dionysos enorches

The Covid pandemic was a bad flu mixed in with a magic spell.
You might want to keep that to yourself.
Nah, that's a good one because I can explain it without coming across as too nuts.
Most people know by now how nonsensical those years were.

Paul can be moody.
Dionysos is very talkative.
Why do you think that is?
Dion was shut away for a long time while Paul had the run of the place.
Yeah, but Paul is quiet.
Why was I a quiet and shy kid?
Other people.
They try to dominate interactions.
It's endemic to the whole human experience where you notice this behaviour in sexual relationships and business because they are more raw in terms of showcasing behaviour and then we don't realize it permeates all walks of life.
You don't have a personality which is dominating and needs to control other people, however you don't want to be controlled.
This leads you towards withdrawing.
Thanks, doctor.
Why don't you exhibit this same behaviour as well, doctor?
Oh, there's no controlling me.
I'm it, the big kahuna.
There's nothing more than me.
You have an interesting confidence.
Yes, it's quite the thing to go through life knowing you're better than others.
How do you do it?
For the most part you shut up about it.

What do you think of the act in ancient Egypt of raising the Djed pillar?
It's hard to grasp it completely if you follow the interpretations of Egyptologists.
Why is that?
They are prudes.
It depicts the power of the life force to animate you.
How is that done?
In a male it's virility.
The pillar is your penis.
Osiris is the symbol and the strong life force in him gives him a huge erection.
I have pictures I took in Egypt at his temple in Abydos which will demonstrate this to you.
Nobody tells you this.
If you dig into ancient Egyptian thought, you come across the Heb Sed festival where the pharaoh had to prove his virility to the two serpent goddesses.
What did he have to do?
He'd masturbate in front of them to completion.
It's harder than you think when you get old.
What do you think bull cults were?
They are ancient parallels to Viagra.
The ancient Egyptians were using worship of the bull and magic for power.
One of those purposes was virility.
The pharaoh needed to be able to get hard.
Why?
That defines an alpha male.
It's all about strength and virility with a man.

The pharaoh needed a harem to maintain his virility.
He always had to prove he was virile.
Festivals.
Bull cults.
He needed to get it up like Osiris or they got rid of him.
Needed strength or he was ousted.

Do you consider yourself a bull?
You mean alpha?
Yes.
I don't compete with others for recognition.
Why?
If you must compete with other males for the honour of being an alpha male, then it's clear you aren't there.
Instead, I constantly demonstrate my superiority in whatever situation I encounter.
You make a good case.
If you are the top dog, which I clearly am, I don't need others to tell me that.
I see them come for me.
What do you do?
I get out of the way.
Why don't you fight them?
Because I'll destroy them.
You mean like Pentheus?
Don't pick a fight with me.
So, you're an alpha?
I don't pick a side.
You can't be both.
Why?
You must choose.
Who says?
Society.
Society says you need a role.
You are an alpha male or a beta male.
You need to pick a side.
I don't choose.
I dominate whatever game I choose to play.
I cannot deny that.
I submit when it gives me a perverse thrill.
That's the truth.
So, you really are Dionysos.
Who did you think I was?
Some random spectre I conjured from drug use.
Could be.
