Re-posting for visibility!

FINALLY someone says it.

@morpheusravenna.bsky.social wrote an excellent blog about not surrendering to fascist tendencies in paganism. “A better world is possible. You don’t have to accept the logic of fear and appeasement. You don’t have to accept leaders who have given up on you.” www.bansheearts.com/blog/parable...

I wrote this about confronting fascism and fascist thinking within our communities, starting with a parable about wolves. #pagansky #witchsky #antifascism www.bansheearts.com/blog/parable...

Guaranteed to be great!

I often say that animism with a bit of folk magic is the ground state of humanity. Polytheist impulses can’t be suppressed for long. In every culture this tendency to connect to spirit worlds and these little daily magics resurface. #pagansky #witchsky

YESSSSS look at this queen!

As a person living with CPTSD I feel this so much. People don’t often talk about how physical trauma is, how much an illness of the body it is. It seizes your limbs and organ systems and sends them into spasm. Sometimes it feels like possession of a kind.

in a way, isn’t causing men to crash out before she’s even done anything just proof that Lupita is perfect for Helen of Troy

OpenAI is just “there’s a sucker born every minute” as a business model.

This summary of different early medieval literature is still one of my favourite things on the internet. #medievalsky

anyway I have quite a few of these jaunty little fellas all hand-painted with their gold suns ready to go out early next week if anyone wants one 👀 shop.frankduffy.co.uk/product/crow... #crow #witchsky #printmaking #art #skull

A cooperative artist-owned music platform!

New Orleans. I absolutely loved how there was art and music everywhere, and magic and spirit worlds were normalized. I couldn’t live well there in the southern heat but I definitely felt the kinship.

RIP to Gordon White, can’t say I’ll miss ya, but you sure were a real cautionary tale. The cautionary tale is the one about how getting too popular and surrounded by sycophants can poison your brain, till you find yourself sliding down the conspiracy-brained-to-reactionary-fascist pipeline.

This is your reminder that nothing human-made is inevitable and you hereby have all the permission you need to reject bad/harmful social, technological, and political paradigms and to work toward something better.

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

This is the core of my philosophy about art. It is an expression of being alive and a heritage of humanity, that everyone is heir to. Everyone can make art and participate in this legacy. Everyone.

This is so real

I’m extending this 25% discount on gift cards to May 15. A great opportunity to grab a discount you can use later for #tattoo hours, art, or anything else I offer. Tax season hit hard & we also lost our beloved Corgi this week, with some rly hefty vet bills to pay. squareup.com/gift/9DPCWB3...

This is exciting to me as a tattoo artist, I have really wanted to move toward a plastic-free practice.

Alan Moore on now.

Thought provoking thread about a different way to think about book piracy. On this topic I’ve tended to lean toward “please don’t steal from me, I need the income to live,” but I find @margaret.bsky.social ‘s point that a fan is more valuable than the cover price persuasive.

Here's a new print 💀✨💀✨💀 for all you crow, skull and ~happen~ fans out there, available in sizes A4-A1 (exact dimensions in the link). very grateful for all shares as always x shop.frankduffy.co.uk/product/it-w... #printing #crow #skull #art #artsky

Resharing, and now on top of taxes we are facing an eye watering emergency vet bill, if you know anyone who is looking for a tattoo artist please recommend me, I’m going to need a lot of work hours to catch up with these extra burdens. squareup.com/gift/9DPCWB3...

It's time for a seasonal special because your friendly local tattoo artist has to pay tax bills. Now through May 10, get 25% off gift cards. squareup.com/gift/9DPCWB3... I only offer this special a couple times a year so get yours now while it's here! #tattoo

Listen, I’m glad everyone is okay. But all day as pics from WHCA parties flooded my socials, I *could not* believe the political class is still fully opting into Trump’s games. Why was the press going through with this ritual with the SECRET POLICE President—the ‘deport them for speech’ thug? 1/4

Many people in my mentions proclaiming this the Reichstag fire, and it is very funny to imagine an increasingly-frustrated White House staging false flag after false flag, trying to get somebody to notice.

omg shots fired at the WHCA Dinner?? I hope no one is okay!

Whenever I get down about how many drafts it takes me to finish an article, I remember how many drafts of the Nefertiti bust were discovered in Thutmose’s workshop at Tell el-Amarna—each of which led up to the “perfect” one in Berlin today. I say this as I take my third pass on a short essay (sigh).

This!! Talent isn’t real. It’s just passion + practice (and it helps a lot if you have the social supports that allow for sustained practice)

My favorite art history genre is "Judith beheading Holofernes"

A really cool article about the long entanglement of Gaelic animistic folk beliefs and the Otherworld with rebellion and resistance movements. A great read from @scottishfolkmagic.bsky.social #pagansky #witchsky cailleachs-herbarium.com/2026/04/fair...

Trump is within sight of an under 30% overall approval rating. One of the most important causes right now is to establish a media narrative and popular support behind severe punishments and consequences to our present criminals running things.

Cursed idols are always ancient. You never see a cursed idol from like 2015. We need to restart cursed idol production for the benefit of future generations
