@EternalEnglish A datacentre the UK can't afford to power, that Nvidia can't ship the GPUs for, and that will take longer to get grid connected than the lifespan of the servers
We don't need ANOTHER translation of the sagas. We need to stop trying to anchor the legitimacy of our worship to the undocumented practices of the past as though we can't be "proper" heathens unless we do it exactly like them.
For too many heathens, obsession with historical trivia has replaced any motivation to engage with the ancestors or Gods in the ways they manifest to us today. It snacks of insecurity, we are just as (perhaps more) able to connect & love with them as our ancestors (who certainly didn't preoccupy themselves with LARPing as their ancestors) did.
Heathen "academics" literally reprint the same texts ad nauseam while ventriloquising our ancestors with their own flavour of contemporary reactionary politics π€’
@BigHeathenBear I doubt the credibility of anyone who wasn't there to tell me what they actually meant. Especially those with a motive to twist the sagas for their own ends
