The witch's calendar of harvest refuses ink-marked dates. She knows the turn year by berry swell, by movements through colour towards ripeness. She waits on the mistletoe drupe, not in hope of Christmas kisses, but future cures. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

The witch knows the turn of year through the sweet tang of apple rot carpet. She knows it in the slow striptease of hawthorn, knows it the wrinkling skin of berries. She requires no calendar but nature. Each season is sacred. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

I’ve had boneset show up in pots in my balcony the past couple of years

Fair

Gasp! Donnie Darko was an alright movie. “Cellar Door”

For the witch's listening to the land isn't always a pleasantness. Spots that to others are picturesque may scream their sorrows to her. The loss felt by trees of a felled neighbour. The nitrate smothering of river. The are wounded places that will scratch her soul. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

Lemme know if you need me to give the ghosties an eviction

I hope some day you collect these all into a book

The witch's walk is always a crossing of thresholds. The witch's way through the world always a dance with shadows. There is mud on her boots and a hundred omenic languages in her mouth. She has no time for your hierarchical bullshit. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

John Waters standing beside a wall with a sign that says: The John Waters Restrooms. All Gender. Not my photo.

In 2000, John Waters donated 372 pieces of his art collection to the Baltimore Museum of Art. They named a rotunda after him in their gallery. He requested an all-gender restroom be named for him instead. #BOTD

The Holocaust Story I Said I Wouldn’t Write (Gift Article) For years, my friend’s father asked me to recount his childhood escape from the Nazis. Why did it take me this long?

Exquisite. Thank you @taffyakner.bsky.social.

The tongue of the witch has words taught by trees, secret phrases loaned to her by the wind. Her accent is shaped by the paths she walks, the hedges that take their tithe of scratches. It is a thousand keys to unlock or bind. A thousand names to bless or curse. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky

Most of the academic books I discovered was through author podcast interviews; other times, it has been through Bluesky, posts or browsing various bookshelf subreddits

I echo your comments. The high cost of academic books usually stops me from purchasing. (Sometimes I luck out on the used market or if there is a sale or coupon code. Usually, those I am interested in languish in bookmarks and wishlists.)

Long before the trees have taken to wearing green again, woodpeckers drum their territory. The sleeping spirits of the wood try to ignore this alarm, but their winter rest is broken. You feel their waking across your psychic skin. Hundreds of eyes opening to watch you as you walk. - #EmilyCBanting

Congratulations!

For the salt hag's shore is full of flotsam omens, tidal thresholds. It is crowded with wind-blown lessons teaching while not every ever storm can be turned, all storms can be faced. In each moment, transformation. In each moment, magic. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

Every salt hag has her place of standing. Wave-washed rocks as threshold, as turning point, as site of summoning. For as much as we are witches of the tides and their teeth, we are also of the omen shore. We know how to plant our feet and face the storm. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981 #WitchSky

A pride flag with every color band represented by a NASA image. White is Earth clouds, pink is aurora, blue is the Sun in a specific wavelength, brown is Jupiter clouds, black is the Hubble deep field, red is the top of sprites, orange is a Mars crater, yellow is the surface of Io, green is a lake with algae, blue is Neptune, and purple is the Crab Nebula in a specific wavelength.

I made this Pride flag using only NASA images and our team thought it would be cool to share on social (I work on the NASA heliophysics communications team), but it's getting all sorts of hate on the bird app and Fbook. Thought y'all might be more appreciative of it here. ☺️🏳️‍🌈💖

If you’re a federal employee, you should know this is a lie. Congress hasn’t appropriated these monies and so it’s literally not there to be spent. Also, federal agencies are limited by law to a max $25K payout in the case of restructuring.

Dark Horse takes seriously the allegations against Neil Gaiman and we are no longer publishing his works.

Confirming that the Anansi Boys comic series and collected volume have been cancelled.

Ordered some yesterday, along with valentines cards my friends are going to love!

How Neil Gaiman’s Publishers Have Responded to the Sexual Misconduct Allegations Following the publication, in ‘New York’ magazine, of a piece detailing accusations of sexual assault and misconduct made against Gaiman by nine women, HarperCollins, Marvel, and Norton said they have...

Shoutout to publisher WW Norton, who has said they will not publish Neil Gaiman again. Thanks for stepping up. That's one decent answer from publishing.

I was thinking about this book yesterday and how he perfectly fits the profile of the feminist-facade abuser

Can’t wait!
