This isn’t the most eloquent way to express it, but thank fuck for the arts Thank fuck for books Thank fuck for drawing and painting Thank fuck for movies Thank fuck for video games Thank fuck for all the creatives out there who will help us cope the next 4 years whether by escapism or a rally cry

Witch Tip: Have trouble visualizing energy when creating a shield or other energy constructs? Take a picture of yourself and print it out. Layer a piece of transparent paper over your picture and draw what you want your shield to look like. Focus intently and feel the energy flow. #witchsky

🚨I basically hijacked my class tonight and talked about the threat of fascism, why Tr*mp and his cronies are distracting us (and their actual motives), and why we should care!! I feel powerful as fuck. Everyone was fully locked in and curious, asking questions. Imma make a video and post soon!!

We can’t fight *everything* at once. We need to split into groups, each focusing on a specific issue. That way, we can go deep, be effective, and actually make an impact. More action, less reaction.

It's that time of year again...

If you can say, “hey, I had fun seeing nice things like _____ on _____” then you have won out. Try to look for nice things that make you happy here, and stick to that. If more people do that, then they’ll be better off.

Let people say what they say. You can’t control them and they are NOT as important as they want you to think they are, and believe me they will say ANYTHING to trick you into feeding them.

Let them be lonely if the only way they reach out is to inspire hate. That’s how you protect yourself. For gods sake there’s better uses for this site. Pics of cats, funny comics, or news about space. That’s what I want to see, so that’s what I’ll look for.

It’s the only thing they feel they have, and despote what they or you may believe, they’re probably unable to thrive off of anything else because they don’t know what else to thrive off of. Mute things you find bad, tune your recommendations, and DO NOT FALL into their problems.

If you see some post or reply that’s intended to get a rise out of you, don’t even bother with it. Whoever is writing it wants to feel important enough to be hated.
