And to check #hellenism

This list will help you with concepts of hellenism, information about the gods.

Prayers can be anything like a casual "Hey Zeus, please bring the rain here, thanks". or "Hermes, protect me while I walk back home". You can look through the Orphic and Homeric hymns for inspiration and you can use them as prayers/devotion to the gods. Just think of it as making a poem

Altars don't have to be grand, especially if you live with people that might not accept it, but putting things in an altar will depend on the gods you're worshipping so that altar would be what the gods like or what they're associated with

Example Athena - put pens, pencils, and books on the altar Apollo - add the images of the lyre and sun to the altar Aphrodite - seashells, roses, and pearls will be on her altar

But please don't pressure yourself to choose someone from the pantheon! Not to mention to not be intimidated by the amount of stuff to read, it gets simple overtime.

Hopefully this helps! As I said, I'm also just a learner but these are good basis to start.

my deities trying to help me during a mental breakdown is wild lol

Aphrodite telling me not to cry and that everything is okay while Khnum was stroking my back telling me to draw trying to get me out of a panic attack

and me not being able to listen to Him since i was in the school bathroom without my art supplies.

it wasn’t so funny during my breakdown but now it’s like big humans freaking out over a crazy little bug, lmao

at least im having a little laugh in the after math, will do a thanking offering to both of them tonight for sure

To give International peeps an idea of what the fuck is happening to the Conservatives in the UK right now, leading up to the July 4th election

In a grand total of only 14 days, the conservatives have done the following on the campaign trail.

Announced the election outside of number 10 in the pouring rain with no plans to use an umbrella or take it inside.

Went to a brewery in Wales and asked if they were looking forward to the summer football, only for staff to respond that Wales didn't make the qualification for the cup.

Person who questioned the PM on Television was actually a plant

Went for an interview at the Titanic Quarter in Belfast and the reporter said "are you captaining a sinking ship into this election?"

This picture.

Promised a return of National Service which OBLITERATED the young vote.

A top Tory minister instead of campaigning went to fucking Greece.

A Tory minister gave up her own seat and told everyone to vote for the Reform candidate instead.

Three Tories defected to a different party.

Did a PR thing involving the PM dribbling a football and someone commented on camera "he's as good at football as he is as being Prime Minister" (he was terrible).

Former Tory minister suggested on Twitter that once he loses the election he would bugger off to California to be a speaker at GOP conferences like other former Tory ministers have done, and he had to furiously deny the allegations.

He said he'll get rid of poor value for money University Courses and when asked which ones, couldn't name a single one.

Announced the election but were nearly 200 candidates short to compete and are scrambling to find some.

Hung the flag upside down in their campaign video, which means we're in distress.

Gave a speech with factory workers, and one woman was so aghast at his bullshit on camera that they sent someone out to stand in-front of her to block her reactions; it has already been satirised.

A high profile conservative MP called a pollster who was live on air, the pollster answered, telling him that he was going to lose his seat by a massive majority. The MP didn't say anything and just hung up. Again, this was LIVE ON AIR.

They went campaigning in Hanley, and in the river behind them, the Liberal Democrat party very slowly sailed by on a little boat. The camera man panned the camera away from the prime minister to focus on the Liberals in the boat slowly sailing down the river.

A new poll shows that for the first time in decades, if not over a century, the Conservatives could be in third place, with Labour (Social Democrat) and the Liberal Democrats becoming the top two parties.

I hope you've been keeping count here, because it's been fourteen days and that is 18 pieces of terrible publicity.
