Musings on Magic, Imagination, and the Physical World - Synchronicity swirls and other foolishness
http://heron61.livejournal.com/685434.html
Musings on Magic, Imagination, and the Physical World - Synchronicity swirls and other foolishness. My rpg writing site. August 2nd, 2010. 03:23 am - Musings on Magic, Imagination, and the Physical World. Thinking more on both this post about magic and Alan Moore. And also this post about some of my own magical beliefs. As well as most of the sorts of more practical magic that I have performed or prosperity, luck, or other purposes. So, what about affecting the weather or the spin of a roulette wheel?

February meta-blogging - Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz
http://squid314.livejournal.com/355455.html
February meta-blogging - Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz. Feb 5th, 2013 12:17 am. Several people have suggested I move off LiveJournal because it has a negative prestige aura surrounding it and a lot of people are unwilling to read or link to LiveJournals. It might bring someone into disrepute or something, or even offend patients and destroy the therapeutic relationship. So things I need to know:. 1 What blogging platforms are good? And this is my current top contender for future blog name. If...

More True Crime - Aishes Chayil: Mi Yimtza?
http://kressel.livejournal.com/176677.html
Aishes Chayil: Mi Yimtza? In Search of Aishes Chayil. Aug 14th, 2012 at 8:53 AM. My rating: 4 of 5 stars. As my recent book choices show, I've developed a bit of an interest in true crime, but I assure you, this happened purely by accident. I read The Monster Butler. I'm still puzzling over the two murderers, though. Perry is the one described as the unrepentant psychopath, but he. At the moment, though, I'm going in the opposite direction and reading about notable humanitarians: Octavia Hill during the ...

Jackdaws love my big sphinx of quartz. A truly superlative link. Feb 3rd, 2013 02:10 pm. My top source for superbowl pictures and information continues to be thesuperbowl.reddit.com. Jan 16th, 2013 11:59 pm. I am away doing interviews, so minimal blogging this week. About one in fifty people will swerve to deliberately hit a turtle on the road. No data on the number of replicants. For driving in the carpool lane "alone". Blinking is not just lubricating the eyes but possibly a sort of microsleep. Used to...

Bittercon --why we love bad writing - Oached Pish
http://sartorias.livejournal.com/476638.html
Bittercon - why we love bad writing - Oached Pish. 16 July 2011 @ 09:02 am. Bittercon - why we love bad writing. Why We Love Bad Writing. Or are entertaining writing and good writing two entirely distinct ways of evaluating a book? I see this one as somewhat different from the endless "what is bad writing/what is good writing? Because it seems to imply that the reader recognizes that the book in hand is not well written, and yet she is enjoying it anyway. Everyone in the two novels I tried seems to have ...

General Public Busybody Theory - an explorer's log
http://mikelevins.livejournal.com/7934.html
Charting places never seen, and people never been. General Public Busybody Theory. I was idly thinking about the GIFT (explained here. Which comes up often for me because I not only surf the net, I also play networked games, where the theory plays out so often and so emphatically. I was also thinking about the things that people think are weird and foolish in other people, because I happen to be traveling this week, and those things vary somewhat from one place to another. The second piece of the puzzle ...

The Just City, by Jo Walton - Fifteen Percent Concentrated Power Of Will
http://rachelmanija.livejournal.com/1187320.html
Fifteen Percent Concentrated Power Of Will. I picked up a pen, I wrote my own deliverance. The Just City, by Jo Walton. Jun 30th, 2015 at 9:55 AM. Apollo wants to understand why Daphne would rather be a tree than have sex with him. Athena wants to find out what would happen if she took everyone throughout time who has ever prayed to her to let them live in Plato’s Republic. Out of all of Jo Walton’s strange premises, this one takes the cake. Even more than Framley Parsonage. To read this. The book ex...
