Boże.

choć nigdy nie byłam w pełni z tobą to liczyłam ze gdzieś tu jesteś liczyłam na to ze zobaczę twoje serce, może moim pierwszym błędem było kochanie ciebie nie przez siebie

przepraszam choć nigdy ciebie nie odwiedzałam, to liczyłam ze gdzieś cie zobaczę

może o to chodziło to ty zobaczyłeś mnie

patrzyłeś i widziałeś

teraz już na mnie nie spoglądasz

przepraszam

choć nie jestem ciebie już warta ty tez nie jesteś najlepszy

nie jesteś bezbłędny, nieomylny, niezniszczalny

inaczej nie byłbyś w stanie stworzyć mnie

twoja ulubiona lalka rzucona w kąt

pamiętasz mnie jeszcze?

czasem czuje ze odpowiadasz a potem przychodzi mgła, jakiej nigdy nie widziałam i już wiem ze to nie ty.

nigdy nie prosiłam o wiele

nie licz na wdzięczność nie dostaniesz jej tutaj

nie dostaniesz jej nigdzie

przestań liczyć na mnie

tak samo jak ja przestałam na ciebie.

Charlie, trying to cheer Adam up: Hey I know Hell can be a bit much, and we do have bad stuff happen to us but it’s not all bad! There’s parts of Hell that are just so different, and it can be amazing. And hey, your son Cain is here! He’s actually kind of a big deal, the very first overlord and all. He’s retired now and is the leader of the biblical settlement outside of pentagram city if you want to……Adam?

Sinner Adam, staring down at Charlie with wide eyes because Heaven told him all his kids chose to be reincarnated because the winner and sinner system hadn’t been set up yet until when Adam died: Cain’s here?

Vaggie, going ice cold from surprise as she sees desperation on Adam’s face for the first time: Oh shit he was human underneath all that asshole

can’t wait when white supremacists find out there’s white muslims and that christian & jewish women in africa experience fgm too

#when they pretend to care about these issues but don’t even know the basics on it #like u really care about fgm so deeply but never bothered to find out it’s not actually limited to a certain religion #they care so much about mandatory hijab but not enough to know that getting stoned to death for not wearing a hijab #is not a common practice whatsoever #move to kosovo if u think religion is race. have fun with the white men there #or move to russia since u think it’s great for women as long as ur among white men

Intellectually I understand where people are coming from, but personally I do THE biggest double take every time someone boils down conservative Christian ideology (and/or secularized cultural reflections thereof) to a kind of dour puritanism that proclaims happiness is sin/suffering is a moral good/everyone should be miserable all the time. Like I get it! I do. But also, institutionally, I have never met a group of more passionate worshippers and vicious defenders of their own comfort than evangelical Christians. There is a reason the common thread between my various weird triggers more or less boils down to "toxic positivity." There is a REASON my exvangelical tag is #walking away from omelas.

#one of my biggest problems with half-cooked critiques of christianity tbqh #and fundamentally it's just the flip side of the same coin #to liberal christians going 'well republicans aren't REAL christians bc they flout the teachings of their own holy text' #religions are socially as well as ideologically constructed! 'real' christianity is christianity as it is really practiced! #valid critique WITHIN the faith perhaps but not that meaningful (and in fact kind of willfully dense imo) take on christianity as a whole. #likewise trying to pin the evils of institutional christianity on some fatal underlying theological flaw is getting the issue backwards #in much the same way that treating race as a biological reality as opposed to a social construct is getting things backwards #empires do not rob and murder and enslave because they are racist. #they do those things out of naked self interest and invent racism to justify themselves and prop up their power. #walking away from omelas #my posts

Apparently being a regular teenager is a disorder requiring medical treatment and the removal of body parts. Not only are you "trans" if you don't fit a 1950s Barbie/G.I. Joe stereotype, you're "trans" if you don't fit a 1950s "golly, gee" soda shoppe "Leave It To Beaver" stereotype.

This is the same tactic psychics use to tell you your fortune, and astrologers use to convince you that distant stars reflect your personality. It's called the Forer Effect, or Barnum Effect.

To really drive home the cult programming, any time you're feeling better, that's how you know you've gotten worse.

For political and ideological reasons - for example, one presenter actually claims that children are being "misdiagnosed" as autistic when they're actually trans - they've flipped the symptom and the cause.

This is more accurate:

Alicent and Aegon are so Virgin Mary and Jesus coded, in a sick and twisted way that it barely makes sense, but at the same time just... does.

a mother and her child born damned from the start, yet she loved him to her core, accepting her fate, accepting she would lose him and then herself.

she carried him, birthed him, raised him, loved him, devoted her very being to him... she lost him, grieved him, lost her mind in his absence. the gods her only respite, yet, when she needed them most, when she needed them to protect her son, her baby, her reason for being, where were they?

#the catholic guilt and angst is getting to me #the mommy issues I used to project on The Mother Mary are now being projected onto Alicent #Aegon and Jesus are literally the same person but also not and they parallel one another perfectly but its also an insult to say they do #two side of the same coin??? #two sons damned by their fathers two mothers damned by their sons both only having each other #maybe #I don't know anymore #it just feels right in my gut #and I'm so tired and just feeling... things... and this post was born #aegon ii targaryen #aegon targaryen #alicent hightower #pro alicent hightower #pro team green #hotd #house of the dragon #tw religion #tw religious themes #tw religious imagery

Okay so before I got into Hazbin Hotel I’ve saw around the internet there’s been the floating question about if Adam, biblical, would have a belly button. Since that’s from where your umbilical cord was in the womb and Adam was not born so to speak.

So, I’d like to think that Hazbin Hotel Adam was freaking out when Cain had one. Like he thought that was just for animals, and humans did not have that stuff. Then he thought it over, and realized him and Eve and Lillith didn’t have one because they have no mother. They were never children, or babies. They were made into the world grown.

That has to fuck you up some way or another. And I can just see Adam holding Cain and staring down at his stomach, starting to resent the way he was created, as his newborn son sleeps soundly. Because if he was the perfect first man, why didn’t he have this mark that showed he was crafted from something other then the cold dirt?

#hazbin hotel adam #I got too into this #I blame my religion issues #Sorry #biblical references #hazbin hotel #i know show lore doesn’t follow the Bible to a T but let me project #Angst #alexa play what was I made for #Idk if anyone’s brought this up before #Lmk #Would love to read stuff about this

I think my favorite difference between the comic and movie is that in the movie, they live in an isolationist fortified city and their only concept of religion is regarding Gloreth. They treat her like a God, all the way down to using her name as an expletive.

Meanwhile in the Comic they live in just. A regular medieval (albeit sci-fantasy with modern elements) city 😭 and they celebrate Christmas and it is CALLED Christmas, and they say "God" as an expletive which means that Christianity, and by extension Jesus Christ Himself exist in the canon of the Nimona Comic Universe

#I like to headcanon that pre-Gloreth people practiced real world religions in the movieverse #an easter egg is in my fics ONLY Nimona says “Oh my God” while everyone else says Gloreth #because she's the only one who can remember the concept of a God existing 😭 #anyway do we think Comic Ambrosius is/was a Christian and it contributed to his endless issues or #not that religion/Christianity is always a bad influence but I feel like in this context it defo would be lol #nimona #nimona 2023 #nimona movie #nimona graphic novel #nimona analysis #nimona comparison

I want to point out a scene I really love from Young Justice #43. Not only is it a really good scene, I think it shows how much Cassie grew up over the course of Young Justice.

Ellen, a classmate of Cissie’s, just lost her parents in a bombing. She left the school, and everyone is worried she might attempt suicide. In the middle of telling Cassie about Ellen, Cissie and Traya are jumped by their racist classmates.

Superboy breaks the sound barrier going to protect them, but unexpectedly, Cassie is not right on his heels. Her best friend and the girl who is basically a younger sister to the entire team are in trouble, but she doesn’t go barging in as redundant backup. Cassie trusts Superboy to handle it. While he saves Cissie and Traya, Cassie handles an equally pressing matter.

She doesn’t crowd Ellen, or yank her off the ledge to “get her to safety”. She approaches carefully, calling out to Ellen so she doesn’t startle her. She talks to her, giving standard reassurances at first but quickly realizing the situation is not what she thought and adjusting accordingly.

Cassie is quiet. She patiently listens as Ellen pours her heart out, offering only quiet acknowledgement of Ellen’s feelings, until Ellen directly addresses her.

I could never picture Cassie from the first arc of YJ doing this, let alone the Cassie from her first appearances in Wonder Woman. Early Cassie is brash and loud, constantly rushing into things fists first. She is absolutely sincere, but she lacks the finesse to handle delicate situations. I wouldn’t even expect her to go find Ellen — she would have been right on Kon’s heels to go save Cissie and Traya. Instead she splits duties, trusting Kon to handle things while handling a potentially delicate matter herself with empathy and grace. It demonstrates trust, teamwork, and emotional maturity. We also get a really touching conversation out of it.

Idk, I just really like this scene.

(Come to think of it, this is exactly how Cassie approaches Tim in Red Robin shut up I’m not crying you’re crying)

#cassie sandsmark #tw suicide mention #young justice 1998 #young justice comics #there’s more to say on Peter David’s approach to religion and prejudice in this YJ issue but I like this particular scene #I really enjoy this whole issue but I wanted to talk about this scene #lobbing my half baked posts into the tag bc dammit someone needs to do it #talking about cassie
