hello, I can't find the butch fag flag anywhere on ur blog but afaik ure the creator. could i get a pointer

hi! that was part of a group of “public domain image pride flags” i was doing for fun on my Twitter a few years ago - i’ve never put them up here, as i wasn’t really back on Tumblr yet at the time & they were mostly by request for friends & followers (that one was made specifically for my friend @saint-vagrant!)

they were available for a bit on my Redbubble account as stickers but i’ve since closed that down due to their terrible new policies around fees. not sure if i’ll put them back up when i eventually find a new print-on-demand shop, they really were just a fun one-off kind of thing. maybe if there’s one or two that folks are really into still!

I really loved Queerkeit Coven. Do you know if it will continue? I would love to join a queer, Jewish magical space on Discord :)

hey! it’s really nice to be reminded that folks still think fondly on that, thank you. while i can say with certainty that i won’t personally be involved in running anything else related to that, i’m sure there are other folks who might be interested in making something similar, or it might already exist! if you haven’t looked into @thejewitches, i’d recommend checking them out (they’re more active on Instagram i think)

for myself, i’ve sort of ducked out of “witchy” communities again - my love for Jewish magic & mysticism tends a little more towards the academic/historic than many of the folks i encounter in those spaces. while i’ve always described myself as a “witchy” Jew (in that my Judaism is weird, anti-authoritarian, and more interested in mysticism/magic than much of the mainstream), i’ve realized i don’t quite fit in with “Jewish witches” - many of whom i love & respect, we just have different focuses & levels of investment in witch/magic community! for example, i am all in for conversations about folklore, the history of ritual objects, ancient texts, the making of amulets, etc., but i have pretty much nothing to add to conversations about…i don’t know, spirit work or astrology or energy healing. it’s not that my mind is necessarily closed to those things, they just aren’t really part of my life. i think i’m probably the wrong person to be heading up community that leans more in that direction, which seemed like what more people ended up wanting. i also just don’t really have server or community-running capacity at this point in my life, haha. i hope you find something useful & best of luck in your search!
