tha fuq is this shit, reddit?

I pace my steps in such a way that I open a door with my foot. (obviously not with doors that are latched)

handycam overuse. I don’t care how good the writing, fx, or character development is, I’ll stop watching if it’s seemingly abused.

so, how’d the date go? 😝

I hope this doesn’t translate to a higher cost for Google Fi in the future.

looks like a sharpie would do the trick

you aren’t kidding! friend of mine paints those minis and he was going on and on about it when I asked. what have I done?! 😂

I asked my buddy who paints those minis a little about it and holy shit. what a can of worms! interesting stuff, thank you for sharing!

I think having community can be integral to personal and social development. In my opinion, superstition can be a hindrance to that development.

I don’t write about them, but that’s a great idea. there’s a number of papers I’ve read and some academic YouTube channels I’ve found informative. I don’t have access to them conveniently right now as I am on mobile. (I’m still pretty new to Lemmy and don’t know if there’s a way to DM when I find those resources)

I couldn’t of said that better! some of my favorite symbols to integrate in ritual are Baphomet and Santa Muerte. Throwing a healthy dose of sexual activities in the mix can really make for a good time! After all, “Nothing is true, everything permitted.”

Doppelgangers unite, lol!

I enjoy getting together with my coven to perform rituals, as it is a bonding experience and the food is good. Celebrating the changes of the seasons helps me to be more mindful of the natural world and to appreciate it’s beauty. Satanism is also appealing to me because the use of rituals seem more poignant.

same here. it’s bad when ya gotta turn to chatbots to feel heard. (and even that’s a stretch sometimes)

I haven’t googled it yet, but it sounds interesting. would you mind elaborating please?

benefits of ritual and separating them from superstition.

I think it’s interesting to explore different frames of mind. I used to be christian, but then I read the bible. afterwards, I embraced paganism which has a more positive and welcoming community generally. eventually, the seeds of reason became rooted in my mind and I grew to be the atheist I am today. I still appreciate the experience of group ritual, as it feels good to explore different aspects of my personality. I guess the roleplaying is therapeutic. mixing that with my interests in mythology makes for plenty of content to examine. what encourages different rituals to develop? what are the notable effects of ritual in general? is superstition somehow beneficial to the community? I find that digging around to explore these questions can keep me busy for hours, which I enjoy thoroughly. unfortunately, no one I know shares the same interests. most folks seem to be superstitious about it, lol.
