Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.

They would change their tune because they'd think you were mentally ill to the point where it's dangerous.

In fairness the denial to acknowledge or entertain such a request does not provide proof of the doubt of one's words, merely a non-desire to participate.

Yeah, I'm not just handing over a genetic sample.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 7 months ago

I might. Under the right circumstances. Be willing to part with some sperm.

Hair only has DNA if you pull out the root too.

They can pull a genetic sample from a water glass you used in a restaurant, from your car’s steering wheel, from your clothing…

We shed DNA all the time and everywhere.

I've had a 'witch' cut a bit of my hair off and tell me she's gonna curse me. That was 15 years ago, still nothing.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago (1 children)

Really? You can look at the last 15 years of your life and you don't feel cursed?

Couldn't be me. Depression is a fuck.

Yeah, it's this person! They are the ones that cause all of this to happen! *gestures generally*

In all fairness, it’s a gross ask.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 months ago

I don’t believe in any magical thinking, but if you want some of my hair, you can have a pube. That’s equally gross for both of us.

If they don't believe in the Fourth amendment, ask for their bank statement

As a person with receding hairline, screw this

[–] Lemminary 7 points 7 months ago

No, it's just gross

I'm a nurse. We are completely rational, evidence-based, science oriented.

Also, had a patient on our critical care unit overnight waiting on a pacemaker, heart rate in the 30s with frequent pauses where it just didn't beat at all. Hospital doctor comes in to check on patient (who was already sent down to get the pacer) and notices the vial of atropine taped to the patient's door jamb.

Hospital doctor asks me about it, and with a straight face complete sincerity, I reply, "To ward off evil spirits."

The witchy ways endure.

If someone does believe in witchcraft, I am asking for notes, spellbooks, etc. That you may retain. I will pay for the original or any duplication costs if you don't want to part with it.

I am especially interested in any notes, materials, books, Journals, grimoires, etc. For anyone with a diagnosed or undiagnosed mental disorder.

Completely serious, PM me if your interested. I prefer original copies if you can't get good scans or duplications. Am willing to pay a fair price if original materials are necessary.

*Must be comfortable with stating some limited background information about yourself.

I'm autistic. If you you're paying and interested in magic, I'd be happy to teach you everything I know about the gathering.

I'm full of mental disorders; I'd be happy to mail someone my ramblings for cash haha. I don't believe in witchcraft but I did used to have paranoia and some hallucinations (I guess I'm recovered from that?) and I feel like people should be studying me, not about that necessarily, but I have a bunch of complex ideas I can't get anyone to understand.
