platforms and tech companies have been taking significant steps over the past few years to comply in advance.

one thing is clear: OS-level verification and app-level autosurveillance capabilities that use facial scanning and deep metadata analysis are fundamentally incompatible with a free internet.

Within the next week, Congress is preparing to vote on the KIDS Act, a sprawling package of legislation that seeks to control Americans’ web browsing and private messaging. The package includes a revised version of the Kids Online Safety Act, or KOSA, combined with a collection of other internet bills, study bills, reporting requirements, and new regulations. Instead of debating any of these proposals on their merits, lawmakers are attempting to move them all at once under an ultra-expedited process. 

creating an altar to yourself: an exercise in manifestation and passive control

recently my best friend told me about a change he made to his personal practice that completely revolutionized the way he felt fortune flowed for him. i've seen people talk about creating an egregore of themselves or their alter ego, but this approach is uniquely secular and occurred completely detached from this online space.

and what was it he did? well, he created an altar to himself.

and i know what that sounds like, but hear me out. this isn't so much an altar of worship or reverence--at least not in the way we think about those things--it's a passive spell that runs in the background, an act of self-care for his past self, boosting his self-confidence for his current self, and manifesting the person he wants to become.

SO I made a bunch of little stones out of air dry clay and painted a sigil on each! I also made a taglock stone for myself that I can just whip out instead of carving my name/birthdate into a candle. The colors all correspond to the sigil meanings 🎨✨

This one is for my introverts, empaths, and anyone who feels easily drained by socializing or in crowds. Don't get me wrong, I love people, but I regularly get social-hangovers from interacting with too many people. I often feel other people's emotions, and by the end of the day, I have no energy left for myself. Here are the ways I've learned to deal with this:

🫧 Bubble of Protection. If you've never tried to cast one before, I've linked to my favorite guided visualization on Insight Timer for you to try out.

🫧 Wear protective amulets & crystals. I remember the first time I was presented with an evil eye bracelet. One of my friends, who happens to be from Turkey, gave it to me, telling me he thinks I needed it and that it wards against the evil eye. After a month of wearing it, I found the bead cracked. Devastated & embarrassed, I told him what happened. He smiled and assured me that the bracelet worked how it was meant to, breaking once it's taken a hit in your protection. Ever since I've worn one.

🫧 Wear protective oils, like my classic Sun Oil, or anything that represents protection to you.

Okay, so what if I forgot or these didn't work?

🫧 Moonwater spray, to cleanse other people's energies off of you. I do this one first thing when I come home after being in large crowds or feeling bad vibes. PS. Don't forget to spray your back!

🫧 Epsom salt bath to recharge your energy. This is my number one social-hangover remedy. I'll add clear quartz around the bath to help charge me up. If bath isn't an option for you, sprinkle the epsom salts on the shower floor and stand on them to feel the charging & energy cleansing effects of the salt.

🫧 Nightly incantation to release all energy that is not at home. This is a prayer I found online years ago that you may use or take as inspiration,

"Before I lay me down to sleep, I release all energies that are not mine to keep. May no hostle outside forces linger here. I call forth my protection and calmness to help ease me through the night. Sacred guides, please guard my body & spirit til morning light."

🫧 Forest bathing!!! If all else fails, go to the woods! Lay down in the grass (or on a blanket) and feel the connection with Mother Earth. Listen to the nature sounds, smell the trees, watch the birds in the sky, and relax. Let Gaia cleanse and recharge you.

What Are Energy Vampires?

Energy Vampires are LIVING people who drain your emotional energy through their interactions with you. They leave you feeling completely exhausted after spending time together, often without even realizing the impact they're having.

These individuals typically lack self-awareness about their draining behavior and tend to feed off attention, drama, and emotional reactions from others. The good news is that energy vampires can often be managed through setting clear boundaries and limiting your exposure to their draining energy.

What Are Dark Entities?

Dark Entities are NON-PHYSICAL beings that exist in the spiritual realm and can attach themselves to your energy field. Unlike energy vampires, these entities work from within, creating persistent negative thoughts and influencing your emotions on a deeper level. They tend to resist positive energy work and spiritual practices, making them more challenging to deal with than human energy drains. Dark entities typically require intentional spiritual cleansing and protection work to fully remove their influence from your life.

Key Differences - The Source

Energy Vampires drain you through human relationships and social interactions. You'll notice the exhaustion specifically after conversations or time spent with certain people. The drain is external and tied to your interpersonal connections.

Dark Entities operate from the spiritual realm through energy attachments that influence you internally. Their impact isn't tied to specific people or conversations, but rather comes from within your own energy field and mental space.

How They Affect You

Energy Vampires make you feel tired and drained specifically after interactions with certain people. You'll notice that drama and chaos seem to follow these individuals wherever they go. The relief comes when you're physically away from them, and your energy naturally starts to restore itself.

Dark Entities create a constant heavy feeling that's hard to shake, regardless of who you're with or where you are. They generate intrusive negative thoughts that feel foreign to your usual thinking patterns, and the oppressive energy persists even when you're alone or in positive environments.

Red Flags to Watch For

Energy Vampire Signs include people who always position themselves as the victim in every situation, never show genuine interest in your life or well-being, and seem to create chaos and drama wherever they go. They're masters of guilt trips and emotional manipulation, using these tactics to keep you engaged and feeding their need for attention.

Dark Entity Signs manifest as sudden, unexplained personality changes that feel out of character for you. You might experience waves of fear or anxiety that seem to come from nowhere, along with a persistent feeling that you're "not quite yourself." These entities often create resistance when you try to engage in positive spiritual practices or self-care routines.

Protection Methods

For Energy Vampires, protection comes through setting and maintaining clear boundaries with the people who drain you. Limit the amount of time you spend with them, refuse to engage in their drama or negativity, and practice confidently saying "no" to their demands. Protecting your energy isn't selfish; it's necessary for your well-being.

For Dark Entities, protection requires more spiritual approaches like regular energy cleansing rituals and protective visualizations. Burning sage or palo santo can help clear negative energy from your space, while seeking guidance from experienced spiritual practitioners can provide personalized protection strategies for your specific situation.

Drained water from places suffering from drought for absolute pennies.

Made African mothers dependent on their milk formula, which they gave for free, until their milk dried up. Then they required them to purchase it, mothers could not afford it, mixed in too little to fulfill nutrient needs, and mixed it with polluted water. Children died.

Used slavery to produce their cocoa.

Pushed for water to be considered a “want” not a “need” and is at the forefront of arguments that water is not a human right.

Poisoned Chinese infants with melamine in their milk formula.

Demanded Ethiopia pay a debt owed to Nestle, during a FAMINE.

Price-fixed food items.

Contributed to deforestation for their cocoa farming.

The worst thing is, Nestle owns TONS of other brands, making it difficult to avoid for certain products.

I randomly dislocated and fractured my knee back in August and as such was unable to work for four months. While I have been working again since January, the fact that I have missed out on four months worth of income means that I am still struggling with payments

My original goal is $3,000 of which I have so far raised $800
