Collectable woodblock prints commemorating individual conquests were commonplace in the theocracy, distributed by the church as a way to announce its victories.

Would also be really annoying if they wore heat resistant gloves to throw back the hot tear gas canisters and if this got shared to all those protesting…

I like when people say things like “respect blue collar workers!” and then the same people turn around and completely dismiss the years of training it takes to be able to do that type of work safely and effectively.

“Telling people not to do their own electrical work because it’s dangerous is classist bc not everyone can afford an electrician” “I can’t believe that plumber charged me so much money for less than an hour of work, what a scam!” “In the post-capitalist utopia everyone will just take turns doing all types of blue-collar work, instead of years-long apprenticeships we’ll just give them a course in high school or something” “Building and safety codes are just pointless bureaucracy meant to stop the average citizen from being able to build their own structures” “I would love to be a farmer and just hang out tending to plants all day”

These are all things I have seen on this website by self-proclaimed worker’s rights advocates and I hope I don’t have to explain how incredibly insulting and dismissive it is when it’s not outright dangerous. There’s a LOT that needs to be fixed about our current labor system but “pretending like training and safety protocols aren’t important” and “pretending that those jobs are actually really easy and any layperson can do them” are uh. Not good solutions.

Do you have any ideas for blessing jewelry? I’m fairly new to all of this.

For witchcraft you mean? And don’t worry about being new, we all have to start somewhere!

Generally I bless jewellery for protection (but of course, you can charge them for anything you want) by first cleansing them in salt for a night (check the materials of the item first to ensure it’s safe) then holding it in my hand and visualising a light entering the object. I focus very strongly on my intent and can use this to colour the light. For example, I like to imagine brown energy/light flowing through my arms from my core into the object and I repeat affirmations (ex: this ring will keep me safe from emotional harm) until I feel that it is full with the intent and energy.

I hope this has helped! I tried to explain it really quickly, so if you would like to go into more depth I recommend this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KqEwsl9sDqI by The Witch of Wonderlust

Icarus

Icarus flew before he fell

before his burnt skin was swallowed up by the oceans swell

The Fates cut his string, his death was due

But before all that, Icarus flew

This world is just a small place, just a reddening sky before the sun rises, so let's hold hands tight so that when the birds sing, none of us will be lost.
