Spoopy Season Safety

It's medical misinfo season again!

Wait is that not true?

The people who need to worry about this already know they need to worry about this. The vast majority of medication (and the effects of said medication) take place in the liver, kidneys, etc. Charcoal only effects the stomach and intestines as is passes through your system. If you take medication hours before or after consuming charcoal, it will have none-to-negligible effect on your uptake of that drug. It's like how people say "don't take adhd meds with vitamin-c heavy drinks," like they are chemically correct, but the effects vary depending on things like time release, where the drug enters your bloodstream, how big your dosage is, how old yout OJ is. It's specific scenarios laid out as boilerplate reality that makes this misinfo. If you take your pill an hour or so before or after consuming charcoal, it will have no effect on the medicine. That's why medicinal charcoal for poisoning has to be administered immediately after suspected poisoning: it has to be able to reach the substance in your system before your intestines get to work on it.

I hope this is coherent. I am tired and have been writing all day.

Just to make something clear, Gaelic paganism (and folk practices) is not closed, you do not need any initiation and anyone telling you need "celtic" blood is just a racist. Anyone in the world from anywhere in the world can do it.

That doesn't mean you can pick and choose what words and figures you like from it, remove them from their original contexts, add nonsense information and claim it as fact (UPG should always be labeled as such especially if its in complete opposition to established lore). And then claim these terms and ideas actually have nothing to do with Ireland, The Isle of Mann and Highland Scotland. This is appropriation. Especially when this is all being spearheaded by English people in the 50s.

ladies and gentlemen, Phtalo Green

This is literally my favorite color. 😩 Smaragd green is another dark shade of green that I’m absolutely obsessed with.

This is just a post to say that I really love how the Jewish calendar gives a sense of rhythm to time that I didn't get from the Gregorian calendar. Shabbat coming every week, feeling it nearing, marking the seasons, the waxing and waning of the moon, and feeling how cyclical it is.

I just love the ritualization of time and feeling the moving of it, the turning of the earth and feeling how I've changed since the last time I was in the same place in time.

Sometimes I like to sit and experience the wild as it is. It is there where I am close to the gods. The gods are in the things which surround us and part of the process of the environment we live. It doesn't matter how urban or rural it is. It is there in which we can experience them and their presence. As the wind blows, the birds fly, the waters ripple, the earth smells. Just take it in.

yall realize you can criticize religion without like. making fun of people for having things that are sacred and holy to them right.

not to be that guy but theres a huge difference between "this religion and it's practitioners has aspects that warrant criticism" and "lmao look at them believing in things" . its one thing to call out the toxicity and spread of dangerous information in, as an example, pagan communities. it is an entirely separate thing to make fun of pagans for what they find sacred and important to their lives, even if it doesnt make sense to you.
