![]() ![]() The one she does have though is important and interesting. She just didn’t get written about a lot, so maybe she was one of those Deities like Mithras who were more about the mystery cults. Despite being arguably one of the more important Goddesses to Roman warfare, and the Renaissance’s love of things Roman. ![]() So there isn’t much about Bellona in terms of relations and connections that I could really find. And I laugh at you.ĥ) Members of the family, genealogical connections You are but worms, who think the birds are evil because they fly in the sky. Hate them, hate them for their pay, for their slaughter, for their craft, and know in your hearts you hate because though they kill for coin, they have more honor, more integrity, and more righteousness than you shall ever know in your angry lives spent striking at those different from you. So look with envy upon these, my children, fighting for the Republic, for the hope of a better tomorrow of freedom. I would spit on you, honor-less, craven creatures, but you are not even worthy of that. You wish to look down upon my children because they are paid to kill? Should they kill for free? Do you think that they should be made to slaughter without hope for a better future at the end? Oh, I know you Marxists well, “for each according to his needs, by each according to his ability.” Perhaps you think safety should be free, and they deserve death for creating death, because that is their ability. You think your transsexuals and your gays would be safe? They would be sacrifices and broodmares. Think them holier than my children? Think they will love you more because you hate the same thing? I have seen their slave pits, hear the cries of their rape victims. I have seen what Allah’s children do there. I have walked the lands of Palmyra and the Eastern Romans. There are those without the honor and mercy of my children. Think you safe in your beds without my killers? How foolish. That the weak resent this protection is no mark against those who defend nation and people. The world will always be ruled by the strongest, and only those with strength can protect the weaker from those who feel it their right to command, to make in their own image. These naysayers cover their fear with self-righteousness. But killing is not always murder, not that those upon their moral high horses, made safe by the blood of other people could ever see it. Killers certainly, they take lives by the blade and the bomb. Oh my dear children, paid to kill and slaughter and maim. Paid with a home made safe by spear and gun and blood. Paid in land, paid in money, paid in an education and the chance at better dreams and better lives than what they were born too. Are my lovely children hired murderers? Oh for sure, they are paid. They have no honor, their glory is a lie.”Ĭheap words, and easily spoken. “Hired murderers” I here the pathetic creatures say. There has never been peace, but there has always been war. I know we came to rule our part of the world after Jupiter, Hades, and Neptune slew their father and took his thrown for themselves. According to the Jews it took all of four people on this world for there to be murder and war. The Germanics even say this world was started by a war between three of their Gods and a Giant. Gods, Titans, and things even older all battled to start this world. Did they think the world was ever at peace? The world was born in war. ![]() It has always amused me when people speak out against war and soldiers. It is the deaths of soldier and enemies that have been my sacrifices of choice since I began. But my temple has always been the battlefield, unlike my husband Mars. Sacrifices of cattle and incense are rarer these days. Oh, they may not worship me today as they did in older times. Some wish to say bad things of my children. I have defended Republics and founded Empires. I have raised up kings and I have laid them low. Soldiers are my children, generals are my lovers. I am war, personified, deified, sanctified. I have marched to war since war began, and I will march to war long after men say that war has ended. I have ridden with chariots and marched with men. As this blog was created as a “temple” to her, I feel it goes here. Recently I read a post by a someone and something they said has Bellona wishing to convey her own message in response. This blog was set up for things involving the Cultus Deorum in general and Bellona especially. ![]()

Thank you so much!Ī clean, well organized, unapologetic sex toy store, in my former home town of Nampa, Idaho of all places!!!! Very nice, so glad to see that there are gems like this in uber conservative Idaho. I put far more than simple hope that future shoppers of this store will have just as much pleasure shopping here as I did. As such, thefts are a very serious thing to their bottom line as a store (really loved the "Wall of Shame," though!). I would like to emphasize that this was my personal experience at the Nampa store on Garrity, which, while sharing the "Adam & Eve" store name, is a franchise, and completely self-sufficient. All in all, I was buying a gift, so it really helped having someones opinion and expertise in something I had absolutely no synonymous analogues for. I felt more like a valued customer than a paycheck, which was wonderful. Adam and eve online store professional#Her demeanor and business ethic was impeccably professional and, more importantly in such a potentially embarrassing situation, incredibly inviting and informative. Immediately upon my entrance, I was greeted by Jessica, and I could not be happier that she was the one who helped me through the entire process. Much to my great pleasure, the staff was not only incredibly knowledgeable regarding any and every question I had, but the overall attitude towards customer service and salesmanship was a focus more on what is conducive to the customers wants and needs as opposed to simply trying to up-sell at every opportunity. Granted, despite the array of comically phallic pinatas surrounding the checkout area, the store was incredibly well organized and I was actually able to find what I was looking for very easily. ![]() My expectations were that I would be greeted halfheartedly by some disillusioned oversexed man or woman thinking, Oh, great, another perv, met by an inventory of haphazard smut that looked like the greasy underbelly of a San Francisco Chinatown store basement.

There is little romance for the Red Planet, nor appreciation for the mythical power its long held over humanity. ![]() Mars is incidental–a massive technical pain in the ass to be overcome. The series, created by Andrew Hinderaker, could’ve just as easily been about a group of soldiers doing an extended tour in Afghanistan or Iraq. However, “Away” is all about the angst of separation ( hence the title). That was the hook that first got my attention, anyway. The 10-episode first season of “Away” is, superficially, about a crew of astronauts preparing to land on Mars. ****PHOBOS & DEIMOS-SIZED SPOILERS AHEAD!!**** Now, Netflix has got a case of Mars fever with a new series starring Oscar winner Hilary (“Boys Don’t Cry”) Swank as Commander Emma Green, the leader of an intentional expedition to Mars. Clearly a second season was planned, but fortunately, it never happened. The show was a complete downer, and it (mercifully) ended just as the crew headed off for Mars at the end of the season. ![]() The series saw Penn dealing with a rebellious daughter and his own survivor’s guilt (after an explosion kills the first Mars crew), as he prepares to take off for Mars with a group of sad-sack astronauts. More recently there was a ten episode Hulu series called “The First” (2018) which starred Sean Penn as the most melancholy astronaut ever. It made going to Mars seem as thrilling as a proctological exam. Seriously, no one ever smiles on this show…ever. Hulu’s “The First” (2018) starring Sean Penn. It too, dealt with the isolation from Earth as well as the challenges of life in a hostile environment. Going back much earlier, there was the far less scientifically accurate, though no less enjoyable 1964 flick, “Robinson Crusoe On Mars”, which was one of the movies that first sparked my own interest in the Red Planet. Ridley Scott’s 2015 film is one of the most faithful book-to-film adaptations I’ve ever seen, faithfully capturing Weir’s story, as experienced through his smart-ass avatar, astronaut Mark Watney (Matt Damon). For me, the gold standard of fictional Mars missions in this past decade has been Andy Weir’s 2011 book “The Martian”, which managed (with only a few fictional fudges) to convey many of the challenges, engineering and otherwise, that would be involved in living on Mars for any length of time. Bit of quick preamble anyone who’s read this site for awhile probably knows that I am an irredeemable Mars-geek, and a sizable chunk of my book and DVD library relates to Mars, either through real-life probe findings or fictional Mars exploits. ![]() |
