ID / TL;DW: young Black man explains the history of voodoo dolls: they originated in England, where Black people where prohibited from learning to read or write, to help witches keep track of what ailed their patients. Eg., person goes to witch and laments headache, they treat their headache and make a small doll (called "poppet"), trying to represent them as good as possible, stick a needle in its head and put it up a shelf. When they return next week, the witch takes their poppet and asks about their headache. If it's gone, they remove the needle, otherwise they know they have to treat a rather persistent headache.

I am a little bit in love with Dr Ryland Grace

Under videos and articles about how the hantavirus outbreak is possibly spreading for person to person and they’re having to do contact tracing for several sick passengers who flew publicly and now there is a French guy who possibly caught it from sharing a plane with the elderly woman who died, there are my fellow Americans saying shit like “Maybe I’ll take up violin this lockdown.” or “I don’t want to do the whole quarantine thing again :(” it is so cute that you think that we will have a lockdown to inhibit/slow viral spread. It’s adorable that you think this administration will take any sort of measures to stop the outbreak of a (far more deadly than COVID) virus, especially since they’re refusing to acknowledge the measles outbreak. The U.S. is no longer part of the WHO. The right has spent the last 6 years sowing the seeds of medical mistrust and toxic individualism to the degree that a large portion of the population will never comply with masking and quarantining mandates under any circumstances. Lockdown was terrible for the general public’s mental health and terrible for the economy but it slowed the spread and protected the vulnerable. These anti-science troglodytes coughing on everyone else at Walmart and dying will be even worse for our mental health and even worse for the economy. Let’s hope it stays in Europe and South Africa because if it spreads to the U.S. under this administration, the devastation will be catastrophic.

This post is the distilled essence of everything I believe in.

Introducing yourself to people is so embarrassing. Like hey this is my stupid fucking name, I enjoy exactly 3 things, and am clearly anxious. please don't immediately hate me
