  • I don’t feel like I did all that much yesterday,

    but that probably isn’t true. Transphobes and asshats keep losing their shit about a hairy gremlin having the audacity to wear makeup in my comments sections, so every time they do, I do progressively crazier modern art inspired makeup looks and make a bunch of content with them. Yesterday I filmed more “apocalypse you” videos in lingerie, ehehe.

    Today also happens to be one of the best days for manifestation for this entire year due to a Venus-Jupiter conjunction in Cancer and my Venus is in Cancer, so this feels especially potent.

    Stay tuned for how that goes. I’m tired, y’all. Goodnight!

  • I spent a large part of the day making social media banners for people.

    These are a few of my favorites:

    I was inspired to do this by listening to the podcast I Like Your Work, and I listened to the latest episode while making a banner that is unfortunately not shown here.

    If you want a banner, feel free to reach out to me on socials and we can set something up!

  • A PSA regarding a random comment on Instagram from 19 weeks ago left on a post even older than that:

    If you hate me enough to have me blocked on your main account on socials and I literally wouldn’t know you from Adam.. rest assured that I don’t hate you, I don’t know even know who you are, lol. Have fun with your hatred, I guess??? -Allēna

  • New painting just dropped!

    My friend mk saw my post about cursing profile photos and asked for a new banner for its socials. So I delivered. It has a cool hot pink and blank void punk aesthetic across its socials which I frankly love (hot pink is my favorite color) so this was a pleasure to paint.

    The banner is below!

    I also highly recommend following mk for excellent takes on what’s going on in the world and brilliant poetry, etc..

    If anyone wants their socials artistically cursed by us truly, drop us a line!

    Hey, everyone. Lazarus again.

    Recently Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook and owner of several other apps, completely took his mask off when it came to his views on the LGBTQ+ community, and announced that, in essence, hate speech and discrimination towards people in the LGBTQ+ community is completely okay and allowed on his platforms. Here’s the announcement in full.

    As a result, many people I know are pissed the absolute fuck off and leaving all of his platforms for greener pastures such as Bluesky and Mastodon. I can’t blame them, frankly. Things on Facebook have been going that way for years, since 2020 at least from what I can tell, and I’m all for everyone doing whatever it takes to keep themselves safe and comfortable.

    I, however, am in a bit of a mental bind. I don’t have the fucking energy to keep making profiles on platforms every time the powers that be screw me over. I’m a member of the Tumblr old guard way, way back in the dark ages of 2013 and watched Tumblr die and revive itself when Yahoo bought it and then had to sell it again in a fire sale because people on Tumblr are fucking unhinged, I was on Twitter for awhile and watched THAT slowly decline, and I have a terrible knack for forgetting the apps and accounts I already have exist. Hell, my executive dysfunction and fatigue even prevent me from writing here sometimes.

    Conversely, I own Open Sorcery. Completely. The only people I have to answer to in this regard are my web registrar and bank account to renew my hosting and the domain name and things. It’s also hooked in with the magnificent wonder that is the Fediverse AND bridged with Bluesky, a Fediverse/Twitter competitor of sorts.

    All of this hullabaloo makes me really glad that my now integrated headmate got very pissed off, forgot what life was for about ten hours, and built this thing back in June, haha. So if you need me, I’ll be right here, hovering about three inches off the ground, everywhere and nowhere at once, spouting nonsense as close to daily as I’m able, probably vibrating out of my skin because the Zelda System has generously provided me with 500 WHOLE CAFFEINE PILLS with which to fuel chaos behavior. 🤣

    Thank you.

    Now, have memes.

    Here are the lovely gremlins who have already made the EXCELLENT choice to follow my nonsense, as well..

    Stay tuned for more magic!

    Also, if you are one of the esteemed gremlins jumping ship to Mastodon, etc., follow me in the Fediverse. My username is @opensorceryy.
