Wickedary 2020
"mentitlement" - male entitlement. It's shorter & in line with mansplaining and manspreading.
This episode originally aired live on KWTF Radio on October 28, 2014 and in it, we celebrate all things witchy, both from the past and the present! Explore the story of the one and only BABA...

From Wickedary
potted passion: species of pseudopassion: stunted, articificially contained, twisted, and warped version of a genuine passion; contorted, distorted passion, bent in unnatural directions, stopping at the wrong object.
Potted virtue: species of pseudovirtue: stifled and stifling habit which stops at the wrong object; limited and distorted virtue which functions to inhabit Original movement and Realization of one’s Final Cause. Examples: a: the “prudence” of a woman who stops herself from “going too far” b: the “courage” of Athena, who forgets and denies her Mother and Sisters, committing herself to fighting boys’ battles, to serving the masters’ purposes.
plastic feminism: elementary substitute/replacement for Original woman-identified bonding and movement; man-made pseudofeminism; rageless, humorless product of boredom: fashionable, feminine “feminism”.
plastic passion: species of pseudopassion: mad-made feeling which lacks natural Wildness; blob in inner space which pre-occupies and paralyzes its victims – predominantly women – draining energies, prevent E-motion, distracting from the pursuit of Pure Lust; free-floating feeling characterized by lack of specific and nameable causes, which functions to mask the agents of repression/oppression. Examples: guilt, anxiety, depression, hostility, bitterness, resentment, frustration, boredom, resignation, full-fillment.
According to that ill-logic [of the "going logic"], only evil is attractive and exciting, whereas the good is boring. This assumption/tenet is upheld not only by those who openly flaunt their practice of patriarchally defined "evil," but also - subliminally, at least - by those who pontificate and sermonize in support of the patriarchally defined "good." For their droning, grinding, mind-binding insistence upon "goodness" convincingly conveys that this is not very interesting. The good-peddlars are proficient propagandists for its opposite, and indeed they require this opposition of opposites to keep the snoolish sadosystem going.

I just started reading Mary Daly's Wickedary!
Yay! Really looking forward to getting into it this weekend. Couple bottles of Moscato, some Daly and some Fanon (sometimes I read dudez' books, considering their ideas with piles of salt and red-tinted gynocentric glasses). Good times.
So glad to actually have some time off. Feels like my mind-numbing, shit-paying job is leeching my life-force and what's left of my intellect away. I strive to maintain a healthy level of separatism in my day to day, but I'm too poor to be picky about my coworkers' sex, so of course I get covered with saccharine and inappropriate pet names by fuckers who go 'tee hee tee hee i forgot you asked me not ta' call ye that, darlin'. I mean, ma'am. tee hee. i call ever'body darlin'. GAH YOU PIECE OF SHIT COME HERE SO I CAN FUCKING SHOW YOU WHAT A 'DARLIN' I RLY AM SERIOUSLY HOW DIFFICULT IS IT TO USE A PERSON'S NAME IN PLACE OF RIDICULOUSLY CONDESCENDING FORCED ENDEARMENTS PRICKFACE ugh. AND DON'T YOU FUCKIN' TELL ME TO SMILE GODDAMNIT. PS YOUR JOKES FUCKIN' SUCK.
okay anyway. Sorry, suppressed rage rears its head at awkward moments.
But hopefully that illustrates how wound up my job's got me, right now. My Daly weekend should help me decompress. Muchly needed decompression. But anyway, with that said, I wanna say HEY new followers, thanks so much for tuning in. I'll post good stuff from the Wickedary as I read through. <3
LABRYS: The double ax... ancient symbol of gynocratic power...
the A-mazing Female Mind that cuts through the double binds and doublebinding words of patriarchy.
