Small consistencies go a long way. Do not disregard your simple practice for an inefficient one.

New discourse: you're not really a witch if you're not part of a messy polycule with several gods.

“[When asked to draw God]…the children drew, for the most part, faces and figures - many with beards. One child drew a delightful cat, another an intriguing genie popping out of a bottle with two faces (one male, one female). Seven-year-old Daniel handed me the paper blank side up. As I made to turn it over he stopped me and said, “No, that side. It’s air. God is air.” The content of the adult drawings varied massively. As well as a few human figures of mixed gender, many people drew natural landscapes, such as mountains, trees, and the ocean. Some created shapes such as hearts, or spirals, or a dot indicating infinity. One of my favourites was a picture of a dog with the words, “The only thing that could get through to me when I was suffering.”

I love how humans have literally not changed throughout history like the graffiti from Pompeii has people from hundreds of years ago writing stuff like “Marcus is gay” “I fucked a girl here” “Julius your mum wishes she was with me” and leonardo da vinci’s assistants drew dicks in their notebooks just for the banter and mozart created a piece called “kiss my ass” so when people wish for ‘today’s generation’ to be like ‘how people used to’ then we’re already there buddy we’ve always been
