A vintage-style “Grandiloquent Word of the Day” poster on aged parchment. The featured word is “Malison” with the pronunciation [MAL-ih-sun] and definition: “Words spoken intended to direct supernatural powers to inflict harm or punishment on someone; a curse.” Beneath it is an example sentence about someone uttering a curse against a corporate sorcerer responsible for complex legalese in a software license agreement. On the right, a black-ink Victorian-style illustration shows a horned, bat-winged demon looming behind a frightened pair of women in old-fashioned clothing. There is a tombstone behind the women.
Malison [MAL-ih-sun]
(n.)
- Words spoken intended to direct supernatural powers to inflict harm or punishment on someone; a curse.

I just bought a memory card for this Minneapolis-based effort to mass mobilize against ICE efforts. Yes it's an Amazon wishlist, but that does make it easy. They will also take Amazon giftcards.

There are so many people living lives of quiet dignity despite horrific medical news or poverty or tragedy where every day they still wake up and try to be good people in the world even as the world pushes against them and it makes me even angrier at the absolute shitheads that rule over things

Many years ago when I worked at Culver's, they had a system for other stations in the kitchen to communicate with each other using cheese, condiments and how the bun is placed or tilted on the lip of a tray. That kind of stuff is so interesting and useful.
