Life is a skillset. In order to grow and maintain any skillset, we must practice. The modern technology landscape is antithetic to mastery. Everyone lulled to sleep by a piece of metal and glass in their hand. And believe me, they want you docile and compliant. Apathy is the enemy of progress.

Witchcraft is not consolatory hokum. It doesn't offer tepid answers to hard questions and even harsher circumstances. It offers us relationships with the land, its spirits and ourselves. Relationships may be rough and require work, but they get us through. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky

It's incredibly refreshing to see this sort of support. Gents, take some time to actively listen to the women in your life. Trust me, they all have stories. It's on us to stomp out this sort of behavior. "If we wept for every woman who suffered, we'd never stop weeping, would we?" -Ross Montgomery

We must all continually work on being comfortable in the uncomfortable. And that means exposing ourselves to experiences and cultures that are antithetic to our own.

Autumnal rays turned your eyes to stone 🫴🏼
A soft focus country scene. A large tree to the left of the shot hangs over a field surrounded by hedgerow, which meet in the foreground. Toward the horizon, hilly tree tops can be seen. The cloud cover is heavy in shades of white and grey with sunlight drifting through in some places.

when "violence is never the answer," it really only applies to anyone who isn't a white cis male. "violence is never the answer" promises violent punishment for anyone who doesn't acquiesce. they understand when and where violence is the only answer, and they're terrified. they should be.

Remember that episode of Buffy the Vampire Slayer that aired in 1997 where Buffy and Cordelia are invited to a frat party only it turns out that the frat boys worship a penis-shaped demon and offer it a sacrifice of girls to rape every year so that the penis demon blesses them with money and power?
Anyway, that episode came out almost 30 years ago.

From the introduction to the Hookland Tourist Board I=SEE STRANGE HOOKLAND book:
REMEMBER:

Don’t go out by yourself at night. Many things in this book are thought to be imaginary, but being out by yourself in the dark can still be dangerous – even if you don’t encounter the Danebury Grim. 

If you see something that scares you, tell a parent or a trusted adult such as a teacher. In extreme cases where you can’t find an adult you can trust, you could even tell a police officer.

Don’t provoke Faeries of any type. You would not like people shouting your name, poking you in your bed with a stick or throwing stones in your bath, so don’t do it to Faeries. No-one likes ill-behaved children, least of all the Elves of Hookland.

Don’t signal for UFOs with torches. It is not only a waste of batteries, it can be misinterpreted by the emergency services. Besides, we can’t promise that all UFOs are friendly or interpret your signal as a positive message.

Show some respect for the graves of the dead. If you were buried in the ground you wouldn’t appreciate another child dancing on your grave or trying to dig it up would you?

Remember to take extra care when looking for things around water – both by the sea and along rivers and pools. Even if he is imaginary, the King-Under-the-Sea should be shown some deference and Stay Belows not encouraged to grab at you when dangling your legs or trailing your hands in cool, apparently calm water.

Imaginary things can’t hurt you unless you believe in them with all your heart and then they are really quite dangerous.
