The Apollonian Hermetic Maenad.


Greek polytheist devotee of Apollo, Dionysos, and Hermes. I am batshit. I talk too much and have strong opinions. But would you like some tea?

Ask me anything

Hellenic Problems #79:
Recons dismissing others who actually are reconstructionists as “NeoPagans” because they simply do things differently.

Male privilege is feeling like you can go for walks, free of harassment, late at night without the dog.

aboutmaleprivilege:

Straight male privilege is interpreting the word “lesbian” or “bisexual” as an invitation to a threesome.

is this: http://www.bicworld.com/us/products/details/420/bic-for-her

It’s a pen.  They don’t need to be “for her.”  IT’S A PEN! YOU WRITE WITH IT!

I’m especially annoyed because they don’t have “for him” pens.  Why are default pens for guys, whereas you have to create a new, pink/purple, floral-patterned pen for girls?

I fucking hate pink, just for the record. I tolerate it for breast cancer causes and THAT’S ABOUT IT

When people claim the reason you and they don’t get along is because you’re a Dionysian and they’re Apollonian.

AHAHAHAH
Cause they’re, like, so different.
No. No. No. Not really, no.

Hellenic Problems #122:
“I proudly don’t honour [deity] cos their worship originated in [not Hellas].”

And before you hit the link to send me a note about Adonis, Kybele, Pomona, or others that are typically excluded from “mainstream” Hellenic practise, I’ve seriously seen Dionysos, Aphrodite, and other Olympians listed in that appropriate blank.  One guy even joyfully made a detailed post about how we should all be “true Hellenes” and “deny Dionysos” —and the funny (not “funny ha ha” —the other kind of funny) thing is that he was British, and had a very British name.  I remember that happened the first week I was on HellenicPagan, back before it 90% gravitated to The FarceBorg.  Thankfully, I never get the idea in my head that all the WTF-ery about “the purity of Hellenismos” was only coming from Greek Neo-Nazis.

You know what happens when you deny Dionysus? Go look it up, I’ll wait…

Yeah, I’ve heard of some people really losing their heads over that kinda shit…. >.>
