"Jonathan Pollard, a former US navy intelligence analyst jailed for 30 years for spying for #Israel, has said he will stand for #election to the #Knesset this year on a platform of #ethnic #cleansing. Speaking [on] #television, Pollard said: 'I personally prefer the forcible #removal of all current #residents of #Gaza, & the #annexation of Gaza & its #repopulation by us.'"

A quotation from Eric Hoffer

Suffering cleanses only when it is free of resentment. Wholehearted contempt for our tormentors safeguards our soul from the mutilations of bitterness and hatred.

Eric Hoffer (1902-1983) American writer, philosopher, longshoreman
Passionate State of Mind, Aphorism 263 (1955)

What has no place with me now, be gone.
What is finished, be finished.
What is mine to carry, stay with me.

“A History of Deception: #US-Israeli #Pacts and the Gaza Proposal”

“The history of Zionism is [..] one of #deception. This assertion is critically relevant today, as it contextualizes the so-called ‘#Trump #Gaza #proposal,’ which appears to be little more than a veiled strategy to defeat the Palestinians & facilitate the #ethnic #cleansing of [..] Gaza’s population”

#Press #Israel #Genocide

For the change of seasons, I used to do all relevant #spellwork, #cleansing, decor, card pulls, and other seasonal #rituals in one day during the Solstices or Equinoxes. I've realized that's not really the move given my #AuDHD brain lol. So lately I'm slowly doing some cool tasks leading up to the #Fall #Equinox.

This is also my first change of season since deciding to do semi-regular screen breaks/dopamine detoxes, and I'm looking forward to it! I took my first ever intentional detox back in July, and holy shit, I felt so calm during it. Going forward, I'm planning on doing them for 5-7 days during Solstices and Equinoxes, so my first seasonal detox is coming up this Monday. I get overstimulated easily, so I'm hoping that disconnecting from so much stimuli semi-regularly is enough to keep me regulated. I'm thinking about adding a short 2-3 day social media break mid-way through seasons too if I need it.

Cleansing
2025 Europe reissue

Round 2 of Prong.

Cleansing will always be my favorite Prong album.

I skipped school the morning it came out and walked to my local Good Vibrations to buy it on cassette.

I remember the first time I heard “Snap Your Fingers, Snap Your Neck”. I thought “Holy fucking shit! That song is AWESOME!”
To this day, it’s one of my favorite songs of that entire decade.

It took me a good couple days to get past the first side of that tape. The first four songs of Cleansing are like a glorious sledgehammer. They’re so damn good!

And again, I can’t stress how incredible these MOV reissues are, both in how they sound AND look, including beautiful linen laminate covers.

Hands down my favorite reissues of the year.

Humanitarian city would be concentration camp for Palestinians, says former Israeli PM

"Humanitarian city” Israel’s has proposed on ruins of #Rafah would be a concentration camp, forcing #Palestinians inside would be #ethnic #cleansing, Israel’s former prime minister Ehud #Olmert said

“It is a #ConcentrationCamp. I am sorry,” he said

Once inside, Palestinians are not allowed to leave

Blooming into Balance: Celebrating Ostara 2025

The air is changing. A gentle warmth replaces the winter’s chill, and the world awakens with a vibrant burst of life. Ostara, the Spring Equinox, is upon us! This Pagan Sabbat marks the moment when day and night are of equal length, a perfect balance before the sun’s power begins to dominate. In 2025, we’ll be celebrating Ostara on Thursday, March 20th.

Ostara is a time of renewal, rebirth, and growth. It’s a celebration of the Goddess Ostara (or Eostre), associated with dawn, spring, and fertility, and a welcoming of the returning sun. Let’s delve into how you can celebrate this vibrant Sabbat, whether you’re a solitary practitioner or part of a coven.

______________________________

Ostara whispers of fresh starts and the quiet strength of budding life. It’s a time to turn inward, to examine the seeds of your own dreams, and gently coax them into bloom. Whether you find solace in solitary reflection or joy in shared celebration, take this moment to truly connect with the earth’s awakening. Listen to the birdsong, feel the sun’s gentle warmth, and let the promise of spring fill your heart. Plant your intentions with care, nurture them with kindness, and watch as your own unique potential unfolds. May your Ostara be filled with personal growth, renewed hope, and the blossoming of your truest self. Happy Ostara!

🌈 Ostara Ritual for Renewal

The Seed of Potential: An Ostara Ritual for Renewal

Choose a space where you feel connected to nature, whether it’s outdoors or a designated sacred space indoors.

Welcome, fellow seekers, to the vibrant dawn of Ostara. As the Earth awakens from its winter slumber, we too are called to embrace renewal and growth. This ritual is designed to honor the Spring Equinox, the moment of perfect balance, and to plant the seeds of our own potential.

__________________________

Preparation

🌈 Timing:

Perform this ritual on the Spring Equinox, ideally at dawn or during the day when the sun is high.

 🌈 Location:

Choose a space where you feel connected to nature, whether it’s outdoors or a designated sacred space indoors

 🌈 Altar:

Set up your Ostara altar with the correspondences mentioned in the previous blog. Include a small pot of soil, seeds (representing your intentions), and a bowl of fresh spring water.

 🌈 Tools:

You will need candles (pastel colors), incense (floral or fresh scents), and a representation of the Goddess Ostara (or your chosen spring deity).

____________________________

⭐ The Ritual ⭐

 🌈 Casting the Circle:

If you typically cast a circle, do so now, invoking the elements and guardians.

 🌈 Invocation:

Light your candles and incense. Stand before your altar and say:

   “Ostara, Goddess of Dawn and Spring, we welcome your light. The Earth awakens, and so do we. We gather here, at the point of perfect balance, to honor the return of life and the blooming of potential.”

 🌈 Honoring the Equinox:

Take a moment to feel the balance of light and dark. Close your eyes and visualize the sun rising, bringing warmth and vitality to the Earth. Say:

   “Day and night are equal, a moment of perfect harmony. We honor the balance within and without, the dance of light and shadow, and the promise of growth.”

 🌈 Planting the Seeds of Intention:

Take the pot of soil and the seeds. As you hold the seeds, visualize your intentions for the coming season. What do you wish to cultivate in your life? Speak your intentions aloud, infusing the seeds with your energy.

   “These seeds represent the potential within me. I plant them with intention, nurturing my dreams and aspirations. May they grow strong and vibrant, bringing forth the fruits of my labor.”

   Plant the seeds in the soil.

 🌈 Blessing the Seeds and Water:

Hold the bowl of spring water over the planted seeds. Say:

   “Water of life, nourish these seeds of intention. May they be blessed with growth, vitality, and abundance.”

   Sprinkle the water over the soil.

 🌈 Meditation and Visualization:

Sit or stand comfortably. Close your eyes and visualize your intentions taking root and flourishing. See them growing into vibrant manifestations of your desires. Feel the warmth of the sun and the gentle breeze of spring.

 🌈 Offering to Ostara:

Offer a small gift to Ostara, such as flowers, a decorated egg, or a poem. Say:

   “Ostara, we thank you for the gifts of spring. We offer our gratitude and respect, and we celebrate the renewal of life.”

 🌈 Grounding:

Take a few deep breaths, grounding yourself in the present moment. Feel the connection to the Earth and the energy of spring.

 🌈 Releasing the Circle:

 If you cast a circle, release it now, thanking the elements and guardians.

 🌈 Closing:

Extinguish the candles and incense. Place the pot of seeds in a sunny location and water them regularly, nurturing your intentions as they grow.

🌈 Reflection:

After the ritual, take some time to journal about your experience. Reflect on your intentions and how you plan to nurture them throughout the spring and summer. This ritual is a powerful way to connect with the energies of Ostara and to embrace the potential for growth within yourself. May your spring be filled with joy, abundance, and renewal.

What is the #UNO - #United #Nations #Organisation still doing in a #country #US #USA that is officially calling , via its #president @POTUS , to an #etnic #cleansing ? 🤔

#Wikipedia definition of an #etnic #cleansing :

" direct #removal such as deportation or population transfer, it also includes indirect methods aimed at forced migration by #coercing the victim #group to #flee and #preventing its #return "

Donald Trump has long made clear that he admires Russian strongman Vladimir #Putin,

including calling his invasion of Ukraine ♦️“genius” and “savvy.”

Remarks he made Monday to the National Guard Association in Detroit demonstrate just how worried he is that Ukrainian efforts to resist Putin’s aggression might be successful.

Musing on Russia’s war against Ukraine,
Trump expressed dismay that Russia

— which escalated a war it initially started a decade ago by launching an unprovoked full-scale assault in February 2022

— has now itself been invaded by Ukrainian forces.

Trump’s pro-dictator enthusiasms are likely to be damaging far beyond Europe.

For example, Trump
— who has again often praised China’s President #Xi
— has hedged on whether he would defend #Taiwan,
arguing (as with NATO) that Taiwan should pay the US for military support.

Along the same lines,
Trump in his first term abandoned Obama-era anti-corruption and pro-democracy efforts in #Guatemala.

In 2023, after Guatemalans rallied against their corrupt, evangelical right-wing Christian oligarchy
and elected reform president Bernardo Arévalo,

Biden launched a major effort to back Arévalo and prevent a coup.

Continued US support is critical, according to journalist Jody García.

Given Trump’s past record and his anti-democracy bent,
it seems likely that if he wins, Guatemalan democracy will lose.

Trump’s disdain for democracy and for diplomacy would likely also worsen the already nightmarish situation in #Gaza.

Since the horrific Hamas attack on Israel on 10/7, Biden has supplied billions in weapons to Israel, while urging the far right government of Benjamin Netanyahu to take care to avoid civilian casualties. Israel has instead killed tens of thousands of civilians.

This is not a successful humanitarian policy, to put it mildly.

Trump’s recommendation, though, is to call for even harsher measures.

During his debate with Biden in June, Trump called Biden a “bad Palestinian” and said that Biden should
♦️ “let Israel finish the job.”

Given the terrifying level of devastation Israel has already inflicted, “finish the job” in this context appears to be an outright call for destruction.

(In related news, Jared Kushner said during a recent interview that “Gaza’s waterfront property could be very valuable.”)

Trump likes strongman solutions, up to and including #mass #violence and #ethnic #cleansing.

Rather than leading to any sort of peace, this push for more extreme violence will only enflame the region,
potentially precipitating a dreaded Israel/Hezbollah #war which could involve #Iran.

Such a widening of the conflict was only narrowly avoided this week.
