Thanks. I didn’t want to speak for pagans of colour, but to use my priviledge to amplify their position... I hope that came across.

Why do you use “The Norse Tradition” as an example here?

The devil, yes... but at this risk of going #notalldemons, well demons aren’t a homogeneous group y’know. Many are described as being phenomenally stupid and literal to the point their inability to adopt a more nuanced perspective leads to their spectacular failure whilst others are just smarter than the average…

If they were mutually exclusive than someone needs to tell the pagans of the ancient world (particularily in the Roman empire) who would actively adopt and chose the local gods and traditions they wanted to follow. Worship of Epona (Celtic) was so big amongst Roman soldiers it’s been credited with the general taboo of…

Australian dad, same situation, same stats.

Held at a seaside town kilometers away from anyone who knew me, so no respite. I was trapped there for three days under the care of Catholic teachers who didn’t even…

We need a whole pissing contest dedicated to these stories: women saving women from dicks. This story is awesome and makes up for the dickery in the news.

Compared to the US, the Australia union system is a DREAM. We do strike for our pay increases, although there’s a small but vocal majority who are arguing for what I like to imagine as educational black ops - black faxes to our local members of parliament, mass emails run by a bot, sit ins while we let our own…

Dad’s a cop - I’m a teacher.

In such a similiar situation!

Is there a secret cat-conspiracy theme emerging? Props to SA police, who had this adorable announcement: Cat Squad!
