The Dying Need But Little Dear

 Pantheons in fantasy will almost always be something like “fire deity, water deity, light deity, EVIL deity, GREAT MOTHER” while an average bronze age city’s pantheon was s/t like “deity personifying the city, god everyone has to treat as the main one because his city got geopolitically lucky, three or so personifications of main local sources of income, a nearby mountain, half a dozen incoherent minor deities (at least one is the result of some misspelling a name), deified branding iron”

this year’s prom theme is… *opens envelope* Great Lakes Invasive Species And What Boaters Can Do To Stop Them

And the subject of tonight’s ecology panel is *turns on powerpoint* Enchantment Under the Sea

learning and studying the atlantic slave trade in depth should be a core part of american history education because the scale of it is mind blowing and the level of depravity and length of time it went on for are absolutely inexcusable. anyone who knows deeply how chattel slavery worked wouldn’t dare dismiss it as being “far in the past,” a horrific centuries-long practice like that needs to be remembered vividly and reminded to the ancestors of the perpetrators and beneficiaries OFTEN and EMPHATICALLY, anything less constitutes an erasure of history imo
