Sitting in the shade of the nice weather and thinking about an #iChing reading I got yesterday; mountain over water changing to tree/wind on a mountain. The first hexagram is about all teachers having been pupils somewhere along the line, and about the nature of teaching. The changing lines cover much, but convert to a hexagram about gradual progress.
I had asked it about my writing, and my progress in life in general, and the changing line I was told as dominant, talks about idolatry.
I just looked up the etymology, but it didn't reveal more than what I realized today. I've been idolizing all sorts of my fears, as if they might consume me.

just started this excellent book about systems thinking by Donella H Meadows. It is highly legible and has lots of illustrations of the concepts.
already dropping knowledge about in flows, out flows, and stocks on my unsuspecting dinner pal.
my goal is to inform my magical practice with systems-oriented ritual, sigils, and egregores.
a reminder that free lunches actually existed from before the civil war into the 20th century, and were the single most effective method of alleviating poverty in american cities. while privatecharities and government programs failed, saloons distributed massive amounts of food for little or no charge.
#Germany/#Berlin folx, a Question:
I'm thinking of staying at Jugendgaestehaus Hauptbahnhof, but it's run by the church. They're house rules forbids sexuality based discrimination.
Yet I am cautious. Is there any record/history of this hostel turning away same sex couples? Or not giving them a double bed/etc?
pls boost

Hey, you. Sitting over there, reading the news about Republicans in the U.S. Senate gearing up to gut health care, even as they don't know exactly what they're voting on:
It's ok to be angry, and to act on being angry. (Do stay as safe as you can, though.) Don't let anybody tell you otherwise.
You're not alone.

psst
hey
that idea for a thing you'd like to write?
write a short, non-binding, no fucks given, just keep going version of it
then toss it away, but keep what you've learnt from the experience
or keep it, if it turns out to be good
win-win this bugger
I would write more if I realized, more and more, that the idea that you can recreate yourself entirely through identity is actually not as understood as it could be.

"It is precisely because of anti-Semitism that public debate and legal recourse are toothless against fascism, which takes any defeat as further justification of its own programme.
Racism and anti-Semitism are not weapons deployed by fascism, of a comparable order to propaganda or oration: they are its very substance."

ever see the 1995 movie Strange Days? it's pretty good btw.
do you remember a POV VR scene where a man experiences taking a shower as an 18 y.o. girl?
i sure do. and a few comments on the internet. but it seems to be wiped from memory (appropriate!)
if you get a copy now you'll only see that scene from an outside perspective, the man standing there reacting. no POV:

1 or 2 sources say it was in earlier theatrical/LD/DVD versions... maybe? it's not in any deleted scenes list, though
this is making me feel a little crazy
perhaps it's a mistaken memory, but at least a few others have it too...
@kara_dreamer I fell asleep, I'm not sure for how long, but I felt awake for a lot of it and just listened to my heart beat.

I got to meditate for a bit today. Otherwise, I was busy almost the rest of it. It's almost like there's little space and time for me to get ahead, and it's depressing. These small moments of self care mean a lot.
I don't feel up to doing the last cataloging of my belongings, but I think I gotta. Bleh.

I'm finally back on witches.town after being away since my selfie earlier. :3. I'm hungry and beat, awaiting my wusband to get home.. I still feel like I gotta do a few things before she does, and it's hard when I feel like sleeping... 😴
