Remember: The Norse peoples regularly tossed bad kings into bogs for far less than CEOs and elected officials regularly get away with now.

When people blame anarchists for society's problems what they're really doing is trying to distract you from their role in causing those same problems. Most anarchists I've met are far more honorable than every single elected official combined. mic.com/p/how-black-an…

The tendency in Pagan practice towards separating the social and political from the spiritual is one that, I think, has fostered a lot of unhealthy dynamics. One cannot remove how you engage with the Powers from how this influences the rest of your life, including politics.

One aspect of Heathenry that needs a lot more love is ecstatic practice and altered states work. We know it's all over the place in the sagas, whether you're talking the berserkers or seidworkers, so why should we leave it out today? It only adds to the experience.

Remember this. Better than Trump is an exceedingly low bar that most week-old ham sandwiches could clear. That doesn't make those ham sandwiches exemplars of morality, sound models for political thinking, or any kind of guarantee against fascist resurgence. That part is on us.

As a signer of this letter all I can add is we must stand up for people fighting for justice now before the people Facebook enables with these actions start looking for more victims. This Red Scare could easily become a Satanic Panic if we don't act now. anarchistagency.com/commentary/sta…

Similar inroads have been made into Pagan and Heathen circles by the Q cult. So far, at least in Heathenry, the firewall being erected by anti-racist, inclusive groups has limited its spread. Hopefully, we can ensure it remains an affliction of the dying, decaying fascists.

Huh. It's almost as if all the intermarriage between Aesir, Vanir, and Jotnar was a reflection of lived experience and not simply myth. Oh and also the whole idea that the Norse peoples were even remotely obsessed with blood purity needs to go away now. sciencealert.com/giant-dna-anal…

Seeing as this book is firmly anti-fascist I also gladly support the #condemnwhitesupremacychallenge And we've got a lot of work to do, so let's get to it!
