The first warm day over here... And someone dragged his jembey to the skate ramp across the road...

The first 3 hours were fine. Fine! Okay!

But I'm losing my patience... after this sporadic encore every 15 minutes 6 hours later.

When I used to live at a large squatted terrain with loads of bonfire nights there was this rule that was enforced ruthlessly; Jembeys, drums and bongo's will be burned when played by the talentless or repetitive.

Today I found out they are organizing the actual Passion of Christ (the televised one) in my hometown.

They have been building massive stages in the town centre... Traffic is a mess.

Whoa... I did some digging on the interwebs ( I watched three and halve video's on youtube); I got it all wrong or right, depending on which school of Tarot you follow.

The binary nature of Tarot cards comes from the positive or negative outcomes from the concept that a card represents. The fact that some cards have gendered names like "the Empress" or "the Emperor" doesn't mean the concepts they stand for are gendered. Unless you choose so.

And apparently this only about tarot de Marseille. Which is not commonl ... ⌘ [Read more](https://strangeobject.space/@amro/112231787924556280) 2024-04-07T22:41:02Z ****
