    Why not? I’m fucking 40 and while I wouldn’t say all the time, I do it any time I think I can get away with it generating humour to boot. It works cuz THAT’S my excuse. Loki backs me up nearly every single time. How do you think I survived a helmet-less head injury after getting hit by a car on my bike? Even my Nuersurgeon expected nothing and 3 mo this later was exponentially MORE shocked I woke up at all let alone able to speak even if back then I couldn’t finish an entire sentance.

        It’s like The Stone and the Flute by Hans Bemmann. Totally a fantasy until you realize what level truth is being given with no interest or need for facts. Such being unrelated to what is given.

        And no, I am not a Changeling. I’m a CoX. Not that you’ll ever catch those references. It’s not necessary.

      I’ that makes me so happy. To the devil with the excuse. I felt like it also works; but it’s good to have an excuse when the nails start coming out of pockets, unless you bliss right up over everyone who’s got the nails and hammer.

        My excuse was was just a step in the path that improved my life. For as horrible as it occured, everything else got exponentially fantastically luckier than that one moment was unlucky. I could list a dozen amazing things that came together right therein after. The guy stuck around, had insurance, got me an ambulence…many many more things just lined up to improve my life right therein after.

          Hanged man energy (hanging on the tree of life upside down) gives that perspective, doesn’t it? It took me kissing death on the mouth a few times before I got the perspective I really needed, though. Whatever, as long as we do the work to get there after the stepping stones appear. They’re not there to walk on themselves!

          Lighter than a feather feels great!

            If I get the cash and a good drawing beforehand to be sure a lot of the tiny little details apart of it are done correctly beforehand I’ll have exactly that tattooed on my back. The hanged man.

              Forget the money and watch it flow. Put your mind on creative endeavors, because you sound like an artist.

                I know what I want but haven’t gotten it even drawn beyond some incomplete sketches.

                Key points though:

                The cross is upside down, posted on a round stone Pentagram “window” pointing up. The top of the cross ends in the middle of the pentagon in the center Through the window you can see an almost completely waned moon crescent but through that bright bit you see a crow facing the foot of the hanged man.

                Outside the stone crawls a dragon biting his tail on the top right (from your perspective of viewing such). His wings hang on the left. The left leg is obviously bent with the foot just “above” the other knee. The right foot is nailed. The hands clasped over the chest just between the nipples and the belly.

                There’s more I’m still debating details of when I get to find an artist. Some I won’t put out there til I get it too.

                  It sounds like a mixture of the oroboros, the Ace of Pentacles, the Five of Cups, not-quite Yggdrasil/Petra’s cross, and Odin. Tbh it sounds dope af! I’m totally vibing on the pictures in my head. I’m adding Ogun’s face on the Ace of Pents, in my mind’s eye, but you do you! As I said, it sounds dope!
