@Ava: Hard relate. I used to be decent at art in high school and now I never draw. I think maybe I have too many hobbies because I focus on writing and fortunetelling, but idk... maybe I should start an art pwyw thread or something just to motivate me to draw seriously.
Also it's so shitty that someone made fun of your art. Like they could do better. *eyerolls*

@Totalanimefan: Yep, fasting should be for adults only. I feel like aged people shouldn't take part either, like grandparents, cause they get pretty weak. But they're often the most religious-minded so they're stubborn on fasting.
Yeah those stories are fun hehe.
@sunny: Yep! There's always next time :D

@CycloneKira: Oh yeah I know you used to RP with her. I don't think she posted much outside of the RP forum.
Chicken Smoothie has an RP forum too, so y'know, there's that.

@Nephila: Shiva devotee stories are typically more entertaining than ones involving other deities. My dad told me other stories; in one, a hunter/forager asks sages how he's supposed to worship a Shiva linga. They tell him pour water over it, and offer flowers and food. To transport all of that in one go he holds the water in his mouth, fruit in one hand, meat in the other. Then he goes to the linga, spits out the water on it, then drops the flowers and puts the meat in front of it. The sages are all scandalised and then Shiva basically tells them, "I don't care." Shiva's got a 'you do you' attitude
I think most of our male gods, in paintings or depictions, would look kind of androgynous to western eyes lol. 'Jolly drunk and Super Angry' is spot on for depictions of western men in paintings
this stuff is pretty revealing about what a culture thinks of divine masculinity to be like. Shiva does get angry and open his third eye, but even that doesn't look like any western men portraits.So one of the goddesses I'm particularly drawn to is Kali, and when I heard Alana Fairchild was making a Kali oracle I got excited. But then I looked at pictures of the cards, and while 'objectively' the art is beautiful, Kali was drawn way too much the way Western women who are considered attractive are drawn: tall and voluptuous and leanly muscular. Even her facial features were made attractive by Western standards. Indian women don't commonly look like that and I've seen many Kali shrines; never have I seen her body sculpted like that. The artist is a Western artist so I was disappointed but not surprised.

@Wildfire: I generally like sports anime cause they're wholesome and fun and get me all hyped up even if I don't know the first thing about the actual sport being played XD
