Personal Protection: Surviving the Holidays
I'm of the opinion that far too many people around this time of year are fucking around, and it's high time they get to the finding out part. With major holidays right around the corner, many of us will be facing relatives we'd rather not see, parties we'd rather not go to, and conversations we'd rather avoid or exit as soon as possible. Political spats, unwanted opinions, snide remarks -- I believe that what you give out, you ought to receive back.
So, obviously, let's do some magic about it.
There are three main components to my method:
The Bubble;
The Quills; and
The Shake
The Bubble
Exactly what it sounds like, "the bubble" is the outermost layer of protection around you. It's the barrier between you and the unpleasantness you're trying to keep out.
The bubble can be one item carried or worn (such as a hat, crystal, or charm), or it can be multiple. I usually spring for two items, one to absorb/recycle and one to bounce/return to sender.
Absorb:
I've got a relative who is, at their essence, a fucking downer. That would be fine if not for the fact that if they're having a bad time or are mildly uncomfortable, it's about to be everyone's problem. This kind of negativity is something to absorb, not bounce. Sending it back would only double their misery, and that's no good for anyone.
So, instead, I have a special charm that I make for occasions when I know they're going to be around. It consists of a little piece of sponge that's sat in salt for a while atop a transformative sigil. The sponge, once fully charged and ready, will absorb the negative energy and recycle it into more positive feelings.
This means that their negativity won't impact me at all, and I actively improve the atmosphere. Their bad attitude can't do anything if everyone around us is only getting good vibes. The charm is powered by the exchange of negative to positive energy, so it requires no charging. However, it's smart to discard the sponge once it's done its job.
Bounce:
But sometimes, somebody's got to face real consequences. There are some things I don't want to deal with at all. Like gross political opinions from my conservative, religious family members. Or questions about having children.
The idea of the bounce is to reflect things before they reach me. It's a sort of glamor spell that projects an aura of "don't bother." It essentially lets me be passed over for conversations I want to leave or avoid entirely by bouncing attention away from me.
Negative energy, bad vibes, whatever you want to call it -- the goal is to return it to where it's coming from. Someone who's being an asshole will feel like an asshole. If it works right, they'll stop talking altogether because they're so irritated with what they're saying. I've had aggressive, vocal relatives go completely silent because they were receiving their own rancid energy back to themselves instead of the attention they were hoping for.
For me, this spell takes the form of a charm on my keys. It's a form of an evil eye charm -- not the blue-eyed stare you most likely think of, but another symbol meant to distract attention from me to it. It's a little pewter casting of the fig sign, an old and obscene gesture. It works on malevolent spirits best, but it does a great job of repelling unfortunate people, too. It bounces their nonsense back to themselves, often causing confusion, which forces them to reconsider what they're saying.
Again, this lives on my keys, which live in a key bowl when they're not clipped to my pocket or belt loop. The key bowl has a multi-purpose charging setup for the keys, my wallet, and other assorted charms I might wear when I go out.
The Quills
Sometimes, things get past our main line of defenses. That's fine, it happens. But under these circumstances, it happens because someone has deliberately crossed a line. So now, they get the quills.
When I say "the quills," you should be picturing something like a porcupine. Adorable, yes, but fuck with it at your own risk. Those quills aren't just for show, and neither should yours be. This is your second line of defense, and it's where we turn to offense.
Accordingly, the quills aren't passive spells like the bubble. These require conscious activation and direction to give you maximum control over their output. You can make your quills passive, but I often find that baneful workings work best when you're specifically choosing to use them.
Yes, baneful, and let me be perfectly clear: The goal is to harm whoever's crossed the line. You're not just returning to sender. You're catching what they've thrown at you, lighting it on fire, and pitching it back at full force.
To that end, there are two approaches I typically take (and are you sensing a pattern? I like to do things in twos). One spell to sharpen the tongue and give as good as I've gotten, and one to induce the smallest of lingering curses on the target.
Sharpen
The whole point of the quills is to make yourself an inconvenient, difficult target. Part of being difficult to swallow is not going down easily. Often, the answer is to avoid the conversation or problem altogether, but it isn't always possible. Or satisfying.
Sometimes, you gotta take a bitch down.
For me, this charm needs to do two things. It should boost my confidence in standing my ground and add some oomph to my argument. I have a pin with a particular design on it charmed for this purpose. The needle operates as the quill for stabbing (the oomph), and the design provides the confidence. Anointed with my Fuck Off Oil and laid in a dish of salt, garlic, and red chili flakes, the pin becomes extra spicy and effective.
This one has to be recharged each time it's used. It always lives on the same jacket, but I'll anoint it regularly to keep it fresh. If I use the charm on someone, I'll take the pin off at the end of the night and set it in the spicy salt mixture.
Linger
By far one of the most effective methods for reducing nonsense from unpleasant people I interact with regularly is lingering consequences. When someone associates bad luck with interacting with you, even on a subconscious level, they tend to avoid you.
Consider this the "slow poison" on the quills. The goal isn't to ruin their life by any means (although, I suppose you could...). It's just to make yourself unpalatable on an instinctive level. Think of how poisonous frogs are brightly colored to display that they're, you know, deadly. That's what we're doing here.
I prefer to use something kind of dangerous. Something you can hold onto and point with is best, in my experience. I've used a broken piece of glass, a rusty nail or screw, and various thorns. Right now, I'm using one half of a rusty pair of old cooking shears. The handle broke, but the blades are still sharp as hell. Waste not, and all that.
Anoint whatever the sharp, dangerous thing is in an oil infused with herbs and spices of your choice (again, the Fuck Off Oil is a good example). Or, if you prefer, coat it in something like hot sauce, urine, rust, or other corrosive and unpleasant things. Once prepared, stow it in your bag. Or your glove box, if you drive, since this makes a nice on-the-go curse to cast at shitty drivers.
You don't need to pull it out for it to work, but if you can get to a safe, secluded space (like a bathroom), it can help you focus. When you're creating it, you should set up an activation word, phrase, or motion. I prefer a motion -- something like tapping wherever the object is, a swirling movement with my hand, and then pointing at the target.
The curse you place is up to you. I tend to go for something like feeling nauseous or getting a headache. The spell should draw a connection between them being nasty to you and the unpleasant feeling, whether overt or subconscious. They'll be more cautious and reluctant to be a dick to you afterwards.
The Shake
Like a dog. Get that shit off of yourself.
No matter how thorough you are, there are always gaps and particularly stubborn people getting into them. Something they say just sticks to you like a burr, sharp and irritating. Or depressing, maybe.
The idea behind the shake is literal. You're forcibly removing the heavy weight or annoying itch someone else has placed on you. The shake isn't necessarily an item like with the bubble and quills. It can be, but it doesn't have to be.
Essentially, the steps to the shake are:
Identify what feels bad
Shake that shit
Resume normal activities
Maybe it's the neurodivergent in me, but physical movement is incredibly soothing. Self-regulation tactics are essential for survival. Transforming that into a little spell ritual at the same time is just two birds with one stone.
When things get overwhelming or I can feel my bubble failing to keep everything out at once (such as if a fight breaks out or someone decides to go in depth about one of my triggers), I remove myself from the situation. That's the first step. Retreat to a safe place, whether that's outside, in my car, in the bathroom, or elsewhere that's quiet. The second step is to figure out where in my body the anxiety or bad feeling is sitting. Often, it's in my shoulders and hands, but sometimes it's elsewhere.
Step three is to fucking shake. Shake those hands, roll my shoulders, jump up and down. Whatever it takes. As I do, I'm forcibly dislodging everything unpleasant out of myself and into the open air. And because I've got the negativity-absorbing bubble, it'll take the bad feeling and repurpose it into something more positive. Then, once I'm better, I can go back.
Again, you don't need an object for this, but you can certainly create one. Options would be comforting items, fidget toys, or even something like a joint. Sometimes, you just gotta blow smoke about it. You know?
Fun fact, though: You could also carry a vessel to contain the Bad Feelings for later use instead of letting your bubble absorb them. This comes in handy for people who are particularly abusive... as an example of what you want them to experience under the force of a more involved cursing.
If you like my work, consider throwing a tip my way! Supporters get early, exclusive, and extended access to my work for as low as $1.

My Excitement Over Cleaning Supplies
So recently I’ve been seeing many recommendations for Grove Collaborative for nicer cleaning supplies without a strong amount of chemical. I remembered my family using it at one point so I decided to give it a try myself.
The first time you shop there, a large amount of free gifts are provided, then you sign up for the VIP programs for special deals and for an automatic reorder every month for the items you keep in your cart.
I will tell you, I was enticed by the apple and pumpkin fall collections and I am OBSESSED. Not only do the products actually work but they smell so nice!! And they also will send you a reusable spray bottle for their fantastic multi purpose cleaning concentrate. Im in love and I highly recommend for my fellow homemakers!
What I purchased (all in the scents Mulled Apple, Spiced Pumpkin, Apple Cider, or Blood Orange)
- Multi purpose concentrate and bottle
- Hand soap and pump
- Air fresher
- Hand sanitizer
- Garbage bags (wonderful quality, don’t break easily)
- Walnut dish sponges
- Microfiber cleaning clothes

How to clean a kitchen from top to bottom.
First go around and make sure all the dishes are in the kitchen and there is none just sitting in another room. It’s the worst feeling to think you cleaned everything just to find a stray cup on your nightstand.
Remember you can always wear gloves especially when handling dirty dishes (it’s a horrible sensation for me so I refuse to do it without gloves)
Now this depends on if you have a dishwasher or not but I will do both.
If you don’t have a dishwasher
Clear your sink completely (put all dishes on the counters try to stack them neatly)
Fill one sink with hot soapy water (not to hot you are gonna use your hands)
Start one stack at a time. Scrap any food off them into the trash, scrub them with sponge/brush, rinse throughly.
If you have a drying rack put your clean dishes there. If not use a good sized towel on the counter and place the clean dishes there.
Once you have run out of place to put clean dishes drain the soapy water and take a clean towel and begin drying and putting away.
Refill your sink and repeat until you have completed all the dishes.
If you have a dishwasher it’s a little easier but basically the same concept.
First make sure your dishwasher is empty.
Then fill it (make sure there is as many dishes as possible)
Start it
Then do the other plan for the rest of the dishes.
Good job you completed the dishes feel free to take a break and makes sure you drink water and have a snack.
Next is counter tops.
First anything that doesn’t belong on the counters needs to go (just place it in the room it goes in don’t get distracted trying to find the right place)
Now that the clutter is off take everything off and wipe down the counters (I always just wipe all the crumbs onto the floor because I am going to sweep anyway but you can always put them in the garbage)
Then go with a hot wet rag and some multi purpose spray and clean off the counters.
Put everything back.
It should be pretty good now. Take a break and then work on your fridge.
Take everything out of your fridge
Throw away anything that smells, looks bad, or that is about to expire.
Take a multi purpose spray and rag and wipe the inside and outside.
Put everything back in a way that makes sense to you (I don’t put produce in the produce bin’s because I always forget about them instead I place them up front so I see them, do what is right for you)
Now time for the floors.
Sweep everything up.
Optional but then mop ( I prefer using an bucket and mop but a swifer also works)
Let it dry (use this for a nice long break)
Finishing touches (not necessary but are good to do if you have the energy)
Take all the trash out (this should take away any smell that your kitchen might have had)
Wipe down cabinets and appliances.
Put a little cup of water in the microwave and then start it for about a minute. The steam will make anything in the microwave come off easier.
Clean your oven (this is a whole different beast in itself but good to do every now and again)
Turn your toaster upside down over the trash (you wouldn’t believe the amount of crumbs in there)
Pour some vinegar into your coffee pot and run it (does leave the vinegar smell which I don’t mind but can be a lot)
Run ice and lemons through your garbage disposal (gets rid of the smell)
Make a simmer pot to make your kitchen smell heavenly. Place water and a bunch of spices/aromatics into a pot and bring to a boil then simmer. (Don’t forget about it though that’s dangerous)
Congratulations you throughly cleaned your kitchen. Remember cleaning your kitchen is kind of a never ending task but if you keep up on it regularly it won’t be as bad. There will be some weeks when it’s easier to clean once a week than once a day and that is perfectly fine. Do what works best for you.

A living document
So, what is it that I'm doing here, sitting on the periphery of things, the edge of ideologies?
This is a special and, honestly, difficult day. It is a reminder of someone whom I loved very much. I know too much about grief and loss for someone who hasn't seen as much literal death as many people have; particularly, in this moment.
Many feelings and experiences seem to lie at the heart of the cult escapee's experience, including this familiar feeling of severing - of losing people who are very much living, who occupy space and time in a manner that is intimately acquainted to you, or that you're used to being very familiar with. Knowing you'll never see several people again, that your paths will diverge now, that like a coin flip you're eventually an enemy... In a way, it's a lot of break ups happening all at once. So much love lost - what can be done with this love? Possibly similar to experiencing a string of deaths in one's family (an experience that is, in fact, known to me), but with the added injury of having self-inflicted this pain with an eye to healing.
In some ways, leaving a cult, particularly for someone raised in it, is as radical an experience as the act of entering one for someone who wasn't raised in it. There is a symmetry to these things: the parent, grandparent, or ancestor completely leaves their understanding of reality and gains a lease on life, a sense of purpose, a community by adopting a new set of beliefs and leaving their old lifestyle behind. Similarly, their child or grandchild abandons the set of beliefs they are raised with to experience life in a completely different way - to completely rewrite their understanding of normal. Both child and ancestor are engaging in acts of curiosity and hope: they are rewriting how they transact with the world, how they relate to others, and so, in a lacunary fashion, leaving a cult or movement actually brings the younger generation closer to the parents who entered it even if proximity is removed or attachment is severed by leaving.
Interestingly, then, these multi-generational churches and movements, are stuck becoming a duopoly: they have to, of course, continue their current recruitment efforts, and they have to cater to an audience that has never been initiated from any other reality - that has never experienced the intensity, clarity, certainty, or euphoria around entering this space. There is no door for the latter audience to walk through, except out. How can they be kept sated - how can they be convinced that they have it so good that they never want to leave, or how can they be fed such despair about ordinary reality that it seems discolored and lacking any allure?
There are reasons why I wonder all this; reasons having to do with someone I've loved a lot, who is no longer accessible to me. It has been my choice to pull away from her, and now it seems that there is no going back - she was deeply hurt. Knowing her past breakups, she adheres to No Contact no matter what. Leave it to someone raised in a cult to understand how to go cold turkey serially, no matter the history or the true emotional cost.
I am living that 20s theme where some of us find ourselves consecutively severing relationships, becoming increasingly untethered, as the gaps in our lives and hearts are left unfilled. I find comfort in the memory of movies like Sleeping Beauty by Julia Leigh, even if I don't rewatch them because of the shame, the degradation.
Some of these losses feel like a gain: I am porous, elastic, like a sponge full of blood vessels and with eyes, free to stretch, bend, breathe in ways that weren't possible when I had fixed myself to accommodate things that didn't totally fit, and I couldn't admit it, thinking sometimes that I was just the worse for wear or unrested... Why is it, anyway, that sometimes a little bit of rest, a little bit of love, can make us anew?
And then there are times when the losses just leave this emptiness... Like a white noise machine at the top of its lungs, sucking us into the void with its O-gape scream. In times like those, I'm moving towards a siren barefoot, too saturated with dread to register the metallic chill of the rocks in this hypothermic air. So magnetized by the moment, I lose sight of the future and of myself.
This is the act of intentionally numbing yourself - something we never quite realize is taking a lot of effort and investment... How cycles or spiraling trick us into thinking they're effortless just because they have aced the short circuit. I brought you to a checkout line so quick and you do not remember how you got here instead of on that social media page for the ex you were initially planning to cyberstalk. "This doesn't exhaust you", the Devil always manages to say, unearthing some supernatural energy that cannot be found in routine.
(If Facebook were a family of functions, it would be mapping every human feeling or experience to an array of products, based on location, class, etc too of course. Any feelings you have, any connections you have, can be redirected towards shopping. Sometimes, I do wonder if cults work kind of the same: sublimate/repress what isn't useful for the cult's self preservation or proliferation, and the rest of feeling and connection can be subsumed to things within the cult. How much more of ourselves, of life, we can experience by metaphorically amputating some parts of ourselves. And, who knows, maybe sometimes it actually is a reasonable deal for some people: I'm sure some gain more than they lose.)
Anyhow, the promise of access to these hidden reserves of supernatural energy is part of what's, well, exhilarating about alternative lifestyles and religions. There is something about the humdrum of life, of routine, that makes us feel like we're not enough. Somebody or something seems to want more of us than we feel like we have, more of us than we can reasonably manage - at least not without some tailoring of our fundamental realities.
In America, our jobs are very good at this; frankly, in any economy that isn't developed it is common to break your back, but in America it's continually surprising because things will always be like this, no matter how developed or wealthy America gets to be.
There are too many ways to feel deficient, fractured, especially once you're already closely acquainted with this feeling because of the gift of history, of a continu: things were broken at the root, and don't people who know me, don't past memories, all love to remind me of this? Rites of passage swirl with all the bad stuff, so how can you forget? They are embedded in the reference points of your existence.
Personally, I could never be enough for my parents' egos - how could I possibly compensate for their insecurities, their proclaimed losses from choosing to birth, raise, and abuse me? And still, I haven't fallen into a single cult or movement, but chronically find myself in close proximity to cult members or recent/budding escapees. Where does this repeat proximity come from? Why are both parties magnetized by each other?
In any case, when it comes to her (the one whom I am recalling today), whether it be a kindness or a laziness, goodbye it is.

Unveiling the Sparkle: Innovations Driving Growth in the Cosmetics Household Cleaners Market
Tumblr media
Household Cleaners: Your Allies in Keeping Your Home Sparkling Clean Types of Common Household Cleaners Household cleaners come in a wide variety of types to suit different cleaning needs. Some of the most popular types are:
All-Purpose Cleaners: All-purpose cleaners are great multi-taskers that can be used for cleaning different surfaces around the home like floors, countertops, sinks, refrigerators etc. They are effective for removing grease, dirt and stains without being too harsh. Look for alcohol-free, pH balanced formulas that don't leave residues.
Glass Cleaners: Glass cleaners are formulated to thoroughly remove streaks, fingerprints, dust and grease from windows, mirrors and other glass surfaces. Ammonia-free varieties are gentler on hands. Opt for squeegee equipped trigger sprays for easier streak-free cleaning of large glass areas.
Bleach Cleaners: Bleach containing cleaners work very well for disinfecting and removing tough stains and odors. They are suitable for bathrooms, kitchens and other germy areas but need to be handled with care as direct exposure to skin can cause irritation. Dilute as per package instructions before use.
Furniture Polishes: Polishes lightly moisturize wood furniture while removing dust. They impart a nice shine without leaving residues. Look for varieties made from natural oils and waxes. Opt for polishes without silicones if you have pets that like to scratch furniture.
Disinfectant Cleaners: Disinfectant cleaners kill 99.9% of germs and bacteria to keep surfaces hygienic. They are well suited for floors, bathrooms, changing tables, highchairs etc. Use products with bleach or alcohol as the active ingredient when extra disinfecting power is needed.
Natural/Organic Cleaners: If conventional cleaners seem too harsh, opt for natural varieties made from plant-derived ingredients like essential oils, baking soda, vinegar, hydrogen peroxide. They clean nearly as well without the use of toxic chemicals.
Tips for Storing Cleaners
Proper storage of cleaners helps keep them in good condition, prevents accidental spills and hazards. Some storage best practices are: - Store in original containers and bottles away from reach of children and pets. Clearly label home-brewed solutions. - Keep cleaners in a dedicated storage space like under the sink or a shelf in the laundry/utility room. Avoid storing in the pantry. - Don't mix cleaners together in spray bottles as certain combinations can produce hazardous gases. Prepare solutions in small batches as needed. - Place heavy bottles at bottom and lighter bottles above. Secure with a childproof latch if stored under the sink. -Stand bottles upright and securely tighten caps after each use. Laying bottles on sides risks leaks. -Don't store cleaners in direct sunlight, under sinks or anywhere excessively damp which can damage labels or corrode containers over time. -Clearly label homemade or refilled spray bottles and date them so old solutions don't get used by mistake. Dispose unwanted solutions as per guidelines. -Safely discard empty containers in outdoor trash to prevent accidental poisonings or misuse. Never reuse to store food or other items. Cleaning Tools and Equipment Having the right cleaning tools makes cleaning easier and more effective. Some essential tools include: -All-purpose microfiber cloths - Highly effective for dusting, polishing, drying and streak-free cleaning of all types of surfaces. -Dusting tools - Feather or extendable dusters, microfiber cloth wraps for fan blades, furniture slats etc -Cleaning rags - Rags made of cloth like cotton or microfiber for damp wiping of surfaces. -Mops - String mops for hard floors, sponge mops for all floor types, wet/dry mops. -Brooms - Corn or palm bristle brooms, dustpans -Vacuums - Upright, canister or robot vacuums for different flooring types and needs. -Scrub brushes - Brushes with nylon bristles of various sizes and hardness levels for scrubbing surfaces. -Cleaning gloves - Gloves protect hands when working with harsh chemicals. -Buckets, caddies, organizers - For holding cleaning tools and supplies in one place. -Extension poles - For attaching microfiber cloths or dusters to reach high areas safely. -Pressure sprayers - For applying cleaners to larger surfaces like siding, decks, fences and more. Regular maintenance like washing cloth tools, decluttering and disinfecting surfaces holding cleaning supplies also helps ensure a hygienic cleaning environment.
