Attempts at poetic description of nyctosaurs
A creature resembling a bird flew overhead. It had a long stork like beak, slightly curved towards the end, bright yellow in colour, and it was bichromattic, with a dark grey upper body and a white underside. A massive crest erupted from the back of it's head; it resembled a backwards oriented antler, with two simple twigs of bone, yet far longer than the animal's wings. Dark colour, it was connected to the base of the beak.
At closer inspection, the wings were vastly different from those of a bird. They were membranous, yet not at all like those of a bat; for starters, a single finger supported them, no bone interrupting the smooth surface
Let's make it clear: I have nothing against carnivory. I myself try to consume as many animals as possible.
It's just that I hate hypocrisy. Dogs and cats are exempt from being feasted up, because they somehow are intelligent, while a pig is worthy of eating.
Yet pigs are more intelligent than dogs and cats combined. Studies show that they are as smart as children. They most certainly are as smart as the average toothed cetacean, their marine relatives.
It's telling when history recognises this. Who is the symbol of mankind's dark intelligence, as seen in ambition and greed? The pig. Who has eyes that reminds us of black holes, concentrati
Começou, como previsto, na água.
Era de noite. Os vestígios do fogo divino morreram, apenas um pequeno tom escarlate no horizonte. A lua encontrava-se a meio do céu, cheia, iluminando o éter com uma luz branca, mais intensa que o normal, dando um tom de prata a cada folha. Era um mato mediterrânico, com árvores baixas e de forma arredondada, os louros e as faias-austrais sendo particularmente omnipresentes. Era bastante aberta, deixando a erva crescer e ser também esbranquiçada. À excepção de algumas áreas particularmente densas, não havia uma copa contínua, e se n
Currently, our perception of the western zodiac is based on medieval notions. We have 12 signs linked closely to western elements and planets, dictating our personality and nature, and presumably magickal properties and expertise.
It is no secret our modern perspectives are screwed up. Sun signs have been subjected to centuries of corruption, eventually surfacing as the recent statements that the signs are in wrong order. The problem, however, is not wrong alignments, but the zodiac itself.
According to the original sources, the ancient babylonians, only four constellations matter.
Originally, the star charts used to study the Heavens dete
According to many people, homophobia doesn't matter because it is an "opinion".
Well, corrective rape is an opinion. Corrective rapists believe in sexually violating to make a person "right". Why is it wrong to commit corrective rape while encouraging homophobia isn't, if they're both ethical opinions?
Jihad is an opinion. Muslims genuinely believe in killing infidels to defend what they believe to be right. It's an opinion as well, so why is it considered wrong?
Anarchist bombing is an opinion. They believe a better society will arise from the ashes of the old. Why is such a noble purpose chastised?
Don't be an hypocrite. Support your ma
As far as western esoterists - or really, any western person - are concerned, only four "elements" exist: air, earth, fire and water. Many people keep making justifications for their presence in media and spirituality, that they represent the four basic organic elements (hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen), or the four states of matter (solid, liquid, gas, plasma/energy), and thus only four are used.
However, in the original context in which elements are used, they aren't mere building blocks for matter: they are natural and spiritual forces. Fire isn't just brilliant and hot gas or plasma, it's a representation of life itself, of passions,
