☽☾ The Huntress ☽☾
This is a devotional piece I drew for my beloved goddess Lady Artemis ! I'm really happy with the outcome even though I wish I could've done more with the background :/ but also this is the first fully colored piece I've done in a while and I'm glad I could do a more complicated one for my lady ! I hope she likes it , and you do too I hope <3
ALSO please cut me some slack on the rendering of the dog , I never draw animals and fully color them even less so , but I tried my best .
The little "print" on her clothing is supposed to be cypress branches & the white spots on her shoulders & cheeks are referencing the white spots of fawns ! The fur around her shoulders is from a bear and the bandages are stained with Ichor , the golden blood of the gods ( hunting isn't an easy job after all )
This piece was heavily inspired by one of my favorite paintings called " Diana the Huntress " by Gaston Casimir Saint-Pierre which I used as a reference :3

Hello dear friends! ❤🤍🖤💚
🍉I am Mahmoud Ayyad, a Palestinian from the besieged and destroyed Gaza 😭😭, coming from an extended family of young children, women and elderly people ❤❤ who have been suffering😭😭 for 300 difficult days from an aggressive war.
Our lives are harsh because we lack all the basic necessities of life. Everything has become scarce and unattainable. There is no food, no water, no medicine.
So, I ask you to help me keep my family safe and alive, especially after we had lost all our sources of livelihood.Please do not leave my family to struggle and suffer these difficult days alone. You can support my campaign by donating whatever you can or by sharing my posts to reach others who can help us survive the war to safety and peace. You are helping the lives of many people with your small contribution. Every donation makes a difference in our very difficult lives. But this is a legitimate campaign and has been checked by 90-ghost.

A few common misconceptions and hurtful myths about the gods I worship:
• Demeter is not careless or selfish for reacting the way she did to the loss of her daughter. Grief, even amongst the gods, is an emotion so powerful that it causes us to loose control, and surrender to our own emotions. You would not blame a woman in grief over the loss of her child for having a mental breakdown. Also, I don’t personally believe that the plagues that befell Greece after these myths were written were caused inherently by Demeter, as agricultural disasters happened often, especially back before modern farming and cultivation knowledge, and it was if anything, a coincidence of timing which frustrated and worried men used as justification to attack and blame Demeter as a target of their angst, and a scapegoat to direct their suffering at.
• Poseidon wasn’t a rapist, nor was he inherently malicious or “evil”. Although he is most certainly impulsive and often aggressive, it is rarely in a malicious way, as many of the myths paint him as. You have to remember as the embodiment of the sea, sailors and others who knew the dangerous and unforgiving nature of the ocean often cast these traits onto Poseidon by association, and not all of the things they believed of him were necessarily true. The idea that he is a rapist is also a myth, or many myths, cultivated I’m sure by the high ranking and extremely misogynistic patriarchal men of Greece, who saw powerful male gods like Poseidon and Zeus as equals to themselves (foolish) and therefore believed that if they liked taking advantage of women and other unconsenting individuals, than surely they did too. (I imagine many found themselves smitten as a result of this.) if anything, Poseidon was more of a dominant father figure, like Zeus. He saw the women of the Parthenon as his daughters and sisters, as well as his followers, hence the reason many modern devotees such as myself refer to him as “father”.
• conversely, Artemis was not a misandrist, she didn’t hate sex, and she was not some uncontrollable psychopath. Many of Artemis’s myths heavily exaggerate her animalistic tendencies, which do exist, but are certainly not psychopathic or evil in nature, as nature itself is inherently incapable of being so. She also did not “hate” men, non-virgins, or sex. In fact, as the patron goddess of pregnant women and babies, these things are inherently connected to her domain. One of the reasons these beliefs have emerged, besides the myths, is that people have exaggerated the fact that as a virgin goddess who remains chaste as a virtue, Artemis tends to avoid men and people who aren’t women in her myths, not out of misandry, or other ideas that are honestly quite terf-y, and have been used to push transphobic narratives, but because she hopes to protect these virtues. She does not hate her male, trans, or otherwise non-cis woman followers, she values them just as much, and this is an unfortunatley common, and hurtful, misconception. Like Poseidon, she is often aggressive, and can be impulsive, but she’s MUCH more of a stern mother of nature, than a ruthless animal.

Please don’t fall for these common misconceptions, read Hellenic texts and stories yourself, and try not to spread misconceptions yourself! There are many reliable resources to avoid this, such as Wikipedia, theoi.com, and more! Have a blessed day 💙🏛️
I saw a post yesterday saying that someone was surprised people read straight fanfic and it actually had me tweaking out. I ship mainly lesbian ships as I find them the most relatable and most comforting although winners do NOT love winning. I ship straight ships too and I feel like that's how fandom spaces started is the fact that you ship something that wasn't canon. You found two characters that made sense together. Idk just let people ship what they want as long as it's safe sound and consensual. That's my yap session for today.

I'll be real, y'all.
I don't see an ultra-nationalist opening a temple to Pan and Zeus in Arcadia as a Helpol win.
I see it as a stain that we will have to grapple with for time immemorial.
Heck, the people celebrating its opening—more likely than not—wouldn't be allowed anywhere near it.
Greeks only. You know, since it was opened by an ULTRA-NATIONALIST.
shame on all who participated in the movement of removing the T in lgbTqia+
Marsha P. Johnson was erased from the stonewall monument website, along with any other trans activists.
there would have been NO stonewall monument without Marsha P. Johnson.
i am speechless, but also furious. shame on you if you contributed to this.

can never understand the “I miss s1 spencer before he was traumatised ☹️” comments - sorry, the s1 spencer whose father walked out on him and left him with his mentally unstable mother? the s1 spencer who practically had to raise himself and sacrifice his childhood to care for his mother? the s1 spencer who blocked out so much of his childhood he had to consider his own father having molested him? the s1 spencer who, as a child, was approached by a predator to play chess? the s1 spencer w memories so traumatic he blocked them out and would need hypnosis to uncover them? the s1 spencer who was in college from age 12 in a social environment filled with only people much older than him, leaving him completely isolated from all the experiences most share during college? the s1 spencer who was mercilessly bullied w physical violence and general cruelty like when he was stripped naked and tied to a pole by kids we can assume were much older than him due to how quickly he progressed through school? the s1 spencer who has felt like an outcast his entire life through no fault of his own? the s1 spencer who is afraid to visit his mother in her facility bc he knows how distressed she can become and it hurts him too much? the s1 spencer who has never had a single person (from what we’ve seen) truly enjoy his company without becoming irritated by his ramblings of relevant trivia, apart from his mother? - THAT “un-traumatised” s1 spencer ????????????
the implication that he wasn’t traumatised until he joined the BAU erases how hard he worked to get that job and WHY. his career is the result of his childhood trauma and who that turned him into; what he grew up learning and observing, the understanding he had that he could use to help other mentally unstable people from hurting themselves/others. we’ve NEVER SEEN an “un-traumatised” spencer and we never will. he’s not some untainted baby fresh out the womb in season 1. he’s notably LESS traumatised than in later seasons, but he still has A LOT of trauma.
highly doubt he’d compare getting kidnapped to having to institutionalise his own mother as soon as he was of the legal age to do so.
