Ya know what makes me really mad, actually?
That when Demi Lovato came out, all those people were freaking out and acting like they/them pronouns are such a big deal but as soon and I mean as
Soon
As Demi said they’re more in touch with their femininity again and wants to start using she/her pronouns again….the media went wild like
“Ahhhh she’s going back to she/her” ya da ya da ya da, kept referring Demi as she and only she. As if her identity as a queer person didn’t matter anymore. Fuckers practically erased Demi’s fucking identity.
No. Demi didn’t just decide she was going back to being a woman, yeah? They are still non-binary. She uses they as well as she. They didn’t go back to she/her. They added she/her to her as acceptable fucking pronouns for others to refer to her as. Demi Lovato’s pronouns are she/they.
Pronouns don’t equate fucking gender. 👏👏👏

Madison De La Garzia, also known as Juanita Solis from Desperate Housewives talked recently about the impact of fatphobia from her own perspective as a child actor. She was between 6 and 8.
I try not to use buzzfeed as a source but the article is simple and explains what you need to know.
Fatphobes makes me sick, the general view of the public on CHILDRENS BODIES makes me sick. Who ARE you to literraly insult a CHILD on their looks....

My Grimoire Research Library
this is a list of my major resource I've referenced/am currently referencing in my big grimoire project. For books I'll be linking the Goodreads page, for pdfs, websites and videos i'll link them directly.
There are plenty of generalised practitioner resources that can work for everyone but as I have Irish ancestry and worship Hellenic deities quite a few of my resources are centred around Celtic Ireland, ancient Greece and the Olympic mythos. If you follow other sects of paganism you are more than welcome to reblog with your own list of resources.
Parts of my grimoire discuss topics of new age spiritualism, dangerous conspiracy theories, and bigotry in witchcraft so some resources in this list focus on that.
