Covid denialism is the anti-authoritarianism of fools.

He just left me a voicemail about it so here are Jesus Christ’s personal priorities for the rest of the year: 1) Ballroom 2) Ethnic Cleansing 3) Saying slurs in public 4) Unlimited heaven access for billionaires only 5) Dumping white phosphorous on schoolkids. Bless god!

So, true...but also yes I absolutely want to see a movie with accurate bronze age arms and armor.

The biggest problem in the occult is the thing that most often gets people involved in it is some form of acquisition (“low”) magick. This creates a feedback loop where many teachers focus on “results”. In previous times teachers were more guarded about handing out powerful techniques.

Seeing all of this borderline hagiography about Gordon White leaves a pit in my stomach. It’s like 2020 all over again in terms of people that I have to unfollow/ unsubscribe from or at least view with suspicion from now on.

I know the expected decorum is to not speak ill of the recently dead and be the bigger person, but in this case I just can’t. If what Cat Vincent is saying about Gordon White’s passing is correct, then he really reaped what he sowed. Using your platform to oppose common sense medical precaution

For those who might not recognize the name, Gordon White was a popular occultist / author / podcaster (aka Rune Soup Guy) who just died. Tho for many of us who weren’t his reactionary sycophants, he was dead to us years ago. Byeeeeee!

Today I am reminded that forgiveness as a nontrivial, meaningful process can only be given by those who were wronged, and can only be earned after the one who did wrong steps up into both responsibility and reparation for the wrong. Anyway, my condolences to the survivors of Gordon White.

Heard that Gordon “Rune Soup” White has died. Very sorry to hear that. Initially, I was a big fan of him and his work, and appeared on his podcast to talk about tarot and magic, but we had a very public falling out. I wish his spirit safe passage and comfort for those who loved him.

Today is ME/CFS awareness day. Myalgic encephalomyelitis/chronic fatigue syndrome. If you know anyone that has it, try to check in on them today. It is a debilitating illness. #ME/CFS #CFS #Chronicfatigue

I watched this video from a techie YouTuber the other day where he mentioned hackers had used an RSS exploit and then said something like “I didn’t know RSS was still around” and my jaw dropped. If anything the growing awareness of algoslop should be making it more relevant than ever.

Although it's so easy to do so, don't close yourself off to divinity; don't just live in your own little system. Zero-sum games only occur when you're disconnected to a broader whole. Learn to connect to—lean into connection with—divinity, for from that comes all goodness beyond our limited horizon.

In astrology the planet Saturn is associated with, among other things, death. In this font the H looks like symbol for Saturn, and the T looks like the sickle, which is associated with Saturn, having the same connotation as the Grim Reaper’s scythe.

I’ve been reevaluating my interaction with the internet again. Thought maybe I’d put this microblog on hiatus, but there are still enough active, interesting folks here to make it still worth checking out daily.

does anyone know where i can find the modern rules for monastic communities? i don't mean the broad rules that are easily available online, but the specifics (and not just catholic, but orthodox, buddhist, jain, etc etc).

“Jesus is God.” Brother, I’m pretty convinced at this point that YHWH isn’t God.

dear internet people: the gods of historical polytheism are not dungeons and dragons deities with clear and non-overlapping domains.

I hate that fake clearing your throat is a social convention. I have to clear my throat all the time and people think I’m telling them to get out of my way or something. How did society fuck up unobstructed breathing?

This is actual Skepticism, tho. Modern philosophers semantically screwed everything up.

The word “apologetics” doesn’t mean what it might seem at first. However, at this point in history the greater part of apologetics probably ought to be focused on sincere apologies.

STFU Autocorrect. “Effect” with an E is the correct word.

Snippets from Comtiq magazine's big RPG special in its September 1986 issue - and the Lodoss tabletop session serializations. At this time, with Dragon Quest just hitting Famicom (and initially selling poorly), RPGs are still synonymous with computers and D&D, just as they were outside of Japan.

🎉Happy Birthday to the Maestro of Fantasy, Frank Frazetta, who was born on this day back in 1928! Frazetta is beloved the world over for his pulpy paperback and comic book covers, featuring brawny warriors in bold acts of heroism.🧵

I’m between D&D campaigns and with the new season of Frieren I figured it’s the perfect time to rewatch the OG fantasy anime. #Lodoss
