i killed a bug three weeks ago and I still feel horrible. have some rage art :3
This place feels…strange
Abandoned parking lot I found a few nights back, eerie vibes for sure
if I meet u at a party I will often hand you my phone and say something like "this is a list of names for girls. please read through and then add one." the list is special because you can only add to it in person; I won't add something that you tell me about over text. however, I think it's okay for me to share it here. without further ado, I present: girl names (names for girls)
Egg to steal crops:
"One day he found in his turnip drills a boiled goose-egg. The superstition in connection with this is that the person who puts the egg in the crop will be able to steal the crop."

"Certain families are believed to be able to take a great lot of the profit from a field of corn by planting eggs in each corner of the cornfield on May Day.
The people suspected of butter taking are suspected of working magic with the eggs."

"Dheir sé soiléir annsan gur do phiseogaibh a bhí sé ag tagairt agus mhinigh se gur scaipeadh uibheacha go fóir leathan i ngairdínibh prátaí agus sna móinfheárachaibh comh maith, agus sna cocaibh agus sna giobólaibh féir,"

"It happened one day about that time, however, that a stranger came into the place from a good distance away and spend some time about the district. From that day on the practice of planting eggs, pig's heads, slings (aborted calves) and the clearings of slinger cows, and other things too, in the soil of the gardens, and in the meadows and wynds of hay, as well as dumping the (?) articles in bags on farms, grew for years until it destroyed itself."

It appears that the placing or burying of eggs on someones property or place of growth allowed a user to reduce and obtain the effected crops. This could have modern implications with wider ideas of crops. Eggs are not the sole material for this magic but they seem the most common. The use of this magic appears to have been a widespread issue at some point.
Anyway, daily reminder from a culturally isolated Romani person.
Gypsy does not mean wanderer.
It literally means ‘people from egypt’ or similar, as europeans believed Romani people were from Egypt. It has become known similar to nomad due to how our ancestors have been forced to be nomadic due to racism and ostracization, but it is a SLUR.
Romani people are STILL being forcibly sterilized.
Romani people are STILL being forced into ghettos.
Romani people are still facing violence and danger in countless European countries- and recently, I’ve seen the beginnings of the extremes in the United States.
Have a little fucking respect and DON’T USE A SLUR THAT’S BEEN USED FOR CENTURIES AGAINST US.
And for the love of whatever’s up there, ESPECIALLY do not use it to describe your witchcraft. It is playing on the ‘magic gypsy’ trope, and is EXTREMELY insulting.
