Painting depicting a Witch with a black hat and red cloak carrying a lantern, walking away from us into the woods. There is snow on the ground, but a few snowdrop flowers are blooming. The caption reads: Welcome to The Season of the Witch.

Another quick apology to the world on behalf of actual Americans who aren't part of this conspiracy to pretend Trump isn't a psychopath lost in his own delusions and self-glorification He should be in a rubber room, not insulting you (and reality). We're working on the problem

My husband had to take his mother to church and was forced to sit through it. He drank the koolaid as a child. I’m now observing him for signs that the previous brainwashing, which he successfully broke, is reactivating like a sleeper agent. He’s been thoroughly saged.

Of course they have to insist that their god is male. How else would they be able to convince their followers that anyone who doesn’t fit their definition of male is inferior? It’s an important part of their narrative. But, it all seems like something from Idiocracy.

Picture of Tim Curry. Text reads: If Dolly was one of Gen X's moms, Tim Curry was the uncle we saw once a year who slipped us a twenty when our parents weren't looking and pretended like he didn't see us stealing cigarettes from his jacket pocket in the closet. Son of a bitch. This week can go to hell.

At some point our sane representatives have to realize that he’s very likely doing this all on purpose. All this destruction, alienating our allies, siding with dictators and lunatics…I do also believe he’s insane, but two things can be true at the same time.

ICE has STOLEN an Indigenous Tribal ELDER from NM, who was on her way to CHEMO. She stopped for gas, ICE then approached her, she showed all of her proper, legal documentation. They still stole her away. They're denying her of life saving CHEMO. When will it be enough. #ShedShed #ViVaHerAlliance

A quick image search gives this result
Mitch McConnell and his wife Elaine ChaoGoogle search results: This photo was taken in April 2023.
The image features then-Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell and his wife, Elaine Chao, while he was recovering at a rehabilitation facility following a fall. It was released on April 10, 2023, via McConnell's official social media account to update the public on his health progress and discharge.
Would you like to know more about the health updates released during this period?

Mitch McConnell hasn’t been seen or heard from in 25 days in the hospital. Yet he still has a job, still getting paid, and getting unlimited world class healthcare. The man who voted against a living wage, against universal healthcare, and against guaranteed paid leave, is now getting all three.

THIS! This is what Pagans experience every day in comments, even on things that don’t concern the person commenting. Unsolicited, unwanted, condescending. The person feels they know better what is best for a (unusually) total stranger. Ugh! #WitchSky #PaganSky #DruidSky
Sharon O'Brien Christian here, but with some understanding of Pagan Witchcraft. I also love his books. I find them hilarious and insightful and wise. They are a brilliant commentary on society and human nature. To that extent only, I think they give good insight into faith and religion - Christianity included.
Now, please don't take this personally, it's not meant as criticism to your beliefs - switching into a Christian point of view here.
According to Christianity, the only good power is God's power. Authority and insight into the spiritual world should come directly from God for every Christian. Witchcraft, in this paradigm, is the mimicry of God's power and as such flawed. It's used for other than God's purposes (as he's not the one giving it) and is as such perverted, meaning used for a flawedIs Goa s power. Autority ana insignt into ine spiritual world should come directly from God for every Christian. Witchcraft, in this paradigm, is the mimicry of God's power and as such flawed. It's used for other than God's purposes (as he's not the one giving it) and is as such perverted, meaning used for a flawed purpose.
Does Witchcraft work? Of course it does to some extent. But as a Christian, I would be very careful about using methods and wisdom derived from it, exactly because it works without God's direct involvement.
That being said, I do believe God meets us where we are at and he is perfectly capable of speaking to people and teaching them with the materials at hand. Discworld novels included.Thank you, I'm good. I don't need advice or direction on my spirituality. I wish you well, but unsolicited advice returned - please don't lecture anyone on their path. It's really not wanted and is condescending.

“I wish people cared about (fill-in-blank) as much as a dog.” Okay, sociopaths, just because YOU are incapable of caring about people and animals at the same time, with the same intensity, doesn’t mean the rest of us are incapable. You are showing us who you are. This is why I usually prefer animals

I need to speak up about a tired trope. Please stop referring to women who you don’t like as “Witch”. When used in a derogatory manner it’s considered a slur by most Pagans and Witches. It’s hurtful. Now that you know, what you do hereafter is a choice. (When we know better we do better - M Angelou)
