I love the use of the phrase 'some strange alchemy' as a descriptor for a process you don't understand.

'Through some strange alchemy(crochet) they turned a bundle of yarn into a stuffed giraffe'

'Through some strange alchemy(bad cooking) they turned a perfectly marinated steak into a charcoal briquet'

'Through some strange alchemy(good cooking) they turned a pile of slop into the fluffiest bread loaf I'd ever seen'

'Through some strange alchemy(bad reading comprehension) they took my polite statement and turned into a disgusting act against the poor'

and so on

All of my friends must see this.

New piece! Am calling her “Skör” (fragile in Swedish).

Assembled from strips of lace, a doily, and some fiddly needle lace and crochet for the teeth. Starched with diluted wood glue.

Perfect in time for Halloween!

I have small visual ones, mostly Cats and people in peripheral vision that are DEFINITELY not there the next time I look...

and NEARLY CONSTANT auditory ones.

Reveille, people talking, cats meowing, tv on in another room, bells, footsteps, doors opening or closing loudly, sounds of beeping, or my phone making noises that it did not make. (those are ESPECIALLY FUN when I also get the accompanying physical hallucination of the phone vibrating when in my pocket when it is actually on the desk)

I know some of this is tinnitus... but other bits are NOT.

I have seen Loki do this.

Sins wrap around the Backside.

the social norm of “its your ethical responsibility to be constantly aware of, and angry about, every bad thing happening in the world at all times, even if you can’t possibly do anything about it” is possibly the best way I can imagine to create burnout and cynicism and depression in a population, so good job guys

Oh my god I love it.

this is last week's news for me but still i cannot believe I had an artifact from like 1300 AD just chilling in my fucking purse for a while there. the harsh terrain of my purse. the hostile environment of my purse. imagine surviving getting looted and melted by conquistadors and evading destruction and discovery for centuries while retaining your gorgeous golden luster and then you're jangling along in a leather bag with skulls on it. granola crumbs and uncapped eyeliner smudges all over you. knocking boots with two pocketknives and rubbing up against crumpled receipts. living life! or something like it.

I occasionally post Long Form Text Content. Stories about my Mental Illness... The other People that live in my head, and my interactions with my Gods. I guess it's either too weird or too churchy for people. There aren't a lot of folks who engage, probably because I am a trash panda, and no one has time for that.

does anyone ever feel a little disappointed sometimes by the witchcraft content we have, across all platforms? like there are so few people actually posting unique or interesting things, it feels to me like 95% of witch posts are the same 5 beginner concepts, tutorials, and psas over and over again. tumblr is definitely where ive found the most amount of unique posters who give insight into their own unique practices and theories or make actually good witchy shitposts, but still, how many posts about “how to make moon water” or whatever do we need…? i mean it is GREAT if you ever wanna look up beginner stuff, but its gotten so repetitive.

its also sooooo annoying how fake most of these posts are, or offensive, like “take this quiz to find out your spirit animal!” or “how to figure out if youre a born witch” or any other problematic clickbaity thing. also there so many aesthetic posts in the witchy tags everywhere, and tbf i do love witchy aesthetic things, but even then if you look closer so many of those posts are ai (FUCK ai) or the same 30 pinterest photos over and over again… theres also just a lot of spam and bots and people trying to sell you stuff in witchy spaces, which is annoying too 💔
