For adult souls things are fairly simple.
The hell hag 'Datsue-ba' (奪衣婆) strips them of their clothes (if naked, the soul is flayed!).
The clothes or skin are hung on a branch by the old oni Keneō (懸衣翁) to determine punishment (the more the branch sags the worse the penalty).
Inside #Hell
The #GreerCenter was supposed to be a refuge for people with developmental #disabilities. But accounts from inside the secretive facility paint a starkly different picture, depicting a place where helpless patients faced #beatings, #waterboarding & constant #fear.

The “Last Judgment” by 15 century’s Maerten de Vos is meme-worthy. An epic piece of trolling. #demons #hell #art #renaissance

Something different, here's a red drawing made in 2029 in Athens. I didn't use red paint, it's the support that's that colour.
There are 3 drawings in this style, I'll post them tomorrow and the day after, saving my favourite for last :)

The latest, not so typical #painting by #Egyptian #artist Abdullah Wgih.
#Gaza is a #Netanyahu-made inferno, a #death-zone, and a #hell on #earth for the #Palestinian #children (and all adults, too)!
Most Christians act like they don't believe in their own #religion or that their #Deity is stupid, so I just assume they are all #dishonest & act accordingly.
Hasn't failed me yet.
If there is a #Hell, I will see those #hypocrite #Christians there.
It's not safe to #fly. Massive dysfunction in air traffic controllers and coordination.
It's not safe to #eat. Record numbers of tainted food, water, pharmaceuticals.
It's not safe to #breathe. Covid. Measles. RSV. TB. All rising out of control.
It's not safe to walk in street because some #Nazi with a fucking Federal badge and a gun wearing a mask might #kidnap you and send you to another country if you say the wrong thing.
This is #Republican America. #Hell On Earth.
