Y’all IK we won the senate and it’s definitely important to celebrate, but if you’re in Georgia please, please, please vote in the runoff on December 6.

If we can get 51 instead of an exact tie it will give us a little wiggle room. For the past two years, a lot of the improvements Biden has attempted to make haven’t made it passed the Senate because one or two Democrats voted no and that was all it took; if we can get Georgia too, one Democrat can vote no and the legislation will still pass. The more seats we have the better chance we have for serious, meaningful change.

Please vote December 6th.

From the article:

António Guterres told world leaders at the opening of the Cop27 UN climate summit in Egypt on Monday: “We are in the fight of our lives and we are losing … And our planet is fast approaching tipping points that will make climate chaos irreversible.

“We are on a highway to climate hell with our foot on the accelerator.”

The system is rigged. The advantages for the wealthy are immediate and endless.

I don’t know, I still think that everyone involved in suppressing climate research at Exxon and the like should be mercilessly butchered by an angry mob.

Like I don’t know; I can’t help but think that the fact that they may have doomed entire ecosystems and billions of people to unimaginable suffering for their own insatiable greed and their heads *aren’t* stuck on pikes for ravens to feast upon is reflective of a fundamental lack of justice in the universe.

#like  retributive justice is rarely productive but on the other hand Gods  would it be satisfying for them to face consequences for once

This. Exactly this.

  Maybe you’re young, and you think this doesn’t affect you. But, it will affect your parents, or your grandparents.   And, remember, if Republicans kill these programs, the dollars you pay in – that are/have been withheld from your paycheck – you will never get back.

yikes!

"This problem is not limited to fashion. As creative industries become more consolidated and more beholden to producing ever-expanding profits for their shareholders, companies stop taking even calculated risks. You get theaters full of comic-book adaptations and remakes of past hits instead of movies about adults, for adults. Streaming services fill their libraries with shows meant to play in the background while you scroll your phone. Stores stock up on stuff you might not love, but which the data predict you won’t absolutely hate. “You have too many fashion companies, both on the retail side and the manufacturing side, being driven by empty suits,” Grain Carter said. Consumable products are everywhere, and maybe the most we can hope for is that their persistent joylessness will eventually doom the corporations that foist them upon us."

Yep.

“And then I remember Edge picking the guitar, sitting down in a corridor, once. He was playing Neil Young’s ‘The Needle and the Damage Done.’ I was trying to play it as well. I was envious because I could tell that he could play a little better than I could. What I didn’t realize at that time is that he could play a lot better than I could. He always had that thing about him, that he wouldn’t nominate himself to run in the race. But if he was put in the race, he would want to win it. It’s a strange thing, and I don’t know where it comes from. He has a healthy disrespect - and respect - for his own ego… He knows that he’s capable of, and he would not push himself forward. He would rather hang back in the shadows and be discovered.” - Bono on The Edge

He wouldn't nominate himself to run in the race, but if he was put in the race, he would want to win it.

“Oh, go on, Captain, you finish it”.

I try to come at occult with the most scholarly and anti-woo attitude possible but advertisements might as well be curses

Anthropologically speaking, magic is like religion and science; it's a way of interfacing with and understanding the world.

It can have metaphysical functions, like offering some corn to the storm god so the storm god doesn't fuck over your crop harvest.

But magic sticks around because it also serves social functions: it makes people happy to have a corn festival for the storm god. Festivals are fun, it builds community.

One of the most important forms of magic is called "transactional" magic; forming relationships and communicating with entities that are personified elements of human life. The Greek god Ares is a personification of war, by pouring out some wine for him in the hopes that you'll survive a war, you are performing an act of transactional magic.

The advertising concept of Branding often seeks to personify a corporate entity whose only goal is to sell you things. Coke isn't just coke, it's hip, it's young, it's fashionable, and by purchasing Coke, the corporation will impart those qualities upon the customer. Which is by definition an act of transactional magic.

The fundamental structure of a transactional spell is "Perform rite X, receive boon Y" so yeah! I don't like these fucking advertising wizards putting their stupid glyphs everywhere!
