I will always insist that fursona creation and trpg character creation are some of the purest forms of self expression available and an extremely valuable tool for figuring out gender and sexuality stuff. the ability to step out of yourself enough to create a persona you desire to inhabit frees you of the constraints that you place on your imagination. you might tell yourself - even without realizing it - “I will never have a deep voice. I will never be seen as unquestionably masculine. I will never be big or strong. so it’s best not to think about it” but when you create a character who is not exactly you but you get to be them, you will think of all of the things that you secretly think it would be cool to be. and you will get to be them.

devotaj:
I know some of you just went “SQUEE!”
And some of you just went WTF?
Demons. Everything in Judaism eventually comes back to demons.
Asher yatzar (Bathroom prayer) - toilet demons.
Breaking a glass at the end of a wedding - demons.
Psalm 91? Demons.
Bedtime Shema? Demons.
