#you just made it a higher stakes game of hide and seek
Having gone to this University, and having personally played hide and seek in the Harris Fine Arts Center, I guarantee you that NOBODY finds hiders unless they, too, are familiar with the bowels of the HFAC. Once you get down to the practice-room levels, time stops completely and you could walk up the back stair and end up in 1967. The halls change at least 8 times an hour, there’s no way you’re getting back out the same way you came in. When the lights start going off at 10 the whole bottom 3 floors descend into some subsection of the fey realm. I once hid up on the balcony stage access fire-escape thing of a lower-level theater, and 3 faculty walked by under me and not a one of them noticed the hulking, wheezing asthmatic lurking above them, half dangling off a rickety metal ladder that probably wasn’t supposed to be climbed. A fellow hider friend came and found me, and we sat up there for 30 minutes listening to some distant clicking sound before we realized nobody was actually going to find us. We had no cell service, and no internet to reach anyone. We got lost trying to get back out, and once we resurfaced, everyone else was gone, the building was empty, and we just went home to eat ice cream. Nobody knew where we had disappeared to, and nobody bothered to check if we were there before leaving. For all I know, they just assumed we had been lost to the gaping maw of the HFAC basement and when they saw us at church on Sunday it was probably like they’d seen a ghost. None of us ever mentioned it again.
Basically what I’m saying is Campus Police had no hope of finding them in the first place and probably lost an officer or two if they actually conducted a real search, because nobody except Senior art majors or veteran custodians actually knows how to navigate that building and make it out in the same dimension they entered from. Not at 11pm anyway.
: DISORDERLY
 Oct. 1 - A group of students
 playing hide and seek in the
 Harris Fine Arts Center at 11
 p.m. caused a faculty member
 to call the University Police.
 The police arrived but were
 not able to find any of the
 students.

        What if God was one of us?: alexaloraetheris:
 Reasons I believe my friend is secretly some kind of deity
 1) First time we spoke was a week after the beggining of freshman year she
 summed up my entire character and most of the events of my life Sherlock
 style. I asked her how the hell she knew all that. She just shrugged and said
 she figured out our entire class already
 1
 2) The one time we had religion class instead of ethics she listened to the
 teacher for a few minutes, laughed and told me
 "Humans have wished to be gods so much they've forgotten they have to
 ability to create them. Imagination has truly suffered from this monotheism
 stuff."
 I was confused and asked her if she was an atheist. She rolled her eyes and
 said
 Oh I believe in god alright. I just don't think the bastard deserves to be
 worshipped."
 3) Out of nowhere she gave me this advice
 The only truth a liar ever told was that lies weren't going to save you. Don't
 become the liar who has to pass that wisdom on, because they speak from
 experience
 4) To this day, she has one of those old-timey phones with buttons she only
 uses to ocassionally call someone. When I asked her why she never got a
 smartphone she got pouty:
 "I hate social media. On Facebook they talk a lot but never say anything. If I
 wanted to listen to people moan about their problems and ask for help they
 don't expect l'd listen to their prayers." (Notice the choice of words)
 5) I noticed she was stiff and I offered her a massage since I'm really good at
 it but when i started kneading her back I swear to this day those were not
 muscles I felt. I asked her what she did to turn her muscles into rocks
 covered with a thin layer of skin and she kinda froze then shrugged and said
 she was just really, really stiff. My hands hurt after ten minutes when I can
 usually go for an hour. Next time I offered she seemed surprised and
 laughed. She still has rocks for muscles
 6) We were having a debate over the way neural pathways are formed (I
 study biology and she forensics) and I jokingly asked if I could have her brain
 for study when she dies. She laughed
 Sure, if you find a way to kill me you can have it. I'm actually curious what
 you're gonna find."
 7) One time she was tired and miserable and I tried to comfort her. We both
 have really dark sense of humor so I told her she could scare the dead out of
 their graves with that glare. She told me the dead can't come back and I
 rolled my eyes and said 'obviously' but she continued
 When you die you descend to the underworld with nothing to lose. To keep
 you, they give you something to lose. When you want to return, they will
 demand it back. That's why nobody ever leaves. The only way out is to never
 enter."
 8) One day she just came up to me with a disappointed look on her face
 When I asked her what was wrong she was quiet for a few seconds and then
 just told me
 "Betrayals committed in good intentions are still damning. Just... keep that in
 mind." Then she left and didn't speak to me for three days. I still don't know
 what she meant but even three years later I haven't forgotten it.
 9) We were casually sitting on a bench when, out of nowhere, she asked me
 Is it just me or have humans gotten dumber? Or have they always been this
 stupid and I just haven't been paying attention?"
 10) She asked me if I ever wondered what it was like to die. I said no but told
 her I would tell her when I found out. I meant it as a ghost joke but she smiled
 at me and said
 Great. I'll wait for you to come back. Maybe you'll even remember me
 In conclusion, she is some kind of low-key god and she lost her faith in
 humanity even before we lost our faith in her but she's stuck with us because
 immortality is a bitclh
 P.S. I just remembered her name is a variation on 'Eve'. Maybe l should
 reconsider my atheist status?!
What if God was one of us?
        

            
            

                
                
                    What if God was one of us?: alexaloraetheris:
 Reasons I believe my friend is secretly some kind of deity
 1) First time we spoke was a week after the beggining of freshman year she
 summed up my entire character and most of the events of my life Sherlock
 style. I asked her how the hell she knew all that. She just shrugged and said
 she figured out our entire class already
 1
 2) The one time we had religion class instead of ethics she listened to the
 teacher for a few minutes, laughed and told me
 "Humans have wished to be gods so much they've forgotten they have to
 ability to create them. Imagination has truly suffered from this monotheism
 stuff."
 I was confused and asked her if she was an atheist. She rolled her eyes and
 said
 Oh I believe in god alright. I just don't think the bastard deserves to be
 worshipped."
 3) Out of nowhere she gave me this advice
 The only truth a liar ever told was that lies weren't going to save you. Don't
 become the liar who has to pass that wisdom on, because they speak from
 experience
 4) To this day, she has one of those old-timey phones with buttons she only
 uses to ocassionally call someone. When I asked her why she never got a
 smartphone she got pouty:
 "I hate social media. On Facebook they talk a lot but never say anything. If I
 wanted to listen to people moan about their problems and ask for help they
 don't expect l'd listen to their prayers." (Notice the choice of words)
 5) I noticed she was stiff and I offered her a massage since I'm really good at
 it but when i started kneading her back I swear to this day those were not
 muscles I felt. I asked her what she did to turn her muscles into rocks
 covered with a thin layer of skin and she kinda froze then shrugged and said
 she was just really, really stiff. My hands hurt after ten minutes when I can
 usually go for an hour. Next time I offered she seemed surprised and
 laughed. She still has rocks for muscles
 6) We were having a debate over the way neural pathways are formed (I
 study biology and she forensics) and I jokingly asked if I could have her brain
 for study when she dies. She laughed
 Sure, if you find a way to kill me you can have it. I'm actually curious what
 you're gonna find."
 7) One time she was tired and miserable and I tried to comfort her. We both
 have really dark sense of humor so I told her she could scare the dead out of
 their graves with that glare. She told me the dead can't come back and I
 rolled my eyes and said 'obviously' but she continued
 When you die you descend to the underworld with nothing to lose. To keep
 you, they give you something to lose. When you want to return, they will
 demand it back. That's why nobody ever leaves. The only way out is to never
 enter."
 8) One day she just came up to me with a disappointed look on her face
 When I asked her what was wrong she was quiet for a few seconds and then
 just told me
 "Betrayals committed in good intentions are still damning. Just... keep that in
 mind." Then she left and didn't speak to me for three days. I still don't know
 what she meant but even three years later I haven't forgotten it.
 9) We were casually sitting on a bench when, out of nowhere, she asked me
 Is it just me or have humans gotten dumber? Or have they always been this
 stupid and I just haven't been paying attention?"
 10) She asked me if I ever wondered what it was like to die. I said no but told
 her I would tell her when I found out. I meant it as a ghost joke but she smiled
 at me and said
 Great. I'll wait for you to come back. Maybe you'll even remember me
 In conclusion, she is some kind of low-key god and she lost her faith in
 humanity even before we lost our faith in her but she's stuck with us because
 immortality is a bitclh
 P.S. I just remembered her name is a variation on 'Eve'. Maybe l should
 reconsider my atheist status?!

We all know the pro life movement is full of shit. They only care abt controlling wm. They don’t care abt the children. Because if u were a real prolife advocate u would b completely disgusted

Holy fucking shit, this is actually happening. 


I was watching X-Men the other day, and y'know the opening scene? Where Erik is physically torn away from his mother as theyre put in the concentration camp? I was watching it, and how his mother screamed for him, and I kinda went oh, turned to my friend, and said so this is what its like in America and she knew exactly what I was talking about.History is repeating itself, and, for some reason, no ones doing a fucking thing.: Michael O'Grady

        Just wait til wasps learn the humans have rifles!: boyduroy
 My dad told me a story recently about how
 he was in Boy Scouts or something and they
 went on a hike and were each given a rifle
 and one single bullet to practice shooting
 with (idk, it was the 70s or whatever). One of
 his friends, whom I'll refer to as Steel Balls
 for reasons that will soon become clear,
 beckons my dad to a part of the woods and
 points to a giant hornets nest up in a tree. SB
 announces that hes going to shoot it, waits
 for my dad to take cover (as one should in
 this situation), and fires off his only round
 into the nest. Sure enough, a swarm of pissed
 off hornets descend upon SB, Who stands
 stoically and perfectly still at the base of the
 tree. Dad maintains that, despite their buzzing
 right around him, none of the hornets stung
 his friend, and they soon calmed down and
 returned to their newly renovated nest. SB
 turns back to face my dad and imparts this
 chunk of wisdom: "That's the secret to dealing
 with hornets, Jim. They don't know humans
 make rifle shots, they don't know where the
 noise came from. You gotta stand still and
 don't move, and they won't chase you. If you
 run, they Know you re guilty. Apparently dad
 was so awed he gave up his single bullet so
 SB could shoot the nest a second time, with
 the same results
 Long story short: hornets can sense guilt and
 there are people in the world who have tested
 this theory

 Two minutes is the longest you could
 survive without a space suit on the other
 planets in our solar system. On Mars and
 Mercury, you'd stay alive for as long as
 you can hold your breath (about 2 min),
 and Venus is so hot that you'd instantly
 be vaporized. But just like Jupiter, Saturn,
 and Neptune, Uranus is a gas giant with
 no surface to land on - so you'd descend
 forever into the gassy atmosphere until
 you're crushed by the pressure, which
 takes less than a second to kill you.

 The concept of 'thin places' (where the 'veil between worlds' is thin) was even
 worse - deemed 'ancient Celtic', actually invented in 1938.

 'veil' is COMPLETELY ABSENT from such lore as we have

 The insistence that the earthly & mortal is in one place & the spiritual & eternal is
 in another is being IMPOSED on the old traditions

 Nowadays we don't think of spirits' or Gods' realms as physical places, but as
 planes'. But back then, the Gods lived on Mount Olympus.

 Heaven was believed to be as physical as Earth. Hell could be reached through
 openings in rocks. The whole cosmology was different.

 Human experience of the world was such that the place where the Gods lived
 was imagined to be a place like this, only not near here.

 Of course, now that the Earth is mapped, we needed to imagine otherworlds as

 Hence the Spiritualist concept of the Veil, born of parlour room seances & now
 retrospectively cast as a key element of Samhain.

 Mundanity is a product of modernity, and the Spirit Realm behind its sodding
 Veil was only imagined as a necessary contrast (& salve) to it.

 In summary, Samhain is not a time when the Veil grows thin, because there
 never was a Veil in the old tales, and magic was *everywhere*.

 It's not necessary to buy into the whole 19thC metaphysical hooha of a Veil in
 order to appreciate the tales of, say, fairie folk riding.

 And there's certainly no suggestion that the trolls who descend from their
 fastnesses on that night do so because the pesky Veil is thin.
