hyperb0rean:

In the alpine region, many traditions that predate Christianity are still alive and revered by the local folks. One of them is the “Klausentreiben” during the night of the sixth of December. Young males dress up like animalistic spirits, like the bear, the deer and the wolf, and roam the streets while making loud noise. That was supposed to banish the evil spirits from the underworld that were believed to gain strength during the long winternights, threatening the well-being of the village folks and their livestock.

kinda ableist when people tell you to kill yourself in asks and replies and they just assume you know how to do that. my parents never taught me to kill myself and we didn’t have suicide classes at my school so… it’s not that simple
