There's No Cutting Out This EVIL! "Brain Tumor" reviewed! (MVD Visual & Whacked Movies / DVD)

Watch the Deadly Growth of the “Brain Tumor” on DVD! World-renowned but virtually unorthodox and cursory neurosurgeon Dr. Seymour Caligari removes yet another brain tumor with relative ease from a cancerous-afflicted patient.  After the large golf ball sized tumor is discarded for oncology dissection and study in the lab, the once lifeless biological malignant specimen escapes from the medical…

Can I just say for all the people saying Belos ‘deserves a pathetic death’ and alike, I agree but it’s not about the death itself. He didn’t suffer, he died thinking he was right and trying to continue his manipulation, trying to start all over again. I think for his death to be truly satisfying he needed to remember, he needed to be plagued with visions of the past and the consequences of his actions, how they have amounted to nothing and destroyed his body and his mind in the process. I wanted him to realise, and this could have happened AND them leaving him to die in the rain and stomping on his skull. I understand most people watching the owl house aren’t looking for signs Belos is completing the hubris, harmatia, peripeteia, anagnorisis timeline of tragedy like I was because I keep thinking abt him through the lense of my tragedy course lol but I really wish he had that anagnorisis, that moment of realisation. I just wish he didn’t die thinking he could be martyred in any way for his efforts and death for his cause hmm

Edit: SORRY I turned reblogs off bc this was meant to be just throwing a thought out there before I rewatch the episode tmr and my opinion may change and I am not in a mental state to debate things or respond to people atm

Inktober Friday the 13th

Viernes 13

Cuenta la leyenda que un viernes 13 Eva tentó a Adán con la manzana; qué el Templo de Salomón fue arrasado; y que una confusión obligó a abandonar la construccióndela la Torre de Babel. Dicen, también, que un día así Jesucristo fue crucificado.

Aunque muchas personas evitan tomar decisiones importantes en esta fecha por temor a la mala suerte, otras reconocen el viernes 13 como una oportunidad poderosa para conectar con la energía divina, especialmente con la energía femenina y lunar. En culturas antiguas, el número 13 ha tenido connotaciones profundamente espirituales, particularmente relacionado con los ciclos de la luna.

Por ello, este número representa transformación, renacimiento y poder femenino ya que se asocia con los 13 ciclos lunares que ocurren cada año. El viernes, día tradicionalmente consagrado a Venus, la diosa del amor, la fertilidad y la creatividad, también contribuye a que el viernes 13 sea visto como un momento oportuno para la introspección y el empoderamiento personal💫

The golden, misty, mysterious magick of autumn stirs colors in the soul of the Art Witch

Let's explore a bushel of ways to bring your creative magick out to play this season with 13 Autumn Inspired Grimoire Prompts!

1) Record an autumn color collection. Create a page cataloguing the autumnal colors you notice in your environment to heighten your magickal vision and drink in the seasonal beauty

2) Dab cobs of corn with paint or ink. Roll the corn cob onto the page for harvest inspired textured backgrounds or papers for later use.

3) Create a page dedicated to all of the beautiful poetic names for the autumn moons: Harvest Moon, Singing Moon, Wine Moon, Sturgeon Moon. Make up a name for a full moon inspired by your own environment.

4) Write a list of all the teachers you are grateful for: spiritual, craft, vocation, ancestral, animal, digital and academic teachers.

5) Trees are the star of autumn. Dedicate a page to honoring Dryads! Leave your book in a tree overnight for tree blessings and green magick inspiration.

6) Experiment painting with fruit juices to invoke bountiful harvest energy. Try pomegranate, cranberry, berries and wine

7) Use acrylic paint, paint pens or metallic paint to decorate dry leaves with patterns, words of power and symbols for all the blessings of the season.

8) Make a cornucopia shaped pocket. The cornucopia is a powerful symbol nourishment and spiritual abundance. Tuck drawings, magazine cuttings, words or symbols inside the cornucopia pocket to invite abundance and gratitude.

9) Write an affirmation to help you navigate change gracefully.

10) Use boxing tape to create specimen tags of autumn herbs, flowers and leaves. Sprinkle or place your dry botanical specimen on the sticky side of the clear tape. Seal with a second piece of tape and burnish out the air bubbles until the tape is flat. (These make fabulous mini spell book marks!)

11) Compose a letter to Themis, the goddess of Balance, Justice and Equality. (Her feast day is September 28th.) Ask her to imbue you with Reason, Fairness, Truth and Justice

12) Mushrooms galore! Celebrate mushroom magick in your book: Draw mushrooms from life, write a recipe using mushrooms, learn the names of mushrooms in your area or research mushroom myths and lore.

13) Create a dark mirror in your book. Paint one side of a piece of clear plastic packaging or page protector with black paint. Adhere the plastic to your grimoire page *shiny side out*, painted side in. (This gives you a reflective surface.) Draw or collage a frame for your dark mirror and scry away!

for the tarot rpg ask game! The Fool, The Empress, The Hierophant, The Chariot, The Hanged Man, The Devil, The Tower, The Star, The Sun

This is so many questions!! I am gonna have to go a little shorter for each of them, but thank you for your interests lmao.

from the RPG Designer tarot ask game

The Fool – What do the earliest stages of work on a game look like for you? OR How did you get into game design?

Games start one of two ways for me: either I think "there should be a game that feels like X" or I think "I want to write about Y and I think for one reason or another a game is a place to do it." That second option is usually just the first option wearing sunglasses, anyway — since the main reason I might write something as a game (rather than a poem, short story, etc) is to try and get that experiential edge, where I'm not just conveying what I'm thinking to you but you the reader/player can dig around in it (and see why I feel a way about something). Then I start writing. Usually pretty freeform. Lots of lists of things. Lots of stream of consciousness "I want it to do this so therefore it must include that" until I start to get a better picture of what the game is going to be.

The Empress — Where do your ideas come from? OR Do you seek out or avoid inspiration while working on an idea?

I love nothing more than to dig into an inspiration while I'm working on a project. I like to surround myself with as much aligned stimuli as I can — recently I've been reading Piranesi and Doug Cowan's Cyberhenge and Drawing Down the Moon and listening to a lot of wizard themed hyperpop, for example. You can guess where I might be going with that. Let me drown in the thing I am thinking about, please.

And then credit my inspirations, of course.

The Hierophant — Who is a fellow game designer you’ve learned a lot from? OR What is a piece of popular wisdom about games you think is nonsense?

This is straying a little bit from the prompt, but: I fucking hate it when people try to frame the TTRPG design world as a family / community / whatever. Shut the fuck up. At TTRPGs best they're a scene and at the worst they're an (unregulated and monopolized) industry. I have communities and families within that, but they're not people I'm going to reach with a tag.

The Chariot — What is the next project you’re planning to start OR What is the next project you’re excited to finish?

I mentioned this in another response, but. I've been thinking a lot about wizards lately. Alchemists. Notetaking. Esoterica. A lot of this is: it's summer and I'm not getting my grad school itch scratched, but I've got something new that I just need to polish up a bit... A game I think y'all sickos would enjoy.

Also a Lemony Snicket thing, but that's another story.

The Hanged Man — What other creative pursuits do you have? OR What current trends in game design are you most interested in?

I think we're due for another hackable and misunderstandable system pretty soon, a la PBTA or BITD or NDNM or whatever. Feels like the cutting edge of design has moved on from those things — while still keeping their lessons in mind — and we just need something to blow up in the right way that we end up coining a new term for it. I can feel it coming, I'm just not sure where.

Oh, and One D&D launch is gonna be a mess. The post-CR D&D boom hasn't had to live through an edition change yet. No idea what that's gonna look like, but I can't wait.

The Devil — What motifs or mechanics do you just keep coming back to? OR What is a game you’ve enjoyed playing in the last year?

I played some Wizard's Grimoire (issue 1, but all of them look cool as shit) with a friend recently. Good game for laying on a couch and daydreaming magic boys.

The Tower — Talk about about a game you tried to make that crashed and burned.

When I was maybe a freshman in college — in fact I can remember working on it in 2017 — I wanted to write a PBTA game about paladins of different creeds slamming into each other. It sucked. I didn't know how to write games yet and it came out looking like worse Dungeon World. I'm glad it doesn't exist anywhere.

Don't write worse Dungeon World, folks.

The Star — Talk about a game you’re working on and what excites you about it.

I've been tinkering with some ideas for a multiple-player one-character Disco Elysium-ish game about plurality and inner dialogues. It's fun to roll around in my head! Not sure if I'll ever end up making it, but thinking about ways to mechanize squabbling for authorial control — i.e. to let you play as several people fighting to front — has been a lot of fun.

The Sun — Talk about a game you’ve made that you’re proud of.

Book of 13 Hours. I did some spells with a friend recently and love them. And I talked to the lake I've been stay next to for the last week or so. Good game. Good magic.

while doing research abt kabbalah and such i somehow ran into an article that said blue lotus can heal a bunch of things. so i googled it and other sites said it releases dopamine - which sounds cool and i'd love to see if it works - and is an aphrodisiac which uh . hm. anyway if it wasn't so goddamn expensive i would love to try drinking blue lotus tea ngl

But in hindsight JESUS CHRIST Pisca is a fucked up character and I would be betraying myself to not do something with her story

Eye of the Devil (1966)

Have you seen Sharon Tate as a satanic witch?

🏹Occult conspiracy is rooted in the French countryside. However, the story is about a Parisian woman (Kerr), whose husband (Niven) has to return to the family farm to take care of the vineyard. Despite her husband's opposition, she arrives there with her two young children, and finds threatening village community and strange rituals.

🍇There is a strong folk horror aspect in this movie. Local religion holds that the earth requires periodic sacrifices if it is to remain fertile.

🕊️The housewife ends up losing her identity as wife and mother through the denial of pagan magical beliefs and the rejection of witchcraft. In Eye of the Devil, the well‐intending wife/mother protagonist unwittingly intrudes upon an occult‐based society, in which the landowning family must periodically offer up its members for human sacrifice.

🪦The housewife Catherine and the “witch” Odile (Sharon Tate) each try to navigate the world around them. Catherine is unable to save her husband or her family from the evil forces around them, and she subsequently is changed at the end of the film. The difference between the two can be seen in the rooftop (best) scene, where Odile’s calm and soft voice tries to lure Catherine to her death. 😵‍💫

Kim Novák played originally the Catherines role but she was hurt during the filming in the horse riding scene.

👩‍🌾🧑‍🌾The next‐door neighbors themselves could be and are among the conspirators. Also, the British film comingles two sibling ambassadors (mute? David Hemmings) of the ambivalently ‘beautiful’ or ‘sinister’ postwar generation with the older villagers together as co conspirators.

Funny detail: Alex Sanders was used as a witchcraft expert in this film.

Quote: Did he lie to you? Oh, but you must be used to that by now. Men always lie. Personally, I have no use for them. (Odile)

⭐️⭐️⭐️ Setting, music, stars, plot, Tate

🫤🫤😴 Theatrical acting (especially Kerr), unintended funniness

It’s Friday the 13th which means I’m going to shove extra crystals into my bra. Not because I am afraid of this day but because I am afraid of people who are afraid of this day.
