My heart has been breaking thinking of people separated tonight. We're protesting the rest of this week, every night.

ICE showed up in my work town yesterday.

It's terrifying and I'm a CIS white woman.

People have been organizing outside of schools all week to document what's going on.

They swept through our southside where many Mexican families live and work.

I'm not sure what this is but it's not homesickness, or missing family, or anything like that.

It's like this primal urge.

Has anyone else ever experienced this?

I've wondered if it's what is going on in the US or maybe because I'm getting older? Not sure.

I've had this strange thing going on the past year or so.

I've had this SERIOUS pull every time I go back to Kentucky. (I'm only like 30 minutes away but don't live there anymore. Where I grew up and where my family's at is between 1hr and 1 hr 45 minutes, depending on which family I'm visiting.

But this is a strange pull to just go off in the woods. The woods in KY are similar but not exactly like the woods where I live now.

I'm in the Bible belt so most of them here are pretty far out there.

I couldn't care less what someone believes so long as it isn't forced on anyone else or hurts innocent people.

@jacklaridian

I don't believe in gods in the same way that many do. I don't see an all-powerful, all-knowing presence like the Christian god.

I also don't relate to gods who have humanesque lives like mythological stories.

But I do feel some old primal forces when I'm out in the woods. Generally one every so often. I felt one over in Vigo County, Indiana a couple of times. I'll have to write about that some day. It was a strange pull. Maybe those are gods? Not sure.

@jacklaridian

I'm not a scholar on Buddhism, which seems to be the likely origin of tulpas, but I am quite familiar with the western occult thought-form of tulpas, which is, yes, through either serious meditation or a series of magic castings a tulpa can be created.

It can have a degree of will and independent thought, too.

That's what intrigues me so much. Similar to the Jewish Golem, they can become violent, aggressive....

@jacklaridian

I feel there are some really old, unexplainable forces (especially feel these in the woods and around large rivers) that might have been considered gods at some point but maybe are more primal natural forces/spirits.

I do agree that many deities are the creations of people, but think those creations can take a shape of their own when so many believe in them (like tulpas).

I have a question.

Just for us to talk amongst ourselves.

I don't use deities in my practice (not saying I don't believe in them).

So my question is do you feel gods become weaker or maybe disappear if they aren't directly worked with for an extended period of time?

If so, do you think they can be "brought back" so to speak, if people begin working with them again.

If so, should we be asking for gods to have a sit down with the Christian god?

Have you watched the Kathleen Hanna documentary on youtube?

The Punk Singer

@jacklaridian

I totally agree.

PS Sleater-Kinney is one of my favs. ❤️

@jacklaridian

Mine, too.

Jennifer Finch sells gear to my hub at his music store and she's my favorite.

I know they didn't join in the Riot Grrrl scene but their music definitely fit the cause.

Riot Grrrl Manifesto with alt text.

All spelling and grammatical errors are intentionally left. It's how they wrote and I want to preserve it as is.

@jacklaridian

I write half cursive / half print. Some letters I like to look cursive and others I don't.

I really hate the cursive X, both small and large.

I can't find anything to keep my interest, listening/watching wise.

I get fifteen minutes into a show and I'm like, I just can't with this.

It's all me, not the shows/podcasts.

I think my brain just wants to check out, but also wants to be comforted.

Last night, I spent 20 minutes watching 1980s teachers teach you how to write in cursive.

For any of you who need this also.

I'm all for things being dismantled to take back our country. It needs some serious work (health care, poverty, systemic racism, among others) but I'm ready to fight for it.

If anyone has any one page mini zines about the resistance, Christofascism, Riot Grrrls or hexing our enemies, I'll print them and distribute next Saturday at the 50501 Protest in Evansville, Indiana.

All files will stay original, I just want to have a ton to pass out.

Send them my way. I'll post pics of your zine at our resistance protest!
