Thank you so much for offering reciprocity for my work. I feel the love, I feel the support, I feel the warmth. I feel overwhelming gratitude. I hope you enjoy this offering of audio for this part 1 of the science is the study of magic series (2 parts).

small note to those who may feel bristled by my financial self promotion: I get it. It feels like everyone is asking for a paid subscription these days. Here is my value & belief system behind this: everyone deserves to be paid for their art, their work, their labor. The way we have been receiving free art & information for so long was that our data was being sold to corporations, and that data is used to try to sell us more things. One answer we have to this rather disgusting conundrum is that we pay people directly for their work, which now comes in the form of subscriptions or donations.

In our wage slavery system, the only way to try to set ourselves free from the jurisdiction of the overlord employer is to barter, trade, and pay one another for our labor. When you trade, barter, or donate to my labor, I feel reciprocity & love & some very tangible support in the struggle to survive under capitalism.

Thank you for listening <3
