I meant to answer my own question on this one and forgot!
How to get into a myslemir: Normal people cannot and never do.
Certain Mind elemental abilities allow it, but it's usually a combination effect. So, no octant Godbloods, only half and quarters who got lucky.

#FebruaryWorldbuilders If you have nonphysical realms in your setting, how can they be accessed? Can characters go there or somehow 'see' inside it? Does something else live there and come out when summoned?

If you currently have Ring, disable it, uninstall it. Don't support this regime's quest to kidnap and assault everyone who doesn't look white enough or objects to the fascism. If you must have a security cam, it's not difficult to set up your own closed-circuit system that no one else can access.
NEW: Ring has introduced "Search Party", a horrifyingly dystopian feature nominally designed to turn all of the Ring cameras in a neighborhood into a dragnet that uses AI to look for, in their commercial, a cute lost dog.
With Ring, US consumers are actually building a surveillance dragnet.

Lovely profile of a fantastic filmmaker, alongside everything else.
Cannot believe that I got to profile an extraordinary filmmaker, who happens to be the mother of NYC’s new mayor, and think about intersections of art and politics, and how familial love might produce a buffer against the corrosive politics and cynicism of our time. My story about Mira Nair:

I must apologize to Matsumoto because the last 2 reviews I have done of his books have accused him of being a bit backwards. He proved me wrong here. A surprisingly progressive thriller I was hooked from pg 1!

Suspicion by Seicho Matsumoto and Translated by Jesse Kirkwood
Kumako Onizuka is sure to be convicted of murdering her husband, everyone from the police to the entire population of her town knows she did it because journalist Moichi Akitani told them she did. He spent days tracking down every bit of dirt on her he could find and once he was sure that all of this pointed to the damning conclusion that Onizuka was guilty he published it.

BLUE SKIES and FROM NOW ON are companion pieces - they start at the exact same moment and tell the same story, but from two different characters' perspectives.
BLUE SKIES starts with a dad skydiving.

It's a feel and a flow. #Infernulls magic can do almost anything you want it but it requires the right mindset and learning how to do it, so spell creation is usually left to Magus who understand it better than a normal person.

How is magic actually performed? What kinds of speech or actions are needed to execute a successful spell? An ancient incantation? A hand sign? Martial arts movements?
Or is it enough simply for the caster to THINK their spell into existence?
