So I've noticed that depending on which platform you're on, there are way more people working with one demonic pantheon or the other. I am fairly new to demonology, and ive been trying to get into the worship aspect of it more. Currently, I only have an altar to King Bael, but I have room and the desire to build a second. so i stated looking into it more, and I think I'm leaning more towards working with the goetic hierarchy, but I might try both. Anyway, I might try to build the second altar to either Leviathan, Satan, or Lucifer. So, does anyone have experience with how any of those 3 interact with King Bale? Like, do they get along, because I have literally no way of putting them anywhere but next to each other.

so context, I have a crush on my best friend. It's purely romantic, I cannot make that clear enough. He doesn't know I have a crush on him (we're both gay), and I don't intend to tell him that I do because I want to preserve the friendship, and it wouldn't survive it. He initiates all contact, not just because I'm bad at things like asking for a hug, but because of the crush. I just feel like an a-hole for even accepting the hugs/ cuddles because while they are really nice, he very much does not like me back(I'm also touch-starved af). he makes jokes about us getting platonically married for tax benefits and stuff like that. So my question is, should i try to stop accepting the physical contact?

I'm planning a little devotion ritual for my birthday. Basically, some sort of pledge. I can't do anything too big, and right now I'm planning to make my own cake, and then when I blow out the candles, it's gonna be a thing. I'm also planning to have some other sort of candle, sort of a cord-cutting thing, because I have ties to Catholicism that I don't want. any advice for what else i can add/ do?
