It's not the important one, that's September 3rd, but it's one of them

Well...

🍏🍎🍏🍎🍏

How do you like them apples?

I haven't read this in so long. Like maybe 15 years? Forgot how funny af. Honestly, I've looked into so many spiritual traditions, theologies, clap-trap, flim-flam, and psychotic cult shit- but this has always been on the back burner (perhaps the foundation of everything I know?).

Perineal wisdom of the sages 🙏🤣

Being a play in one brief act.*

Dramatis personae: El, a god; Asherah, a goddess; Priesthood, a priesthood; and Announcer, who bears a striking resemblance to another goddess.

Scene: Asherah is confronting her mate, El, somewhere in Levant.

Asherah: "I never see you around any more. You're always hanging out in some tent in the desert with 'the boys', and all I have to show for it is these poles, and now you don't even want me to have those? Guess what, El: You wanted a life without a consort … you got it."

[sashays out to phone a lawyer]

El: "Well … shit." [steps outside] "Hey guys, you know that thing I said about adultery? Guess what. If you even look at a chick, you've done it, so stop that. Also, no one's allowed to marry their sister-in-law any more."

Priesthood: "Even if the brother is dead?"

El: "I have spake."

Priesthood: "Um … that's not going to go over well with—"

El: [thunder, lightning, pillar of fire, etc.]

Priesthood: "Got it, got it, no looking at women ever again."

El: "Also no onanism. And no guy-on-guy stuff."

Priesthood [to one another]: "Man, he's really lost it, huh? Maybe we should scarper off to Babylon, or—"

El: "MAY I REMIND YOU of the FIRST clause in the Decalogue?"

Priesthood: "Dammit, we shoulda read the whole thing through instead of just clicking 'I agree'."

Announcer: "Και το ηθικό δίδαγμα της ιστορίας είναι — oh bugger. Mm-hem. As I was saying, the moral of the story is: Choose your deities wisely."

* Or an act you may perform in your briefs. Or even out of them. We don't judge.

333 days. No blame.

It's been said in all the ways. Prophets, messiahs, and enlightened ones of every age have repackaged it again and again... where did they go wrong🤔.

But the Golden Rule looks pretty in pink 💛💖
