The real problem with modern personal computing is that it doesn't involve enough mysterious liquids. Sure, there's always been thermal paste, and the steadily increasing popularity of water cooling in gaming rigs is a step in the right direction, but I think we can do better.

Syndicate dream

the devil, as in literally satan herself, has sent a missive to the grand hermetic chantry of my region, and from what I am noting other regions, to help root out an infernalist cult that has apparently started moving against the traditions. I don't know what to feel about this.

my trains of thought are marked in blood

And this is why you don’t join the vampires folks.

ooc: might wite something called "so you want to write a metaphysics"

The syndicate tried this, pre-truce days. My god did somebody die.

I approve this message. Nephandus hotspot.

@worldofdarkness.bsky.social you post entirely vampire context, I ask you, as the official order of Hermes account, that you make an occasional statement on mages, magick, and metaphysics. I know you love your bisexual vampires, but mages can be bisexual to. There is beauty if you find it.

Found out my mother has a 20 bean soup recipe, my lord, every year I find a new way to admire the audacity that woman had.

Ooc I find it really funny that the character of the hermetic archmage has a stake in the patricia taxxon drama thing(i am against her harracement.) because I’m just imagining this 50 year old wizard listening to techdog on a custom printed vinyl because they do not use the internet.

At a indie music event, my god the beauty.

ooc: doing the simple math. Assuming maximum sucesses on both ends, no tens/specialties to simplify. A arete 5 mage, with a forces attack. is doing 12 total points of damage. going Raw, a vampire has 8 health levels, assuming no other shenanigains, it would require fortitude 5 to survive.

OOC: my god, people will do anything not to seperate fiction from reality. They cannot fathom that something being disgusting in fiction does not mean that it isn't also inherently morally evil. yes Im getting mad about what happened to patricia, bite me i do not care

Im just gonna start tagging the technocracy every time I start arguing with the tremere, and tag the tremere every time I start arguing with the technocracy. It works so well. The apprentice has an image for this.

This is a perfect time for me to promote a project I like, but am no way affiliated with GNOME CHAT gnome.chat

YOU FUCKERS, @thetechnocracy.bsky.social

IM FUCKING BACK. And if anybody tries to fuck with me, or my apprentice, a maelstrom will unleash itself upon you.

being nonbinary is correct actually - Aleister Crowley. But for real, this is my first time reading through it, and thats what I cant help but think when I read this. Might unironically incorporate it into my paradigm. - Apprentice

People keep liking posts, and nobody is telling me what to do, how do i get somebody out of this state I know the basics of mind, correspondence, and forces.(arete 2 in each)

Is this normal for mages? I tried bringing it to another elder and they just said “oh good for him” without any explination.

This is the face of a true enemy. This man would destroy NATO and throw the world into chaos to get richer, even though he already has more money than he could ever need for himself and his family to live a good life for the rest of their lives. You know what to do.

update on that tazer project. It was a while ago, but I managed to actually do it. what i managed to do was set up an additional, tiny, lever. when flipped in place aligns seal one, this seal siphons off the process of metal. And then I move the lever, to the other position, it releases.

A career Hermetic physicist and I would have rigorous debates with woo folks about whether quantum physics could explain paranormal and psi phenomena.

(both in and out of character) one, great resource, two Did you really have to lable the section speaking on various forms of magick through intimacy gooning? hermetic.com/hermeneutico... I mean, come on people, show some respect for the hard working bouncers/meatheads out there. -Apprentice.

Hand me down advice, If you awaken a golem, you better be giving it rest on the Sabbath. Otherwise it will begin to thrash out violently in stress and overwork. - apprentice.

The Epstien stuff is bizarre and worth talking about, but I'd appreciate if we could all stop throwing around the word "cabal" without a second thought.

Since this question seems to be going around again, I will ask again: do you believe in magick?

Ooc: I straddle a strange line in the real world. Where I fully believe in magic, but we cannot act under the assumption that it is real, for purely practical reasons. Similar to my views on god. Despite knowing that there is a divinity, we must act like there is not. not sure if I should say why.

As I have learned over my time as a broke university student, there are only seven seas, it is not that hard to sail them. - Apprentice

... I think, I think I knew why I was drawn to Ornithomancy. I knew, subconsciously, that I shuffled the deck into that arrangement, that I cast the stones into that shape. but the birds exist outside my control, which allowed me to find a future, without having to fathom making it myself.

Its been a long time no see, hasnt it. Well, i offered to trade our names, earlier, but you refused. Said i valued mine to much, and you thought yours to little. Shall we go by titles then? For old times sake? I earned many more since I last spoke to you.

She wood on my water till I’m fire, till I’m earth, till I’m metal, till I’m water again.

only mages have true free will, that means that we must awaken as many as possible.

Were working on a rote that will solve this issue by teleporting all the blood outside a vampires body. Currently we are working on an way to ethically source the remaining plasma left in the victims of the chupacabra, a rare and expensive ritual component. Seeing as there is only one chupacabra.
