Simona Kossak
Simona Kossak was a Polish biologist, and animal advocate. She was said to have lived in a house in the forest with a lynx that slept in her bed and a pet crow named Korasek that would often terrorize and steal from people. Taking card keys, money, permits, and attacking people walking or riding bikes. Her interactions and care for animals would lead to many of them being loyal friends with her. One such animal was Żabka a rather large female boar Simona had raised since she was a day old, and that walked beside her and guarded her not unlike a dog. Even asking for pets and rubs. She also had a herd or "Pack" of deer that she cared for and would follow her around. She was a staunch advocate of animals and fought to defend the Lynxes and Wolves of Poland's oldest forests. This odd life style led many to call her a witch. Though perhaps in the oldest terms of the word they were not far off, as there is something magical about the way in which she lived.

On Mount Cyllene (Greece), the god Hermes fell in love with Penelopeia, disguising himself as a shepherd to win her love.
He brought their first child, shaggy with goat's feet, to Olympus, where the gods named him "Pan" ("all") for he made them all laugh.

Ragamuffin Day
Ragamuffin day was a nickname given to Thanksgiving as many Irish-Americans would dress up as devils, hobos, homeless, Indians, Blacks, and even cross dress and go door to door as amateur beggars. They would also perform traditional Irish Music while they did so. This was a continuation of ancient Mumming traditions from Europe. This version of the Holiday has since faded and been replaced with an annual Ragamuffin Parade in New York. It is one of the many examples of Mumming traditions that were in America but faded and became boiled down to Trick or Treating and Caroling in the modern day but was once far more widespread. The tradition was also celebrated with bonfires, mince pies, and many other traditions that have fed into modern Holidays.

Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is an American Holiday, descended of traditional harvest and hunting festivals of Europe. As well as arguably some Bear cult ones as well. The First thanksgiving as it is often called was by no means the first merely being used as a way of trying to unite the country as the myth of the Pilgrims and the Indians came about during the Civil War, and it was around this time that Lincoln declared it a National Holiday. Though the harvest feast had been performed for centuries beforehand. Various foods have been added to the table over the years, the Turkey is referenced in New England Thanksgiving Cookbooks, Pumpkin Pie was much the same, Macy's Parade started in the 1920's and Football and Thanksgiving have been joined at the hip for over a hundred years. This Holiday is about Family and Gratitude and should we treasured regardless of the nonsense spread about it by certain people in the modern day.

Hello Wastelanders of Modernity, today we spoke of "Saints" so well known to many of the wastelands. We spoke of their heathen origins, their use as propaganda, and how oddly many Catholics are unintentionally better pagans than some pagans. As the myriad…
The Cornucopia
The Cornucopia AKA "The Horn of Plenty" is an ancient European symbol of abundance. It may have found its origins in goats or Aurochs horns. The Modern image is known from the myth of Infant Zeus being cared for by Amalthea a nourishing Goat goddess. Who broke off one of her horns which provided unlimited nourishment. However the image of the Cornucopia is much older appearing in a 13K year old stone carving in France alongside a goddess figure. Or the Thousands year old depiction of the god Svetovid. Indicating that it is much older than it first appears. Other goddesses such as Abundantia and Fortuna are also depicted with the Cornucopia and the symbol has grown a life of its own. Being depicted in all manners of forms including as a coat of arms. Medieval Monks would often depict Mother Earth with a Cornucopia in Illuminations, The personification of Summer often holds one, and in America it is one of the symbols of Thanksgiving. A time of gratitude for kin and the time of plenty. -TLK
