Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

No advertising. No trolling. No hate. Violaters will be removed unceremoniously.

We love art credits when possible.

Message aside, I find I really dig artsy nudes.

“Most books on witchcraft will tell you that witches work naked. This is because most books on witchcraft are written by men.”

That looks like a pretty hot fire...

Please don't do this in the woods unless it's rained quite recently.

We'd like to still have the woods tomorrow.

There are less-destructive ways to meet hot firefighters of whatever gender you prefer.

Yes, this is why

"Why are they jumping through bonfires naked?!"

"Well it's far too dangerous to jump through the bonfire with your clothes on!"

Real wilderness or cities for me. Nothing in between, please.

Places that are alive.

The suburbs really are the worst of all options.

It's too spread out for scenes (eg: a music scene, an art scene) to take off.

It's too dense for nature to be primary.

And then there are small towns. Plenty of nature, minimal public infrastructure, but everyone around you is either slowly dying or slowly killing themselves.

Suburbs are a calculated kind of death, yes. Alienated, compartmentalized; all space is individual, no freedom to roam (unless you want to do crimes abd wander all night to stay away from school and dance with thoughts of running away, and even then fences are annoying). Difficult to navigate cleanly. Everything's so individuated so there's never a theme or flow to anything. Trees that are too big get cut down. No space to do or be. No life.

Fuck them so hard.

You get more nature in a city and more nourishing human contact in the deep woods.

They're also heavily car reliant. The wilderness and cities both promote walking/hiking

Yeah. I get tye sense people who talk about "rural must car!" Have never really lived anywhere out of the way. Never cut their own paths in the world.

Hey! The golf course uses a much higher quality than lawn grass! You apologize to the country club right now!

Cities feel dead to me. There's social stuff, maybe but it's easy to get lost in it all.

Give me a community with some vibrancy in spitting distance of some wildlife instead.

[–] gAlienLifeform@lemmy.world 17 points 22 hours ago* (last edited 22 hours ago) (3 children)

Well built and maintained cities with green spaces and neighborhood organizations totally have community and wildlife. Cities that have had their naturally grown social systems and ecosystems disrupted with gentrification and bad urban planning feel dead, but so do rural areas that got poisoned by irresponsible agriculture and mining and industry collapses.

Give me a dense urban center with public transportation and parks and wildlife that knows what time of day the bakers throw out yesterday's stale bread

e; and neighborhood block parties where local musicians jam and raise money for food pantries

Fairly often you'll see deer in and around Cleveland. So if you're into wildlife, public transport, and the infinite depression of urban collapse...

Vienna/Austria has boars, foxes, badgers and more! Even a healthy population of deer on the central graveyard :-) A few months ago a weasel fell in our small backyard garden and panicked our cats lol

This is basically Seattle in my experience

Needs to be a really big city, and i need to actively engage, but it's there.

Anyone have the original image?

Can’t find a good resolution one…
