Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

"Understand that I approach the topic of thoughts and prayers as High Priest and Witch. It's not a platitude, and when I (frequently) tell someone that they are in my thoughts and prayers, I am making a statement of Will. Which is to say I am doing Magick.

[...]

"But thoughts and prayers on the lips of those who actively cause and perpetuate the world in which these events lead us to need thoughts and prayers, that is the rankest of hypocrisy, and merits our bitterest scorn. It is the homophobes, the racists, the folk who will hear of no regulation on gun ownership no matter how reasonable that draw such righteous wrath from us when they offer us thoughts and prayers on the day that their deliberate actions have lead to their predictable consequences."
