Life’s still getting one over on me, but my cold is getting better, and whatever waking hours aren’t spent cooking for and cleaning up after the idiot border, I’m going through my thread-bare wardrobe for ’30s-looking clothes. Can’t wait until my hair’s long enough for pin curls! Also, I’ve been so busy lately, I haven’t [...]

I’m not a Buddhist myself, but after the first time I heard the story of Siddhartha Gautama, I’ve loved to learn what I can about the Buddhas, and I’ve always wanted an altar for my home. For all you Buddhists, or those who simply love the awakened one, Buddha Groove is an online store that [...]
So, great episode of Family Guy tonight, “Not All Dogs Go To Heaven“. I’m glad they touch on the issues they do — the problem people have with atheists is frickin’ ridiculous and I wish they could see it sometimes. The idea that an enormous chunk of people on this planet claim to love peace, [...]
It’s hard not to notice the similarities between some of the more unique pagan gods, but I’ve had to put up with the ignorant, post-christian media that only knows from Olympian gods for too long. They can’t imagine Odin without first picturing Zeus, even though their differences from each other are tied to the traits [...]
I’m certain the modern criticisms of Odin are that he’s not like the gods of the monotheists in some way or another. He isn’t what most would call beautiful, and is therefore difficult to sell. He does not project a facade of righteousness, nor does he command his forces behind closed doors. And his love [...]
Here’s a treat for all my heathen friends. Happy Solstice!

If you’ll gather in close and bribe me with beer,
I shall tell you of Odin’s Vacation last year!
For Odin is Me! I’m the Best of the Best!
All you [...]
Weirdly enough, I don’t usually flirt with guys, it’s mostly the other way around. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not that much to look at, but I’ve got a lot up front so there’s really not an ordeal. Better than a finger in your eye right? Eh, what do you know. Anyway, if I [...]
So often, the story of pagan gods begins with the old and obsolete regime being over-thrown by the next generation of the refined and ingenious. Sort of what happened with Neanderthals being overtaken by homo-erectus. It’s also for human’s to be treated by the gods like animals have been treated by humans — occasionally useful [...]
Faith was reading a little Catholic propaganda today, and it was spouting some of the most ball squeeze logic I’ve ever heard: They belive all pagans came by the concept of equality from Judeo-Christians, who invented the idea, and that it’s pagans who believe in slavery.
Now I could go on about the same things [...]
No, this isn’t a belated April Fool’s. Human-cow embryos have been created at Newcastle University in England. A team has grown hybrid embryos after injecting human DNA into eggs taken from cows’ ovaries, which had most of their genetic material removed.
The embryos survived for three days and are intended to provide a limitless supply of [...]
