Hi bluesky, how are you? It’s been some time since we all spoke. I have been hidden away, in a fair & secret chamber, absorbed in the practice of perfumery.
Various bottles and pipettes are arrayed around a central digital scale—this is a humble perfumer’s workstation.

Dust off the dream machine - we’re going back to 1993: a time when everyone was called Eden or Kali, and monk-ish mullets were the occultural vogue. Yes, it's Magazine Monday...!

Two animal allies in Southern Conjure & Rootwork are the raccoon and opossum. Raccoons, lil'bandits - sly, ultimate survivors; Opossums - cunning of life, death, & resurrection, wise trickster spirit sometimes connected to fire/Sun. (Post: 1/2) #SwampSunday #Okefenokee #AnimalAllies #FolkWitch

Maybe corny but it was helpful for me to hear Henry Rollins saying "this is not time to be dismayed, this is punk rock time, this is what Joe Strummer trained you for... You can be thunderous in your own life, to the eight people around you. That rubs off... Goodness is viral"

A lapwing, an owl and a goldfinch set in natural surroundings. Etching by A. Collaert, 17th century.
As described, depicted in a landscape, the owl has two butterflies each side of his head.

I’ve been thinking about how a lack of listening leads to a lack of learning which leads to a lack of understanding and therefore a lack of compassion.

I am going to try to have more of a “shut mouth, open ear” policy.

Here’s a humorous infographic for the gamers & for the metalhead of #metalsky !

For anyone confused about where I stand, hopefully this clears things up!

(See alt text for a translation, explanation of this visual joke)
In this image, a visual joke is made using acronyms. Here I will list the acronyms and explain what they stand for. The joke being made here is a political one, one which is expressly anti fascist. Yes to DSBM, or depressive suicidal black metal (it’s a real style of music look it up) Yes to BDSM, or kinky shit NO to NSBM, or national socialist black metal (nazi punx fuck off) Yes to SSBM, or the video game “super smash brothers melee” Hope that clears things up! Eliminate nazi scum!

Friend sent me this
A goodreads review of the Lesser Key of Solomon. One star. There are hundreds of D&D / RPG supplements out there to choose from, and in general I don't buy third-party supplements anymore, especially since my campaigns have been on hold for a while now. I bought this on a whim during the campaign of one of my long-term gaming partners in which my character intended to create a fake demonology book to give to the asshole necromancer who had raised us as various forms of undead and was keeping us in his thrall. This supplemental is actually not D&D or D20 specific, and is more descriptive, potentially useful for providing flavor to the campaign. The only real strength of this book is in the illustrations of the seals and the magic circles, which could easily be dropped into a broad range of settings, with or without modifications. Additionally the names of the various spirits could be lifted - some will be familiar, and other not as much. It would have been nice if the authors had chosen to fit more of these entities into the various pantheons of D&D, but they stuck with a Judeo-Christian background making this of limited value in most D&D settings. The presentation of the material is poorly organized
