If the devil went down to Georgia, he must live somewhere north of there, and country singers like singing about selling their souls to him, so it only seems logical that the devil resides somewhere in Nashville.
every time i listen to maneater by timbaland and nelly furtado, i think about how they got so scared by the beat in the studio that they didn’t work on it for months because they thought they were summoning the devil
@balefulrays@witchkingcoop@dear_mortal My experience w transing has felt super initiatory, complete with all kinds of strange occult experiences in the process. I’m turning a corner right now that seems like I might be ditching the hormones. It would be a tall glass of water to hear an experience to compare to!
Making art now feels like entering a tiny boat race at the edge of a starving whirlpool. Not in a self pitying way….but in a yearning to work with the materials that might be made out of my dead body kind of way. If that makes sense?
Why is trauma praised as formative when it comes to artistic or entrepreneurial identities, but invaliding when it influences sexual identity, gender expression, spiritual awareness etc. ?
What’s everyone going to do when they realize they haven’t been talking to ‘me’ after all these years…. but the dweller on the threshold of who I once was & who I will become 😲
@RomanCovzArtz Yea I mean if we’re gonna get all chaos theory about it, the unpredictably of complex systems is still super sensitive to initial conditions i.e. we’re still on the hook for setting up those good vibes yo.
Has a group ever existed that really focused techniques of media manipulation to the aim of just making people feel good? Subliminally smacking peoples flickering wonder receptors?
Rehydrating dried up enchantment sacks?
Anything like that??
@RomanCovzArtz But I’m curious if any meaningful effort has been made to use blatantly manipulative / sorcerous / “social engineery” tech to the end of simply making people feel a sense of agency or something as opposed to puncturing a “whatever you’re offering” sized hole in someone
@RomanCovzArtz Totally. I suppose I’m trying to zoom in on some anomaly swimming upstream of dopamine traps. Maybe it’s redundant as far as effectiveness of just making good art.
