If your post begins with “AITAH” I’m just gonna call it: Yes. Yes you are. This frame for storytelling is tired and full of unnecessary grievance-stoking. Its mere invocation is assholery.

There are better ways to reassure yourself. Maybe try some therapy or your actual IRL friends.

What Happens When You Flip the Switch, Part 3 In our final part of this 3-part series, we talk about how the electric grid is regulated, and what we have to do to get a more resilient grid fit for the climate challenge, mundanely AND magically.

Part 3 of 3!! open.substack.com/pub/witching...

Fellowship isn’t built on the perfection of its participants, but in the heat of the collective struggle with our flaws.

What Happens When You Flip the Switch, Part 2 What is the grid and why it's one of the most important things we need to focus on to really reach our climate goals

GET IN WITCHES! More info about the US electric grid and its role in climate action. Remember, it’s easier to change systems when you know how they work! Part 2 of a 3 part series….

When you tell me you don’t like how a platform makes you “watch your words too closely,” what you’re telling me is you think you’re entitled to injure people and not be held accountable.

Son, if you’re grown enough to use your words, you’re grown enough to be held responsible for how you use them.

My takeaway from season 2 of “America’s Sweethearts” is fuck the Cowboys for not paying these women a living wage.

We need to stop socializing women to believe that a company making gobs of money off their labor has the right to underpay them, because they are doing a thing they love.

I also love how this “argument” doesn’t apply to say, Truth Social or Telegram or any of the right wing echo chambers. We’re slagged for not being 24/7 accessible to them, but no think pieces about the damage from the right wing echo chamber. This bish can get bent

Why Love Always Defeats Hate During Pride Month, I'm going to take a minute to talk about why love always wins. But only if we choose it.

What Happens When You Flip the Switch - Part 1 Usually you don't need to care about what happens when you turn the light switch on. But if you want to make change on climate, it sure does help.

GET IN WITCHES!! If you want to make change, it helps to understand the system you’re trying to change. If we want cleaner choices to power our future, we need to understand how electric power and utilities work in the U.S. Part 1 in a series: open.substack.com/pub/witching...

It’s been a minute since I’ve had to end a reply to a troll with “Go in peace, child. Mama’s done with you now.”

People don’t know who they are fooling with sometimes…

What Eurovision Can Teach Us About the Craft Maybe this is an excuse to blog about Eurovision. But maybe there's something we all can learn.

EUROVISION! It's a song contest AND a pretty interesting lesson for us about our craft!

Food Network’s “24 in 24:Last Chef Standing” is bonkers. Absolutely insane. What kind of masochistic murder hobo do you have to be to sign up for this? #24in24 #foodnetwork

I feel you. We’re in a similar process with my Dad. It’s time consuming, expensive and exhausting. Do not be afraid to enlist the help of professional services, especially with the house. Hugs

Consumption, Climate, and Corporations Like it or not, engaging corporations is an essential part of climate action. And doing it right involves more than just boycotts.

LET'S GO, WITCHES!!
Sure, we don't like corporations to have so much control over so much of our lives, but we need to get their emissions in line to meet our climate goals. Here's info on why and how to engage with corporations, beyond boycotts
#witchsky #druidsky #heathensky #occultsky

I cut out Target a while back when I was trying to reduce my overall consumption, particularly fast fashion. We’ve all been there: you’re in Target for a thing, because it’s so cheap and easy you end up with more shit than you intended to buy. Getting off that hamster wheel was the best thing ever

The most important climate solution you're NOT doing, but really should Why talking about climate change is one of the most important ways to act on climate

GET IN WITCHES! We’re gonna talk about the best climate solution an individual can do that you’re probably NOT already doing.
Let’s talk about why you’re not talking about climate change, and how you can get started.

When I was 8, there was a small attic next to my room. I found a kid’s Bible and a copy of D’Aulieres Greek Myths. D’Aulieres was WAY more compelling and my family was Greek anyway, so I figured the Greek gods had to be my gods. A few detours but that seed blossomed into the pagan and witch I am now
