The cult
Their own respective pieces will follow, containing spoilers from the book.
This is my go to method that I use most times I shift. I shift using sleep paralysis about 4 times a week and successfully. I like this method because it puts me in the thoughtless state which allows me to shift and allows me to focus. You don’t need to focus to shift but when I don’t I tend to just not want to shift anymore because I’m so consumed with other thoughts. This is not the void, however. I first shifted with this about four years ago, and have shifted with this method about 62 times that I consciously remember.
Step one: I can’t focus at all when I close my eyes and even if I do it in the day I take a nap. So for whatever reason I put my feet up on the wall. And I shifted the first time I tried. This helps me because even when I do nod off I wake up not long after. And I can actually focus on where I want to go. So I put my feet up usually with a blanket covering my legs and feet. It doesn’t have to be super high up where you’re uncomfortable. Just something even slightly raised helped me lots. I usually stay still because it puts my body to sleep and calms me. But you don’t have to if it’s too uncomfortable.
Step two: Oh, I’m usually listening to a playlist that reminds me of the place I’m shifting to or a moment or memory from my dr. That way I’m not scared by the silence when the sleep paralysis kicks in. Play it quietly so you don’t get annoyed and pick songs that aren’t too distracting. It should just kind of blend in the background. Then I start thinking about memories of my dr and moments. Usually in first person unless I’m looking at photos in my memories. If I nod off, I usually wake up from the unusual position and begin affirming naturally.
Step three: I usually forget I’m affirming and just shift immediately. I open my eyes and then I’m there. Or I get sleep paralysis where I affirm and think I’m there. And I wake up in my dr pretty soon after.
I’ve never failed with this method because I think it just fits well with me. It’s loosely structured and hits all my strengths in visualization, affirmations and so on. So I’d try this for three nights and if it doesn’t work. Apply what did and drop what didn’t. Anyways I’m so excited to shift for the summer to Okinawa. I think this one is just going to be a solo adventure with me and my five dogs. I might permashift from there but I don’t know yet. Does anyone else like to shift for holidays?
Happy shifting lovelies, you got this!

If you follow the steps thoroughly then you WILL get into the void state. + i also manifested it will get everyone into the void state. This challenge will put an end to your procrastination and will get you the most perfect mindset that you will result in you getting straight into the void.♡
♡ STEP 1: Set an official date for when you are going to get into the void state. Once you've set the date you CANNOT change it. Once the date is officially set, it's set. No mind changing, no procrastinating. No doubting. No putting it off. That is the day. You do not have to set a time, you can go in anytime during that day. But if you want to set a time, you 100% can, but once you've set a time you can't change it or remove it, just like you can't change the date.
♡ STEP 2: Live as though you are a master at the void state. Your mindset should be the exact same mindset as someone who has entered the void state many times and has gotten all of their desires. No need to stress over techniques. All you need to do is wake up in the morning, remember that you are a master at the void state and that you are going to get into the void state on your designated day. Feeling the happiness that the void state is so easy and that you are a master at it. Vaunting about how wonderful it is to be able to get into the void state whenever you want. Vaunting about how wonderful it is to have your desires.
Once your mind has been saturated and your official date arrives, you will get into the void state. Now go get your desires. You deserve them.♡

I love the “cubitum eamus?” exchange in the text of The Secret History, however I think Donna Tartt really elevated the line with her delivery of it in the audiobook. “Are you the new neanias?” is mocking and flirtatious the emphasis on “young man.” Richard’s response is almost gravelly. The “cubitum eamus?” is more serious. The almost singsongy tone she gives Francis on “Nothing.” It makes the whole scene read as lighter and more playful than it does strictly as words on the page. You can interpret it as flirtation even without knowing what the Latin means. It shows the fine distinction between Francis’ elitist disdain and genuine interest. Donna Tartt deserves more hype for the quality of her narration in the audiobook of her own novel. There is a reason it so frequently gets clipped out as audios.
what i currently can’t get over at the moment is what happened to camilla during the bacchanal.
not only did she remember becoming a deer, and the boys remember chasing a deer for hours, she also was found away from the group, her chiton clean, all except for her hair bloody red. and then she goes non verbal for three days.
not to mention early on in the book it’s shown how angry and violent henry and charles can get.
i just KNOW their bitchass did something 😭
Every time an attractive black or poc character gets introduced into Marvel, fans who are of the same race and/or culture as them has to deal with ignorant white authors taking that character and writing the most blatantly offensive and whitewashed fanfics.
There’s no reason why Namor is speaking Spanish instead of his own native language. It’s not that difficult to do your research and it’s clear y’all have no problem doing it when it came to Thor or Loki. Y’all don’t even bother hiding it yet get defensive when someone points it out. Since we’re on this topic, lets not act dumb about his dislike for white people and the LOW chance of him having a white partner like bffr…
Lastly, we need to be VERY careful on how Namor is written and not play into stereotypes that’ll harm his character (and also Tenoch himself) in the long run. Y’all don’t seem to know (nor care) how dangerous it is to have him being written as the “aggressor” pursuing the “naive and innocent” white girl.
