The correlation w me doing magic and me getting weird symptoms of ick is pretty close to 1:1. I do wonder who else gets the "universe seems to be pushing back" feeling?
I know what skeptics will say:
- Correlation doesn't equal causation (true)
- Maybe u sense ick and start magic (possible)
- It could be physical, you switched workouts (true)
- It is in ur head (literally tbh, my jaw is fked a little lol)I reply:
True, but if u throw a ball 100x and it comes back down, gravity prob ur cause right?
I consider this a lot. I wonder. But also writing, when I decide to write I get weird in my hands.
- Defffffs true. But for heavy / strain, this is light. More cardio butttttt more shoulder stuffs so... maybe?
- Hn yesh but I can't exactly see thru if it us my own delusion. Can I?

Part 2/2
I waited until sunrise and looked under the bed.
Nothing.
But the ceiling above me was now a wooden floor, stained with blood.
Another message arrived:
You’re upstairs now.

Qualms of Punctual Reincarnation
Today is the last day in our eleven-day celebration of the Eleven Monsters Holiday. We hope you enjoyed our retreat into the ancient hinterland of Geranium Lake Properties. Today is also the opening day of Ghost Month. If you wish, you can still download and print this image of Tilkeedu from last year's observance of an Inultaru tradition for Ghost Eve. Or you might want to refresh your memory about the concept of “common wrongness” from the Kurrotamohl Tea-drinkers.https://vraic.wordpress.com/2026/08/13/qualms-of-punctual-reincarnation/

#FediCoven 2026 Q1 - For those who have a form of divination in their practice, does this indicate to you that the universe is predestined/deterministic?
Nnnno.
I believe in a potentially infinite universe of possibilities, so tbh I view divination as seeing possible paths / outcomes, some more probable than others. Divination is more like... seeing what will prob happen if u let stuffs continue as they are.
I think that mostly, ppl do passive divination. "What will happen with the stuffs" and they accept. Active divination more intervention-ish? Like, u do it to try to shift things.
And yesh, I think u can.
So, I'm a little bit of a precog. I can't control it and I don't even always know that I'm doing it, but I've had ppl ( @VulpineDruid ) catch it BC she was super confused wtf I was talking abt... until it happened.
The weirdly is that by pointing it out, the original conversation we had about the thing that hadn't happened, didn't happen, but the thing did. So tho the "future" was our conversation, and the event, we changed the future by not having the convo as part of it.
So... no predestiny!

Homage and Memory
Today we making the penultimate (yep I love that word way too much) post in our celebration of the Eleven Monsters Holiday. Our theme for this Geranium Lake Properties retrospective has been "The Red Beast", a theme chosen with no input from the Ta Gosan Jacin. I do not expect or even hope they are aware of our little tribute for 2026. -

The Collapse of an Empire
"The collapse of an empire is the collapse of an illusion." This is a well-known proverb among the Inultaru, a threadbare and cobwebby platitude that jackalopes learn as children, oft-repeated by both tedious philosophers and provocative firebrands. The demalion behind the proverb is obscure. Elusive. Volatile. Protean. He is Ulkennaskio, called Zihlmissen by the jackalopes of the Second House, and Surtayo by the Moss Folk.
