February 6, 2025 Jeremy Fox, Writings and Whatnot The Recitation of the Fox – Part 2 Continued from Part 1 SUFFICIENCY Why now? Because what better time than immediately! Look, there’s a lot of people talking about how “The Earth is in trouble,” and “‘Gaia’ is hurting,” and “You need to save the planet,” and whatnot. This is all nonsense. The planet is fine.

I shared it, but history has changed, and so should this Myth. Right now we need people to talk about how the world can still become a better place, because if […] | more
February 4, 2025 Jeremy Writings and Whatnot Scooooby Dooby Demiurge! DID YOU KNOW that “Scooby-Doo, Where Are You!” is a Qabalistic Gnostic redemption myth?

January 9, 2025 Jeremy Grimoire The Black Squirrel’s Conjure Found this in the archives and thought it deserved to be sun-lighted. This happened in Stanley Park, I think, or at least a version of it. I thought it was a critter, you know, because it was so dark, and so swift, and skittered down the path. Then it clambered up the bench and perched […] | more
January 8, 2025 Jeremy Writings and Whatnot Participatory Ecology 101: Ethics for a Participatory Ecology Reframing how we see “Nature” is going to take some work. Nature isn’t just a collection of biosystems outside of your house; it’s a process in which entities participate. Nature is an “exchange of goods and services” via a network of nodes and connections.
