Never done this #introduction thing, and it is starting to feel rude, so hi! I'm Lydia.
I mostly post about #writing and #illustration of my #dark #pagan #witchy #fantasy novels while I create #digitalart and share my love for #nature and #naturephotography
I occasionally post about #linux and #privacy as I try to navigate the digital world without ethical compromise. I take care to post with ALT text and CW.
Looking to connect to other spirits on a creative path.
This is mostly copypasted from my other #introduction post, since I think it's the bestest one I've written thus far :)
I'm a #writer. I like to write about #grief, #QueerIdentity, #hope, #praxis, and #harm + #reciprocity. (my websites are in my links!)
I have trained as a #DeathDoula, and I engage in #GriefWork & #DeathWork with and for my best beloveds: the #LGBTQIA2S+ community.
In my spare time you can find me hyperfocusing on whatever it is that I can't stop thinking about. I love a new game, a new favorite song, a new project management solution, and thinking about my chosen family and intentional community.
I'm #pagan, I am training in an old mystery tradition of pre-Gardnerian British traditional #witchcraft. We are from a long time ago and we are doing what it takes to support, love, and keep safe the people in our communities.
I will always fight for your right to #choose. I believe this right is a fundamental human gift.

We’re also looking for #pagan interest and/or #blog writers, #podcasters or website/social media contributors too.
If you’re reliable & passionate about your content & can commit to creating regular daily/weekly programs/content or as a one-off contributor (content depending) for the website/station, we’d love to hear from you!

New post on my blog.
While there are many factors contributing to the phenomenon we call the witch hunts, I contend one way they can be understood is in terms of a change in the conception of consciousness from group to personal dynamics. Let’s look at the many ways in which this change was evidenced in Europe in the 15th & 16th centuries, and why this change contributed to bringing about the witch hunts.
Welp, finally finished my Big Think on the role of "digital media" in polytheist and animist art: https://rotwork.wordpress.com/2023/09/10/on-fossil-media/

Since there has been a huge influx of new users, I decided to write a new #Introduction and actually pin it to my profile.
I'm pushing 50 years old and I live in a Red State that is trying to make me illegal. I'm a #pansexual / #bisexual #transgender woman married to a heterosexual cisgender woman who frequently talks about the current hellscape for people like me in my Toots.
I'm #NeuroDivergent / #ND which is probably why all of these sentences start with "I".
I've worked in #InfoSec for a little over 20 years. I've had lots of roles in #SecEng, #SecOps, and #ThreatManagement. I taught myself #Perl, #Bash, #SQL, and #PowerShell. I'm decent at #JavaScript. I can read #Python and #Ruby. I enjoy automating things and turning manual processes into scripts.
I've been the primary #CareGiver to my wife for 8 years since she developed a chronic condition and went on disability.
My hobbies including #writing #paranormal short fiction, journaling my #dreams, and playing #PCGames on my laptop and #SteamDeck.
I prefer #StarGate over #StarTrek over #StarWars. Still waiting for Amazon to do something, anything with the Stargate property.
While we loved the #ArrowVerse including #Stargirl and #SwampThing, in general we prefer #Marvel over #DC.
I'm a fan of #Horror / #HorrorFam, #HorrorMovies and #HorrorBooks, especially the existential dread of #CosmicHorror or #LovecraftianHorror. I tend to sympathize with the nameless terrors. I am not a fan of mindless slashers, unrelenting gore, or torture porn. Over-the-top, egregious gore that crosses into the absurd is fine, though, so I am a Sam Raimi fan, obvs. Also, #HorrorComedies are underappreciated.
I'm slowly reconnecting with my #Pagan roots. I knew some stuff about #Tarot and had a friend who as a tree a lifetime ago and I'm trying to rekindle that.
We've got #Cats and they are our kids. I also happen to love #Frogs, but we don't have any of those.

i seem to have made a slightly popular post & am getting a bunch of new follows, & I guess I should make a proper #intro now:
As the profile says, aspiring to be a combo of Granny Weatherwax and Nanny Ogg. I've been practicing various forms of witchcraft and paganism for over 20 years.
These days my practice is less formal ritual and more lifestyle. Primarily the embodiment of Sacred Hospitality.
Spend a lot of my time with my pets, knitting, and drinking a cuppa.

Hey there everyone here on the social instance! I made my home originally on the .lol server.
Sadly, people ruined a nice thing and burnt out the Mod. He started and ran it for well over a decade. Really cool dude, so it super sucks.
In any event, I'll be calling this happy spot home from here on out.

Wait. No. That's actually not true.
For privacy, I don't use my meatspace name here. But it's okay, you don't know me. (Unless you do, in which case you know that you do.)
I live in the Manchester UK area. I'm #Neurodiverse and #weird and #geeky, all three.
I'm likely to natter about #ScienceFiction, #TTRPG, #Linux, #privacy, #ukpolitics, and The Meaning Of Life. I'm kind of #Pagan? Ish?
Nice to meet you.

One of the best parts about being both a Heathen who venerates Freyja and an anarcha-feminist is that being slutty isn't just fun, it's also praxis!
