oh, crying to a song, my feelings are returning after four days of enforced numbness. (well, that's overstating things a bit)
I have grown to prefer Blade Runner music for sleep, particularly "Memories of Green"
or maybe it could be construed as a bubble surfacing in liquid? that's a bit witchier.
Hm, I like the new witches.town alert sound, although it's not super witchy, is it? it sounds a bit more like a game sound representing a submarine's sonar
first discovering this thing back in November and meeting people for the first time. when the future held infinite promise
when people got drove off of mastodon.social and there was a huge discourse, eugen totally didn't understand why, and i'm not too convinced we really learned anything from that
cw: trans politics, gatekeeping https://anticapitalist.party/media/mBUmFpRCe2TWUIG9L2M
My advice for trans people recently starting out:
There's a million and a half ways to deliberately expose yourself to the words and views of people who hate you. Don't.
Reading that shit doesn't make you any better informed, just more hurt and bitter.
LB: really I should talk more about #plurality stuff (and tag it, too, I keep forgetting to tag things)
@chalcedony ah, ok! :) my personality division isn't *just* an online thing, but online is where it flourishes. I've had little luck so far in vocalizing it in other ways. In conversations it's just too awkward, and even with just myself I've had strong inhibitions against speaking in alternate voices. I've done it but it's not easy or natural seeming. I suspect that I have some mother-inflicted aversion to speaking when it's not absolutely necessary.

@kara_dreamer ◽ We held an entire ceremony on a MUCK about a month ago, FWIW, but I'm not sure that counts. ◾ What are you counting as “chat”—any realtime text medium, or does it have to be primarily speech-like?
when youre outside and you see a deer and you're like whoah. look at that deer.
that's magical shit right there
tech execs be like
y'know what needs "disrupted"??? headphone jacks! nobody has any problems with them, there's a simple standard that none of *us* control, and the tech just works!
let's break it all and then sell people adapters to give them back what they didn't want us to get rid of!
here's a #witch question for the fediverse...anyone else here ever tried to use chat (IRC, Discorrd, whatever) for specific ritual purpose?
Hey remember when I spent a really fucking long time making this completely random thing and it got literally like 4 likes http://bl1p.tumblr.com/post/165822954771/hey-i-finished-this-drawing-thing-pleas-click
I'm really bad at giving people directions.
Not because I don't know where I'm going, I actually have a fantastic memory of buildings, streets and locations
It's just all visual.
If somone asks me where 'north street' is, I'll have no idea.
However yes, I do know the street with the two collectibles shops, green metal benches, small tree and metamorphic rock yellow and blue paving slabs.
I just know places by appearance, I probably haven't even thought to look to know the streets name
