Another aesthetic I love, since you liked the last post

Jewish dark academia

This is the aesthetic of:

Studying jewish mythology, mysticism and history, oh my!

Reading jewish folk tales

Sitting in the sinagogue's wooden chairs, reading the Torah from an old book donated to the sinagogue years ago, still with a small note on the last page, left by the person who donated it.

Listening to organ music as you pray, holding a book with marks of lipstick on the cover, left when someone kissed the book after dropping it on the ground.

Being a convert, and diving into the study of judaism as if you were a university student, knowing that the knowledge you gather will change the course of your life.

Being an old rabbi with a house full of books in every shelf.

A teenager who left the sinagogue and chose to spend the service outside next to the door, reading a book of their choice, while listening to the distant praying voices coming from inside the sinagogue.

(The first image is a drawing I made. The rest isn't mine)

#so it happens im converting to judaism #so sorry to everyone who followed me for witchcraft #i will still be doing spiritual things #however i will now be also jewish #so no more fictional representations of the divine sorry #:( sorry

The Magical Girl Guide to: Kitsune

Finally, an excuse to use a gif of Kurama.

Whether it’s because of a huge interest in yokai or anime, most who indulge in either topic know of the Japanese fox spirit known as the kitsune. To be more specific, you’ve probably specifically heard of the nine-tailed foxes. So if you are a practitioner of witchcraft, more specifically, spirit work, there’s a chance you are interested in working with kitsune but aren’t entirely sure where to start.

So my hopes with this post is to give those interested in kitsune a place to start their research. This post includes the folklore of kitsune first and then my own UPG. 

This is my personal experience, not the End All Be All Guide to kitsune. This is merely just a push in the right direction to get started with doing your own research, if you wish to work with them. A tumblr post shouldn’t be your only point of research.

what is a kitsune?

By definition, a kitsune “are intelligent foxes that possess paranormal abilities that increase as they get older and wiser.” In other words, kitsune are magical fox spirits from Japanese folklore.

While all kitsune start with one tail from birth, kitsune grow an additional tail for every century they are alive. Once they’ve achieved their ninth tail, however, regardless of much older they get, they stop gaining tails.

kitsune in folklore: the ranking system + types of kitsune

With the basics of what a kitsune is out of the way, this leads to the various kinds of kitsune in folklore. Beyond the simplicity of being fox spirits, in folklore kitsune society is actually quite elaborate with two main categories of kitsune and the subcategories within those categories.

These two main categories in folklore are the zenko (good foxes) and yako (field/wild foxes).

ೄྀ࿐ ˊˎ- Magicalgirlboy

Magical girl boy is a gender used when someone feels male usually and would prefer to be seen as male and other masc genders usually then only feels like a girl when it comes to magical girls they wouldn’t mind being called a girl, some may or may not feel that it affects their gender presentation while some would still present as male while some may present as a girl when they feel like a magical girl, it may feel differently for people who use this xeno.

It’s important to remember magical girl boys still are male while being magical girls so this xeno fits boys who feel like magical girls even if their a boy!

The flag represents the blue fading into pink which means the male side of someone slowly becoming mor of a girl when it comes to magical girls, the male sign behind the female sign is to show the male part is their still even if their a magical girl. The wings and hearts represents magical girls <3

URGENT: 🚨🚨EARN IT ACT IS BACK IN THE SENATE 🚨🚨 TUMBLR’S NSFW BAN HITTING THE ENTIRE INTERNET THIS SUMMER 2023

April 28, 2023

I’m so sorry for the long post but please please please pay attention and spread this

What is the EARN IT Act?

The EARN IT Act (s. 1207) has been roundly condemned by nearly every major LGBTQ+ advocacy and human rights organization in the country.

This is the third time the Senate has been trying to force this through, and I talked about it last year. It is a bill that claims "protects children and victims against CSAM" by creating an unelected and politically appointed national commission of law enforcement specialists to dictate "best practices" that websites all across the nation will be forced to follow. (Keep in mind, most websites in the world are created in the US, so this has global ramifications). These "best practices" would include killing encryption so that any law enforcement can scan and see every single message, dm, photo, cloud storage, data, and any website you have every so much as glanced at. Contrary to popular belief, no they actually can't already do that. These "best practices" also create new laws for "removing CSAM" online, leading to mass censorship of non-CSAM content like what happened to tumblr. Keep in mind that groups like NCOSE, an anti-LGBT hate group, will be allowed on this commission. If websites don't follow these best practices, they lose their Section 230 protections, leading to mass censorship either way.

Section 230 is foundational to modern online communications. It's the entire reason social media exists. It grants legal protection to users and websites, and says that websites aren't responsible for what users upload online unless it's criminal. Without Section 230, websites are at the mercy of whatever bullshit regulatory laws any and every US state passes. Imagine if Texas and Florida were allowed to say what you can and can't publish and access online. That is what will happen if EARN IT passes. (For context, Trump wanted to get rid of Section 230 because he knew it would lead to mass govt surveillance and censorship of minorities online.)

This is really not a drill. Anyone who makes or consume anything “adult” and LGBT online has to be prepared to fight Sen. Blumenthal’s EARN IT Act, brought back from the grave by a bipartisan consensus to destroy Section 230. If this bill passes, we’re going to see most, if not all, adult content and accounts removed from mainstream platforms. This will include anything related to LGBT content, including SFW fanfiction, for example. Youtube, Twitter, Reddit, Tiktok, Tumblr, all of them will be completely gutted of anything related to LGBT content, abortion healthcare, resources for victims of any type of abuse, etc. It is a right-wing fascists wet dream, which is why NCOSE is behind this bill and why another name for this bill is named in reference to NCOSE.

NCOSE used to be named Morality in Media, and has rebranded into an "anti-trafficking" organization. They are a hate group that has made millions off of being "against trafficking" while helping almost no victims and pushing for homophobic laws globally. They have successfully pushing the idea that any form of sexual expression, including talking about HEALTH, leads to sex trafficking. That's how SESTA passed. Their goal is to eliminate all sex, anything gay, and everything that goes against their idea of ‘God’ from the internet and hyper disney-fy and sanitize it. This is a highly coordinated attack on multiple fronts.

The EARN IT Act will lead to mass online censorship and surveillance. Platforms will be forced to scan their users’ communications and censor all sex-related content, including sex education, literally anything lgbt, transgender or non-binary education and support systems, aything related to abortion, and sex worker communication according to the ACLU. All this in the name of “protecting kids” and “fighting CSAM”, both of which the bill does nothing of the sort. In fact it makes fighting CSEM even harder.

EARN IT will open the way for politicians to define the category of “pornography" as they — or the lobbies that fund them — please. The same way that right-wing groups have successfully banned books about race and LGBT, are banning trans people from existing, all under the guise of protecting children from "grooming and exploitation", is how they will successfully censor the internet.

As long as state legislatures can tie in "fighting CSAM" to their bullshit laws, they can use EARN IT to censor and surveill whatever they want.

This is already a nightmare enough. But the bill also DESTROYS ENCRYPTION, you know, the thing protecting literally anyone or any govt entity from going into your private messages and emails and anything on your devices and spying on you.

This bill is going to finish what FOSTA/SESTA started. And that should terrify you.

Senator Blumenthal (Same guy who said ‘Facebook should ban finsta’) pushed this bill all of 2020, literally every activist (There were more than half a million signatures on this site opposing this act!) pushed hard to stop this bill. Now he brings it back, doesn’t show the text of the bill until hours later, and it’s WORSE. Instead of fixing literally anything in the bill that might actually protect kids online, Bluemnthal is hoping to fast track this and shove it through, hoping to get little media attention other than propaganda of “protecting kids” to support this shitty legislation that will harm kids. Blumental doesn't care about protecting anyone, and only wants his name in headlines.

It will make CSAM much much worse.

One of the many reasons this bill is so dangerous: It totally misunderstands how Section 230 works, and in doing so (as with FOSTA) it is likely to make the very real problem of CSAM worse, not better. Section 230 gives companies the flexibility to try different approaches to dealing with various content moderation challenges. It allows for greater and greater experimentation and adjustments as they learn what works – without fear of liability for any “failure.” Removing Section 230 protections does the opposite. It says if you do anything, you may face crippling legal liability. This actually makes companies less willing to do anything that involves trying to seek out, take down, and report CSAM because of the greatly increased liability that comes with admitting that there is CSAM on your platform to search for and deal with. This liability would allow anyone for any reason to sue any platform they want, suing smaller ones out of existence. Look at what is happening right now with book bans across the nation with far right groups. This is going to happen to the internet if this bill passes.

(Remember, the state department released a report in December 2021 recommending that the government crack down on “obscenity” as hard the Reagan Administration did. If this bill passes, it could easily go way beyond shit red states are currently trying. It is a goldmine for the fascist right that is currently in the middle of banning every book that talks about race and sexuality across the US.)

The reason these bills keep showing up is because there is this false lie spread by organizations like NCOSE that platforms do nothing about CSEM online. However, platforms are already liable for child sexual exploitation under federal law. Tech companies sent more than 45 million+ instances of CSAM to the DOJ in 2019 alone, most of which they declined to investigate. This shows that platforms are actually doing everything in their power already to stop CSEM by following already existing laws. The Earn It Act includes zero resources for proven investigation or prevention programs. If Senator Bluementhal actually cared about protecting youth, why wouldn’t he include anything to actually protect them in his shitty horrible bill? EARN IT is actually likely to make prosecuting child molesters more difficult since evidence collected this way likely violates the Fourth Amendment and would be inadmissible in court.

I don’t know why so many Senators are eager to cosponsor the “make child pornography worse” bill, but here we are.

HOW TO FIGHT BACK

EARN IT Act was introduced just two weeks ago and is already being fast-tracked. It will be marked up the week of May 1st and head to the Senate floor immediately after. If there is no loud and consistent opposition, it will be law by JUNE! Most bills never go to markup, so this means they are putting pressure to move this through. There are already 20 co-sponsors, a fifth of the entire Senate. This is an uphill battle and it is very much all hands on deck.

CALL YOUR REPRESENTATIVES.

This website takes you to your Senator / House members contact info. EMAIL, MESSAGE, SEND LETTERS, CALL CALL CALL CALL CALL. Calling is the BEST way to get a message through. Get your family and friends to send calls too. This is literally the end of free speech online.

[phone] connects you to the congressional hotline. Here is a call script if you don't know what to say. Call them every day. Even on the weekends, leaving voicemails are fine.

2. Sign these petitions!

Link to Petition 2

3. SPREAD THE WORD ONLINE

If you have any social media, spread this online. One of the best ways we fought back against this last year was MASSIVE spread online. Tiktok, reddit, twitter, discord, whatever means you have at least mention it. We could see most social media die out by this fall if we don't fight back.

Here is a linktree with more information on this bill including a masterpost of articles, the links to petitions, and the call script.

DISCORD LINK IF YOU WANT TO HELP FIGHT IT

TLDR: The EARN IT Act will lead to online censorship of any and all adult & lgbt content across the entire internet, open the floodgates to mass surveillance the likes which we haven’t seen before, lead to much more CSEM being distributed online, and destroy encryption. Call 202-224-3121 to connect to your house and senate representative and tell them to VOTE NO on this bill that does not protect anyone and harms everyone.

✨🌸 Celebrating Beltane 🌸✨

Hello darlings 🥰 

It’s almost Beltane! This Sabbat is a time for celebrating the fertility of the Earth and the coming of summer. Beltane is traditionally celebrated on May 1st, but some Pagans and Witches choose to celebrate on the Full Moon closest to that date, which falls on May 14th in 2023.

So, what can you do to celebrate and take advantage of this Beltane? Here are a few ideas: 

🌸 Create a Maypole: A Maypole is a traditional symbol of Beltane and represents the union of the masculine and feminine energies. You can create your own Maypole using a tall pole or tree, and decorate it with ribbons, flowers, and other symbols that resonate with you.

🌸 Light a Fire: Fire is another important symbol of Beltane, representing transformation and purification. You can light a fire in your backyard or at a nearby park (if allowed), and use it to release anything that no longer serves you. You can also use the fire to charge your tools and crystals.

🌸 Make Flower Crowns: Flowers are a beautiful representation of the Earth’s fertility and abundance. You can make your own flower crown using fresh flowers, leaves, and other natural materials. Wear it throughout the day as a reminder of the beauty and abundance around you.

🌸 Perform a Ritual: Beltane is a powerful time for manifestation and setting intentions. You can perform a ritual to honor the Earth, the God and Goddess, and your own personal power. You can also use this time to set intentions for the coming months and visualize what you want to manifest.

Remember, there are no right or wrong ways to celebrate Beltane. Follow your intuition and do what feels right for you. Happy Beltane, darlings! 🌺🔥🌿

With love, from a Sappy Witch 🔮💕 

Blessed be. 🕊✨
