I should probably post again my theurgic incantation for heracles
I found this french comic that is one of the first modern takes on herakles that gets him; makes him more of a brute & waylays ways with magic & his friendliness with the goddesses but it got his affect. it turned Omphale into this lovely vignette that evokes Shamhat & Enkidu

So went to bfast with my dad the other day & in the to & fro of conversation I remarked how peculiar it was that id learned what Zurvanism was before age ten.

My dad agreed & proceeded to say "it's not just nurture, sometimes the child seems interested in only a few things so you give them more..."

Well this sucks.
Max miller from tasting history outright lying to the audience in shilling out those beef tallow chips that also had LegalEagle parroting BofKen Jr nonsense.

& a stupidly obvious lie. You cannot not nixtamalized the maize if you want to make tortilla chips.

I could not for the life of me remember the name of no. 2 of Scientology (solved no need to correct). There was Lafayette & then... best I could come up was Miskatonic.
& like...
What if Miskatonic were to Scientology what BYU is to LDS?

Huh so part of the WHY for Herakles's first labor being the Nemean Lion is that the Lion with its divine claws & pelt will destroy the armaments Alcides used to gain reknown & with which he did evil.

So like... the sort of lamp imagined for Aladdin's lamp can't have been the bowl & stem type Disney pitched right? It must have been the amphora-like mosque-lamp

Like these

So with how much the Arthurian Relics change, heck with the mutability in form & number of many relics, it'd be neat in a story to have the monks checking in on their abbey's relics, taking note of what has happened with them.

So like... he's forcing the revealing of imperial decay; he is driving allies away & trashing the mechanisms of strength projecting.

Like he HAS to be a saboteur, right? Like I cannot believe a man is so venal so avaricious so perverse that he would be doing this shit unintentionally.

With his self-serving "progressivism" & rapacious sensual appetites... Alex Karp strikes me as something of a dybbuk. A man whose ideas of community breed his isolation, who sees the destruction of human lives as currency, which works against the repair of the world & refuses accountability

so i was thinking about that movie, obsession, and how erotic charms of antiquity are, while absolutely no less coercive and violating than Bear's enchantment, vastly more pragmatic. The ancient spellmonger knew that no few clients would wish to undo the magic.

Now to make the salve of myrrh lilies & cinnamon.

This weekend has shown... well what I hope is an end to the (I think) contemptible project of "dirtbag leftism" or "dark woke" or however one wants to characterize the "what if horseshoe were real" political posturing

I am shocked at how ...
Like people sometimes coming to terms with betrayal needs to be a private thing which you grapple with by yourself & not out in public .
