Just a little ancient wisdom that made me think of my friends and fellow citizens standing up for human rights and human dignity.

"Apolitcal" seems to be code for "This shit doesn't affect me and I couldn't care less."

When you're scared for our future, remember that it's people like this who are out there standing up for you and your rights. I'm still scared, but I don't feel hopeless.

While I do also prefer the Futhorc, the pedant in me has to point out that the "ken" that the Scots use is from "kennen", which meant "to know or perceive", not the rune name "Cen", which meant "torch".

Part 2 of a series of articles on the nature of Ettins and Giants is up on my website. This one examines the claim that the giants from lore are naturally destructive or evil. sites.google.com/view/the-for...

And most of the people pushing this narrative to "protect girls sports" would gleefully stop girls from playing sports at all.

We're quickly moving towards an economic model where everything is a subscription. My car can remote start, but only if I pay 15$ a month. People were so worried about socialism taking away their private property that capitalism swept in and took their personal property.

There's nothing like writing a whole essay and then finding the one logical problem that undoes everything.

The Forgotten Guest - Chaos Weary The status and worth of β€œgiants” is a hotly debated topic in modern Heathenry. These ettins are the beings called jΣ§tunn by the Norse and eoten by the Anglo-Saxons. In the surviving mythology, ettins ...

I have a new article up that challenges the idea that the "giants" from Germanic mythology are aligned with "Chaos". www.forgottenguest.com/chaos-weary

Inclusivity is the norm for modern Heathenry.
It is an aberration to gatekeep the religion for whites.
It will be better for us all when the AFA, Irminfolk Kindred, Jotun’s Bane Kindred, and like organizations are tossed on the burn pile of history. #heathensky #heathen #inclusive

The gods don't seem to be rooted in any one place, and so my "reaching out" feels more like "being open to what's already there."

A unicorn, panda, tyrannosaurus rex, and frog raise a pole with an American flag like the famous image from the battle of Iwo Jima.

May the gods be with everyone standing up for democracy today. Stay strong, and keep what you're fighting for in your heart always. #nokings [couldn't find source of art]

Learning about ontology is pretty interesting, but it sometimes makes me want to put my particular fist through a universal wall. #philosophy #heathen #polytheist

Welcome to the capitalist innovation museum we got

- scam machine
- psychosis inducing machine
- weapons of mass destruction
- button you push that makes the planet hotter
- markets that intentionally starve people
- clothes that fall apart after washing them 1 time
- medicine you can’t afford

I haven't watched Doctor Who since Capaldi. It's not like the show did anything wrong, I just fell out of interest.

The Forgotten Guest Who am I?

I have two articles up so far on www.forgottenguest.com/ The first was about the intersection of personal experience and lore, and the second arguing against the "supernatural" nature of the gods. I hope you check them out!
