Damn you! No really... you are the incarnation of
evil itself. You are the Devil, The Father of
Lies, Satan, Lucifer, Beelzebub, whatever you
choose. You rule over hell and most of earth
even though you aren't supposed to interfere
with humans. But you're evil! So naturally you
break all the rules.
What Incarnation of Immortality are you? (wonderful pictures)

Advice for veggible people
Jun. 3rd, 2004 12:56 pmIf you're an herbivore for whatever reason (I have definite opinions on the subject, but I'm not ready to rant today) you probably experience the occasional meat craving. I always used to think that vege-type people researched their lifestyle choices, but I am discovering that this is not so. To that end, some help:
You need iron, omega-3 fatty acid, and vitamin B12. Humans normally obtain these from meat.
Any blood issue is helped along by iron. It makes hemoglobin work so your blood can carry oxygen, which handles everything from clear thought to strength to pain threshold to stamina etc etc etc. There are plenty of non-animal ways to get it, including lots of natural ones like peanuts.
Omega-3 fatty acid is a building block of seratonin. Seratonin is the endorphine that allows your moods to stabilize and helps your sleep be actually restful, which in turn helps thinking and physical health. Richest source in the world: fish oil, especially in raw salmon. There are also supplements for omega-3. If you don't use animal products at all, make sure your supplement is artificial, as many are simply salmon oil in a capsule.
B12. B12 makes your brain go. In nature, usable amounts are found ONLY in animal products. If you don't use them at all, FOR THE LOVE OF GOD GET SUPPLEMENTS!!!! Without B12, your synapses will fire weakly until they begin to STOP. You will have trouble forming new ones. You will have trouble processing all the lovely other nutrients you eat. YOU NEED B12!!!!!
I'm anti-vegetarianism, not anti-vegetarian. The ones I do like, I want to see well. The ones I don't like/don't care about, I want to see intelligent enough to not harass me about eating the flesh of cute cuddly cows.

Jun. 3rd, 2004 02:20 pmI am a creature of all times and places. I love the romance of the past. I revel in the joy of the present. I look forward to a long future in which I shall become God. This does not mean I wish to control all. I simply wish the power to right wrong when I see it, and be uninvolved the rest of the time, which is more than is being done now. If God cared for the world the way I care for my lovers, what a place this Earth would be.
I love night, and sunlight, and fire, and blood, and the moon, and flowers, and kittens, and cuddling, and dancing, and reading, and singing.
I am intense and romantic and hungry and full of life and light and shadow and magic. My soul is vast and wild.
Once my wings were broken and torn; my spirit weak and my heart wounded. These were ills I'd brought down upon myself and I have conquered them. I am a mighty beast, dragon and phoenix and caith-paluc.
I play like a kitten. I wonder like a child. I am the still place in the storm and I am the tornado that carries off Dorothy's farmhouse.
And I will take you with me.
