There, I said it.

people poo poo on ringo a lot, but like, ok, if you're so good, why didn't the beatles pick you for drummer?

plus he was the conductor on thomas, so he'll always have a special place in my heart.

enable this for a wide range of cspam catchphrases. make "in minecraft" bold red with sirens. "owned" where each letter is bigger than the last. fyad pink text, yospos in code blocks. nazi could autolink to a gif of springtime for hitler. anarchakiddy/tankie in pure white.

C-spam's Daily Reading



Judgement: reflective thoughts. Today is a day of self-evaluation and reassessment. Accept the faults of your bias, but don't let it cloud your ideas.

8 of Pentacles: achievable feelings. Today is a day of diligence and sustained effort. Things worked now is one less burden for the future self.

Inverted Knight of Pentacles: unfulfilling actions. Today is a day of solid effort with little reward or praise. Required work unsung, but required nonetheless.

judgement is also a low-key sexy times card. as the solid facade site put it, "Herein is the intimation of a significance which cannot well be carried further in the present place. What is that within us which does sound a trumpet and all that is lower in our nature rises in response--almost in a moment, almost in the twinkling of an eye?"

Hello again C-Spam, today I bring you a pm in need of guidance and advice from the cards. As always, I've rewritten and anonymized it to keep their identity hidden.

anonymous posted:

Hello Seer, my question is simple - i haven't seen my online friend in a while, and im not sure if I should reach out and see how they're doing or if they'll come back on their own.

Situation / Outcome Reading #3



Inverted Death: fear of change. Sometimes people outgrow spaces, or lose connection and its normal to want them to remain. Sometimes it's not up to you to decide, instead do your part to always ensure there's a spot at the table for them if they decide to come back.

Knight of Cups: messenger. You can always send them a message they can read on their own time, positive support is good, but respect boundaries and let them have their personal space.

Inverted 8 of Swords: acceptance. Closure is the name of the game here, if you need to send a message then send it. If they want to come back they will on their own. Sometimes people have bigger obligations than they let on

- - - - - -

Remember to send me PMs of situations or questions you have, or ask in the thread if you don't care to be anonymized. I do single card draws as well!

it would be unironically good if, for example, the succ zone got together once per month to collate the links they bookmarked, tweets they saved, etc. from that thread. it could be any high traffic thread, and doesn't have to be done once per month, just throwing that out as an example.

maybe opening a google doc at the end of the month and asking people in the thread to edit it stuff into it would work

the thing about tarot, astronomy, etc, is that both sides are "right." they are a direct line to the primal source of human intellect. it just happens to be that the primal source of human intellect is finding meaningful patterns in white noise. they're fundamentally collections of symbols hooked up to random number generators. that's why they work: the act of applying random bullshit to our own life is where the actual insight occurs in much of our daily experience. it's a random set of constraints aligned with an arrangement of fundamentally recognizable symbols meant to prompt reflection on the subject at hand.

this seems miraculously insightful because the human mind is precisely that.

yes, they provide the symbols along with any meaning assigned in advance to the positions the cards are placed in. the shuffling of the deck provides the very basic pseudorandom process which arranges them in any of n possible combinations.

i'm just using this as a general chat thread now tbh

i assume there is one but it isn't stickied and there are new replies in this thread

e: while i love the tarot thing, if there is no general chat thread at the moment i am willing to make one and leave this one to its intended purpose (tarot readings) on the following condition: that i am under no obligation to put any effort into the OP.
e2: i may, at my discretion (if my high keeps up long enough) write a op in the form of a charter declaring posters therein to be freegoons on the forums and the thread a common good owned by all who post therein
