Genii: You have released me from the bottle and in return I will answer *any* question you ask me. All human knowledge is yours!
Aladdin: Will your answers be correct?
Genii: Well now you’re just being picky.
Aladdin: Will your answers be correct?
Genii: Well now you’re just being picky.

For even the solitary witch never truly walks alone. She may be rarely seen at those guerrilla covens of extreme need, but she travels with the spirits of the land. Her constant companions are genii locorum – whispering, protecting and teaching as she navigate her way. – #EmilyCBanting #WitchSky

Little gods in the grass isn't a new thing. Their names may change, but not their purposes. Field-blessers. Drought defeaters. Stone homes for genii locorum. Prayer amplifiers against every dread a farmer may face. – Dr. M. Benn #FolkloreSunday

🧵 Leonardo da Vinci (1452-1519) is considered one of the greatest genii in history. He was a key Renaissance artist, an inventor, architect, scientist & polymath. Some of his work is universally famous, even though he painted so few pictures [1]

Astronomical #winter starts today. It's the shortest day of the year in terms of daylight with the sun starting to set later each day until Summer Solstice.
The mosaic depicts the dancing Genii (protective spirits) of the four seasons. The Genius of winter is wrapped in a heavy cloak.🧵1/2

Hooklanders talk about spritfel – the innate ability to know which tree is home to a Wood Sprite, to know exactly where in the landscape genii locorum dwell. They talk of it as navigation, as a form of self-protection. To be without spritfel is a terrible thing. – #MattAdams #WOTD

The witch's path is never empty. Even in those places other people label desolate, she walk with spirits, walks with genii locorum. Her navigation is conversation with all her dead sisters, all who travelled this way before. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981 #WitchSky

Relief from Roman Cirencester (Corinium) depicting three Genii Cucullati and a seated mother goddess. The relief was found at the site of the Police Station in Cirencester, and is now part of the collections at The Corinium Museum. 📸 My own. #ReliefWednesday #RomanBritain

Trump says presidents 'should not have learning disabilities.' Not really an issue, as through the centuries, many of the world's most productive genii have. But having a demented, narcissistic psychopath, who never developed into a fully mature adult as president - that's a huge fucking problem.

Let me expand upon this 🔽 and say something about AIs, mathematics, proofs, conjectures, problem-solving, goalposts, paperclips, genii and, more importantly, Campbell/Goodhart's law. 🧵⤵️ •1/38
… it turns out that, as LLMs have shown us, you can solve problems without developing any interesting math or teaching us much of worth, so the “problem solving” criterion was wrong all along (or only applicable for humans). Now this is embarrassing because it looks like the goalposts are moving. …

The witch has her places of green communion. The witch has her favourite talking trees. She does not seek to warp the environment to her will, merely to find her place within its ecosystem of feral magics and genii locorum. To be part of it is enough. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

if a genii came to give me three wishes i would ask only that this guy be sent back in time or otherwise be forced to content with reality
Trump: "The Civil War -- it always seemed to me maybe that could've been solved without losing 600,000 plus people."

Part of witchcraft and witchgraft is a charting of spirits. Tutelary deities, genii locorum – the witch walks to make a map of where they can be found. The witch walks to make a connection with them. For all magic is rooted in relationships. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky

The witch knows where the genii locorum dwell. She knows their names. More importantly, when in conversation with them, she understands to listen more than she speaks. The witch that does not listen to the land is turning her back on wild wisdom. – #EmilyCBanting, 1981 #WitchSky

The witch walking is a witch having a conversation with the land. A chart of the paths she takes is telling of genii locorum, places where the ghost soil speaks loudest. Her feet scuff up stories, her feet scuff up spirits. Each navigation is sorcery. – #EmilyCBanting, 1982 #WitchSky
