i dont talk about magic much for.... a variety of reasons, but like. i keep seeing on twitter that Ritual Is The Only Way You Must Do It when that too is just a focusing tool and you can just like, do it

you dont need an hour of free time and 17$ of components

and people not saying there are other ways is probably part of the problem

anyway i'm going back to basically never talking about it, again

but *just doing the thing* is kind of like the least work, ironically, instead of like,

rituals
