White Rose Witching

New Moon Ritual: February 2026 — White Rose Witching I’ve never woken up with my feet actually sore and aching following a dream about hiking. So, that was new. I’m not going to analyze this particular dream for y’all. Instead, I am just going to lay ...

The write-up from the February 2026 New Moon Dream Divination ritual is up on the blog! Check it out.

The New Guard of Grievance: Inside the Toxic Culture of MAGA Influencers How Kick streamers and "Looksmaxxers" are shaping the next generation on the right.

"None of these figures build anything. They tear things down. They don’t persuade, they inflame tensions. Their platforms are not forums for debate as much as arenas for spectacle where the goal isn’t understanding, but domination."

"We are responsible for liberalism’s image, but we are not given its loudest megaphones. And now, even talking about us seems to send them spiraling into unprocessed feelings of masculine inadequacy."

"Centrist columnists want the power of leading the coalition without any responsibility. They assign to liberals and the left responsibility without power. We are blamed for election losses, but we may not set election strategy."

"I think we should welcome anyone’s support; I’d never throw a vote back. The question I’m asking is, are these people best placed to lead? To be the most significant voices and define the strategy for the anti-Trump coalition?"

What’s Behind the Centrists’ Resistance to the “Resistance Liberals”? They’re acknowledging now that the people who called Trump a “fascist” were right. But somehow we’re still not to be trusted.

"Am I, perhaps, being too harsh? I am, after all, talking about people who are coming round to my view somewhat. Should I not welcome them into the movement?

[...]

I think this sort of argument can conflate two things: welcoming their support and welcoming their leadership."

February 17, 2026 Trump’s White House website welcomes visitors with a pop-up that reads: “WELCOME TO THE GOLDEN AGE!” But on this heavy news day a year into Trump’s second term, it is increasingly clear that as his re...

"The Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (BCA), a statewide program that specializes in police shootings, said yesterday that [..] the [FBI] will not allow it any “access to information or evidence that it has collected” related to the shooting death of [...] Alex Pretti."

Major corporations bankroll political ad featuring white supremacist slogan Congressman Andy Barr (R-KY), who is running to replace Mitch McConnell in the United States Senate, released his first television ad earlier this month.

"In the ad, Barr speaks directly to the camera and declares, “It’s not a sin to be white.”

The language used by Barr is a variation of the phrase “It’s OK to be white,” which has been adopted by white supremacists. It has been designated as a “hate slogan“ by the Anti-Defamation League."

"What this means is that RFK’s position as Trump’s chief snake-oil death dealer could affect global development of new vaccines for shingles, herpes, and the Epstein-Barr virus, the latter of which has been linked to some cancers."
4/4

"At the end of January, even before the latest RFK-engineered setback, Moderna’s CEO Stéphane Bancel said that the company was planning to pull back on crucial investments in late-stage mRNA vaccine trials."

"The FDA’s official reason was that the trial of the vaccine had been inadequate. But since Moderna had already discussed trial design with officials, this is pretty obviously an excuse meant to provide cover for Kennedy’s longstanding gibbering anti-vax quackery."

Trump somehow got worse on public health after covid He's incapable of learning lessons and actively resists it.

"In the Trump administration’s latest assault on public health, HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s crankified FDA refused last week to review the first mRNA flu vaccine developed by Moderna."

You *Can* Do Something To Hurt the Oligarchs Boycotts, strikes, and the Abstinence Fallacy.

Leverage, Abstinence, and Strike Prep. This is a great article for folks figuring out where to start and how to prepare for meaningful economic resistance against the billionaires backing MAGA fascism.

Who, exactly, is ICE arresting, jailing, and abusing? History will judge this a crime against humanity.

"According to newly leaked data from the Department of Homeland Security, less than 14 percent of the 400,000 immigrants arrested by ICE in the past year have either been charged with or convicted of violent crimes.

The vast majority of immigrants jailed by ICE have no criminal record at all."

"I didn't expect to be close enough to hear the anklets jingling on the shibari throuple. It was very intimate."

Trump/Miller/MAGA want the US to openly re-engage in the ethnic/cultural/spiritual genocides of the colonial powers to expand Christian Nationalism and white supremacy.

That a brown Latino was the standard-bearer at Munich is not lost on me.

"[...] Freedom of speech ends here with us when that speech is directed against human dignity and the basic law. We do not believe in tariffs and protectionism, but in free trade. We stand by climate agreements and the World Health Organization.”"

US ‘not powerful enough to go it alone’, Merz tells Munich conference German chancellor rebuts idea of American unilateralism and says ‘democracies have partners and allies’

"Merz drew most applause from an audience brimming with hostility toward US unilateralism when he directly criticised the current American administration, saying: “The culture war of the Maga movement is not ours. [...]"

"But it was just as dangerous, if not more so, precisely because it lowered the transatlantic temperature and may have lulled Europe into a false sense of calm. As Benjamin Haddad, France’s Europe minister, said in Munich, the European temptation may be to press the snooze button once again."

The fact that such history has also bred nationalism, racism, fascism and colonialism is apparently nothing to be ashamed of.

Rubio’s message was more sophisticated and strategic than Vance’s."

Why Marco Rubio’s ‘reassuring’ speech to Europe was nothing of the kind | Nathalie Tocci After JD Vance’s frontal attack in Munich last year, the secretary of state’s tone seemed almost soothing. That’s just a new Maga trap, says Guardian Europe columnist Nathalie Tocci

"Rubio’s speech was more subtle and coherent, but he in essence sang from the same hymn sheet: the message from Washington remains that Europe and the US should be defined by ethno-political values of culture, tradition and religion."

Hegseth (boorishly): Russia's cool. NATO sucks. Your security problem, Europe, is you're too brown and gay.

Vance (condescendingly): Russia's cool. Your security problem is you're too brown and Muslim.

Rubio (politely): Who cares about Russia. Your problem is you're not white or Christian enough.

Yeah, about last Friday’s low inflation numbers?They were a tiny reprieve OR they were cooked. Either way, the news is not good for consumers.

I must question if these defense contractors are reliable partners for the US.

CEO fantasizes about spraying fentanyl-laced piss on analysts. Founder defends illegal boat strikes because they're "masculine."
Not to mention all the things Peter Thiel is up to.

The right people for long-term trust?
