Embarrass herself by telling people she believes in witchcraft.

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 24 points 6 days ago (19 children)

As if its any worse than the alternatives

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 37 points 6 days ago (9 children)

You say that as if you HAVE to believe in magic.

[–] UltraGiGaGigantic@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 day ago

Its not magic, its rune smithing!

[–] ThunderChunk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 21 points 6 days ago (2 children)

It's a lot more fun to believe in magic when you know it's not real than to actually believe in magic.

True. But it’s still silly.

I cast itchy retina on you.

[–] Cruxifux@feddit.nl 2 points 14 hours ago

Underrated reply. My eyes went dry immediately after I read this.

[–] ThunderChunk@lemmy.dbzer0.com 4 points 5 days ago (1 children)

FYI around the time you sent this I rubbed my eye, but forgot that I had cut jalapeños earlier...I do not like you

[–] RickyRigatoni@retrolemmy.com 3 points 5 days ago

It's definitely worse than not believing in magic

[–] A_Union_of_Kobolds@lemmy.world 6 points 5 days ago (7 children)

The only viable religion is worshiping the sun, since that actually exists.

I have said the exact same thing

people who do witchcraft are usually kind and interesting

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 39 points 5 days ago (1 children)

If I had to guess I'd say the friend is either boosting the transition because duh, or trying to fuck because why else would you not tell them what the spell is for? Unless there's some rule about spellcasting like for birthday wishes where it doesn't work if you tell

[–] Samdell@lemmy.eco.br 13 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Now you raise the interesting point as to whether birthday wishes are witchcraft

[–] Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 8 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

Depends on who you're asking, from experience all I can say conclusively is that Catholics would definitely say no, but I'm 100% sure there's at least one christian sect out there that would say yes and be entirely serious

Is that sect the JWs?

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 41 points 6 days ago (3 children)

Hmm if she had said "I'll pray for you" we all know what she would have been praying. So witches less shitty than Christians? Or do we need to ask more Christians exactly what they are praying for?

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 27 points 5 days ago (1 children)

"I'll pray for you" but it's a prayer to Lempo, god of fucking from Finnish mythology.

[–] ryedaft@sh.itjust.works 20 points 5 days ago (3 children)

Frey, brother of Freya, is usually also depicted with a big ol' dick. He's a fertility and agriculture god! Of course you want him to fuck your fields.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 20 points 5 days ago

Lempo isn't a fertility god, though. His areas are erotic love, sex, and sexual prowess. He is also known by the feminine name Lemmätär or Lemmetär (-tar and -tär being feminizing suffixes). It's not surprising that Christian revisionists turned him into one of the chief demons.

what are u doin step field

There is a large amount of the Queer community that practice witchcraft and other esoterica. It is often seen as a spiritual safe space for people outside of hetero-normative society.

[–] Jakeroxs@sh.itjust.works 15 points 5 days ago

Why leave irrationality to the monotheists

[–] froufox@lemmy.blahaj.zone 14 points 5 days ago

to smite all transphobes of course

Presenting male but identifying (mostly just not publicly out) as another gender

Usually a thing trans ppl do to avoid situations with family or because they live in a red state

[–] Taalnazi@lemmy.world 3 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Or just generally living in a not so good area. Not all places are the US (re: the red state thingy), and they also may use different colours for the same political affilation.

In my area we'd for example translate the Reps as brown (referring to brownshirts), and Dems as yellowish/light red.

[–] match@pawb.social 4 points 4 days ago

got the toggle set to boy

[–] Kolanaki@pawb.social 10 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Someone who is in boy mode.

[–] acockworkorange@mander.xyz 3 points 2 days ago

I read that as boymodder (my fault) and was like, someone into installing modifications in boys?!

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 30 points 5 days ago

She's going to cast a seduction spell on anon, obviously
