Well hello!

I'm Coyote (or Mae), and I have been practicing witchcraft intentionally for over 30 years, with an animist focus.

I live near PDX with cats, chickens, partner and teen.

My latest project is a new community, started with friends. Join us!

It was lovely to see homage to the Hunterian Museum’s Evelyn Tables in @realgdt.bsky.social Frankenstein. These four tables were made in Padua, taking arteries, veins and nerves dissected in Padua’s famous anatomical theatre, pasting them to boards and varnishing them to protect and preserve

I think this movie is one I can watch dozens of times and find something new each time. And it's just so beautiful.
There is, appropriately, a LOT of Lord Byron baked into @realgdt.bsky.social ‘s Victor & I love all the metatextual layers his Frankenstein has

I’m a purist, but every single change made for a better story and – I dare say – a far truer tale to the spirit of Mary’s original than anything yet

Witch Tip: An altar doesn't need to be confined to a small space. In fact, if you plan to practice invocation or evocation, completely surrounding yourself with the colors, symbols, scents, sounds, tastes, and textures associated with of those entities can strengthen your connection more.

If I had my way, I would do my thanksgiving feast at the Autumn Equinox because that makes more sense harvest wise in my climate.
I can't separate the BS narrative from the reality of how we as a culture have treated Native Americans always. Especially as the descendant of Oregon Territory pioneers

You may be looking at us and asking yourself what WE'RE thankful for this year.

Fair question, given *waves arms at everything going on*

It's been a tough year. The walls have been closing in as federal employees & public land lovers cling to the cliff side. This was not the journey we wanted.

If you, like many of us, are uncomfortable with Thanksgiving, you will understand why today is also designated as a Day of Mourning.

Them Magazine has compiled some activists you can follow!

Hope everyone gets to take this weekend to do some reflection, spend time with loved ones, and relax.

At what point will the press corps, as a chorus, in unison, just shout back, “THATS NOT TRUE”!

Happy Thanksgiving. I’m working in the studio & trying not too stress too hard about rent, but I have just 3 days left to sell at least 11 framed pieces to have it. An order over $100 will get you an original continuous line drawing, like below. Thanks for looking & I hope you’re having a nice day.

Disabled people deserve healthcare.

Disabled people deserve housing.

Disabled people deserve food.

Disabled people deserve support.

Our ability to work and produce for capitalism should not determine our value.

Disability is not a moral failing. Most people will experience it someday.

I can't believe VP Vance had the gall when mass graves at "Indian Schools" exist.
The United States is a nation where the number #1 cause of death in children is gun violence. America is where mass shootings in schools cannot possibly be ended because we believe in gun ownership over our children being safe & living to adulthood.
That’s a culture that believes in child sacrifice.
VP JD Vance stood before a crowd and tried to falsify history, claiming Christians ended widespread mass child-sacrifice practices among Native Americans

There’s an investigation into an Army doctor who was sexually assaulting, filming and even inducing labour without consent.

He may have abused up to 2,500 women.

Why isn’t this bigger news?

It’s the largest sexual abuse case in the military’s history.

Would it kill somebody to say “Nancy is not stupid.” It pains me to see the WH press corps just accept the abuse. Sends the wrong image to Americans and the world IMHO.

My deepest condolences to the friends & family of Specialist Sarah Beckstrom of the 863rd Military Police Company, 111th Engineer Brigade, West Va Army National Guard.
She had volunteered to serve this weekend & made the ultimate sacrifice.
May we find a greater peace within our nation.

This Thanksgiving carries weight. People who served with care were forced to rebuild from nothing. Still their work lives on. Still their service matters. Remember that today. 🦃🌾🍁❤️

I've been taking care of a doggo with dementia while her person is out of town, and I am just so grateful that I had been through that with my very closely bonded dog I had for 14 years. While it sucked, I'm in a position to give this person peace of mind, and it's my act of devotion to Hekate.

An annual reminder:

The cognitive & emotional toll of staying in contact with abusive family can be both significant & difficult to recognize.

There's a kind of social contract that abusive parents have violated. You owe them nothing. Nothing.

Thanksgiving doesn't change that.
