Did Dorothy go to her prom or not?

I remember a few different stories relating to Dorothy's prom and whether she went or not, for example:

Her and stan supposedly went and thats when she got pregnant

Then theres her not going at all and being caught dancing with a rake

Then she went with phil

And lastly there was the joke in the trudy episode where she tells a story about how she went to prom in her tennis whites.

So, did she go? Did she not go? If she did go, did she go with trudy and her friends? Phil? Stan?

(Apologies if this was spoken about before, im new to this subreddit and this has been bugging me for years lol)

Tales from The Hayfields

In the deep, dense, forest lived the legendary Harpy Hare. Wearing a bunny mask worn and weathered, who struck fear in the hearts of many a child. For if a young soul were to stray from the path or stay up too late she would snatch them right up, and to her harpy holes they would go.

But the Harpy Hare was not the only monster that inhabited the forest. No, for even deeper in his cave of terror lived the mighty Hartebeest, with thick brown fur, cloven hooves hard as stone, a mask made of a cow's skull and who stood as tall as two full grown men!

The Hartebeest had a habit for consuming children, but only to lure the Harpy Hare out of hiding. As the only thing that could satisfy his cruel hunger was the taste of her flesh.

Yet, even more terrifying than these monsters is The Hound, a giant black dog with blood-red eyes and teeth as sharp as swords lives just beyond the trees, in the deepest darkest depths of the forest.

Unlike The Hartebeest, The Hound is not driven by hunger, but by pure bloodlust. He kills for the sake of it, relishing in the terrible screams and crimson blood of his victims.

Even if you find yourself in the domain of these beasts, there is still hope. Beyond the cave of the Hartebeest, through the dark expanse of the Hound, You will find the Children of the forest.

They will lead you the rest of the way through the treacherous forest and take you to a wonderful place called "The Grove"

And whatever child happens to be guided there is given an opportunity to join the Children of the Forest—forever.

Can an Eclectic Pagan respectfully incorporate Jewish and Catholic practices/influence?

Ok so, Im a pagan but i was raised culturally jewish and religiously catholic (sounds like a lot i know lol) my maternal grandma was and still is a HEAVILY devoted Catholic.

While my paternal grandma started off SDA but then converted (or reverted?) to Judaism, We are also ethnically jewish through her parents.

We celebrate Hanukkah, Passover, Yom Kippur etc. so culturally and religiously ive been influenced by both Judaism and Catholicism so I would like to include some practices in my own religious beliefs of Paganism.

Catholicism has been the easiest one so far for me because veneration of the saints is not too far removed from a lot of Pagan practice but as far as the Jewish influence it's considerably harder to do respectfully.

Any thoughts/advice?

Question: would my veneration of Santa Muerte be respectful?

I am Puerto Rican, I have Mexican uncles by marriage who i spent a LOT of my childhood with and they were devotees of Santa Muerte. Ever since my childhood I have been drawn to her deeply and I was wondering if it's possible for me as a Non-Mexican Latino to engage respectfully in devotion to her as a way to make peace with death and mortality etc. In your opinion, would my veneration be seen as respectful or crossing a line?
