As a Witch & Polytheist, I am not really up on all the details of some of these new fangled religions... but this new guy the Christians have seems to be kind of ok?

Tweet by Pope Leo XIV
"The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus we revealing their own blindness and cruelty."

#Witchsky Note from my grimoire...

Image Description:
Against a parchment background with dark brown drawings of stylized curling vines along the left side & bottom of the page, words reading "When one engages fully & sincerely in the practices of magic, one is forced to learn about oneself. Our best & our worst. As we learn about ourselves, we are developing our intuition & instincts, we learn to see & interact with the world differently, more effectively.
It is not just about self-knowledge, or self-improvement; it changes how we carry ourselves, it changes how we interact with others & the world around us.
It opens our eyes to new possibilities & ideas.
To paraphrase a very wise author; humans need magic to be human, to be the place where the falling angel meets the rising ape. The fact that it also appears to have effects on the world around us, all so often for the better, is the merest of side effects of the journey."

All too many of the Democratic establishment could use a remedial education in the history of their own party!

One of the many excellent quotes from the FDR memorial in Washington DC. "We must scrupulously guard the civil rights and civil liberties of all citizens, whatever their background. We must remember that any oppression, any injustice, any hatred, is a wedge designed to attack our civilization."

Friends, made a poster to remind folks of the upcoming peaceful demonstrations. Hopefully the numbers will continue to grow & inspire some hope, build some community & solidarity, & build some momentum towards positive change. goodtroubleliveson.org

Informational Poster in muted colors with a picture of the late John Lewis, US Congressman & Civil Rights leader, several blocks of text, and a QR Code in lower right corner. The title reads “Good Trouble Lives On”. Below this in quotation marks "Young people can understand, and must understand, that we had success, we had failures, but we never gave up. We never gave in. We never became bitter. We didn't hate. We continued to press on. And that's what we're saying: There are some ups, there are some downs, and when you're not down, you must have the capacity and the ability to get up and keep going." Below this in a different style of text reads “Good Trouble Lives On is a national day of action to respond to the attacks on our civil and human rights by the Trump administration. Together, we’ll remind them that in America, the power lies with the people. Coined by civil rights leader Congressman John Lewis, "Good Trouble" is the action of coming together to take peaceful, non-violent action to challenge injustice and create meaningful change.The civil rights leaders of the past have shown us the power of collective action. That’s why on July 17, five years since the passing of Congressman John Lewis, communities across the country will take to the streets, courthouses, and community spaces to carry forward his fight for justice, voting rights, and dignity for all.” Below this, in quotation marks, text reads "If you see something that is not right, not fair, not just, you have a moral obligation to do something about it."

🧵 Note: for this entry I am screenshotting what I believe (for a couple of reasons) to be a key quote from the Deseret News reporting, due to character limit. screenshotted as of 9:40 am 6/17/2025 www.deseret.com/utah/2025/06...

Screenshot of highlighted quote from Deseret News coverage of the event (used due to character limit considerations) "Two other armed individuals wearing high-visibility vests who were “possibly part of the event’s peacekeeping team” were also detained initially, Redd said.

“Based on early witness statements, these men saw Gamboa separate from the crowd during the march and move behind a wall, where they noticed him pull out a rifle and begin manipulating it. Gamboa was then confronted by these two men. Witnesses say Gamboa raised the weapon in a firing position and began running toward the crowd. One of the individuals fired three rounds, striking Gamboa and tragically striking the man who later died,” Redd said, adding that Gamboa never fired a shot.

According to a police booking affidavit, the peacekeepers called out to Gamboa to drop his weapon after drawing their own."

You might find encouragement then in some of the AP's coverage in this article (& elsewhere), apnews.com/article/no-k... I find the word choice, sentence order, & story structure a hopefule sign, they ended their city by city wrap up with Portland.

"Confrontations were isolated. But police in Los Angeles, where protests over federal immigration enforcement raids erupted a week earlier and sparked demonstrations across the country, used tear gas and crowd-control munitions to clear out protesters after the formal event ended. Officers in Portland also fired tear gas and projectiles to disperse a crowd that protested in front of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement building well into the evening."

"Portland
Earlier in the day, thousands of protesters lined the streets in downtown Portland for several blocks, waving signs as passing cars honked in support. They marched around the city draped in American flags to the beat of drums and music.

By late afternoon, a small group of demonstrators amassed across the river to protest in front of an ICE office where three people were arrested Wednesday night after starting a small fire against the building, police said."

Federal immigration officers fired tear gas, flash bangs and rubber bullets in an effort to clear out the remaining protesters in the evening. Some protesters threw water bottles back and tended to each other’s wounds. The police department wrote on X that the event was declared a riot."

So I've added another flier to this collection...

Flier, black text against white background. Behind the texts a pale grey line drawing of the Statue of Liberty. Below a cursive font text “We the People of the United States, in Order to form a more perfect Union, establish Justice, insure domestic Tranquility, provide for the common defence, promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our Posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America.” Below this in a plain font the statement “Active Duty military or National Guard? Being ordered to violate someone’s Constitutional rights? The GI Rights Hotline Call:1.877.447.4487 girightshotline.org” Along the sides of the flier smaller printing has phone # and website, separated by dotted lines; intended to be cut along the lines before posting flier. Below this flyer reads “AMENDMENT XIV
Section 1.

No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.

I've seen a lot of online posts informing Active Duty US military & National Guard members that if they have been ordered to violate someone's Constitutional rights that they can reach out to the GI Rights Hotline for advice of their legal rights. Life also happens offline, so I made these.

Happy Pride

A black & white photograph of Harvey Milk, with a his words beside him in black text outlined in yellow. "And you have to give them hope. Hope for a better world, hope for a better tomorrow, hope for a better place to come to if the pressures at home are too great. Hope that all will be all right. Without hope, not only gays, but the blacks, the seniors, the handicapped, the us'es, the us'es will give up."
