One Sussex question in Parliament since New Year
Caroline Ansell, the Conservative MP for Eastbourne, does not ask many questions from the Government when the Parliament is closed down but on Thursday she asked a significant question and interestingly she was the only Sussex MP who has asked any questions since the New Year. The theme of the question “Wind Power” and the person who is responding her question is Rebecca Pow Minister for…

Hello!! I was wondering if you have any book recommendations for Appalachian folk magic? Especially for a beginner, I’m familiar with our local “old wive’s tales” but I’d love to learn more!!
Hello there! I have answered this question before but I have some new resources so I'll list them here!
It really depends on which part of Appalachia you are looking at! And if you want to dig deeper the ancestral roots of the family you are looking at. For example my family has a lot of Welsh and British influence because that was our family source so a lot of those beliefs lingered and changed throughout the years!
Someone from Pennsylvania would likely have a lot more German roots for their practice. But despite the root differences for the folklore these practices stem from they do still share a lot of connecting points!
But having babbled all of that here are my favorite books on AFM specifically. (Mind you Christianity takes a super huge part in the practice so a lot of bible and doing things in threes for the Trinity is involved!)
Authors to check out:
H. Byron Ballard- A pagan who also practices AFM, from the NC side of Appalachia, a lot of people hate her writing style which is a bit ramble-y. I also dislike the term she uses for her own practice but that is a super simple and small complaint honestly. I own all of her books on the subject, which should say something.
A NOTE ON H. BYRON BALLARD: I no longer support her work after discovering she is a TERF. I will no longer be suggesting her as an author to follow.
Jake Richards - From Eastern TN like me! A lot of what he talks about are things I have seen before, and he breaks down complex concepts like burn blowing into something relatively easily understood. HOWEVER HAVING SAID THAT the author is partially Melungeon, so he does have some Hoodoo mixed in from his grandmother's side iirc? He does label these things in his works and explains that they are not for everyone which I do appreciate.
Rebecca Beyer - While vaguely Wiccan toned, which I attribute to her publishers/raising, she's a transplant to Appalachia and if you're looking for herbal information on Appalachia and to wax poetic about how even with a ton of people settling there SO MUCH of the natural herbs and plantlife still survive, read her work! Her work on foraging safely and environmentally is so SOOOOO good.
Brandon Weston - For Ozark Mountain range/German/Dutch Appalachian work! He has written quite a few books on the subject and all of them are a treat!
Roger J. Horne - For how to dig into folklore and apply it to your own practice! This author is pagan and does blend in some traditional work with the Appalachian but I do enjoy his work and how he applies folklore. This author is also FROM Appalachia which is nice to see.
INDIVIDUAL BOOKS TO READ:
Appalachian Folk Healing by Jake Richards - A republication of a very old book on remedies and 'spells', while kitschy and stupidly worded, after all it was a popular book created just for sales reasons, some of these remedies are things I remember having done to me! Good for both a giggle and actual information. TW for mentions of animal parts, hunting, illnesses, the G slur, period specific phobias and racism.
Albertus Magnus - These books all supposedly written by an ancient guy, were actually mildly common on traveling salesmen's trucks and wagons. So as a result a lot of people in Appalachia had access. Like the book above it is very stupidly worded and definitely of their time. Same TW as above.
Pow-Wows or Long Lost Friend - Another Pennsylvania Dutch book! Very good and very clear.
Southern Folk Medicine - A book that breaks down a lot of common medicinal beliefs in the South which does include Appalachia! Sadly not just Appalachia but a very good book regardless. THIS BOOK MADE ME UNDERSTAND THE THEORY BEHIND BLOOD ISSUES MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE EVER HAS.
Moon Eyed People - A collection of Welsh folktales that brewed within Appalachia from Welsh immigrants. Very good book imo!
Granny Buck's Dibs and Dabs - This book is so worth the price tag! One of the more expensive books in my collection, but I'm fine with that. Granny Buck covers a lot of topics and I can feel the accent through the wording!
Signs, Cures, & Witchery - More German Appalachian stuff! This book and it's interviewees are from the Kentucky side of the mountains!
Witches, Ghost, and Signs - This book is based more in the Southern Appalachian area! Georgia, SC, NC, and TN specifically! Lots of folklore here, but does mention some not so great bits of the lore, but that is expected.
The Foxfire Books - What began as a school project exploded into a collection of true to life stories and idioms from Georgia elders within the mountains. SO SO GOOD OKAY? For everything. How to plant, hunt, make musical instruments, anything from the mountains? They cover.
#buggy answers#afm#appalachian folk magic#This is by no means a complete list.#But a good starting off point!#book reccs

hiii you guys want another blue ticket fic blurb here’s brady and his little friend he meets in the brig. heavily inspired by coming out under fire, a guy that interviewed used rebecca as a drag name in his brig <3
“You ever seen the movie Rebecca?” Bec asked suddenly. He was peeling at his bottom lip with one finger, a fleck of skin catching between his nails before he flicked it to the ground. His voice was softer now, light, like he was trying to coax a skittish animal into staying still.
Johnny pressed his tongue against the inside of his cheek. It was Mary who’d dragged him along to see it, wasn’t it? She’d made him lie to their mama about where they were going and say they were off to Road to Singapore.
The memory was hazy now.
“Don’t think he wants to talk to you, Bec,” a voice muttered from the cot against the far wall.
Bec waved him off without even looking.
“Ignore him,” he said, a faint grin tugging at the corners of his mouth. “One of those crazy sleep-talkers.” He continued, expression expectant.
Right, his question.
An affirmative hum seemed to be enough for Bec, who relaxed slightly, his shoulders easing against the wall.
"You know how they call her that whole long thing? The lovely and ever gracious Rebecca de Winter," He said. "That's what my buddy would call me, the whole thing- never anything less than that mouthful."
“Did-" Johnny started and the word caught in his throat. He swallowed and tried again. “Did your, uh, your buddy,”
“Did he get picked up too?” Bec finished for him. “Sure did. 's why my sorry ass is here."
He'd snitched. Johnny completed in his head, hairs on the back of his neck feeling scratchy. The next thought that proceeded was Benny and he swallowed thick, digging the toe of his boot into the wall.
"It doesn't sit right with me to be angry at him," Bec continued after a minute without prompting, and Johnny figured from the way his voice shook that wasn't completely true. "Y’know? He did what he had to. Wasn't a POW- didn't have the frame of reference to see how this," he gestured toward the walls, "really isn’t so bad, all things considered. Would be a different story if Eisenhower was callin’ up General Homma for pointers,"
Homma. Johnny frowned, the name rolling around in his mind until it landed. Bataan.
Bec didn’t say it, not outright, but with the way his voice had gone rougher on the edges Johnny didn’t need to ask. He let the silence stretch out and Bec broke it first, fingers tugging at his bottom lip again.
“So," He started, tone cautious. "You were over in Europe, huh?
“Yeah,” Johnny mumbled, picking at an already torn cuticle. “Sat the last half of it out in a stalag.”
“Rough spot.” Bec said simply.
Johnny bobbed his head from one side to another, chewing at the inside of his cheek again.
“Not as rough as Bataan,” He said low before he could think better of it, and the corner of Bec's mouth twitched.
“Ain’t a contest, kid,” he said, letting out a dry chuckle. “Least we weren’t marchin’ through snow.”
Johnny looked down again, his jaw tight.
Bec leaned forward, his elbows digging into his knees, his hands dangling loosely between them. “You figure you’d rather be there than here?” he asked, his voice low.
Johnny opened his mouth, then closed it, and Bec leaned back, gaze drifting towards the bars.
“Hell, I’d probably pick a German stalag over this mess too, if I didn’t know better,” Bec said, quieter. “But the thing is, it ain’t just about the place. It’s about who’s got the keys.” He paused, his jaw tightening slightly. “These bastards don’t care about keeping the game going. Just as easy for ’em to smash all the pieces and pretend the board was never there to begin with.”

“Hopefully, they course correct this fall. The fact that they won’t do a public remembrance for QEII makes me think they know they have to keep the focus on Charles and the new reign.”
Agree with the whole back to business as usual approach. And I think when it comes to the above the cancelled state visit to France also put a bit of a dampener on things…Germany was great and the turn out there showed that C&C do have the pulling big crowds factor - but the glam that a French state visit was kinda missing.
I also think there was an element of allowing a bit of time to pass with relation to QE2’s death but also the “keep calm and carry on”/“never complain, never explain” business as usual served the whole family extremely well with relation to the onslaught of attacks from H&M at the start of the year.
So i can see why folks thinks it’s been a bit “meh” but in the long run (almost a year out from QE2’s death) I think, it’s once again shown to have worked pretty well and how effective it can be in a modern day and age.
As for upcoming events; I know that there is a trip to Kenya coming in September for C&C, William is in NYC for a few days for earthshot and according to Rebecca English of the mail, there are other trips planned from September onwards that she can’t really discuss right now.
I think things will pick up in the fall. And I bet the cancellation of the French visit derailed things. They likely had other events/pr planned around it, so the schedule had to be truncated or modified.
But that’s life. It’s what happens when you have other plans.
There’s one aspect of this that I find really interesting. I thought there was a very overt effort before and during the coronation to downplay the Cambridges ascension to POW status in favor of focusing on Charles ascension to the kingship. This made sense to me, and I thought the Waleses still managed to mark their ascension and give it significance, through clothing choices, video, speeches, etc…
I expected this to continue. I thought they would try to steadily elevate Charles throughout the summer, but they didn’t. Charles’ team went back to business and usual.
But the Waleses stuck to their subtle ascension pr with Wimbledom, Duchy homelessness initiatives, Earthshot, focus on the next generation, etc… I feel they’ve done that very effectively and I don’t understand why Charles’ team hasn’t done the same. Part of it was, as you point out, the French cancellation. However, I hope they get back on track and focus on evolving his image.

Emailed my MP (Rebecca Pow) and got a reply where she managed to only mention Hamas once, she still mentioned them though, she still seems to think that most of the blame lies with them, and at this point i really dont' know how anyone can act like this. my mum and grandma both gave me permission to send her emails from them, would this make any difference? I'm not going to stop emailing her, but it's so fucking disheartening that she can't even be distressed by a literal genocide
yes emailing your mp absolutely makes a difference it puts pressure on them the election is coming up soon so keep applying pressure

The Prince of Wales is visiting @DepaulUK to highlight their work helping young people experiencing homelessness/insecure housing. I revealed last year that homelessness is going to be a big part of William’s work as PoW. Notably his mother visited the charity 3 times in the 90s -- Rebecca English

Stalking thwarted? The PoW is not going to NYC in September per Rebecca English. by u/Von_und_zu_
Stalking thwarted? The PoW is not going to NYC in September per Rebecca English. https://ift.tt/KzdFEoS, I'm pleased William never intended to go to NYC in September. No one should change their plans for Harold. He simply is not that important.Edit to add: I'm very amused at how quickly the "will they/won't they meet" nonsense was shut down.

Global Plastic Treaty: UK Leads Charge
The United Kingdom and over 170 other countries made incremental progress this week towards establishing a pioneering legally binding treaty to combat plastic waste and pollution worldwide. At the 4th round of United Nations negotiations in Canada, the UK successfully advocated for provisions on restricting "problematic and avoidable" plastic products and materials to be incorporated into the draft treaty text. However, significant disagreements persist amongst negotiating parties over the scope and ambition level, potentially putting the timeline for finalizing the pact by year's end at risk. UK Playing "Key Role" in Shaping Treaty "As a member of the High Ambition Coalition, the UK has continued to push for an ambitious treaty covering the full lifecycle of plastics," stated Environment Minister Rebecca Pow. "There remains substantial differences between parties on the level of ambition for the treaty, which has meant that progress has been slower than we would have hoped on some key areas." Highlights from the UK's involvement included: Getting its proposals on limiting certain plastic goods and packaging into the draft text Securing agreement on a program of expert working groups to inform the treaty ahead of the next negotiating round Setting up a legal drafting group to ensure precision and clarity in the pact's language Analyzing and streamlining the draft text to focus the remaining negotiations Binding Treaty Seen as Urgent Priority With public and political pressure mounting amid overflowing landfills, polluted waterways, and pervasive microplastics, there is a growing global consensus that a legally binding international agreement is critical to making a dent in the plastic crisis. Moreover, the UK is part of the 65-member High Ambition Coalition advocating for the treaty to include mandatory provisions tackling plastic's entire lifecycle - from production and use through disposal and waste management. However, some major plastics-producing countries remain resistant to strict international rules they fear could hamper their manufacturing sectors and economies. Final Push at Last Negotiating Round With those key sticking points still unresolved, the path ahead for reaching a final treaty by the November deadline looks challenging. "There remains significant work to do to secure an agreement at the final negotiations," Pow acknowledged. "The UK is committed to securing the best outcome for our oceans, communities and wildlife." The UN member states have just months to bridge their differences on issues like product bans, recycled content requirements, and monitoring and enforcement mechanisms before the 5th and likely final round of negotiations scheduled for late 2024 in South Korea. Find out more about the UK's role in cracking down on Environmental waste. Sources: THX News, Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs & Rebecca Pow MP. Read the full article

hi
movie star
I think we should start looking at the blocking.
Josh, you want to set that up?
Right, thanks, Rebecca.
Oh, thanks.
It's okay?
Yup. welcom to rebecca im good
//
So…Marilyn Monroe, she was part of the, you know,
the actor's studio.
Mm-hm.
We should see it. The classes, the characters.
Okay, the problem with that is that in this scene
we just don't really have enough time to get into all of that.
But that's exactly my point.
There really isn't time in any of the scenes
to dig into her psyche.
They're too short.
I mean, personally, I'd rather see longer scenes
and a little less singing and dancing.
Heh, well, it is a musical after all.
Yeah, but it doesn't mean it can't be deep and smart.
I mean, and that song, it's boring.
I mean, it should be more fun.
Okay, you know what?
Um, this sounds like a longer conversation.
Wha…Uh…
I'm driving you crazy, aren't I?
No, not at all.
Yes, yes, I am, I know.
I'm such a pain in the ass.
[Cars honking]
Boring! She thinks my music is boring.
It might be a little less boring //
You see? This is exactly what I'm talking about.
This scene, it's just getting started
when suddenly I… ? Break into song ?
You know what?
Uh, this sounds like a sidebar conversation.
I didn't want to interrupt the rehearsal, the--
Not to worry.
I think everyone could probably do with a break.
Okay, that's ten.
Oh, um, don't forget. // And if she wants you to write an extra-long scene
before dig deep, you will write that extra-long scene
and you will have it on my desk by 5:00, understood? // Anyway, the real reason I came by
is to talk about the scene.
I just got the pages from Julia.
It's inspired.
She's such a talent.
Mm, I agree.
In fact, it gave me so many other ideas
on how to deepen the rest of the show.
Oh.
I'd love to get everyone together for a pow-wow. // ou run a bar in the city
you're gonna get your hands dirty.
But if you're looking for a way out of this with me,
you're don't have to hire a Detective.
Just tell me you're not interested.
I'm not looking for a way out.
It's just…
I've been through a lot.
Okay.
So now we're getting somewhere.
And I'm out of practice.
You can take this as slow as you want.
You're the one who's always rushing around.
I'm just such a… //
We have a lot to show you.
Wonderful.
Okay, ladies and gentlemen,
let's take it from the top, please.
Rebecca, you ready?
You better believe it.
The challenge for the act is to use sense memory
of childhood trauma.
All: ? Aaah, use the past ?
The actor must deploy the conscious
and dig in to the unconscious.
The challenge for the actor is to learn to be private.
I dig it the most.
I'm through with Hollywood.
It's New York and the actor's studio for me.
And if any of those boys from Hollywood come a'calling,
you can tell them I said this… // rebecca unable to sing tom says great they will sit down she is on key find costructive solution we need ivi back real ivi need tosing debra and tom ivi enters rececca sings with tom dev and kathy talk rebecca talks to derek actors studio songs boring
she thinks boring - tom angelina calls

Karen, can I talk to you for a moment, please?
Sure.
Everything okay?
Why, did I do something wrong?
No, no, sorry.
I'm just letting you know I won't be needing you anymore,
obviously.
For Marilyn, I mean.
You won't be needing me?
I wouldn't be so sure of that.
No, I mean, Rebecca's gonna be needing all my attention.
And I'm just the understudy. I get it.

I email my mp pretty regularly, and i've been emailing her about israel specifically since 2020, and she's always been very pro israel, but i just got a reply from her on an email where I detailed the story of Hind (the 7 year old girl who called for help only for the paramedics and then herself to be shot) and she said she's written to the government on my behalf is this good news? It feels more hopeful than her pro israel nothing statements from before my mp is rebecca pow r
Sorry for the late reply
This is very good and a reminder to everyone keep applying pressure to your MPS protests, email them, bring it up at events they do
Labour and Tory are only starting to change course because the public is forcing them to this stuff works
