@ravingsockmonkey.bsky.social Happy birthday!

Today is a grey, cold, rainy (Saturday) November morning. Time to start a reread. (It doesn't say here it is Saturday, but elsewhere you find out the next day is Sunday)

As always Dr. Manhattan and I are on the same page.

There are layers of this in my basement at this point. Someone tears up the carpet? What the hell are these weird symbols on the floor? Someone tears up the subfloor to get rid of the symbols? Why are there even more strange symbols on the cement? Walls are worse but painting over is different.

My office is relocating to a block away from my fifth favourite cemetery in the city. I might have reason to go in now. It has a small island in a river, under a huge willow tree, inside the cemetery. Of course that's a fantastic place for chöd.

Me: [Neighbour] told me ... Partner: And you can tell her to mind her goddamn business. *Stops wide eyed* Tell your grandma I don't want to channel her. M: The altar is over there, you tell her. P: No. She's scary M: It was worse when she was alive and you couldn't ignore her

Partner: I'm going to the plaza need anything? Me: A small jar, a pack of box cutter blades, and a whole jalapeno. P: ... And this person deserves it? Me: Of course P: *sigh* Okay, I'll see what I can grab.

I dunno man, try listening to marginalized people *before* shit goes wrong, and maybe it won't keep being like that

Three of Scythes - Buffy Tarot #TCotD #BuffyTarot #TarotSky This card hurts, it might be my favourite card in the deck.

The Tower - Buffy Tarot #TCotD #BuffyTarot #TarotSky amzn.to/3VV5kXJ This is hands down one of the best media themed decks I have in terms of completeness and understanding the content.

The most unrealistic part of the Stargate movie is the fact the Stargate wasn't found in the British Museum with the rest of Ancient Egypt.

It's a chore.

King of Swords - Aztec Tarot #TCotD #AztecTarot #TarotSky One of my favourite cards, cause Hummingbird is my boy, as they say.

@ravingsockmonkey.bsky.social Oh hai! You found me. Welcome to the weird. Guess I should look at things other than just my mentions.

I know Psalms are traditional to use, but Ezekiel 17:9 also works.

We are the Ash of Stellar Alchemy emerging into consciousness. Don't emerge as an asshole, choose compassion. Don't make the Cosmos regret experiencing itself through you.

Knave of Hearts - Austin Osman Spare Tarot #TCotD #AustinOsmanSpareTarot #AustinOsmanSpare #TarotSky AOS's personal deck, thought lost until a decade ago. He just drew on whatever card stock he had, so the backs are several colours, and even their flaws were reproduced (crease marks etc)

The Moon - Agatha All Along Tarot #TCotD #AgathaAllAlongTarot #AgathaAllAlong #TarotSky I like this take on the Moon, it's clever in the context of the story.

My manager said I might want to become a work mentor, that I have "a lot to offer, a wide range of skills and knowledge." I don't think that would go the way he thinks. Mentee: This coworker and I keep butting heads Me: So first you need a jar, lots of honey, some old copper pennies, a candle, ...

I never thought I would see this in my life, and that they’re making it immediately generic so it’s affordable is making me want to cry

One of those messages didn't thread yet, glad I numbered them. Posts brought to you by me giving offerings to my Wild Space, and some non-conventional requests to my local spirits. (My Wild Space is a 4x4 square of land in my backyard that I leave untouched for some of the local beings)

Do not neglect work with local spirits, thinking of them as only beings of place and nature. We live with them, on them and in them, they have more influence than a lot of people realize. Think of them like neighbours (ignore Good Neighbour jokes/comparisons), life is easier when you're on good 1/?

Just prepping for the weekend here
