They were holy houses of the dead once and we should never deride those who still hold them as holy. For among the many things we can say the Long Neolithic is, perhaps one of them is that it offers a continuing sense of the sacred. – Dr. K. Brophy #StandingStoneSunday

For as much as witchcraft is ancient and may be called a condition of humanity, so is the impulse to persecute. Every hanged and drowned witch spirit speaks to us not only of archaic barbarity against the marginalised, but as an ever modern warning of being othered. - Dr. Helen Wade, Woden College

The wise use the term witchcraft to describe the ability to nudge the universe. The fearful use it as label for their paranoia, their refusal to develop relationships with both the land and the enfolding world of spirits. - Faith Dunmort, Barrow Wisdom Coven #WitchSky

For this then is witch-walking: to step into conversation into the spirits of the land; to step out and gather feral magics. To walk and to move among nature's gifted enchantments. There is no path we may take that is without learning. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

For the salt hag's shore is full of flotsam omens, tidal thresholds. It is crowded with wind-blown lessons teaching while not every ever storm can be turned, all storms can be faced. In each moment, transformation. In each moment, magic. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

You will call it wild fancy, but I believe there are spots in the wood that even the trees know are monstrous. Places not tainted by human rituals, but the cicatrix of something much older. Places whose black bones scratch not only at the sky, but at the souls of all those passing – #CLNolan

For I am a witch, the world is my temple. Every half-flooded path offers me puddle-peeping, offers me scyring mirrors better than any glass. Every wooded walk a movement into wild mysteries. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981 #WitchSky

The measles outbreak in Texas is reminding me of the public letter Roald Dahl wrote about losing his daughter to measles in 1962, just before the vaccine was publicly available.

Her NIbs the Parrot is oddly interested in this movie. It must be the kissing, because there are no birds or dinosaurs. #CineJanes

It's defiitely B for me. I was just thinking that this kind of movie was the thing guys liked to watch in the '80s because if Al Pacino could be with a hot woman like that, maybe they had a shot themselves. #CineJanes

Today in 399 BC, Socrates was sentenced to death for encouraging people to think. Why? Authoritarian regimes thrive with uneducated population lacking critical thinking skills. Authoritarians target academia, media, educated and then women, essentially all that they wish to prevent or control.

I want to see a mutant #parrot monster #movie. Yeah, I know the Giant Claw is a googly-eyed antimatter bird from outer space, but 1) it's not a parrot, and 2) it's freaking ridiculous. I'm thinking Rodan from King of the Monsters munching on bird poachers. Her Nibs the Parrot loves Rodan. Go figure.

Answer is "Yes." My two monsters carry their pookies (named after Garfield's teddy bear) around and love on them, drop them in their water, and chew them. When I fish all the pookies out that they've lost under the stove, the cat-pookie reunion is like Christmas. (BTW your cats are adorable.)
