Y’all I want to throw massive kudos out to the Roger Williams Park Zoo for a choice they made today: rather than joining in on a GenAI trend all the zoos are doing right now, they chose to support and spotlight an artist on their staff!
The big thing right now is these GenAI “figurine toys” of zookeepers or zoo management. And instead they shared a version drawn by one of their staff!
Go give them some love, if you’re on FB. Too many zoos are really getting into GenAI and just whitewashing the climate change / copyright issues that come with it, so I want this zoo to get as much positive feedback as we can muster for making a better choice.
If you’re ever having a breakdown, just remember the wise words of the lord himself
I caught that, Adrien.
🌱 Subtle Persephone Worship 🍂
Take a walk/drive through an area with lots of falling leaves during the Fall
Step in dry leaves to hear that satisfying crunch
Start a garden; tend to plants within your space
Pick flowers (not from other people's gardens!!!)
Make flower crowns
Have a candle that reminds you of her (no altar needed)
Wear jewelry that reminds you of her
Keep a picture of her in your wallet
Have a stuffed animal pig, rooster/hen, snake, or dog
Have imagery of spring, flowers, fall, winter, or pomegranates around
Eat pomegranate seeds or drink pomegranate juice
Learn to let go of shitty people, if able; assert your personal boundaries
Take a hike/walk in nature; visit a nature preserve
Honor your ancestors; learn about your family history
Keep family heirlooms; hold onto to objects given to by loved ones who've passed on
Become comfortable with change; take new risks and go outside your comfort zone
Make a list of goals at the end of each month; these goals are for the month ahead
Find simple joys in your day to day; make a list of things that you enjoy
Spend time with pets and loved ones; show appreciation for them
Volunteer at animal or homeless shelters
Support children-focused or environmental preservation organizations
Show yourself the same love you give to others
Practice standing up for yourself
During the winter, make yourself cozy; drink something warm, watch a favorite movie, curl up in a fuzzy blanket, etc.
Do spring-cleaning; keep your space clean
Donate things like blankets and coats to homeless shelters at the start of winter or fall
Cook a warm meal for someone in need, especially when it's cold out
Collect animal bones (thank the animal's spirit; I think that's just respectful)
Remember to regularly go outside/get some fresh air; take frequent breaks from technology throughout the day
Wear flowery perfumes/colognes
Have flowery scents for body wash, shampoo, conditioner, etc.
Take a self-care bath/shower

I might add more down the line! For the time being, this is my list of ways to discreetly worship Persephone. Take care, and I hope this helps! 💚

“it’s another culture, be respectful” idgaf 💀 if it’s oppressive to women, it’s a problem, i don’t care if it’s ur customs. girls having to cover themselves, not being allowed to go to school, being violated, not being allowed to be heard, literally being all around disrespected but you expect me to just be cool about it because “it’s culture”.
women do not deserve to be treated as lesser than in the name of anything. idc if it’s your religion, i don’t care if it’s tradition, it’s a bunch of bullshit.
Do you think
Every time Chat Noir dies
And Ladybug brings him back
Gabriel gets a little angrier
Because
She’ll bring him back
She gets to save her love
And that’s not breaking the rules
But he
He
Saving Emilie is “too far”
Why does Ladybug get for free what he has to kill for
I hate to break it to you friends but the excessive hate campaign of white women is, at it’s core, misogynistic.
Nazis will never be welcome in paganism. They have no space in our communities, we will have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to nazis. You have no right to the cultures, gods and religions you hijack to spread your disgusting ideologies. You will find no refuge or comraderie amongst pagans.
Reblog to let nazis know they’re not welcome here.
Ken was more than an antagonist/villain but a representation/metaphor for all the sweet boys in our lives who eventually grew up to be misogynistic men. Who take more than they’ll ever give. They are the boys who felt under-appreciated and unloved and found validation from Andrew Tate podcasts.
A lot of women if not all can relate to that on some level. Son. Brother. Friend. Cousin. Nephew. Uncle. It happens so much more than we want to think about. It’s so prevalent and sad that despite everything Ken did, Barbie apologized to him and received no apology in return.
Barbie Land was far kinder than Kendom. The Barbies were dismissive about the Kens, yes, but they were always treated kindly and with some decorum. Kendom literally made the Barbies their servants designed to cater to their every whim. Just look at that. And even then, Barbie apologized. President Barbie gave them a (admittedly low) position in the courts as a token of good will. A fairly realistic take right there but so sad considering the harm they’d done.
He stole her dreamhouse. He stole Barbie’s dreamhouse. And she apologized for hurting him.
Today, when we went to the forensics, I was in the morgue section, and I was always looking to see someone like Sherlock there :'((((
# Wasn't HE supposed to be in the morgue?!
# What if I don't find Sherlock in the criminal justice field? :'V
# I NEED HIM FOR MY ..Criminal assignments given by professor's
