortable with a bunch of white (neo) pagans who come from a moderate Protestant background doing this?
especially when those same white pagans cite “covering the crown chakra” as their reasoning for doing so?
and then make big image posts that mostly consist of Muslim and Jewish people as examples?

I am alive because of antibiotics.
I get really frustrated with people in the pagan/new Age/other woo-woo communities who bitch and moan about how horrible Western medicine is because of various reasons. There are problems with health care, yes, and pharmaceutical companies overcharging and undertesting at times.
But less than two years ago I was in a hospital in horrible pain with a life-threatening intestinal perforation, with...

“And we have the audacity to wonder why women stay in abusive relationships?” BOOM. right there. TRUTH.
(via deltumbles)
keepuporfallbehind asked: I still don't see why do you think it's ok to use discards from the industry. please, explain. Does it make you think you remain in a 'neutral' position about this whole situation in the industry that kills animals for their fur, just because you didn't kill them yourself? I don't see any logic in this. You BUY from them, you support them.

Do your homework before you start insulting us jfc
Check my genes. Totally human. There’s just some level of me that says “Wolf” instead, and I’m okay with that.
I'm not really one to celebrate Valentine's Day.
Part of it is the commercialization and the pressure to “do something”, but also because I feel that a day to celebrate my relationship(s) is redundant, since we do that every day.
But early this morning, around 1am, I was coming back from a trip to the 24/7 postal kiosk, and stopped at a QFC that was open. I bought soft apple cider, as I’ve been craving it a LOT as of late....
