If that got enough exposure, it could disrupt contemporary Salem's tourist economy and wreck any number of horribly cringe modern witches' identities. (Which would be kind of great.)

Respectability has also played a large role in racism, both historically and in the present.

«The point is not to decode these fragments into a coherent worldview. It is to see that confusion itself was the method. … Robinson’s casings were less about explanation than performance: designed to bait, to mislead, to invite interpretation while refusing resolution.»

Huh. Hadn't thought of it that way. I always saw whyt people shit as something created by Black folks as both humor and part of the "this not that" of racial identity. But I definitely see your point.

This was the letters column of magazines and newsletters. I miss it. Mostly. People were still idiots.

I'd settle for kids who are passably literate without algo-fried brains.

I also discovered Hedgerow Herb Co. next door, which is one of the best magical apothecaries I've seen. Highly recommend!

The scientific name of this variety of turtle is "you can find your own way off the road because I don't like being bit."

Seeing dark as "good" is still dualism, so not what I mean. The trads I'm thinking of mostly go back many centuries. While they sometimes advocate transgression of social norms, this has often been what modern society would think of as "good," such as questioning slavery and caste.

Seems like different understandings of what "enlightenment" entails, probably from differing understandings of reality? A non-dual perspective would understand ultimate reality as good and also bad. But many trads like that also emphasize compassion as the result of the realization of oneness.

"Union" is such a positive way to describe being devoured.

'The image shows an advertisement inside a London Underground train. The ad reads "Stop Hiring Humans" in bold white text, with the subheading "The Era of AI Employees Is Here" in smaller text, where "AI Employees" is highlighted in pink. To the right is an image of a woman with an artificial, digitally enhanced appearance, set against a futuristic purple and black background. The ad is for a company called Artisan, with the website artisan.co displayed. Above the ad is a portion of the London Tube map, showing stations on the Victoria Line.'
