Fuck it, here's what the Seeds are gonna buy at my local corner/liquor store:
John: some Blantons or other $100+ bourbon. There's a $1400 bottle of tequila he might grab to impress someone. Also the "honey" packs that are supposed to get you boned up, not that he needs help but because he likes to be on level 120 at all times.
Joseph: he'd get some old glass bottle cream soda or something and leave pamphlets for Eden's Gate in the newspaper stand.
Jacob: He'd gaze longingly at the Lucky Strikes, ultimately reminding himself that addiction to cigarettes is a weakness and he needs healthy lungs to continue culling the herd. He'll walk out with a bottle of water and spend the whole ride back home wishing he'd at least allowed himself to get a juice or a pop for once
Faith: she's going for the Delta 8s, the amanita mushroom gummies, the kratom shots, the clear celluloid rolling papers, the pipe that looks like an elephant, the gas mask bong, and an Arizona Tea

Hi jasper!!
They/them DB again :3
I am back for another reading if that is ok :D
This time i am looking for,, advice? On where to go or maybe where to restart with my craft
Background info: i've been very on and off with all this stuff and kept jumping around without a purpose, so im wondering if there is anything to know before i "lock in" i suppose lol
Im sorry if this doesnt make much sense but i trust u :3
Welcome back to the ask box, DB! For this reading, I have blended the As Above half of the Book of Shadows Tarot by Barbara Moore with the Spirit Allies oracle deck by Jill Pyle and Cidney Bachert! Both of these decks are very Wiccan, but they're also some of the more actually-craft-focused decks I own, so we'll just have to grit our teeth. You have received the 6 of Fire reversed, the 5 of Fire upright, and 31. Kratom for this reading!
Tumblr media
Oh this is a delightful spread, sliding down from 6 to 5. And if you do the thing that tarot recommends and add the individual numbers of 31 (3 and 1) together, you get 4, continuing the slow slide. Quite nice.
So here's what's going on with the As Above deck. The suits are all renamed to their elements and assigned a category. In this case, Fire is planets and salamanders. Broadly speaking, this suit emphasizes things like candle magic - up to anointing, carving, and everything to do with that. The 5 and 6 of Fire, then, are Jupiter and Saturn respectively. Instead of reversals, this deck technically has shadow sides, which is what Saturn is portraying.
With me so far?
The reversed Saturn indicates the building of walls and retreat. The fear of failure overwhelms the desire to succeed. This may be a case where you're scared of things not working in your practice. As annoying as it is for things to not work when you put time into them, it's very important to understand that failure is not total. In the wise words of Miss Frizzle, "If at first you don't succeed, find out why."
Tumblr media Tumblr media
So, I've been getting into planetary magic recently. Been dipping my toe in and making a document of keywords and correspondences and whatnot. Somewhere among all of that research, I came across the idea that Jupiter opposes Saturn. Jupiter is benefic and auspicious, while Saturn is harsh and malefic. Saturn is when you want to bind and punish, while Jupiter is when you want to grow and gain.
Jupiter, the Great Benefactor, is "like everyone's favorite uncle - generous, fun and charming", according to Barbara Moore. And I would agree. Jupiter is associated with things like prosperity, expansion, and religion/spirituality. This could mean that getting back into the actual spiritual part of your practice, if such a thing existed previously, could help. Otherwise, magic to help you and the folks around you is also a potential point to consider as you get back into your practice or rework it.
And now, for something completely different. Mitragyna Speciosa is a tropical evergreen from southeast Asia. Its leaves, the Kratom part, has been used in herbal medicine for chronic pain, opioid withdrawal symptoms, recreational purposes, and more...although the United States Food and Drug Administration disagrees.
As a card, however, Kratom asks you this: What are you trying to avoid or ignore that you know is a problem? What are you holding onto that's just holding you back? As you handle problems, you'll generally feel better, even if the solution may sting a bit. It's gonna be uncomfortable, but discomfort is a necessary part of life, even though we all hate it. This card actually ties back in with the 6 of Fire/Saturn card, in a way.
Whew! I see why @khajiit-reads pulls multiple cards for questions, I love the amount of detail I can put into this reading, even though it takes a bit longer. It's very nice to see how all the cards interact.
Anyhow, I hope this reading has been helpful! If you feel so inclined, please feel free to send feedback in my ask box, leave feedback in a reblog of this reading, and/or reblog my reading guidelines!

Going through so much right now. Barely have the capacity to do much of anything aside from work and take care of myself and my spouse.
Autistic burnout is truly a cruel mistress. As is having undiagnosed ADHD, knowing what your unmet needs are, and not having the means to access the support you require.
Big vent below. Workplace ableism. ADHD/AuDHD vent.
My spouse is quitting his job again. It happens every year. We've only just now realised "oh my god, it's the autism. It was always the autism" for why he keeps hopping.
He's leaving the current job because they're failing to give him what seems like the most basic accommodations (written instructions, scheduled meetings/literally any notice instead of impromptu "informal chats" in hallways with no record, basic empathy).
He's being told off for "speaking too loudly" and "speaking too enthusiastically" even though all he's talking about with his colleagues is work. They took away his office to turn it into a meeting room, forced him into the communal office space, and have now told him to stop talking to himself or his colleagues.
It's heartbreaking. It's been slowly creeping in for months and it's taken too long for us to realise "oh my god, you need a diagnosis, this is just fucking discrimination, you need formal accommodations and support".
So he's off on the sick now because his stress has become so severe that he just can't function. Before he got the sick note he'd come home and crash every day, and dreaded going to work. He role-played being a warhammer 40k servitor (lobotomised and obedient worker drone, basically) to help him get through the day of staying quiet and doing nothing but work. He'd come home and need so much sensory input and support. And he slept so much, and so poorly. He started to "fail the speech checks" (massively miss social cues and say the wrong thing) with colleagues at work, and came home embarrassed in ways he never was before. He's a very very social animal, and didn't think he had social difficulties, but now he's so worn down that he's realised he does.
He can't mask anymore. He's so tired.
And now that he got that sick note, and plans to leave, he's not dreading waking up each day nearly as much. He's still in the sensory sock every day, and he's still sad and overwhelmed, but he's feeling better.
We've started the process of getting him a diagnosis, but it's going to take months and months and months. We don't really have months. We're going to start applying for new jobs for him, and hopefully get him out of labs. You'd think a chemical laboratory would be the perfect place for an autistic man who loves STEM, but management has always made it unworkable for him. He's always slowly forced out.
And I can barely take care of him, between working full time and having EDS. And I've finally realised I desperately need that ADHD diagnosis, and I need meds. I haven't felt like a person in so long. I haven't felt like myself in years. I feel like this abstract creature inside this horrible prison, and the controls don't work anymore.
Every mental health professional I've seen has asked me, "Have you ever been assessed for ADHD? You've already adopted all the coping mechanisms and lifestyle changes I could recommend. I can't diagnose you, but yknow, think about it."
I've always suspected it. I know I'm autistic. All signs point to ADHD too.
I looked back on every stimulant I've put in my body, and realised that all of them made my brain emptier. They all gave me more control. I was always more able to make choices and act upon them. But I used to associate that with the pain relief (think kratom, nefopam, etc) not the stimulant.
So when I got my pain mostly under control, and I manage it now, I couldn't figure out why I still had so little control over myself.
It's the fucking ADHD.
How much time have I lost to being undiagnosed and unmedicated? How much of my life has slipped down the drain while I paced back and forth, or laid in place "stuck", or ping ponged from incomplete task to incomplete task until I crashed? How much more pleasure could I have experienced if my brain wasn't full of constant noise and thirty different versions of the same thought?
How much have I hurt myself by going "you're fine, you don't need meds" for so many years?
I don't know how long it's going to take to get diagnosed. I've started the process and now we just...wait. But all the evidence points to "yes", and that "meds will probably work and make a massive difference for your quality of life". I might get to be a person someday, or at least a more fulfilled creature.

The Longhouse Garden of Sacred Medicines
Long ago, when the world was young, the Longhouse People lived in harmony with the earth, the stars, and the spirits of the forest. They believed that every plant, animal, and stone held a spirit, and among all living things, there were certain sacred medicines gifted by the Creator to guide humanity toward healing, wisdom, and balance.
In the heart of the Longhouse village stood a sacred garden, a living tapestry of ancient heirloom plants. It was a place of reverence, where elders shared stories, healers prepared medicines, and the people gathered to commune with the spirits. Among the plants that thrived there were Iboga, Erythroxylon coca, Peyote, San Pedro, Kratom, Ayahuasca vines, cannabis, hemp, and magic mushrooms. Each plant carried its own unique spirit and sacred purpose, woven together into a symphony of healing and enlightenment.
The Story of Iboga and Erythroxylon Coca
Iboga, with its gnarled roots, was known as the “Gatekeeper of Dreams.” It guided the Longhouse People in their darkest hours, showing them the truth within their souls. It was said that Iboga could reveal the paths of past lives and the wisdom of ancestors, offering clarity and purpose to those in turmoil.
Erythroxylon coca, the “Leaf of Vitality,” was cherished for its life-giving energy. The Longhouse elders used its leaves to ease hunger, heal the sick, and connect with the mountain spirits. When chewed with reverence, it became a bridge to the divine, awakening the strength and resilience of the human spirit.
Peyote and San Pedro: The Cacti of Vision
In the arid lands, Peyote and San Pedro thrived as pillars of endurance and spiritual guidance. Peyote, the "Sacred Heart," carried the spirit of the deer and brought visions of harmony and unity. It was used in ceremonies to heal divisions within the tribe and to connect with the celestial guardians.
San Pedro, the "Staff of the Healer," grew tall and strong in the sacred garden. Its spirit was a gentle yet powerful guide, revealing truths about the cosmos and the interconnectedness of all life. Together, these cacti balanced the Longhouse People’s spiritual journey, grounding them in the earth while lifting their spirits to the heavens.
Kratom and Ayahuasca: The Trees of Strength and Wisdom
Kratom, the "Tree of Endurance," was a symbol of vitality. Its leaves were used by the Longhouse healers to alleviate pain and restore energy to those who toiled for the community. It embodied the strength of the forest and the resilience of the people.
The Ayahuasca vines, known as the “Mother Spirit,” were revered as the ultimate teacher. The Longhouse shamans prepared a sacred brew from the vines, which opened the door to the spirit world. Through Ayahuasca, the people received visions of healing, guidance, and unity with the natural world.
Cannabis, Hemp, and Magic Mushrooms: The Universal Medicines
Cannabis and hemp were the twin spirits of healing and sustenance. The resinous flowers of cannabis were used as a sacred incense to invoke peace, relieve pain, and inspire creativity. Hemp’s strong fibers wove the fabric of daily life, from clothing to tools, binding the community in strength and utility.
Magic mushrooms, the "Children of the Forest," grew humbly among the damp earth. Their vibrant caps held the spirit of transformation, revealing hidden truths and bringing joy to the hearts of the Longhouse People. They were eaten in ceremonies to honor the cycles of life, death, and rebirth.
A Garden of Balance
The sacred garden of the Longhouse People was not merely a collection of plants—it was a living representation of their values and beliefs. The medicines thrived together in a polyculture, their roots entwined, sharing nutrients and wisdom. Clovers and lentils enriched the soil, while tall trees provided shade and sanctuary for the spirits.
The Longhouse People tended the garden with humility and gratitude, offering prayers and organic materials to nourish the sacred plants. They believed that the potency of each plant's medicine was a reflection of the love and care they received. The garden became a sanctuary where the physical, spiritual, and emotional needs of the community were met.
The Legacy of the Longhouse People
Generations later, the teachings of the Longhouse People continue to echo through time. Their reverence for the sacred plants reminds us that the earth offers all we need to heal and grow. Iboga, coca, Peyote, San Pedro, Kratom, Ayahuasca, cannabis, hemp, and magic mushrooms remain as powerful allies for those who seek balance, wisdom, and connection with the world around them.
The garden lives on in the hearts of those who honor the ancient ways, a reminder that healing comes not only from the plants themselves but from the sacred relationship between humanity and the natural world.

What is Home Depot, if not a capitalist mausoleum? A warehouse of broken dreams, where the petty bourgeois hoard materials for their doomed property investments, built from the sweat of overworked, underpaid laborers across the globe. Every aisle reeks of alienation, every pallet of drywall whispers the slow death of the proletariat.
And yet, it is here—amidst the sawdust, despair, and discounted PVC piping—that class consciousness is born. When my body collapses onto the cold, unfeeling concrete floor, it is not exhaustion. It is revolt. When my eyes roll back, pupils like twin black holes, I am not merely intoxicated—I am refusing capitalist productivity itself. As the Home Depot dads and DIY landlords scuttle past with their carts of bourgeois ambition, they are forced to confront a nightmare: the immovable mass of the working class, 20 grams of kratom deep, sprawled out in the lumber section, rejecting labor, rejecting motion, rejecting the very system that props them up.
And so, like clockwork, the hounds of capital arrive. The police—sweaty, confused, trembling at the sheer power of my non-compliance. “Sir, you need to leave,” they stammer, but what they truly mean is “Sir, your presence alone has shattered the illusion of order.” Their hands twitch near their tasers, their boots scuff against linoleum, their radios crackle with bureaucratic dread. I am the specter of collapse, and they fear me.
Dragged out beneath the harsh, flickering fluorescence, a crushed bag of 99-cent loose screws still clutched in my hands, I remember Mao’s words: “A revolution is not a dinner party.” No, comrades. It is a nod-out in Aisle 17. It is the refusal of the body to serve capital. It is praxis. It is destiny.
I hope this means I’m being gangstalked.

When I drink my kratom up, there will sometimes be a bit of sludge left at the bottom and my daughter likes to take the spoon and "paint" the kratom all over the window (I sit by the window and leave my cup on the windowsill) then just wipe off with a wet towel later. Great zero-waste activities for tots follow and subscribe for more!

Some
Sometimes I'm afraid if I don't set alarms I'll die in my sleep Because the particular brand of anxiety that comes for me, mimics the symptoms of heart attacks
Some nights I take a bit more kratom than I need and then take some more to go back to sleep if I happen to see the time before I see the sun It scares me after the fact because how could I sleep when I potentially just hurt my only One?
I know I okay but I never seem to get a break from convincing my brain of what my soul already knows There's no ebbs it just flows and I hesitate to say that I hate being alert to being afraid because at the end of the day it's my brain's special way Of taking care of me It feels like eviction My brain just won't listen It's going too fast How is it so scary to know what to expect My body stays on the second to last number in countdown to auto-eject But I never quite make it off the ship And the crash nor destruction isn't even a blip On the radar
Who's radar?
Why do my neural pathways just defy the roadblocks and detours I set for them? Do they not understand how expensive the ketamine therapy is? I don't understand How even some flowers can thrive in the sand But I cannot take my next turn with this winning hand It's like the next hand couldn't possibly be As good. And so I'm stuck in the loop of convincing myself this one's shitty.
But all alarms blare because my soul knows the truth and the hand's not the problem the problem is me and it won't cost me you. No matter how many times I leave you behind Walk right off your shelf While looking for myself You always stay I wish I could say I don't take you for granted But every doomsday I reach for your hand and it it's... free. It costs me nothing to have you all about me You've been there all along Like that one part of the song That never hurt until that one time that it does Then it sticks in your head Replaying on dead Batteries As I'm battling me The part that always swears I'll put you first From now on But you tell me don't worry and we change the song Back to me And I'm back just as sorry as I'll ever be
MAYDAY! MAYDAY! SOS! The relentless panic beats in my chest From the inside out The monsters all shout What suffering such a piece of shit Will endure filled with shame Suffocating in blame Choking on my own name I can breathe from my mouth it's my brain That's where the stain is. And if I come up for air I'll scream this isn't fair As I sob putting on My prescription life jacket You'll once more pause the song And say I know baby but it's All going to be okay "I promise." The code override to believe you is missing a line Or a page because now I've calmed down I realize That I'm so afraid Of how easy it was for you to shut them down The chaos the monsters the bullies inbound Placidity can never last And from your cocoon of sensation deprivation I find myself pulled to the past The only way out is through But I'd rather stay here in this part of you On pause in the sunshine Basking in peace of mind That your soul is louder than my brain And no matter how ever scary my day I'll scare myself back to this place

Improve your personal hygiene with kratom tea leaves and herbal supplements 
Tumblr media
Uncompensated, non-incentivized, and unedited user reviews prove that the products whose health potential matches that of the aromatic and flavored kratom tea leaves respond quicker offering the highest level of care to the human body. Sooner or later, the desire to taste the herbal ingredients grows stronger and flourishes over time. Are your close relatives living near a riverside blend to free shipping on all orders but not whole-heartedly try supporting them?

You know how crows give you gifts if you befriend them? I’ve been feeding crows and leaving them nice things and as a thank you they brought me a half empty container of kratom
